Category: Let's talk
Allright. This topic is dedicated to: Yeah, you guessed it! It's dedicated to Pumpkins!
Did you guys know that pumpkins can weigh anything from 9-18 lbs (4-8 kg) with the largest capable of reaching over 75 lbs (34 kg)?
Pumpkins are capable of growing extremely large with the proper attention and care. The world record pumpkin weighs 1689 lbs. This pumpkin was cared for by Joe Jutras in Topsfield, Massachusetts. I have to make a note to visit this dedicated pumpkin brother.
In Korea and Japan, the word translating to "pumpkin" is a slang term for an unattractive woman. In the
American South
and Midwest, however, the term "pumpkin" is sometimes used as an endearment.
So, you can eat pumpkins, you can use the word to insult or show your affection for someone; hell, you can even participate in activities involving pumpkins. Halloween and Pumpkin chucking comes to mind immediately.
Half Moon Bay, California , holds the annual Pumpkin and Arts Festival, drawing over 250,000 visitors each year and including the World Champion Pumpkin Weigh-Off.
Oh, and then last but, not least, Morton, Illinois is the self declaired pumpkin capital of the world.
So, you all see: Pumpkins are ausumn. I will not change my mind.
I like pumpkins!
well good for you, i don't see the point in them....apart from the fact it's nice to light one on october 31st.
but thanks for the facts, may come in useful in a quiz. lol
lmfao, i love you my pumpkin brother.
And I am definitely going to that place, it's gotta be my spiritual home.
all praise pumpkin!!! It can be like the church of the subgenious.
I like carving them. it is fun
the annual pumpkin pilgrimage. lol
The last time i carved a pumkin was back in ninth grade. i guess it came out alright. mom displayed it proudly on our front porch.
i love all the things you can make with pumpkins. pumpkin bread, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin pie, pumpkin roll, yummy pumpkin cake, pumpkin cream for my coffee. pumpkin custard, pumpkin ice cream.
mmmm pumpkin.
Now don't go ruining the sacred pumpkin with coffee! honestly!
cameron you can put pumpkin cream in your tea instead of milk. it is yummy too.
Tea and pumpkins... i'm not sure!
hale! hail? or whatever. the pumkin! lmao hanif, you rock. you're bloody bonkers, but you rock.
hahah, of course he's awsome! lol, 4, 5, 8!
oh yeah, babe, definitely come to Massachusetts so you can do your pilgramage to pumkins, and, you can come and visit a certain Hmong Lao princess who needs for you to rescue her from these huge pumkins that have her trapped in pumkin pulp! lol!
lmfao, this all is extremely amusing for some reason.
but i wont change mymind about pumpkins, they taste and feel nasty.
this reminds me of an evil looking halloween pumpkin staring at you grinning ready to open its big mouth full of fangs and swallow the next poster. lol
and welshness, it's hail. lol
hail to normalists!
hahhahahahahah, I guess it's me then! aaaaaaaaaaaaa, someone help, aaaaaa!
lol, and yes, let's all just worship the queens of normalism! lol, which would be me, me, and me! lol jk, it's me, and of course, Laurie! lol
and, no, no, no, I, love, pumkins! They, are, so, so, so, good! mmmmm
i've tried a free sample of pumpkin-flavored ice cream from Coldstone creamery and loved it. *smile* Looks like I'll order that next time I go there.
You see? Pumpkins are so versitile, let's join together and praise them for being the steady rock in an otherwise unsteady world.
lmao long live the pumkin!
I am sure you'd even be able to defend yourself with a really uge pumpkin, if you have to. and Hmong Lao, Princess: 4, 5, 8.
Just came across this site: check it out, all you who love and worship pumpkins.

Hail! the pumkin then. And if you tell me I spelled pumkin wrong I'll... send the pumkin police after ya, lmao.
Yes, you can sharpen a pumpkin and make it a very deadly weapon. But I urge you all, don't fight with a pumpkin, cuddle it!
Cuddling Pumpkins might get me in trouble. LOL
lol, damn right! if you cuddle with a pumkin, it means the couch for you! lol
yes, yes, yes, Hail to all pumkins!
You guys are crazy! lol But totally wonderful! And you made me hungry! Mmmmm! Pumpkin spiced tea, pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread! I've always wanted to try other pumpkin-flavoured stuff. Know how they're always drinking that juice in the Hary Potter books? Is that a real thing? Has anyone here ever had it? I actually have a funny story. My boyfriend, as most of you know, comes from Greece. He's been here for about seven years, but he's still learning English. One day, we were on the phone and when I asked him what he was making for dinner, he said potatoes and pumpkin. He said he loves pumpkin boiled with vinegar. something didn't sound right to me. so when I went to see him, I asked him to show me one. Turns out he meant squash. He was in a store and they had a big sign that said "pumpkins" and right underneath it, they had the squash. We both had a laugh.
