One of the google ads on a page I just viewed on Junto was for wasabi peas.

These things are terrible.  Don't waste your money.  I bought some and when I found I hated them I gave them to my co-worker Ted.  He hated them too.  So he buried them in his yard to discourage his dog from digging under the fence.

He got fired a couple of weeks later so I never knew if it worked.

I like wasabi.  I like peas.  But dried peas coated in wasabi powder?  Blech.

Wasabi peas are fucking awesome.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

I think wasabi peas are one of the very few items we always have in stock at our house.

Bruce likes them too... but he only gets one or two a month. :)

and then you wound up having job difficulties... coincidence?

Could it be that wasabi peas are ONLY able to be enjoyed by the pure of heart, the same type of people who can only pet a unicorn?

I bet you, Santa and Satan have never been in the same room together!

Hitler probably hated Wasabi peas. Ditto with Charles Manson and Fightin' Joe Stalin.

Haha!  When I saw the topic, I was gonna say that Bish lubs 'em.  But he beat me to it.

I've never tried them.

Farking things burned my mouth.  So I roundhouse kicked them.
11:42:24 [Gamplayerx] I keep getting knocked up.
11:42:28 [Gamplayerx] Er. OUT!

The difference being that after Van Damme roundhouse kicks you in the face he makes passionate Belgian love to you.

Last night I watched part of some show on E! about who you'd want to be stranded on an island with (I had wicked insomnia.  I was desperate).

One round you had to choose between Segal, Van Damme, and Chuck Norris.

Chuck Norris all the way man.  Those other two are too annoying.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

Well, TECHNICALLY yes I'm having job difficulties after.  But Ted was fired in 2003.  Oddly enough, things got a LOT better at work after his departure.

QuoteCould it be that wasabi peas are ONLY able to be enjoyed by the pure of heart, the same type of people who can only pet a unicorn?

It's possible.

I keep forgetting to look up that short-story about the rhinocerous who's actually a unicorn and posting a link to it here.  Dammit.

Found it.

The story is called "Professor Gottesman and the Indian Rhinoceros", and it's very good.  You should all read it.

could you do a rewrite? maybe toss a few wasabi lines in there. i want to learn more about wasabi.

Beefy

Want to know about wasabi?  Go watch the Japanese dude eat the wasabi roll in that Japanese game show I posted a clip of.

/likes wasabi in small doses

Jessie

I don't think I've ever had wasabi, either.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

nishi

it's a kind of horseradish.

now that i think about it, it's actually horseradish with superpowers. like anime horseradish.
