to think that I'll never be able to eat grilled cheese without laughing again?

[IvySedaiballs]

A friend has been making random allusions and jokes about "grilled cheese" for ages, that I never quite understood, so I asked, and was sent this link.

it's not just the actual article but the comments completely cracked me up. I am sat here still giggling to myself, with my toddler laughing along, but slightly bewildered.

I don't think I'll ever be able to eat grilled cheese again without thinking about that.. AIBU?

[Smellslikecatpee]

Excellent. .

OH is on the sofa next to me shall I offer him one for lunch and see what he says?
And I mean the eating kind. .

[IvySedaiballs]

better than offering him tomato soup :o

[aldiwhore]

Excellent

[ineedabodytransplant]

never had a grilled cheese sandwich..

must pop into the local deli and ask for one

[IvySedaiballs]

ohhh you are missing out ineed. it's lovely, especially fried with butter on both sides, and served with salad cream. :o

[MissTapestry]

'open faced club sandwich'... ROFL!

[RunforFun]

I think I am missing something...

what the heck are you going on about ? I've read some of the link and its all about making grilled cheese sandwiches...

[LunaticIsOnTheGrass]

Haha
Pmsl.

[IvySedaiballs]

yes, runforfun, it's all about making grilled cheese sandwiches, or someone's girlfriend who refuses to make him some. it has been suggested his pan may be dirty. or that she has tomato soup instead...
:o

[biddysmama]

im laughing so much now my toddler just asked what i was laughing at

"Grilled cheese" sounds to me like "cheese that has been grilled", which is a very strange foodstuff indeed.

Have you seen the Mac and cheese thread?

[IvySedaiballs]

it is cheese that has been grilled.. between two slices of bread. or in this case, it's something slightly different :o

[Trills]

From your description it has been fried, not grilled.

[Jacksmania]

I don't understand!!

Can someone spell it out in words of one syllable?

[IvySedaiballs]

I can spell it out for you in two letters. :o

[IvySedaiballs]

Trills, did you read the article?

[IvySedaiballs]

this is the crucial paragraph:
A disclaimer from Meredith: When this letter arrived in my Love Letters InBox, it was too risqué to post on Boston.com (we?re a family website, after all). But because I believe the reader?s question is valid and worthy of our discussion, I?ve decided to post it -- with all of the writer's R-rated phrases replaced by my G-rated euphemisms. I'm asking that you use my euphemisms in your comments so I can post them. I love a good euphemism, don?t you?

[stepawayfromtheecclescakes]

would those letters be BJ?

[Jacksmania]

Oh.






Ooooooooohhhhhh.




I get it.

[Jacksmania]

Still confused about tomato soup... but I don't think I want an explanation, I have a dim idea and I think leaving it there would be just fine. :o

[Trills]

I don't care - I'm still anti "grilled cheese" as a euphemism for "fried cheese sandwich". :o

(The agony aunt couldn't use the proper term in her "family newspaper" so substituted the term Grilled Cheese instead!

[anon2011]

Haha - I just emailed the link to DH and asked if he fancied some grilled cheese tonight!

[IvySedaiballs]

maybe I should have saved this thread for tomorrow night.. think of the potential. A bunch of MNers, and euphemisms....

[anon2011]

Hmmm, DH just called and reminded me that we're going out tonight - I don't think he got it!!
