I had to pick up some stuff at the butcher/deli down the road from me.
While I was checking out I grabbed some bananas. The cashier looked a little confused and then started counting them and said something about them being 50 cents apiece. I looked at her puzzled and then told her they are bananas. They are sold by the pound. Doh. A hand of 6 bananas would have been $3. |

If they use a scale, they are selling it by the pound. Learn the difference before you make snide remarks. Bananas are usually sold by the pound too, but some places will sell by the individual piece. Like one banana for 75 cents versus 50 cents a pound. |

You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the total blue.

Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2 years. Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away. There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo. And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're manic depressive mixed with habitual liar. Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles. -sw |

By bananas? How could she have looked up the per piece price if they were not sold that way?

Someone had to go to the deli and check the price sign. Actually, she apologized to me. When I told her the bananas are sold by the pound there, she checked again and then weighed them. They are sold by the pound there. There are places were bananas as sold by the piece, and any I have seen sell them singly, not in bunches. |

What I found amazing is how many people sided with the clerk yet have never been to the store and never saw how they were priced. I can see selling by the piece at a lunch counter, but I've never seen it that way in a grocery store. |

The Wall Street veteran whose multi-million dollar mansion hosted the first fundraiser for Jeb Bush’s newly created political action committee held a top job at an insurance brokerage that was sued by the state of Florida for swindling clients while Bush was governor. Charles Davis was the vice chairman of Marsh and McLennan Companies during much of the time that Florida officials accused the company of taking kickbacks and rigging bids. Now the Democrats who uncovered the company’s legal troubles are using them to question Bush’s judgment at time when he’s beginning to look more and more like a presidential candidate. “Why would you ever go back to somebody who has ripped you off,” asked Ben Ray, spokesman for the Democratic Super PAC American Bridge. |

Don't you feel even the least bit embarrassed to be in agreement with Julie and the other resident idiot? She checked... the were priced by the pound. |

The going rate for bananas in Canada is about $.78/lb. Why would a deli/butcher, who are NOT in the produce business and don't get bulk produce discounts from distributors, carry them for $.28/less per pound than the regular grocery stores? It just doesn't add up, Davey. |

You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the total blue. After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3 years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY MOVING IN WITH YOU? That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2 years. Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away. There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo. And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're manic depressive mixed with habitual liar. Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles. -sw |
