Weta Digital came out of the computer work done on The Frighteners, but Weta Workshop came out of Richard Taylor's work on Meet the Feebles and Braindead.

Okay, very PJ then. Cool.

I dislike olives because they're fibrous balls of salt deposits. I guess they also taste bitter, but I don't get that far into them.

it should be more like a handicap

No shit.

Mushrooms? Perhaps I just average out--most mushrooms don't taste like much to me. I love their texture, though, which is why I eat them. Coffee and beer--those are on the list too, right? Definitely less tolerant of those than most people.

Right, and same here. There should be a comprehensive list somewhere, but I've only found what's supposed to be on the supertaster hit list through bits and pieces here and there.

t issues

I mostly like grapefruit, but if the non-ruby-red variety isn't properly ripe, the bitter is almost soapy.

Green olive= eyeaugh. Black are ok.

Vinegar often makes my mouth want to turn inside out and my cheeks climb on top of my head, but as a component to something else, I'm mostly ok with it. But not in pickled herring. = eyeaugh. Brussel sprouts are eyeaugh and bitter to boot. I sometimes don't like raw green bell peppers. Most of the time, actually.

And cilantro is nummy.

I could live in a world without sushi, mouthfeel issues. This applies to a lot of other things, including puddings and flan.

And a meal can't be all white or have too many colors.

And beer is gross and smells funny. t /issues

My mild headache is caused by a welt or zit in an entirely new place. Ouch.

(I hate that term; it makes it sound like one is calling oneself a superhero; it should be more like a handicap),

Hey, with great power comes great responsibilty.

I love everything that you people hate, especially salt and vinegar. Especially together!!

I love everything that you people hate

Same here. Except for beer. Beer is ooky, and I don't understand why people drink it.

YOU have the power to taste gross things and not be felled!

ION, the interwebs are thwarting me in finding a tube of a particular discontinued lipstick by Urban Decay. I thought I could find everything on the interwebs, damn it.

Salt and vinegar are each other's best hopes.

Even so...I think it's only with the potato they achieve true tastiness.

Oh, and Allyson, I think that your press release is wonderful. Please don't freak out too much about writing blurb letters.

Ah, even better, I have the power to have them not taste gross!

Except for beer. Beer is ooky, and I don't understand why people drink it.

I can even deal with (many kinds) of beer now.