But hanif, I know a particularly juicy pumpkin you could cuddle! lol.
You pumpkin heads are crazy.
No, tis you non believers who are crazy. You'll go to pumpkin hell, you know! lol.
As a Polytheist, I can't help but wonder which god or goddess rules over pumpkins... lol or, since the pumpkin has become a god now, who made it so? rofl
It is the power of the people that made it so, and all pumpkins are equal in there almightyness! Is almightyness a word? lol.
Cam, there's only one pumpkin that I'll cuddle. Believe me when I say that I do not want the coutch.
lmfao, so I'm not worth a night on the couch? I'm heartbroken I tell ya, heartbroken!
Oh I Love pumpkin bread with lots of butter. I also like pumpkin pie.
Oi, cam. Now I'm almost convince that my princess will never ever send me to sleep on the couch. lmfao
Bonkers. Completely and utterly bonkers. I've yet to try anything pumkinish, however. Perhaps I'll post here when I do. Hail! the pumkin!
hey hey hey, babe, talking like that will definitely earn you an honored place on the couch! lol
and yes, if you don't believe in pumkins, I shall send you all to pumkin hell! because, afterall, I am the goddess of pumkinism! so all you pumkinists, bow down to me when I come by! and, and, and, if my pumkin prince goes and cuddles a certain English Pumkin, then he will definitely feel the heat of my wrath! lol
I hate to burst your bubble, but you are all late to this pumpkin-love in. Everyone seems to have forgotten the king of pumpkins. It’s Linus of course, after all, it was he who first uttered those immortal words, “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charley Brown!”
Hmm, the heat of your wrath? Sounds interesting. lmao
lol, shut up! You know what I mean!
Kia, don't be like that, you could cuddle some english pumpkin too? lmao.
hahaha, well cam, I don't know...I mean, why would I want something that Hanif has already experienced? lol jkjk
lmao kia!
should I start another topic with a slightly different naming convention? I see that their's alot of similar topics on the boards these days.
Example: instead of I like pumpkins, I'll just start a new topic: I like pumpkins alot.
Don't the people at least view some of the posts on the current page just to see if their topic has been covered yet?
i'm waiting for the a to z of pumpkins....
english pumpkin? hmmm.. hehehe
Ideas? Come on? I'm not the only pumpkin worshipper on earth, or am I?
Pipi, English pumpkin is well worth checking out lol.
Pumpkin bro, don't blaspheme, of course your not. How about "british pumpkin or sexy asian girl?" Then people could help you in your difficult decision. lol.
Wow, this thread certainly gets me laughing. You guys are nuts, but it's great. I've always love pumpkin bread and pumpkin bars. I like the shape and texture of whole pumpkins. However, I can't stand the feel of the pulp inside. Ugh. But have any of you guys ever baked, or had baked pumpkin seeds? We used to do that at Halloween time. Cam, pumpkin chi tea is really good. There was also a pumpkin flavored ale I tried at a friend's Haloween party a few months ago that was pretty good. Too bad I couldn't drink more of it, but not with the meds I'm on! Otherwise I would have.
And Tiffanitsa, I think there is a type of squash called a pumpkin squash? that could be what the sign in the grocery store meant.
hahahaha, yeah, lol cam, how about sexy asian girl pumkin! lol, and only one person is allowed to try it! lol hahahaha
May I?
lol, you may, baby, you may! This sexy Asian pumkin is waiting for you downstairs! lol
I'm a HUDGE Pumpkin fan, well around Halloween time that is with the facial expressions people give them and all. However those are nice facts though I shall keep them in mind. Oh yeah you gotta love them oven roasted pumpkin seeds provided by well.... the Pumpkins.
Hey I live about 20 miles from Morton Il and this is where they make the Libby's pumpkin pie filling. I have gone to the pumpkin festible they have every year where the pumpkin chuckin is held. What a crazy time! I love pumpkin bars with the white frosting, yummy.
Pumpkin Bars...? Wish i could try one of those, is it good?
mmmmmmmm, pumkin bars, sounds good!
I'd love to have a pumpkin bar with a lot of rosting. Me and my sweets ... god, there's something wrong with me. lol I crave them all the time.
Making me hungry now
