Those who don't use them are the sort of naive futurists who think that we'd have banned war, poverty, and crappy popular music by now. They are intellectual failures, clockcuckooland residents, and the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

Wow. They really are for Americans.

Has anyone read about this? Mindblowing.

He hates curry that much? That's not just hate, that's oppression.

Well, it does have a strong smell. I think it's heavenly, but obviously he doesn't. And when you're in an Indian restaurant, you can't escape it.

Go,bot. Fight the power. I'm sure your parents God and Ayn Rand will totally understand. I do eat licorice a lot. Where else will I find candy black as my heart? Thanks, Deena. Maybe one day I'll write a book called So Lucky: a memoir of the jobless. It really does make me sad to hear that. But not half as much as when I got into a bus accident and everyone said "cha-CHING"(Not exactly like that, but like I'd gotten some kind of Leonard score or something...I could "be set for life".)

And when you're in an Indian restaurant, you can't escape it.

There's food I don't like, but there's only one food I dislike so much I can't be around the smell -- and I get mocked soundly for that.

For the record, I am officially at the end of my rope at work. If I could just walk out of here tonight with a simple "Fuck you, I quit" resignation Post-It I would have twenty minutes ago.

Now, the Dean has decided that the office does not dress "professional" enough. WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN?

That's not just hate, that's oppression.

I hate curry because, to me, it smells like feces and tastes like dirt.

When I was about 12, we had a neighbor who cooked with curry every night, or so it seemed. The smell was just omnipresent, but also stale and a bit burnt. I never even wanted to try it after that.

I have foods that affect me like that, ita. I liked curry all right but occasionally.

I dislike the curry smell when there's no curry around, but that goes for most food. My mother was most manic about that -- she lived in and around enough East Indian homes where the smell suffused everything that when we went househunting, houses with kitchens that had doors went to the top of the list.

We loves our curry -- it can just have a staying smell.

Smelling it on someone who hasn't had curry in hours or even days does freak me out.

The egg smell I can't do. Vomit will be in my future. The other smells, if the food is there, and it's not stale left over smell -- it's just stuff I don't want to eat.
