I hope it wasnt me. I pride myself at pounding pepper.
283 down and 941 to go!
Well—been told to pound rocks, lead, and moose dung so far. But not salt. Hope this counts.
To pound salt?
What does that mean?
My answer is no though.
@rebbel You don’t remember when I told you to pound salt?
I once offered to hug @wundayatta – which he promptly refused. I’m pretty sure I wasn’t hitting on him though.
@cprevite I’m baking chocolate chip cookies today.
No, and I’m also wondering what pounding salt means.
@blueiiznh could you pass the popcorn?
I have never hit another jelly. I have never been told to pound salt.
@wilma I’m not sure why anyone would pound salt, but maybe it is something that was done at one time. Perhaps it refers to crushing large pieces of salt into finer crystals, or weighing salt into smaller increments; both of which would be dull menial work. Maybe it refers to walking on salt, similar to ‘hit the bricks’ or ‘kick mud’, since salt is often spread on the ground as a de-icer in winter and is also common in desert and seashore areas.
(NSFW) It could also mean to got F yourself
@wilma passing the salted popcorn
@blueiiznh thanks and umm… where did you get the salt for the popcorn?
Has anyone churned any butter for the popcorn?
@wilma it was right next to the butter churner thinger
I have churned butter, I suppose that makes me suspect.
I am still watching to see if someone admits to hitting on another flutherer and being told to pound salt. Would they admit it if it happened? Do people really hit on other people on the internet? For real?
@wilma yes they do. The women on this site are predatory.
@SuperMouse Hit on not hit. There is a biiiigggg difference.
@marinelife oh, in that case I amend my answer: I have never been told to pound salt.
@janbb: stop talking dirty to me penguin. :^)

Just @jonsblond and she told me to pound on something else . . .
Is that ^^ related to this?
Nah. Awhile back, there was a thread asking about which Jelly you would ask to be your date to a Fluther function. I stated Downtide. Afterwards, I sent him a PM stating such and begged forgiveness if this proved embarrassing. He didn’t tell me to go pound salt, thank goodness.
Please pass the popcorn over here @janbb.
@janbb: I’m sorry I simply will not discuss nuts in public.
pecans or walnuts?
@cprevite Meet me in the kitchen with a big – err, spoon.
No, I’ve successfully pounded the salt of every jelly I’ve hit on, lol.
@Mama_Cakes WWFC left a while back. Maybe she’ll return, maybe she won’t. What does that have to do with this thread?
Just noticed that she pulled the pin (she left). Nothing to do with this thread.
don’t mention the wooden spoon, don’t mention the wooden spoon, don’t mention the wooden spoon…
they are now out of the oven and on the counter, darlin’
Pound salt? Is that what they do in Canadia?
I’ve been told to “pound sand”, but have never heard “pound salt” before.
^^ Yeah, my mother used to say “pound sand” also. Never heard of pounding salt.
@janbb: Warm cookies. Mmmmm.
Chuck, we say it over here in Canada.
@Mama_Cakes: So then, do you say someone is “sand of the earth”?
People from areas with salt mines would say, “go pound salt” and those from other areas would encourage the pounding of sand. This is in the same context of telling someone to “go fly a kite.” It means “get lost,” “leave me alone,” etc.
It was me. I hit on The Secret Service Man. I offered him sexual favors in return for an autograph from Ted Nugent.
@Tropical_Willie, I have been told to plead the fifth. This conversation my be monitored.
@bkcunningham no problem I’m connected with a half a dozen members of the Department of Home Security in DC
NOT
It was me. I hit on The Secret Service Man. I offered him sexual favors in return for an autograph from Ted Nugent.
I promptly informed her that I was “not that kind of boy”.
Once I was flirting with someone, and they said that if I didn’t stop, they’d lock me in a safe, and throw me in the Hudson River.
I’m savvy enough anymore to pick the right battles, but I had @delirium fever as bad as the next guy or gal back in the day, which was probably a nonstarter for most everyone who tried to breach that firewall. She had it going on though—as our matriarch once put it, “a face that could launch a thousand ships.”
My “hitting on” days have passed my hubby is happy to know.
Nope. I’m here to party, not settle down. lol
