How can I learn how to spell properly and simultaneously dole out trite advice on a message board, when I could be making better use of my time?

Since when does anything on a message board constitute as a "better use of my time"?

That said...this man seems to have some class.

Dear Sir,

I am preparing veal scallopini served over arugula and would appreciate suggestions as to some complimentary appetizers or side dishes and a wine pairing.

I got it. See OP. Every antagonist, needs a protagonist. I would drop some Latin in here, but I don't want to take away from your novelty account. Carry on.

Due to veal being a comparatively light meat, you can go with either an Italian red or white. Really, in regards to your wine pairing you can make it your preference, but keep it medium bodied.

I would pair it with a nice risotto, with some sugar peas and mushrooms mixed in.

I love you though. You're like a fine wine, getting better with time...which plays right into your persona. Well done, good chap!

It's a combination of oak and some kind of floral underpinnings I can't quite define.

Actually reading these responses, OP isn't totally full of shit...which makes it that much better.

That is why I take exception to the 'trite' comment. Despite what what some of the kids think, I do this shit for a living. I'm just here to help.

Well, my dad said the abortion didn't take on me.

It's awkward seeing him everyday. What should I do?

Yeah, that's funny. Of course I originally asked that people be honest, but I'm glad you're going for a horrible overused joke.
