Read the article I referenced carefully. Note that the writer makes a major point of differentiating PEANUTS per se from PEANUT BUTTER.

Chopping and blending seems to change the situation.

BTW, the article goes on to describe how most peanut allergy folks "grow out of it" or actually develop sufficient resistance to peanuts (and peanut byproducts) to withstand casual events.

Well, since you responded to me initially, I can only assume you’re talking to me.

Not sure at all what fat chicks or attractiveness has to do with a JOKE (hence the ;P, not my fault if you’re not up on current emoticons) which was clearly absurdist humor (identicals being abominations in the sight of the Lord? come on!) or with being an ass even. Not every thread is deadly serious and I thought my intent was clear. If I wanted to stay true to my joke, I really shouldn’t have even used an emoticon and just let people figure it out (or not, if they’re ignoramuses.)

As for who or what is unattractive, I’m pretty confident in my own appearance. Besides, I think it’s ridiculous that you have some notion in your head that only libertarians are ugly, become lonely losers or ‘act like asses.’ You’re proof that ‘regular’ conservatives can, also.

Fine. You call it humor ... if you read other similar threads you will find sincere comments making the same point.

My only question is, how did I know you were a libertarian after reading a single “humorous” post?

As for the attractiveness of libertarians, I can only speak about those I’ve known.
