THAT CHEESE THREAD THING
self | 11/06/2001 | self

Posted on 11/06/2001 7:20:10 PM PST by mjf

Okay, look, I've got processed cheese, both Swiss and American.

I've got string cheese. Mozzarella.

I've got shredded cheese, sharp cheddar, and well, I have a good relationship with cheese.

BUT, I'M WONDERING WHAT THE H**L IS GOING ON WITH CHEESE ON THIS FORUM!!!

If you are encumbered with knowledge about cheese, please link me up with the major cheese post. Thank you.

I don't know either, but I have a couple of theories:

1. It could signify that a thread (or original post) is or has gotten very "cheesy".
- or -
2. It could mean that the original poster (or the author of the article posted) sounded like he/she was just whining, so the respondents decided to throw in a little cheese with the "whine".

Now, about the moose (or is it mousse) you're on yer own.

"Now, about the moose (or is it mousse) you're on yer own."

You spelled it wrong. It should be "Møøse" (plural: Meese, Meeses, Møøsad).

I had a Møøse once, but it was unfaithful. It was a mother-lovin' beautiful Møøse until it met the Polish Polar Bears. My Møøse eloped with the head Bear .. the one with all of that nasty Russkie cheese .. and, last I saw them, they were on their way to Disneyland. And I DIDN'T RETURN THE RING ... it's honest-to-goodness 5k gold-tone plated with a .00001 carat diamonique solitaire. Pretty nifty, huh?

BUT I'M STILL STUCK WITH ALL OF THAT CHEESE FOR THE WEDDING RECEPTION!

JESUS: ...for their possession. How blest are those...
MR. CHEEKY: I don't know. I was too busy talking to Big Nose.
JESUS: ...who hunger and thirst to see...
MAN #1: I think it was 'Blessed are the cheesemakers.'
JESUS: ...right prevail.
MRS. GREGORY: Ahh, what's so special about the cheesemakers?
GREGORY: Well, obviously, this is not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

See ... even Jesus said "Blessed are the Cheese-Makers"!

Yes... I started the whole damned cheese thing.

You lit the fire, but there is an older thread where you got the match...;-)

I have enjoyed watching the cheese spread, but will now offer the point of origin as I remember it:

There was a heated and intriguing discussion going on between several FR intellectual heavyweights that had me scrambling for my dictionary.

The lost feeling I had reminded me of an old Letterman show where Billy Crystal was imitating Trevor Berbick (or Larry Holmes, one of those punch drunk old fighters).

Letterman asked him a boxing question and Crystal replied in a dumb voice with the non-sequiter 'I like eggs'.

My only post in the thread was to 'all' and it was 'I like cheese'.

I have always had the warmest feelings about cheese, with it's manifold textures, and smells, and tastes and colours...it is a miracle food, well not GOAT cheese, but most cheese.

I glurry with delight at the first waft of a good sharp cheddar (Granville Cheddar, or Cabot's Special Cheesner's Vintage). The way it melts on a burger, or macaroni, or a cookie tray full of black bean dip covered nachos. The brilliant savory counterpoint it plays against a slice of fresh apple, apple pie, a Tostitos chip, or a Walker Shortbread and a glass of chardonney.

Cheese is Life! Only last night did the most fair decarlo and I discover fathomless oceans of pleasure in the pungent combination of gorganzola with garlic pesto and roasted red peppers on an oven baked baguette.

It is no accident that cheese is referred to as the smell of God's feet. Cheese will make you a sinner AND a saint. It can cure cancer. It gives one courage. It makes the internal combustion engine possible. It invented jazz, but also, sadly, the French. All of the known elements are constructed with subcheese quantum particle/waves.

So stand with me, Mr. John Q. Public, Mr. Armchair General, Mr. Weekend Dad, and be proud. Puff out your belly and say: "I LIKE CHEESE!"
