18. Real butter is a wonderful thing
I am surprised it took this long for the copycat. I almost started one:

"Why are you better?"

I thought "better" of it, though. :D :hug: :hi:

22. thanks...
I saw Elrond's "why are you bitter" I figured the better and butter would follow soon.
Took longer than I expected.

I am good. I got a lot of my shopping done today. I still have to address my cards though.

Just got through watching Dexter.

28. It is probably time to change that...
It is one who is afraid of "woo" I think Jack_Dawson invented the word. It is not appropriate for the time of year.

I have been thinking all day that I need to change it. Any ideas?

30. oh dear...
woo-woo
Woo-woo (or just plain woo) refers to ideas considered irrational or based on extremely flimsy evidence or that appeal to mysterious occult forces or powers.

Here's a dictionary definition of woo-woo:

adj. concerned with emotions, mysticism, or spiritualism; other than rational or scientific; mysterious; new agey. Also n., a person who has mystical or new age beliefs.

When used by skeptics, woo-woo is a derogatory and dismissive term used to refer to beliefs one considers nonsense or to a person who holds such beliefs.

Sometimes woo-woo is used by skeptics as a synonym for pseudoscience, true-believer, or quackery. But mostly the term is used for its emotive content and is an emotive synonym for such terms as nonsense, irrational, nutter, nut, or crazy.

For example:

"But the woo-woo faction has adopted the word "organic" to apply only to a plant grown without the use of anything but water and faith."*
I think love is the one thing that should remain firmly in the realm of the woo-woo.*
The National Institutes of Health offered a course in feng shui, which prompted James Randi to write of woo-woo at the NIH.
...the woo-woos ... are more comfortable being ignorant of reality.*
The Skeptic's Dictionary has several hundred examples of mystical, spiritual, irrational, pseudoscientific, or anti-scientific New Age beliefs that many skeptics consider to be woo-woo.

32. Oh dear, I am a skeptic and an atheist, honey.
I hope that's okay with you, I just have to be honest. :hug:

I respect other folks beliefs as long as they aren't violent.

35. yes, I know that ...the difference is:
When used by skeptics, woo-woo is a derogatory and dismissive term used to refer to beliefs one considers nonsense or to a person who holds such beliefs.

I have not really seen you be deragatory and dismissive to another human. This is an attitude to which I object. I see nothing wrong with doubting and being skeptic. I am all this. I try to be repectful of all people. One who questions woo is not necessarily a wooAphobe.
