If I asked you how you pronounced "tsk," what would you tell me?
Heh. I neither always tell the truth nor always lie. So if I answered that it wouldn't help you.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I identify with Spidey. What does that mean about me?
You're a big old loser?
I kid.
Or, as my completely statistically invalid research shows, more likely to be an outsider, and not by design (though there's no reason not to be content with it).
Same thing with shrimp/prawns
You don't think shrimps and prawns taste similar? What tastes more like a prawn than a shrimp? Or vice versa?

I think that who you identify with (if you identify easily -- Wolverine is also a perfectly viable answer to "Which one of Superman, Batman, and Spiderman do you prefer?" when paired with a quizzical look) is very interesting. I've found kravvers don't even breathe before claiming Batman.
Huh. Any other profession/art where you've seen that sort of lopsided response?

Swiss cheese is rank. RANK, I tell you.
ita is wise.
I [hatey icon] swiss cheese.
Betsy is also wise.
Lee is wrong. SWISS CHEESE ROCKS.
Kat? NSM.
I just placed my dinner order. Oddly enough, I decided to order pizza.

More Spiderman in IT, I've found, though it's not as conclusive. Wolverine gets a pretty decent write-in vote, and seems to be from fairly confident type.
And very few Supermen. But they seemed to be split pretty clearly between people who are identifying with Clark and people who are identifying with Kal El. And none of them are identifying with any of the things I think make him interesting.
I'm pretty sure this'd fall right apart in a true fanboy environment.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Lee is SO INCREDIBLY WRONG ABOUT SWISS CHEESE.

Maybe I've been buying the wrong types. To me shrimp always tastes salty or bland. Prawns have a real seafood flavor - some richness. Huh. I just though you were a supertaster and me with weak tastebuds. Buf if I'm tasting differences you aren't, I guess that explaination was too simple; stuff just tastes different to us.

Swiss cheese is great on a croissant with ham or turkey and mustard. But I imagine it would be pretty skeevy melted onto pizza crust in large quantities. It's kind of a thin, bitter taste that works best in counterpoint to lots of sweet heartiness.
My vote for ultimate pizza is the stuffed spinach variety from Giordano's

I wouldn't use Swiss on a pizza, but in a sandwich? Nummy.
