I love the red button.
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Why was I not informed about the banana twinkies?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Whether or not you believe him is a whole separate issue.
Eh, he's probably gilding the lilly. What would he say alternatively? "Oh, it tastes pretty good, but mostly I want a bunch of write-ups and to see what yuppies I can gouge!"
So much of "this is the finest " be it food or clothes or art is hype anyway. Lilly gilding is part of the game.

I can even taste it if I eat just the beef in beef & brocolli, because the flavor's worked it's way into the sauce.
I support you on this. Not with brocoli in particular, though it's right on the border of what I can swallow, but some foods taint everything they touch. Peanuts are the worst. If you stack a chocolate chip cookie on a peanut butter cookie, the chocolate chip cookie will smell like peanut butter and I can't eat it. And I will be very sad as a result.
The seafood conversation made me want lobster. Actually, I've vaguely wanted to have lobster for a while, but I feel much more vehement about it now.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
The red button is the best thing ever.

At least with the Kobe beef, you're pretty sure you're avoiding mad cow issues....

Mmmmmm. Peanuts. I love me some nut-like legumes. But it's true - you can taste peanuts in anything they come in contact with. I think coconut is similar.

Peanuts are the worst.
I'd have to put up onions and garlic up against peanuts. At the bagels shop, we always tried to leave a bin or two empty between the onion, garlic and everything bagels and everything else. Even then, by close? You could taste (or smell) a hint of garlic in the chocolate chip bagels (I know, I think they are gross too) which were kept the furthest away.
Also? Oregano does this. Last week, my ham & cheese sandwiches all had an unexpected but pleasent hint of something that didn't usual to ham & cheese. When I was putting away my groceries, I discovered an abandoned sprig of neglected fresh oregano in the back of the drawer where I'd been storing the bread (in two plastic bag) and the ham and cheese (both in ziplocs.) It went THROUGH the plastic.

Me too. I'm tempted to go hit Lobsterfest.
