Do you mean, like pretending to be in a relationship on the internet?...If so, I don't understand that one...It makes no sense to me...But, I have heard of it

If you mean meeting people on the internet, getting to know them, and then hooking up in real life...I think that's because:

1) Some people just don't know where to go to meet people, and talking online is easier sometimes than face to face...It also gives you a chance to try to get to know someone a little better before you even meet them in person, and closing a page is easier than walking away

2) Sometimes it just happens, even when you're not looking for a date or a relationship...You meet someone on the net, share the same interests, spend time talking about things over a period of time, and at some point something just 'clicks'...That happened to me (4 years ago, we're still together, and have a baby), and there's a couple that actually MET at THIS FORUM and are now married, and doing very well...I am SO happy for them :)

3) I'm sure there are many other reasons that I have no idea about...The above 2 are just my best guesses

I agree with Rayne. I have social anxiety so it's much easier to meet online, or talk on the phone, than actually meeting someone in person until I know them better. Welcome to HDC! :)

Mhmm. I believe they do. All kinds of nuts too. Fresh nuts! Stale nuts! Crunchy nuts! Salty nuts! Sweet nuts! Mixed nuts! For goodness sakes, you can even get your nuts cracked!.....or at least so I've been told. :D

We have something similiar. It has a red candy coating and is sweet. It's called Boston Baked Beans. (Although it's not a bean)

Oddly enough, that sounds like boston baked beans to me...Nuts with dark reddish-brown candy coating like you described


EDIT: AHHHH!...Leprucky just beat me to it :p

urgeok2 10-19-2008 06:02 PM

yeah - they definately dont call them that up here .. just beernuts ..

i must have had the salty kind before too though .. salty with sugar mixed in ?

I have seen those, but they don't really have them around here much - and I think I've seen some packaged refer to them as "boston baked beans" too - is this what the chief and Frank were eating in the car in The Naked Gun?

Here, what we call a beer-nut is just a salted peanut with the red "skin" left on...they're other than that, the same.

no - those were pistachios ... thus the big pile of shells beside the car ... some are dyed red

Elvis_Christ 10-19-2008 06:05 PM

Pistacio nuts are my favorites at the moment. I love Cashews if I'm cooking a stirfry up.

The only beer nuts that I've ever known of here are salty, not sweet (Neverending actually described them quite well)...Hmm...There probably are different kinds, though

They dye the shells red? ha, I've never, ever seen that done here...
I personally pick up roasted pistachios here and there, but much prefer the roasted macadamia (not sure if theyre grown abroad, people really ought to try them) and wallnuts for salads, every week at a local organic market.


So, the beernuts you people are referring to in general, are not the same thing I was talking about either?


You can make a nice "snack" if you like sweet things, by putting peanuts/cashews....etc, whatever nuts you like into a frypan, at low heat.
Throw in a some sugar and a very small amount salt until the mixture melts/coats (without browning) add equal parts butter/honey, but use pretty sparingly, just enought to coat, not to drip from, and "simmer" for about 2-3 minutes just until things start to darken slightly.
Place 'em on some nonstick cooking paper, grind some pepper over the top, and refrigerate.
This, I like.

INTERNETz make it easier to find someone tailored to your taste. They might be crazy, but there's just as much of a chance of that as the person you meet at a bar.

I've never INTERNETz dated. Though there once was a member here that made me think about trying it...

pinkfloyd45769 10-19-2008 06:27 PM

I'm not a big fan of nuts.They are just too plain,unless covered in chocalate:)
