Hey Lynx, what's your McDonald's? (I just realized there's an apostrophe in McDonald's)
Yea curious he asks everyone else but fails to tell us his own.
I thought it was video games, but I could be wrong.
 
Please enrol me in this fishing school where I learn how to be gracious and catch fish at the same time. If its on a boat I don't want to be sea-sick.

I am used to making my own parties where I can cry if I want to.

It will be interesting to see if I can hack a swanky party, maybe it will be like Cinderella at the ball?

I have been to a few balls, but there were no handsome princes there. They were just school or university ones, basically where you where fancy dress/ball gown, have makeup and hair done and heels but it just ends up dancing like you'd do at a night club anyway. lol
Actually I do not get the chance to go to many, I went to a library conference where they had one, and on a cruise they were meant to have one, but I don't remember too much about that. I really don't do small talk. They try to do it at church (its like the church apres ski or the cup of tea and biscuit after the service) and it's an epic fail for me.

I'm at yum cha where sometimes I just eat instead of what you meant to do, talk loudly and fuss about the food and argue about paying the bill. But thats just enjoying yourself.

At high teas, I don't know where to put my handbag and what you are supposed to talk about other than my word, this scone is delicious! Sorry, I don't have any gossip about anyone.

Oh wow I just realized I never said what mine is in that other thread. Sorry about that.

Hmm... what is the thing I enjoy that is not good at all for me...

Well that's easy. Cheese! I'm allergic to dairy. Not lactose intolerant, just allergic, like sneezing and sniffles. But I still eat cheese, often, regularly, lots. Totally worth it.

It has to be good cheese though. Regular American is just not worth it. Stilton, havarti, brie, mascarpone... Mmmmmm!

Great. Now I'm all hungry again.

I go out of my way to make a point to mention what mine is in every threat I start.

And I did in the McDonald's thread too. I just now looked it up.

His McDonald's is doing a little cosplay and going to Finishing School incognito. He's going to be part of our team. He's scoping out some schools for us.

Who's up for us sponsoring Lanolin to go to Finishing School?

I am not sufficiently interested in any fictional character to go cosplay as it.

Although in a strictly costume sense, the main character from "Dust: an elysian tale" would be nice.

Huh

McDonalds is an allergy?
I have a friend who's gluten and soy intolerant, and we have to be careful when she goes out and eats, because many foods can make her sick. I don't think she deliberately makes herself sick, but now she knows what it is, she avoids those foods, but it's hard as there is gluten and soy in most everything. Even chocolate.
I don't know that she scoffs a lot of chocolate tofu burgers or if that's her most favourite food...

A cousin of mine says she's allergic to pet hair, but she has a bunny rabbit and loves horses and goes out riding. She's also allergic to shellfish and crustaceans but I think she avoids them and they aren't her favourite food.

I am allergic to some pollens, I get hayfever - I'm Miss Sneezy when its that time of year. But I love gardening, and being outdoors still mowed lawns even though my nose was running the whole time. Really its mostly just privet but I don't deliberately plant privet.

I wouldn't call these guilty pleasures they are just unfortunate allergies...I mean cheese and milk is in a LOT of foods its not like you set out to make yourself sick. Its also tasty. You just need to find vegan cheese or alternative milks.

So its this like another one of your anallergies?
How can finishing school, or posting about it, be my allergy?
 
I don't think it's possible to slurp a cup of tea, the way your supposed to slurp noodles or soda/fizzy through a straw in a paper cup and make those slurping noises. Also, I've never heard of anyone belching/burping after a cup of tea cos they drank it too fast.

You can slurp soup though, and the proper thing to do if you are eating it from a spoon is to spoon it away from you apparently, if you are using those silly metal soup spoons because you can't find a proper bowl that fits in your hands and a china soup spoon.

European food is so messy. Even the tea cup handles are too tiny to be of any use, and they need saucers.
Chinese tea just have the little handless cups that don't need saucers, because nobody spills their tea drinking out of those. They are not small shotglasses though, which you are meant to drink liquor out of in one gulp.
 
This is what might happen if I went to the Dust Elysian Fields Finishing School for Allergic Bunnies.

I'd be sipping tea, careful not to spill it on myself or the saucer.

But then when the biscuits come round, I'd dunk them in my tea, cos that is what you are supposed to do...or so I think. But no! I am supposed to not eat them with my bare hands! I'm supposed to cut them up with a knife and fork!

I'd be expelled, for putting crumbs all over the tablecloth. I'm hungry because my diet is only tea and biscuits, so I go to the nearest McDonalds and order myself a happy meal and read a book.
 
Sculpt is a secret wizard.
It's amazing what you can find on the internet.

Like I thought Lynx actually drew all those stick cartoons he puts up. But no, he admitted he did not. If he had, I'd be like what, a wildcat that has psychic comic powers? How's that even possible? I've never seen a cat draw a comic strip.

I've seen cats IN comic strips.

Lynx was allergic to McDonald's until Finishing School cured him. Now he's just allergic to dairy and frogs.
 
I do support my local KFCs. There's 3 of them I go to in my area.

Colonel Sanders taught me how to eat fried chicken by licking my fingers.
