Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Noreen Date: 10 May 01 - 07:07 PM Not fair! I'm feeling chocolatey now and there's not a crumb of it in the house... Anyone got any going spare? Even blue eminems would do... |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Mark Cohen Date: 10 May 01 - 07:01 PM Red blueberries are yellow when they're green. (At least that's true in the Olympic mountains, home of the Olympic marmot, which is better than the vegemot.) How come nobody mentioned that all eminems are really WHITE?? Just suck on 'em for a while and you'll see. (There, that oughta shake up the MTV contingent....) Or the best thing to do with them, which is to toss one up in the air and open your mouth wide. This is guaranteed to make your dentist, or Dr. Heimlich, very happy. Aloha, Mark |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Burke Date: 10 May 01 - 06:56 PM I have been researching the topic under discussion here & have come to realize that I have not only missed knowing about Blue eminem's; but I am have been sadly unaware of many devices that would surely make my life much happier.

Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: catspaw49 Date: 10 May 01 - 06:33 PM Sinsull asked: Aren't any of you disturbed by the fact that the TV M&Ms have taken to eating each other? I can't decide whether it's cannibalism or incest. Well Sins, I think its all a matter of what parts are being eaten and by whom. This brings up the point also being pursued here, and that is, how do you tell the sex of an M&M? Surely the M and the M do not mean that they are all male or we would have run out many years ago. I think this may explain the problem encountered by Frank and I above. Some of them are W&W (women/female) and others are M&M (man/male). This probably holds true for all the colors except tan which, being 3-D farts, are sexless. Spaw |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: GUEST Date: 10 May 01 - 06:12 PM well i think eminem is a bit twisted but he does hav a less harsh side-the only m+m u should eat r the brown 1's cos they r more chocolately than the rest but u should just eat reeses wot-is-its dorrie xxx |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Clinton Hammond Date: 10 May 01 - 06:10 PM MT... not gonna happen.. I have no desire to breed at all... and even if it did, who am I to dictate to my kid how to dress... especially in this day and age... |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Homeless Date: 10 May 01 - 06:07 PM MMario - You do understand why green dresses like a hooker, don't you? Heck, even school kids know what green eminems do to ya. if blueberries aren't blue, and blackberries aren't black, what color aren't raspberries? Does anyone remember the mint eminems they put out (quite) a few years ago called Royals? Those had all of todays variations beat, hands down. Never seen rules for eating eminems (other than save the green ones for your girlfriend), but I have seen a contest... ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them cracks and splinters. That is the "loser," and I eat the inferior one immediately. The winner gets to go another round. I have found that, in general, a couple colors appear to be tougher, but until I am able to confirm my initial results, I cannot disclose which colors these are. My results are quite consistent with respect to the new blue M&Ms which appear to be genetically inferior, and I hypothesize that the blue M&Ms as a race cannot survive long in the intense theatre of competition that is the modern candy and snack-food world. Occasionally I will get a mutation--a candy that is misshapen, or pointier, or flatter than the rest. Almost invariably this proves to be a weakness, but on very rare occasions it gives the candy strength. In this way, the species continues to adapt to its environment. When I reach the end of the pack, I am left with one M&M, the strongest of the herd. Since it would make no sense to eat this one as well, I pack it neatly in an envelope and send it to M&M Mars, A Division of Mars, Inc., Hackettstown, NJ, 17840-1503 USA, along with a 3"x5" card reading, "Please use this M&M for breeding purposes." This week they wrote back to thank me, and sent me a coupon for a free half-pound bag of plain M&Ms. I consider this "grant money." I have set aside the weekend for a grand tournament. From a field of hundreds, we will discover the True Champion. There can be only one. ----- Just a personal note--in my opinion, the assumptions underlying this experiment have not been thought out adequately. Is it ethically--or edibly--desirable to breed into this experimental model the single "hard coat" trait? What about selecting for higher chocolate content? Or less runnyness of exterior dyes when the candies are placed on top of ice cream sundaes? |

Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: UB Ed Date: 10 May 01 - 05:25 PM Oh, OK. That certainly clears things up for me! I'm generally putting Meyers Rum and coco lopez in a blender (lots of ice; lots of rum) with about 6 oz of pineapple juice. But to each his own. Ed |

Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: UB Ed Date: 10 May 01 - 05:15 PM Alex, why are you putting birdies in the blender? |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Kim C Date: 10 May 01 - 05:15 PM Well, okay, but they don't call em PURPLEberries, or ONLYBLUEONTHEOUTSIDEberries! ;-) For that matter, blackberries aren't really black, either. What do you two have against blue food, anyhow? I always liked those red white and blue popsicles that turn your tongue all manner of funny colors. Besides, I think the Crispy Blue Imminnemm on the commercials is kinda cute. Especially when he grabs the yellow one's tongue. |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: MMario Date: 10 May 01 - 05:06 PM two items the professor said were always brought up to refute that statement - one was blueberries - which I have explained above - the other item would be scallops - because of their pretty blue eyes. But the actual reason there is no blue food is that virtualy all the (non-mineral) "blue" seen in nature is NOT due to pigment - but rather refraction, reflection, scattering, etc and the substances are actually of another color. |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 05:04 PM Do a search on Google for "What makes blueberries blue" -- it's a PIGMENT, anthocyanin. A blue pigment. Also makes some flowers blue. Alex |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 05:02 PM I thought it was some substance on the skin like dust. Blue dust. Like grape "must", only on blueberries. I know some colours are optical illusions. Some bird feathers, if you put them in a blender, end up being a different colour, because it's a refraction illusion. I dind't think blueberry dust was that way. I admit I could be wrong. Alex |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: MMario Date: 10 May 01 - 05:00 PM Nope - it's an optical illusion. touch it and it goes away. *grin* actually it is called "bloom" and isn't even skin deep. it is a very thin layer on top of the skin of the fruit. but under that, nope, the stuff isn't blue. Some plums have a blue bloom as well - but same thing - it actually wipes off; and if the fruit is handled much at all before cunsumption, let alone cooked, it won't be blue. According to the nutrition courses I took there is no naturally occuring blue food. Leastwise that's what they taught me at that place I'm still paying for 25 years later. |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 04:53 PM Mmario, you need to get around more. We have blueberries here that are BLUE on the outside. But just the outside. alex |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: MMario Date: 10 May 01 - 04:51 PM no - blueberries are a purple-black on the outside and red on the inside - except some are greenish on the inside. but they aren't blue. Blueish-purple sometimes, but not BLUE |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 04:51 PM Blueberries are by and large purple. They're bluish on the outside. But that's only skin-deep. Alex |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Kim C Date: 10 May 01 - 04:48 PM GUEST, you are very late on the ball. We had a philosophical and lively discussion about Eminem, which I started, back when he performed on the Grammys or whatever it was, and caused a huge fuss. Does anyone know the blue clicky for that? Alex, blueberries are blue. And about to be in season! Yahooooo!!! Man, I love fresh blueberries. One day at the grocery we got a carton and I had eaten nearly the whole thing before we got home. We only live 2 miles from the grocery. I never sorted my imminemms or my Smarties by color. Does that make me a freak? |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 04:42 PM Only you, Spaw, would link eminems with farts. BLUE FOOD IS FOR ARTIFICIAL PEOPLE! Alex |

Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Clinton Hammond Date: 10 May 01 - 04:12 PM UB ed, you say "dressed like a hooker" like it's a bad thing??? |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 04:12 PM MMario -- I was an only child so I couldn't barter tan eminems for anything. I just liked the color. And the fact it was rare. Speaking of rappers have you noticed the newer ones are a lot harder to tear? The earlier ones were just paper but the newer ones have some sort of polymer layer, and only tear in one direction. Very obnoxious. Alex |

Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: MMario Date: 10 May 01 - 04:04 PM not only did we always save the tan ones for last (they were RARE; but they were negotiable currency in our household. You could get daily chores done by others for a single tan eminem. |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: UB Ed Date: 10 May 01 - 04:03 PM Someone once mentioned Brittany Spears dressing like a hooker... |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: mousethief Date: 10 May 01 - 04:01 PM You saved the tan ones for last too? I thought I was the only one! I loved the tan ones! No food should be blue. That's just wrong. We have a cow-orker here that collects Green stuff. Mugs, plush dolls, little statuette thingees. I got her a little car at a thrift shop once which was driven by Green. So what if she dresses like a hooker, as long as she melts in your mouth and not in your hand? Alex |
Subject: RE: Eminem Rules From: Burke Date: 10 May 01 - 03:58 PM Blue eminem's? Have I forgotten something or is this something new since the last time I had any. The last time I had a bag of eminem's was... I forget! I am loosing my mind. I always saved to brown ones for last. Or maybe I ate them first. I liked 'em best anyway. |
