Fruit

My radical new theory.

Apples are in fact nicer than oranges (not including satsumas).

There.

This is just the sort of ill-advised blue sky reactionary left wing rhetoric I've come to expect from you John. Your argument can not possibly hold any water whatsoever, and your posing of it as any kind of theory is nothing more than intellectual posturing.

I'm sick and tired of all this anti-citrus fruit prejudice plaguing the internet. I'm all for freedom of speech and everything, but think of the children for christ's sake!

Don't let Mr Del Monte hear you say this stuff John, else there'll be hell to pay.

An interesting theory but, like quantum mechanics, incomplete. How are you going to marry this to banana-theory, or even make a GUTF (grand unified theory of fruit)?

And what would all those Christmas Bazaars do without the cloves stuck in oranges. Never have been sure where you are supposed to hang them!

Oh there you go bringing class into it again.

You are wrong. It's a simple mistake to make, but it is an absolute fact which many generations have been sure of: Oranges are Gods own fruit - and are therefore the best. Did Adam take a bite out of a poisoned Orange and be banned from the garden of eden? Did he bugger. That would have been blasphemy against the God of fruit. Learn your lesson well, and don't blaspheme.

Mind you, with a bit of dramatic peeling they could have padded out genesis for a few more pages. Personally I thought it was one of the weaker chapters - (4/10 - see me).

Well, there goes the neighbourhood ...

It's easy... Cider or Cointreau, cider is more of a session drink but Cointreau would get you pissed quicker if you 'slam' it.

I'd go for cider.

I think my Apple is really really nice (a powerbook, in fact) and I never even heard of an Orange computer. Q.E.D - dave b

Onions are cheaper than both
