Things you're supposed to like, but don't

[pocaracas]

Some double entendres going on in here...

I'm told my special sauce goes down easier if I lay off the broccoli.

Watch this list!

---

- football, the European one. Somehow the whole country stops for a big game, while I'm there just trying to understand why is traffic crazy today in particular?... I can't understand how anyone can justify paying those kids the stupid amounts of money for playing a game... And most of the time they're not even playing it very well. I refuse to be a part of that.

- All alcoholic drinks. My tongue must be a special snowflake. Any alcohol overrides all other flavors and just tastes bad. I'm not particularly interested in ingesting things that taste bad.

---

- coffee.  Speaking of things that taste bad, there's one. To top it off, people usually have it scalding hot... Fuck no!

---

- tea. Just tastes of what I imagine dishwashing water tastes like.... Hot water with some slight flavoring of whatever the dishwasher fluid is composed... Herbs, lemon, whatever...

- milk. Just the sight of the skin on milk activates my gag reflex.

- spicy food. A minimum amount of Capsaicin just saturates my taste receptors and turns the pleasant act of eating into a nightmare.

- cars. Yes I'm a physicist and can easily understand how each part works and how the whole works. But I'll be damned if I'm going to spend time memorizing all the parts under the hood. I put gas in, turn the key - if it purrs, it's working; if not, someone needs to fix it. I do try to do all the repairs on my bicycle, though.

But, but, but .. what about for the cookie cake?  Were you just leading me on?  Where is the report button?  Pretty sure this is a banning offense around here.

That's the exception to the rule.
And the cake is a cake. The coffee adds to the flavor, but it's not the flavor.

Like cheese is good, and banana is good...mix them together and you get something delicious that's neither of them!

And I've heard of a few other cakes and candies that require some liquor in them...and they just wouldn't be the same without that.
