Recipe For a Discussion / myLot

Boston, Massachusetts

September 18, 2015 8:53pm CST

1 fresh topic sentence (medium length) 1 cup of suspense 1 cup of controversy 3 cups substance 2 tbsp spice 1 leading question Mix all together and let flow over the keyboard. Do not add too much spice if you don’t want to see your discussion fall to the censors. Click on the Pencil icon and pour your discussion onto the page. Hit Start Discussion After your discussion has had time to rise, comments will begin to appear. Using a dash of tact and a pinch of discretion, answer the comments. When directions are closely followed, comments will double in size.

Not 1/. something said umpteen times already 1 cup of sloppy sentencing 2/. 1 cup of sarcastic inflammatory asides 3/. 3 cups of references to your products 4/. 2 tbsp of requests for visits to your own pages - served half baked

@Rollo1 Oh, you neek! I couldn't have said it better myself! (In case you were wondering, a 'neek' is a made-up word and is highly complimentary, in spite of its apparent similarities to 'geek' and 'nerd'!)

Unique is a lovely compliment, truly. One can aspire to nothing greater than being unique.

@owlwings I might be both geek and nerd, but I must be me.

@owstalaga I agree with @owlwings Everyone has to make their own, because your individual creativity is the secret ingredient (darn, I should have put that on the list).

Well, depending on the spices used, it can be very tasty or distasteful. But everyone has their own tastes, so the more we bake the better!

I go light on spice and controversy, but still it is a terrific recipe.

I try to control myself. The old myLot had many more controversial posts. I get sucked in so easily.

Sounds like the Macbeth witches brew - was that your inspiration Anja. I think you didn't realise it was me when I followed you the other week, for some reason I can't shed my ancient user name of thea09.

I did see that it as you, but you were here for a brief moment and then gone. Can't change the old usernames, unfortunately.

@thea09 Another life, a long time gone. I probably should have started fresh with a new account, but I am too lazy.
