You know, if you deprive yourself of ice cream and other pleasures, you may not live longer, but it will certainly seem like it.
Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The only time co-workers ever commented on my food was to exclaim over my pretty tea pot and tea cup. Or my bento boxes. But no one ever made food police comments at me, which in retrospect is kinda odd.
the only comments I ever got on the food I ate at my desk were, "Damn, that smells soooo good. Where did you get that?"
That's pretty much the only kind of comment I hear (or make).
I will sometimes comment that someone's lunch looks or smells good, or ask them where they got something. Other than that, I figure they're old enough to make their own choices.
I did once make a sharp comment to a teenage "intern" who was checking the filling on every sandwich on a platter to see if there were any that appealed to her.
t ignoring the rageful food observers convo
Sparky, are they coming for Jazz Fest? There's lots of great food at the fest itself. Also in the FQ: Green Goddess, Felipe's Tacqueria for cheap, Sylvain, Mr. B's for BBQ shrimp and gumbo ya-ya, Irene's for Creole Italian, Muriel's, Stanley, Johnny's PoBoys, Central Grocery for muffaletta... across Canal Street, try Domenica, Sweet Olive, MiLa...
I've had to argue with coworkers about my largely futile efforts to get a sandwich without mayonnaise.
I hate mayo crimes. Made worse by the fact that people try to thrust that Miracle Whip nonsense without warning.
It's the 14th annual Mayo vs. Miracle Whip wars!
As I leave work, allow me to mention my heretical stance that I am quite fond of Miracle Whip, but also find mayo quite tasty.
Oh, yeah. I go both ways when it comes to condiments.
They both taste the same to me. Ugg. Hate mayo. Yes, cheese is enough for my sandwich. Yes I want it 'dry', thank you. Yes, I'm sure. (usual conversation with deli/Subway sandwich maker).
I hate Miracle Whip more than mayonnaise, but I don't want either on my sandwich. The only place for mayonnaise on a sandwich is the bare minimum it takes to hold together chicken salad.
