Since we're disecting the frog to see how it works ...

Post #38,613 by drewk 5/14/02 10:34:07 AM Reply	Since we're disecting the frog to see how it works ... (And we all know how well frogs work after they're disected.) What I meant was that the humor doesn't depend on whether there actually is any fat to reduce. It's based on ... oh shit, now I get it. Umm, here in the U.S. we have a "low-fat" buttler-like [link\|http://www.tasteyoulove.com/\|spread] that is called "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter." The commercials for it always involve someone tasting it and exclaiming ... well you've probably already figured out what they exclaim. Point being, it's not about the wafers actually being low-fat. It's a play on a famous commercial, and the (somewhat sacreligious) idea of the wafer not actually being Jesus, as some denominations (notably Roman Catholic) claim. === I can't be a Democrat because I like to spend the money I make.

I caught the reference: Thanks to your cultural imperialism, or to me being such an astonishingly hip and with-it guy, or whatever, I knew about that fake-butter thingy.[] I just... didn't think it was funny anyway. Sorry I can't be more specific, but it seems I'm better at dissenting than at dissecting. [] The most probable cause, come to think of it, must be that it's been mentioned here on Iwethey before. Don't ask me where and why, but with the way discussions here meander from one thing to the other, it certainly isn't impossible. Christian R. Conrad Of course, who am I to point fingers?
