I can see root beer being an acquired taste, but something tells me it's a lot less of an effort to acquire than a taste for Casu marzu.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hmm. The dancer thing had me hypnotized for a while. At first it never changed at all. Looking at the shadow made no difference. It was finally when I focused on her landing foot that I saw anything. Then whammo, she was going in the opposite direction. Then I was able to change it at will.

I use RSS, but I don't count 'cause I am a geek. I was online as early as '80, but an an enfant. Then my lost career opportunities slipped away as I played Oregon Trail instead of programming Turtle for years. I came back online in about '90 briefly, then again in '93 to stay.

am I a total Luddite because I don't know exactly what RSS is? I know that it's a way to have a blog from another site delivered to you (sort of), but only vaguely. i.e. I have an RSS feed for one of my friends' blogs to my LJ, but I don't really understand how it works.

Seriously? Who doesn't like root beer? (Go on, I know you're out there...)

I don't like root beer. It tastes like how I imagine satan's armpit would taste.

but I love cilantro like crazy and I don't mind grapefruit either.

Dog is my co-pilot.

I like root beer but seldom consume soft drinks. Too sweet. I like cilantro but my sister thinks it tastes like soap. I love grapefruit and add a little salt now even though I grew up sugaring it. Of course I grew up putting sugar on tomatoes, too. Yuk. I don't put sugar on anything anymore.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I love root beer. Cilantro tastes like soap. Olives taste like Satan's ass crack.

Cash is clearly a supertaster, in that she tastes everything right.
