What happened to actual discussion ?

Lol

 

Actually a peanut is a legume (grows underground)...therefore it is technically not a nut.

Secondly, I was quoting a Mike Myers SNL skit and I wasn't really looking for an answer to the question

 

...and some members get each other and some don't. Just like real life.

 

I think you are incorrect , I back stewartx on this particular matter

 

How about this:

"Your parents do not owe you entertainment. Your city or village does not owe you recreational facilities. The world does not owe you a living. ... Grow up; quit being a crybaby. Get out of your dream world and develop a backbone, not a wishbone, and start acting like a man or a lady."

Judge Philip B. Gilliam of Denver, Colorado

exactly...and my life partner just told me to apologize to OZ so.....im sorry ok

 

This is what we need. More sensitivity. And crying. No, wait, we already have enough crying.

 

I get enough of that from my 2 year old... haha

 

Accepted

 

Thanks

 

Actually, he's right about the peanut, in the legume/bean family, being grown underground. Of course, we're talking about common, not scientific, names here. If that were not the case, we'd be calling it a "arachis hypogaea" (at least that's the name given by Wikipedia - lol). Instead, it's commonly called a nut, with my explanation of the resulting common name likely correct.

 

I know the peanut is a legume

I withdraw my backing

 

It's a legume so botanically it's not a nut.

In the culinary sense, I guess it would be considered a nut.


I'm glad we're discussing something

Edit: Didn't read your last post

 

Did you folks even sleep

 

they make good peanut butter

 

I carry an extra Rotopax of stupid for real-life emergency use.

 

Great input

 

OMG, this was a serious thread? Sorry, wasn't paying attention
