I hate it too, but the folks that love it get very sad if it isn't there.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Just yer family. We have the gelatinous can kind and the spoon eating kind with nutmeg and oranges in our usual family gatherings, but me? Hate em both. Don't like cranberries. Except Crasins. I like Crasins. But no cranberry sauce. Blech.

I hate it. Therefore, I see no pint in having it at my table.
This is the true awesome power of being the grown-up. I was pretty startled when I eventually realized that the reason I had no experience with liver (since it was one of the classic kid-hate foods) was because my mother didn't like it. So she didn't serve it. I was in awe.

I don't like cranberries, or cranberry juice, but would have to throw a wobbler if I was expected to eat turkey without cranberry sauce. Just no.

You should put a bowl of Craisins on the table for the people Robin doesn't like to hurt.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Cranberry sauce is to some people as mashed potatoes are to me--I MUST have it or it doesn't feel like Thanksgiving. Last year we went to a Foodie friend's feast and the food was magnificent, but no mashed potatoes, so I was very very sad. I want everyone who sits at my table to be happy at the end of the meal, and that includes having the--blechhh--cranberry sauce.

Snit fit; nappy attack; grumple. In short, get annoyed.

Throwing a wobbler is slightly more tantrum-y than being stroppy, as I understand it. Yes, I've heard Pete's mother apply both terms to him. Oh, did I laugh and laugh ...
