I'm pretty sure I disclaimed 2G1C.
My memory is that you said you weren't clicking on the link. That was enough warning for me. I've manage to avoid seeing it thus far.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I ate half the avocado with lime and salt and half with sugar.
And yeah, avocados are one of the things that I turn my nose up at since they didn't grow on my grandmother's tree, but it was still good. Just not life-changingly good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fully admit never being to Jamaica.
What the fuck is your problem, woman? Time it right, and you can have pear from our back yard.

I did end up looking. It's worse than goatse, because it moves. It goes on and on. And there's only the 1C.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
You just say that because you've never had the buttery goodness of a fresh-from-the-tree Jamaican pear.
I am so willing to try this too.
Mmmm, I love avocados. I even like only decent ones. But good avocados are bliss.

Do your parents take in strays? More important, will they let me nom a pear or lots and stay elsewhere while telling them they raised a lovely person? I WANT PEAR.
I am not even hungry but I am totally craving avocado like mad now.

Depending on when you go you can score, I think, pear, cherries, breadfruit, and at least three varieties of mango. Hmm. I think maybe also bananas and limes or oranges or grapefruits.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My sole experience with sublime avocados was Moz.
Apropos of nothing, 'moz' is Arabic for 'banana'.
More to the point, from my angle, bananas are Ryan's favourite fruit, and second word (after 'shoe'). And, thanks to the Queensland floods, now over $12/kilo.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Slicese of avocado, lightly breaded, fried quickly... litle crispy outside, warm and melty inside. They were wooooonderful.
God that sounds heavenly. Now that I'm feeling better I would actually be able to taste them, you know, if I actually had some.
My dog is sitting in his kennel keening for something, and I can't figure out what it is. It seems to be under his bed or behind the kennel. I'm sure he is terribly frustrated with his stupid human.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Somehow I've successfully avoided watching 2G1C, and I'd like to hold onto my innocence for as long as I can.
Forget about seeing it! I could never bring myself to watch it. But even reading a description of it... I've already been utterly sullied.
Crap. I have to grade now.
