Yeah, it's sad. I had a kedgeree addict friend who was busted trying to cross the border with a kilo and a half of kedgeree in her underwear. Damn kedgeree sniffing beagles.

Please don't go off-topic here. Kedgeree is a serious social problem in parts of Canada. Please use Crazy Yiuf's Corner for flippant stuff like this.

I beg to differ. Kedgeree is a mere shibboleth.

Actually they are still required on lateen-rigged poutines.

Is not the square-rigged poutine favoured yet, on account of its greater speed when running before the wind?
Re: Odd things sighted in dungeon.

Sunday, 23rd September 2012, 15:51by Jabberwocky
I have to agree with CI. I see the square-rigged poutine rather more than the lateen-rigged poutine. Of course the fore-and-aft rigged poutine is more common still.

If you want to smuggle gourmet foodstuffs, I hear the street value of a pound of excellent organic sauerkraut in Burlington VT is about 6.50 U.S. dollars.

You see a cavern hewn from rock. It is full of orcs and gold.
>kill orcs
You kill all the orcs in a whirlwind of spellcasting and melee. Corpses now litter the cavern.
>butch corpses
You cut all of the corpses up into chunks of somewhat edible meat.
>get gold
You pick up all the piles of gold. Mysteriously, your bag grows no heavier.

The following sequence from Colossal Cave suddenly makes sense.

With what? Your bare hands?

Congratulations! You have just vanquished a dragon with your bare hands! (Unbelievable, isn't it?)
The hero of Colossal Cave was clearly a Crawl monk with 27 UC.

The band. I know of the show only wikily, though I may have seen it when very young, as it seems to ring a dim dream bell.
