    Since eating turnips is one of my least favorite memories of living in Ireland and the UK, I'm going to vote "wanker".

    I lived in Pennsylvania for a few years and saw how the Amish and Mennonites live. It's a very limiting existence, even though they are perfectly situated in agricultural areas that provide a bountiful yield of a wide variety of crops and they have all the manufactured goods and materials our industrial society produces to choose from.

    Inbreeding and the lack of enthusiasm on the part of successive generations are big problems in those communities.

    I vote "wanker," also.

    Yes but even the Amish now use CNC tools (run by pneumatics, not electricity). Just found out that they even have telephones, not at their homes but in shared public areas..

    As for Blood, she is probably a wanker with a low-masturbatory threshold.

    Weighing in on the agrarian side, I love fresh turnips. And turnip greens. Mmmmm...roots.

    I wouldn't want to do it for a living, but there's a satisfaction for me in eating food I've grown myself. If I had to farm all day, every day, that satisfaction would probably shrink considerably.
