In my never ending quest to learn how to express myself in the english language effectively, I am compelled to ask...WHAT on Earth did I say to lead you to that ridiculous conclusion?

You said, after describing the commercial in your post:

"I'll have to check to see if there are other brands of mayo and catsup...ya think?"

OK... since you said it, I'll let you tell me what it means.

"I'll have to check to see if there are other brands of mayo and catsup...ya think?"

"OK... since you said it, I'll let you tell me what it means."

What it means is, I will see if I can buy mayo and catsup from another company...like Best Foods or somebody. The "ya think" part is a little sarcasm meaning "or is Heinz the only brand available?" I presume that most folks know it isn't.

I also do not patronize Hormel because the head of that company is a gay activist. Klinton actually appointed him ambassador to some small european country.

How you might think that sentence conveys an idea of my view of the homosexual life style leaves me puzzled.
