Another silly fortune cookie

Indulge yourself - but with moderation."

I'd consider moderation to be the antithesis of indulgence.

Comments?

(That was a moot question, of COURSE there will be comments.)

Trevoke,

It was a totally juvenile joke about feminine hygiene. Kotex.
Coat-tex. Co-tex. They all sound the same. Assuming this really bad joke has been beaten down enough, I'll try not to tamp on. No strings attached.

Hmmm. The flare of understanding has burned the hairs in my nostrils. I wish I could smell the sarcasm.

Trevoke,

Not to be nosy, but sorry about your [red]read[/red] hares. Literately.

If you get a third hole, you'd have a [blue]nostrilogy.[/blue]

I wouldn't go jumping like a rabbit at the notion that some of my hares may be hot, as they usually are. In fact, a well-known expression has been derived, comparing a pleasing act to the way they, themselves, behave when properly aroused (the smell of caviar sometimes does it).

[God, this makes no sense, and yet it does.]

I hope I don't end up with a nostrilogy. I don't know if I could cope with that, because, as I already speak a few languages, I am a troglodyt.

tsdragon said: LookingForInfo: If you were to eat at the Chinese Buffet all the time it would no longer be an indulgence, it would be normal. The fact that it is something you don't do regularly is part of what makes it an indulgence.

Are you sure about it tsdragon? To me if I am enjoing something - I can indulge into it every day.
As indulge is 'taking unrestrained pleasure in' as many times a day as you wish' I would add.

from m-w <indulged myself with food at the slightest excuse>

So I assume every time, often 'I' indulged myself with food at the slightest excuse...
