Yes. And maybe a “food you shouldn’t try at all” thread.
And a whole food forum subsection.
I predict that next on the ‘What are you listening to’ thread will be the disturbing sounds my stomach makes when it desires food.

I saw it! It was scandalous .
Not really. I don’t know why he deleted it…
That’s almost a decent Spoonerism.

I was just lurking in these days cause I’m busy, but… I had the strong temptation to open a “what are you smelling” thread. You know, for completion’s sake

Wow. That’s a spoonerism!
A new word which I have just learnt in the ItalianDub subsection of the forum, and I was fearing I wouldn’t have never the chance to use it!!

Pood (Russian: пуд, tr. pud, IPA: [put]), is a unit of mass equal to 40 funt (фунт, Russian pound). Plural: pudi or pudy. Since 1899 It is approximately set to 16.38 kilograms (36.11 pounds).

Yeah, it’s probably only the mods that can see the flagged post, after it has been deleted.
