It's got to be better than Gramma's, because that was crap with melted marshmallows on top.
I've got an edge. Secret, secret recipe.
No one's ever turned my sweet potato pie down.
It's just not possible.
I would try it if I could. It bugs me that I don't universally like potatoes. It's my favorite vegetable.

I'm pretty sure I know what that is.
It's a euphemism, is what it is. A sweet, sweet, fantasy-inducing euphemism.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Some double entendres going on in here...
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I know. I was looking at the kudos button, deciding whether to give her one.

Nah, I'm actually talking about pie. The secret ingredients are just lemon extract, an ENTIRE stick of butter, and of course....love.

As in the McDonald's jingle: "I've loved in it"?

What...the phenobarbital?

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.
