The Consequence of Subterfuge

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Many times in my life have I been confronted with a plate full of unassuming, succulent chocolate cookies, and each time they have silently begged me to partake of their spotty molten goodness.

I am too much the lady not to oblige. I select my fare carefully, choosing only the most worthy biscuit, teasing them with my fickle nature as they do me with their sweet enticements. We dance, I lead; at last, eager with anticipation, I pluck the lucky winner from the plate and take a bite...

...only to find that the cookie is an imposter. Raisins masquerading as chocolate chips! Oatmeal disguised as the other non-chocolate parts of a chocolate chip cookie!

The subterfuge of those wrinkley little ex-grapes offends me. I do not see the point of cookies without chocolate in them.

I shall have my revenge.

Well I got taken to this very posh restaurant (where they had bottles of wine on the wine list for £300 :eek: ) and we came out and had coffee and there were these little finger bowls with things in that I thought were raisins. I thought it must be some bizarre posh thing that I didn't know about (coffee and raisins after dinner). But what I thought were raisins was actually posh expensive brown sugar which looked like those little shingle stones you get on the beach - and I just stopped myself from taking a handful of them before it was too late! :oops: :lol:

No the best he could do was a donut on Brighton Pier which promptly got stolen by a large and dangerous seagull :(

Grapes should always be made into fine wine, not piffling wrinkly bastard raisins.
;D

My sympathies are with you, dear.

At last! People who share my hatred of dried fruit :D That covers raisins, currants, sultanat, prunes, dates etc. etc. The only time I find dried grapes edible is in a clootie dumpling, probably because it's been boiled for so long, the fruit has turned back into grapes. It's bad enough when raisins appear in otherwise innocent looking cheesecake and carrot cake, but it should under no circumstances be be put into chocolate :evil:

I believe raisins are absolutely evil - along with their squidgy cousins, currants and sultanas. Many a time I've had to turn down granny's cake, or a delicious-sounding korma, because of their pernicious presence. I just can't abide them, and I'm glad to know I'm not, perhaps, the only one. The only time this gives me real trouble is at Christmas, when there is something just so...well...Christmassy about mince pies, and I just have to have one. I just pretend I'm eating something else, which is very difficult. Perhaps women are better at this.

:lol: Si, that's cruel...

... I must confess though, I am rather partial to dried banana... :oops:

I still want to join the campaign though, purely because of bad chicken curry and the HORROR that is DRIED APRICOTS.
