Can someone clue me in on the avocado posts?

[Fun4Me]

I keep seeing avocado posts here.

There has to be some background for these.

For the life of me I can't figure them out. Would someone be so kind as to fill this dumbded poster in on the details?

[Catt]

Not so much what was wrote but rather who wrote it 

[Jar11591]

Is this a typo? Or did you actually mean to say "avocado" posts? 

What the hell is an avocado post????

You're going to have to get @.ghoti. to fill you in on this one.

I'm assuming it is some sort of inside joke unless he's an avocado whisperer, in which case I need to talk to him pronto ( I haven't had a decent avocado in a long time)

It's All about the Guacamole.

Funny you should ask. Glenn and A-Jay both asked what I was thinking. Here is my reply.

Since I joined the staff, and now read every post as often as I can, I've noticed something. There may be thread about a particular reel, or rod, or bait; and somebody will jump in to say use braid. Not in every thread, but often enough I took note of it.

I was online one evening, with my mouse in position to hide one of these off topic posts, when my wife said, "guacamole sounds good; why don't you make some?". What squirted out of some odd, unused corner of my mind was this. Don't delete these posts, don't hide them, leave them as is.

But, in every thread about braid, I say something about avocados. And try to make it fit the theme of the thread.

Trying to make a point, in a somewhat humorous fashion.

Been waiting for somebody to ask if I've been smoking that stuff again. No, I haven't.

Basically meaning the answer has nothing to do with the question

Thanks for the explanation .ghoti. 

I appreciate it.

Precisely!

I thought it was about taking an avocado and carving the face of one of the mods (your choice) into the avocado and then casting it off the back of the boat to scare the bass to the front of the boat so we can catch them.

Darn. Now what do I do with all of those avocados I bought?

Exactly what you bought them for....we are gonna need pictures of the final product!

Guacamole

One ripe avocado, mashed with a fork

One small garlic clove, minced as fine as you can

One Serrano pepper, diced very fine

Juice of half a lime

Salt, pepper, cumin and oregano to taste

Mix it all up and let set in the fridge for 30 minutes

Enjoy

Hmmm - avocadoes - bass fishing - I'm too dumb to hook this up

[soflabasser]

I enjoy eating avocados and use them often as a ingredient in my meals.

That's funny because I noticed the common thread, pun intended, between avocados and braid. I even though avocado might be a color of braid.

I start craving spaghetti and garlic bread every time I smell JJ's.

I sort of got it.  I told my wife, "some moderator on Bass Resource is sick of the "what is the best ______" posts and now talks about avocados."  I was close!

Well I love to eat avocados and I love to fish "avocado" colored plastics, so does that count?

I think it only counts if you smear avocado on your bait.:)
