        There are far worse choices. Comic sans is at least readable.

              Totally agree. Betraying my old fart-ishness, but I hate the fantasy league concept.

                And we had some dingus microwave some very pungent sauerkraut last week. The guy in the cube behind mine actually got up and asked if someone was really microwaving sauerkraut. It was awful.

                  Hmm... I came here to post about a closely-related gear-grinder: people waiting for an elevator on the ground floor who stand right up against the doors. Let the people get off first, dimwit. I actually had to walk up to a person once until my nose was about 3" away from his until he'd step aside and let me off.

                    I eat mine cold. There's actually beneficial bacteria on cabbage and heat kills it. That crap in a can is pasteurized so that process has already killed the bacteria. Jarred or bagged is the way to go.

                      I also eat it cold, and I don't like it cooked. Raw tastes much better anyway. I remember some butcher shop I used to go to trying to tell me that I want cooked sauerkraut. Sorry Charlie, fresh is the way to go.

                        I eat mine the right way. By putting it in the garbage. Blech.

                          The entire point of kraut (and it's Asian cousin kimchi), is that it's an uncooked, fermented/rotting product.

                            and as far as I can tell, the only decent use of sauerkraut is as a garnish on a hot dog purchased from a street vendor. Otherwise, cole slaw is preferable IMHO.

                              There's a thing called "signal to noise" ratio. Count the characters in the actual message (including subject line) and call it signal; count the characters in the signature and call it noise. Do the "(signal/noise)" math. If the value is under 2 your signature is too long.

                              If you find yourself frequently under 2:
                              - set up your email to not include the signature on replies in email threads
                              - shorten your signature!
