Except the ones with the lucky rogue right?

I don't remember, honestly. :P

Well i like 1001 nights much better than grimm fairy tales anyways.
Have you read a 1001 nights collection?

I have not, actually. I really should.

Yeah they are fun to read, i often took my books with me to school when i was younger and had story times.

oh man XD those stories, haha. the victorians were pretty darn inventive with their abridgements

and now you are talking about the grimm tales again right?

no, 1001 nights, it's a victorian construct, most of the stories are made whole-cloth and what few are not a re heavily abridged XD

One Thousand and One Nights (Arabic: كِتَاب أَلْف لَيْلَة وَلَيْلَة‎ kitāb ʾalf layla wa-layla) is a collection of Middle Eastern and South Asian stories and folk tales compiled in Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age.

*pokes Cho with facts*

-shrugs- it does not change the fact that the version known in the west is both abridgement and making stuff up XD so unless you are talking about the pre-1700s variants my commentary still stands

There are editions that are translations of the the earlier collections or a mix of both. People tend to enjoy reading the original stuff too so of course there are unabridged versions.

so are you talking about the unabridged version or the version with alladin? XD

I checked the library the bigger collection is a translation from the 1700 but i also have a collection that is translated from earlier arabic texts so both i guess?

well, good luck and happy reading XD

It does seem my favorites are the ones added in the 1700. I especially loved the tale with the roc, not the one with Sinbad in tho.
And yeah the originals tend to be a bit dry but interesting none the less.

dry? XD they are erodic, hahaha, dry is not quite what i would say

Well i didn't read very far! Maybe i should now.
Good erotic or guy erotic?

why erotic?
are we writing a novel?

what do you mean good or guy?

also no XD we are talking about 1001 nights XD

Erotic stuff that is good for everyone or that only guys would enjoy reading?

any erotic material kind of depends on the person and what they're into, wouldn't you say?

But one can always generalize and there are major categories.

well i know guys who like heteronormative, homoerotic and masturbative eroticism XD so no, i kinda don't know what guys would enjoy aside from eroticism in general haha

Yeah i have no idea what you mean with most of it anyways.

so how are you? it's dinner time but i have not cooked anything yet XD

Well i think a storm is coming because my head is killing me.
And we have had fish today that wasnt cod or salmon! Yay!

oh? how was it served?


and eew XD i had one of those the other day, the pressure was so heavy me and my mother-in-law both felt it

Breaded and pan-fried served with oven baked potato slices and remoulade sauce.

wow XD better than what i am making (pork fried in black butter with diced potatoes in a reduced white-sauce)

black butter? whats that?

it's basically butter cooked at a higher temp(with or without spices, to make it go faster i do with) until it turns dark brown or clarifies with black flecks

it tastes amazing on bland meats

Chinese soy sauce is the family solution for bland meats.
Also pepper, pepper is the best and i love it.

cannot have that, i am the only one who's stomach is not on a revolt against flavor XD

Rephrase please.
I wish it were spring again so i could pick fresh herbs and maybe find wild ones in the forests.

my family has stomach problems and only eats salt for the most part. so flavoring cannot be done with spice very often

Can they at least eat much onion and other flavorsome veggies?

sadly not. my fiance could if he'd stop eating fast-food 7 days a week but my motherinlaw is on doctor's orders x______x


it's a paaaaiin

It's pure hell! No onions! I love my onions, soft, golden, crunchy, raw! They can be varied in so many ways that it's a base ingredient and base taste in much of my cooking.

dude, caramelized onions on fresh bread with cheddar or pork and spiced with rosemary and garlic


ugh, i might have to post in the error report. i am wondering what other threads i am missing as well >x>
