Are you green?

[sally]

Do you buy organic food and watch what kind of household products you buy? Or do you not care and go to town on GMO foods and spray the shit out of your house with Febreze?

In some ways I'm green but not 100%. I buy a lot of food from the Amish because I know how it's grown and I know the meat hasn't been injected like it would be if it came from a regular supermarket. I'm more green with food than I am with cleaning products. The cleaning product aisle at the supermarket is my favorite aisle.

I go to the farmhouse markets and sometimes buy organic stuff meat, vegetables, cheese etc. I'm not strictly organic or anything not by a long shot but if there's an alternative organic version of a product on sale I will consider it.

Cleaning products are something I'm not particularly fussed about though the atmosphere is already toxic as fuck I don't think me paying extra for environmentally friendly air freshener is going to make any difference now.

I recycle. But I do Fabreeze the shit out of my house. I but organic sometimes. I guess I don't really the it about it much.

[Maggot]

Are you kidding? I use oak bark as soap in the shower.

Not terribly. I recycle and I try to bring my own bags to the grocery store or I return the plastic ones for recycling if I get them. I buy some things organic but I'm not zealous about it.

Packaging these days pisses me off. Do you really need a 12 inch square piece of plastic that requires bolt covers to remove to hold a 1" device? Children's toys are the worst; glad those days are behind me.

I felt guilty buying my son a pack of mechanical pencils for school last week. He *might* refill some of them but eventually those plastic suckers will end up in a landfill somewhere; never to biodegrade.

ETA: I hate most air fresheners; they're usually overwhelming. I'd rather just open up all the windows and let in the "fresh" polluted air.

Somehow I knew you did. If you wouldn't spray Febreze up your nose or down your throat you probably shouldn't spray it in your house.

I bought a clock for Mike's room. I had to use a screw driver to get it out of the box.

Christmas is the worst with that shit. You can't even relax because you have to spend all morning unscrewing toys and cutting wires.

I buy a lot of organic and farmers market stuff. no febreze, its bad for the animals and the GF. I do recycle also. Instead of tree bark for soap, I make my own, including pine tar soap, all organic and/or food grade of course

[Maggot]

Does it remove tar and feathers?

[SIXFOOTERsez]

Yes actually it will.

[Maggot]

Hey, Ramseykittens............

[Cynical Ninja]

I wonder if human liposuction waste makes good soap?

It did for Brad Pitt/Edward Norton in Fight Club.

[SIXFOOTERsez]

Fat is fat, it should make a fine soap

[Maggot]

I never understood or ever looked at how you could make candles out of fat. Or Semen for the candles the nuns use or anything like that but now I'm kinda horny for the knowledge.

[ramseycat]

Hey, Ramseykittens............

Are you going to personally wash me?

[Maggot]

What are you wearing?

[ramseycat]

Just the tar and feathers.

[Maggot]

6ftr I'm gonna need 6lbs. of soap.
