There are female ginko trees on my block. I need no stink-o-cam.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Oh man! When I lived in DC, there lined my street and pretty much my entire walk to school. I can remember not really knowing about them until I stepped on a piece of the fruit. When I got to class, I smelled so bad I had to leave after 10 minutes.
We called them Stinky Fruit Trees until we learned what they were. Ugh.

When I lived in Malaysia, there was a shop selling durian fruit a street over. Speaking of stinky fruit trees.

Our wings are not tired.
Also, that Nadal kid has pretty arms.
It was an exciting match. My kids are convinced I watch all sporting events for the arms (and legs). I'm not convinced they're wrong. Tomorrow night the Heat, Alonzo, mmmm.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Durian fruit tastes good, though, doesn't it? (I've never had it.)

Ooo! Vomit custard fruit!
My stomach is curdling at the very thought.

I'm just thankful that all the greenery around my complex wards off the delightful eau de drogué vomissant sur le trottoir from the rehab center next door.
On that happy note, must get cleaned up so I can go out for a bacon, avocado, and tomato sandwich.

It tastes like custard with vomit extract.
It may be better if it's fresher, or if one has a less sensitive nose than I have, but I've heard mixed reports. It is, however, the worst thing I ever put in my mouth.

Yup, vomit custard fruit. When I was a kid, my granny described the smell as 'unwashed lady parts'. I think it's more of a clogged drains kind of an odour myself.
It tastes kind of like honeyed custard, but still fruity. It's supposed to be one of those 'love it or loathe it' things, but the few times I had it I was distinctly meh about the whole thing.

I have no stinkfruit stories.
