Seriously! And we have not even begun to address their off-texture!

My sistah! They squeak when you bite into them. I don't want my food squeaking at me.

Teh yum=cilantro, root beer.

Teh yuck=grapefruit, olives.

Calamari=depends on freshness and how it's prepared. Hate rubbery and cannot eat those little pieces that look like a bunch of little tentacles. Rings only, please.

Well, the vs. commentators thought that there would be a new sponsor announcement on Sunday. Perhaps that was just pure speculation.

(My Boys is still very enjoyable.)

can someone just make up a chart at this point? seriously. when the discussion starts up we can just post it, save everyone else the need from posting how their tongue works and only the new folks to the discussion will need to chime in.

all of y'all crack me up with this.

I can see my problem with food. Given the right circumstance I can eat grapefruit, olives, rootbeer and cilantro.

However, I don't believe that the right circumstance would be in some mystery dish that combined all of those as ingredients.

Although, they should totally be in a mystery-box ingredients challenge on Top Chef.

I would love to see that.

I need to go to sleep. I don't really want to, but I need to. maybe I should just shower tonight.

Backatcha, mizzybelle!

Shower tonight. You'll sleep better. Plus, headstart on morning!

Or, in my case, when I brought meatspace friends into the internet.

Like me! Vortex got me to try TableTalk, way way back in 1999! Thanks, Vortex!!

One of the things that I love about the internet is that no matter where I am, I have a friend in 50 miles. When I first started doing a lot of work travel, I would bring work to do so I wouldn't get bored at night. I quickly stopped doing that because it was useless since I was always meeting/getting reacquainted with people from my threads.

Amen to this also. I've occasionally had bosses/coworkers who were very confused as to why, no matter where we went, I'd be like "Oh, sure, I have friends there!" They always are like "Uh, from school?"

How many of you who don't consider yourselves computer geeks know what RSS is and use it at least once a week? If you use a feed in LJ, this may be you.

This is me. I have several feeds on LJ. But every time I do it, i have to figure out/remember how. I've heard of RSS readers but don't know what they are. (I mean, I can figure out what they DO, but I couldn't name one, or work it)

It tastes like how I imagine satan's armpit would taste.

Ok, you are crazy! But sane, sleepseeking mom. STILL CRAZY...but I'll never offer you root beer. And not a bad mom. Stop that.

jesseh is a wonderful, cat-seducing (DEVI SLEPT WITH HER OMG), entertaining (and hopefully not lost in the wilds of B'more) houseguest, btw.

paperdol, my so-not-getting-it parents are (now, finally) entertained by your book. They get my life online so much more now(even as I've tried to explain over years and years [apparently, I'm not very articulate], and then as I invite online people to my family home over xmas....they don't quite get it. Love the people entirely, not sure of the connections that they came from.)

From my parents outsider perspective, one of the most powerful to the-do-not-get-its was the Internet Wants Your Daughter.

Though they found something familiar ( I love you, but I'm going to Albertsons ALONE said sara ) in Together, Alone. Which they already knew, but always need reinforcements. Believe me.
