"Ooh.. look at me. I never use colloquial or 'nick' names. Don't have Band-aids? Then give me an adhesive bandage, or whatever is on the fucking box. I'd love to tell you that my wallet has a Velcro enclosure, but I don't know if it was licensed by 3M... yes, quite."

That's you. That's what you sound like.

How about linking to one that I can buy today like I linked to? Surely no problem, right?

Also what do you think whoosh means out of curiosity?? Do you think it's a cure-all for losing an argument?

The entire point that was being made, you pork eating mook, is that people use colloquial terms for common use items everyday. Not every roll of bubble wrap is Bubble Wrap. Need a Dumpster? Can't. They're not called that anymore, the trademark ran out... I seriously doubt when you have a small scrape you go, "Ree! Mommy! Get me an adhesive bandage! IT'S WHAT'S ON THE FUCKING BOX!"

The fact that Taylor Ham had to be changed because some beaurocratic bullshit is ridiculous, the product remains unchanged. Whatever you and your overlords decide to put "on the fucking box," it's Taylor Ham.

Yeah, how dare the government say "you can't call something what it's not."

No, the government said, "We've changed what this is, now you can't call it what we say it's not." Man had a product and a name brand. US government steps in and fucks with man's livelihood.

Ham is a specific cut of pork, taken from a pig. If inclined, you can take any ham and point to exactly where it came from. The best you can do with pork roll is gesture vaguely towards the pens. Man called it "prepared ham" to try and be a weasel and got called out because it's not ham. And now a hundred plus years later people are still simping for the poor poor businessman that couldn't just lie to everyone for profit without the big bad gubmint stepping in.

Cry me a river.

Damn... that "on the fucking box" comment really sent you into a mental tailspin, huh? You've quoted it like three times.

Sorry your product doesn't exist :c

Well it stood out. You took the time to make it bold. It really showed your anger and your passion about this asinine subject.
