The guy in the bakery which has just opened said that because the bread he sells has no sugar or preservatives or additives then diabetics, celiacs and people with IBS can eat it, no problem.
Well at least he declares his commercial interest unlike most researchers...

A woman I use to work with once said to me that she'd got her husband a bike for his birthday . That's nice I said . Yeah it is isn't it as I don't want my husband turning out like yours . If we weren't at work at the time I would of smashed her right in the face there and then.

One thing I have to ask this thread thou is.......
Why do you care what ignorant, insensitive people say?
Well said.

I have a thick skin, and never worry what other people say as it just bounces off of me. :meh:

I don’t much care what other people think ore even ehat they say; it’s not my concern.. My wife and my children fully support all my strange, weird and interesting dietary practices; everyone else is, quite frankly just making noises.

I've had three different doctors say that to me! I swear I could walk into a doctors surgery with my own head in a carrier bag & their response would be "Well that's weird - it's not as though you're overweight!". :banghead:

Good job I wasn't working there. She would have had double trouble. ;)

We're you not tempted to ask "if she was going with him on his rides. As you heard someone's husband used his last bike riding to cover up an affair"?
What would have given her something to ready worry about. Ha ha

No, but it was funny what happened to her later in the day. A customer got a large bottle of pop and as she put on the checkout she dropped it . The bottle exploded all over the mouth moo.
