Also... Do you guys get cold glass bottles of Milk delivered to your door? If not that, I'd pick that over my other thing I listed about moving to America.

Do you guys get fresh 7.62x51mm ammunition delivered to your door? If not that, I'd pick that over my other thing I listed about moving to England.

And yes on the milk, but I think it went out of fashion 60 years ago when refrigerators became available to the common man. 🙂

I thought this was about stuff we can't get...
 
This thread took WAY too long to turn to the fact that we get the shaft here in the US as far as automobiles are concerned because soccer moms and comb over fucktards set the precedent on what Americans "want" in a car.

If we even had half the diesels that are available in the rest of the world life would be good. They claim emissions are the reason, but I think they are worried too many veggie oil converts will scoop them up and run on the abundance of fryer oil here. /logic break

I saw coconut water in 12 or 24 packs at Costco last time I was there.

For me, I would go with a sparkling mineral water called Theodora Quelle. I was in Hungary for a couple weeks several years ago, and I could never drink enough of the stuff. I haven't even come across something close to it.

Fresh is way better than can stuffs., and we have coconut water in cans here as well.

Nope. For some reason auto manufacturers think we don't like hatchbacks in the USA I guess.

I would've bought the hatchback version instead of the sedan, if I could 🙁

It's probably like diesel cars. Nobody can make enough of them when they actually make them, gas stations are adding diesel pumps left and right, but the total sales are small enough that bean counters still think people in the US don't want them.

Mine: unpasteurized dairy.

Carrot halwa

I've not heard of it, before now, but ghee would be only problem ingredient, and sweated butter makes a good sub for it, IMO. Want to guess what I'm making tomorrow? 🙂
 
Halwa is one of my favorite sweet, I grew up eating loads of ghee.. I however prefer ghee made from Buffalo's milk instead of cow's.

I have made this dish many times, the only thing going against it is the preparation time. Takes about 2 hours including grating. :/

Relatively. I also don't read the names of people I'm responding to, so making links between what people have said before and what they've just said is difficult.

There are no words for how much of a fucking douchebag you are.

You took the words from my mouth GA.

FTRecord H9K: since you are new to intertubing, i'll let you in on a secret... Actually trying to get to know the people you are responding to is the fucking point of a community like this;

Honestly hal, other than being all sorts of gay, do you have some particular problem, maybe something that has been left undiagnosed in your brain? a tumor, a genetic defect...

Is this you?

No.. no.. that's an insult to those with down-syndrome.

He clearly meant:

D/B approches the USA as the ratio of cereal to milk approaches 0 where,

B=D/2+M/2, D=GD1/2+GM1/2, and M=GD2/2+GM2/2 --> D/((GD1/2+GM1/2)/2+(GD2/2+GM2/2/2)) --> 1/((GD1/2+GM1/2)/2+(GD2/2+GM2/2/2))/D

Expressed commonly as: M/D = D --> M= DD

The equation was first used to show the effects of exponentially increasing foreign cereal value in the presence of an abundant supply of milk, even if the supply is only perceived, but has since been applied successfully a wide variety of heretofore mysterious mammary phenomena, such as the hypnotic effects of Bounce (both Vertical Wave, and Radiometric— sometimes confused with Twirl), Twirl, Cleavage (see; Humpton's 2006 opposed inward lateral force hypothesis), Horizontal Droop, and Horizontal Pooling (the Perkins effects). Some mammematicians even claim they are close to nailing Jiggle, though skeptics remain. “Jiggle will probably have to wait for datasets from the Large Manual Playtex Elasticity Survey” or LuMPES, not due out until January 2012, “if we ever get it; Maidenform was just too small" (in reference to the landmark 1986 Maidenform anti-gravity measurements, which lead directly to the MAM qualitative subjectivity index).

Scientists were previously optimistic about having those numbers in time for the Obama inauguration in 2009, but a series of unexpected leaks hampered the tests for months. “We hoped to publish the first major scientific paper of the presidency, but we were thwarted by the overlooked, Inexperienced Observer Paradox.”

It literally worked out in the end though, as the President informed them that he was more sympathetic to, DatAZZ research. “Yeah, we were a little let down, but once we got back in the lab, and new data from these equations started to pop, we knew we had to thrust on!”

“We’re really excited about our Jiggle research. We know once we pin down jiggle it opens up kinds of tangenital avenues like finally quantifying Glisten, and Opalescence where the variances in areola symmetry and non-optimal match have stymied mammary science for centuries.

So your question should have been the obvious, ‘Pics?’
