I love olives and will serve them at my F2F this summer.

Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I like olive oil just fine, but olives themselves -- ick. The taste is all wrong, and I aint a fan of the texture neither.
I say this as someone who likes brined artichoke hearts, pickles, and even assorted "wait, you don't pickle that!" pickled things (twist my arm and I will admit I don't actively dislike pickled beets; I just don't see a reason why a perfectly good beet deserves pickling). Also you know what? "Pickle" is just a fun word.
In my childhood, it was generally acknowledged that olive loaf is the most disgusting thing in the world. Did that law get revoked when I wasn't looking? How is olive salad different, except inasmuch as it is not loafy?
So, without the olive hoo-ha, a muffaletta is basically an Italian cold cut sandwich on steroids?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Does this make the pimento the willie?

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
How can you hate olives if you've never had one?
I have my ways. Kristin, if I can make to the rumpus, and if they are there, I might give up my toddler ways and try one.
But it's a long shot.

I thought it was in July. I could be on crack. Lemme check ...
ETA: In news of the good, I am not on crack. Beep Me tells me her visa interview is on 7/12.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
No olives. I swell up from them, because of the brine used. The oil is splendid.
No capers, because I really, really swell up from them.
And no pimientos, because they're gross and disgusting.
I just pick those off the muffy and pig down on it.

Herding cats for fun
How can you people drink martinis without olives? My goodness.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
and even assorted "wait, you don't pickle that!" pickled things
Like Rasputin's wang?
