Pickles on the Side

What Your Burger Says About You

You are very gluttonous. Even if you're full, you'll still clear your plate. You are the ultimate foodie. You're picky about food quality, but you're not picky about eating strange things. You tend to gravitate toward strong, pungent foods. Even if it means having bad breath! You are straightforward, honest, and ambitious. You tend to be direct about what you want when it comes to food.

What Does Your Burger Say About You?

Y'know, every now 'n then they get it right on the nose. Especially the part about me being a glutton, how I'm picky and especially about having bad breath.

I knew it was coming; figured it would've been a couple yrs. ago.

Fair to Middling

I entered a chat room and was asked "How are you?" and I replied "Fair to middlin' ". Someone interjected "That's spelled "MIDLAND"." and I disagreed. Then the argument began.

The one who disagreed with me said it was a phrase from WWII; there were quite a few aviation bases here in Texas during the war and pilots, when asked how the weather was, would say "It's fair to Midland."

-sigh-

What the term means is that something is between good and bad.

Just like this blog.
