Cool Gruel!

Here's a thread about the king of all foods: Flavorless Gruel! I love Gruel! How much do you all like it?

It's a valid question that Tetsu has. I, myself, have never had gruel, but it's possible that he has, and that others have, and that he genuinely is interested in hearing their comments.

Since that possibility exists, it would be presumptuous to think he created this thread solely for attention. Who knows? Maybe the guy just really loves his gruel.

i'm all about it.

it is the champion of breakfast foods.

Porridge and Cream of Wheat and Grits and Oatmeal... you just can't go wrong. not really. unless some one poisonned it. But if you've got people poisonning your breakfast, you've prolly got bigger problems that choosing a delicious and healthy meal.

but yeah...
put molasses in or apple cinnamon or brown sugar or strawberries and cream or just plane sugar.... mmmm


but yeah. this is an odd topic.
*shrug*
but really no weirder than that lightbulb one and it had 2 pages of responses. so whatcha gonna do, ne?

Tokka, I was told to stop starting threads with deceptive suggestive names. I was not told to stop starting threads altogether so shut the f***n' bloody hell up!!!

And, yes Gruel is a type of low-quality porridge traditionally served to slaves and prisoners, but some of us have developed a fondness for it despite it's sad origins.

Yea um....no need for the berserkness...

I will wait and see if Krang actually said to stop making pointless threads, I just need an authoritive clarification...I thought I was positive that he said that before, we will just have to wait and see..

*comes back in, wearing the traditonal rabbit hunting mod garb*

Agreed.

Tokka, you are really not helping us moderators at all. Nor are you helping Krang. Especially when you yourself had been the butt of many problems yourself. Thus, please stop being a Taddle Tail, and let US make the judgement calls. We know what is really going on.

No please, stop being a judge, a troublemaker, and simply just enjoy yourself. Or leave this forum if it causes you so much stress.

To clairify, modern gruel is not the cheap-prisoner food it was centuries ago. It is now no different from any other porridge-type food.

Also, I'd like to point out that in General Discussion ALL threads are pointless. That is the point. Also, the name of this thread is very straight-forward, and there is no sexual or religiously offensive conotation of any kind (that's what I think they really had a problem with).

No, this forum definately has a point...that is to provide chat to people who want to share other interests besides tmnt....I just didn't see how gruel can be an interest..

Really, I justwanted to know what keeps your guys' houses lighted up.

Hm, I like the oatmeal that had those disolving dinosaur eggs, and they turned in to candy dinosaurs.

Look, if some people think CrossRoads was a good movie, then I am perfectly willing to believe that there are others out there who share Tetsu's love of gruel. The gruel thing is a lot easier to believe.
