MODERATORS
I believe your claim that I'm breaking a rule is incorrect, and that you should lose all points for the day.
The vibe until yesterday has been great, and I agree with you here.
If Chiseled Face counts for LASSCO, then why can't Neroli count for Orange Blossom, especially with evidence that it is often used interchangeably?
Either way, our lord and savior @enndeegee@sub.wetshaving.social has reliably and consistently said "if that's the consensus". I don't think there is a consensus one way or the other, which is unfortunate, but also means that no rule has been broken. In discord there seemed to be a lot of excitement that Tabac was acceptable, followed by one or two people saying they disagree, followed by some people getting scared and taking an airbud. Proof was found that supports both opinions... therefore no consensus.
Also, unrelated, what is imhofing? I can't find anything online about it.
This is a misrepresentation. Ron is an artisan who made both soaps. The brands don't matter. Ron counts, not Chiseled Face. Just reading the rules, no trick, no interpretation.
"Disproving" something with a bogus argument. Senator Imhofe threw a snowball in the capitol to prove that it's cold outside and therefore global warming didn't exist. You showed evidence of two people conflating neroli and orange blossom, when that doesn't mean anything. The two substances are produced from the same ingredients, but differently. Scotch whiskey and Bavarian beer have the same ingredients too, are they the same?
Ok, but that isn't the question, is it?
Really? Low blow
