Also for unknown reasons I found it incredibly easy when it came to growing kumquats. I accidentally threw away an old one and then a plant was there in its place a couple months latter.

I used to have a delicious blood orange tree in the back, but when I moved had to leave it behind.  I would highly recommend those if you've got the right area to cultivate one, puts regular oranges to shame.

Good god, more interest about limes on GB than I would have thought. This has evolved into a serious discussion of gardening.

" @Lies: I know, right? It's shocked the shit outta me, but still left me with a bemused yet satisfied smile. That said, I don't wanna be known as "that dude who writes gardening blogs on Giant Bomb." "

I'm somewhat disappointed to discover that Australian limes are not giant and deadly compared to the ones we have in America. Way to break the mold.

Mojitos?  Come on, buzz.  You and your lady friend can do better than that!

Do you enjoy the universe?

Assuming you finished Eat Lead, would you recommend the game to people now that it's probably ridiculously cheap?

I beat Eat Lead sometime last year. It had its moments, but there were some incredibly frustrating parts that made me want to break my controller (especially the last fight). I did enjoy all the achievements at the very end, though.

It's weird how this thread has suddenly got popular again.

@Vito_Raliffe: It was the Observe the Grenade, where you had to kill three testers at once with one shot from a grenade launcher (more of a pain in the arse than it sounds). Even worse was the fact that it didn't specify they had to be in the last level with the boss - for ages I was killing three or more of them in the level before and not getting the achievement. Grrr.

@buzz_clik Have you ever tried a limequat? I just discovered them after looking up your Tahitian lime and now I'm fascinated by it. I don't think it would survive here in Canada though.

BTW did you do the chat dragon?

@jonnybob: Nope, never had a limequat, although I can guess what goes into making one. Would it have the bitterness of a cumquat? Hell, now you've sent me on a Google Quest.

And nope, I didn't make the chat dragon. I think that might have been a Dave Snider joint. Someone in the Make Things Look Pretty department of Whiskey, anyway.

I don't think I've ever eaten a lime, is that bad?

@rawrsair: I don't think it's bad, but it can't hurt to try new things to see if you like them. Of course, I don't go around eating them like they're oranges - they're usually something to add while cooking or making delicious boozy beverages.

But yeah, you should totally have a lime one at some point. How about right now?

@buzz_clik: I don't have one :( But I will be sure to add some lime into something, drink or otherwise soon! I'm usually bad with fruit etc because I'm slightly allergic but y'never know, eh.

Wait, why can't I eat them like oranges? I do it all the time with limes and lemons.

@buzz_clik: Limes are just lemons that are green with envy... they still taste better though :).

It's hard to find a good limeade these days. I saw an orangeade a while back; that blew my mind.

So this is where that quest reference came from. A mystery is solved!

I think it's fine if that's what you're into - it's just not my thing. Also, should someone's first experience with a lime or a lemon be to eat one in such a way? (You'll probably say yes, right?)

@Legend: Actually, not really. That was just a big, weird coincidence!
