Title: Lettuce.
Post by: GROWLER on August 28, 2010, 05:24:36 PM: I'm sick to the very back teeth of trying to discuss summat, whilst 'old ded 'ed' goes rambling off on a tangent about something totally unrelated. ::)

Lettuce.
What the blazes is the point of it, apart fro making your dinner plate look like a garden?
It's tasteless, and has virtually no nutritional value worth mentioning.

You could stuff it down your face all day and night long, and still feel unsatisfied, so why do you bother? Shrugs:
