TEST PIE #1...Who is YOUR Recipe Guru???
My daughter (12) and I just put our test Pumpkin Pie in the oven. We are "pie makers" already - it's a family thing (gotta beat Grandma's pie!) Trying a modification to our old recipe based upon hints from America's Test Kitchen. Also a *huge* fan of Alton Brown. Both give scientific reason WHY they do what they do - appeals to the Engineer in me. Who is YOUR favorite recipe source?

I'm gonna have to +1 Cachimbo on this one. Threads seem to fall into one of several categories with me:

(a) Intriguing/Enjoyable - adds something positive to the forum
(b) Boring - might add something positve, but just not for me
(c) Useless - adds nothing and is as exciting as watching a game played by 1 player
(d) Wasteful - leaves this forum with a deficit

This one is definitely a (d) thread.
Yellowjacket (835 D(B))

Oh, I thought it was an entertaining, if crude, parallel to the other 'voting' threads we've seen lately. I bet you voted, didn't you ninja? Despite your harsh words, you couldn't help yourself.

Actually I was writing a paper recently about sexuality and the problems in research into sexuality, and I came across two great survey results. Apparently, according to a survey in the late 80s which said that something like 70% of boys had lost their virginity before the age of 15, and yet less than 30% of girls had lost their virginity by the same time. Either someone was lying or 30% of girls are very, very busy. Even better another survey had found that fully 86% of men reported that they had larger than average penises. I didn't end up using these factoids so I don't have a citation with which to remember where I found them, and I haven't found them again. But they made me laugh endlessly. And aptly illustrated the problem with self-reported surveys.

"It was a "joke" Maffialligator. And a pretty good one by my standards." - Having seen you make a much better joke above, I disagree. But fair enough. And I am glad I didn't have to reopen THAT debate.

This thread is sexist, or something.

I have a smaller than average penis. I apparently have a greater than average skill in using it. Its been awhile since i had independent confirmation of that, of course.
Cachimbo (1181 D)
19 Nov 11 UTC
@ Strat:

"You either get to have a big penis, or you get to have anal sex. You can't have both."

(Heard at 1:10 into this funny video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T13nA-IJ9xg
My wife and I have listened to many if not most of her videos. Funny, witty and a great way to open the floor to interesting conversations... and more!)

ROFL cachimbo.

I agree Mafia... when I tabulate the final results I'll round down by an inch, though hopefully the complete anonymity (unless the mods are spying omg!) will enforce some degree of truthiness.

Strategos: small penis but huge BALLS.
Cachimbo (1181 D)

@ Yellow: I doubt many, if any, have voted truthfully at all. I know I haven't.

In light of all the new uses for the +1 feature, should it also bump a thread? The con would be that the front page would have threads without new replies while new replies might be buried. Thoughts?
