Don’t call me lima bean!
May 20, 2021
I get the occasional irate email from those who don’t appreciate the way I greet them in my newsletters.
I mean, some folks get incensed. Case in point:
Ann, I am not a Lima Bean. Please don’t insult your readers. Just say, Hi, or Greeting…But don’t call me something silly. Thank you. Lorena
Then we get downright mean. Clearly, no one wants to be associated with a bean or bean product, especially Banning here:
Bean Dip? Go fuck yourself.
Why do I insist in the face of such outrage?
