Do you know what a Paleo diet is?

semicolonp @semicolonp (518) • Philippines 16 Jan 13

So I've just heard about Paleo diets, wherein you copy the dietary practices of people who lived during the Paleolithic period (and make them modern, of course). From what I understand, that means more meat and tree-grown fruits...

How many is a few?

semicolonp @semicolonp (518) • Philippines 6 Sep 12

As the title says, how many is a few? I have a pretty consistent view of a couple. It's 2 or more, but less than 3. A few, I'm more ambivalent. It's more than 3 and maybe up to 6? But never more than 10. I'm asking this because...

Administrative-vs-User Accounts

semicolonp @semicolonp (518) • Philippines 19 Jul 10
