Using euphemisms won't save you.

This topic is too close to the bone, and I expect it to be butchered any minute...

?????????

Bl**dy H*ll does he have to spell it out for you...Lamb = euphemsim for what ???

Posted (edited)

Most Tops stores also have chilled legs and other cuts of lamb, but usually the frozen New Zealand lamb legs and racks are tastier - my Aussie mates tell me its because the best lamb from Australia is produced in spring (September), and if its really "fresh" at any other time of year its likely to taste bland.

On another note, I believe the previous comments by Street Cowboy ("Using euphemisms won't save you. This topic is too close to the bone, and I expect it to be butchered any minute...") were intended as an attempt at humor, referring, no doubt, to the ongoing political debacle and intended to imply, I assume, that the majority of red shirts are being led like lambs to the slaughter... Actually, there's nothing very funny about that at all, is there, SC...

No, I was being less topical and more smutty. Good political interpretation, though. You try and portray me as more sypathetic than I really am; thanks very much for that

Edit: I should have said "I expect the thread to be butchered" - given the political interpretation given above, the original text could have been misinterpreted as quite an unpleasant metaphor; my apologies.

Ahhh sorry... perhaps I got the wrong end of the stick because a red shirt barricade on Chidlom is in plain view of my office window and its affecting my thinking ...

Yes sir; Let's not become guilty of stinking thinking.

Australia's best lamb seems to be in NZ shops.

Far cheaper than NZ lamb, which if ever available, as world's best is in demand overseas and not available.

We have to do with second best.
