Actually, in all fairness, re-reading his post, he did specifically
mention 3 cuts of meat and ribs weren't one of them. g


True, but the question failed to follow fundamental grammatical rules. The
phrasing of that question would never pass muster in a real exam.

But, I don't think it necessitated such a defensive posture on his part.

Who cares?

I like to smoke ham hocks, too. Feel free to attack me for that, O.P.

I didn't know posting to a NG requires the poster to pretend they are in
a writing exam.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to take a refresher course to
update/improve my writing skills..

Whenever the OP starts calling people "pieces of shit", "assholes",
and "****wad trolls" for not interpreting his question to his liking
then he opens himself up criticism from every possible angle.

And that includes the way he phrased the question that caused him to
get so bent out of shape so easily in the first place. Marty is just
a blowhard looking for trouble.

Did you notice that now he said wanted opinions on "bone-in/out" as
his original motive for asking the question, yet that was not a part
of the original question either? He doesn't even know what he posted
or why.

I don't like the name calling. But hell, it's just a ng. It's not
directed towards me, so I ignore it. I realize you and he will never
meet for a beer and/or barbecue..

If someone starts calling me names, call me a wuss, but I will just
ignore it and move on. I have many in my KF. But that's been reserved
for the spammer jerks. Not necessarily the people I just don't care for
the way they communicate, but do sometimes provide some conversation to
the topic..

ObBBQ: I'm having Pittsburgh-style "Barbecues" this afternoon.
Pictures in ABF later.

I think the barbecue ng writing instructor will mark you down for the
incorrect use of "Barbecues".

That's what they're called in Pittsburgh. I put the word in quotes
like that so nobody could cry foul.

I kinda thought in Pittsburgh, they had different rules. But I didn't
want to "jump to a wrong conclusion" ;-)
