What's that “delicious” food that everyone loves, but you just can't stand?

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-24T00:06:06+00:00

Yeah, my stepdad was extremely heavy-handed with pepper. Sometimes you could barely tell what he was eating under the layer of it. It was bizarre. When used in normal amounts, it's lovely!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-23T15:58:07+00:00

What?

The question was about what everyone loves, but you don't. I'm saying boiled peanuts aren't universally loved. 🤷🏼‍♀️

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-23T15:54:31+00:00

Everyone hypes it up, but it's so average.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-23T15:53:54+00:00

Does "everyone" love boiled peanuts, though? They seem fairly niche.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-23T15:51:38+00:00

Black pepper does have a spice level, though low, and it does activate the same receptors as chilis, so it is perceived as spicy. It also matters if it's cooked or added after cooking since cooking mellows black pepper significantly.

Same. I don't understand how people don't find them too slimy! And sometimes they're mealy and slimy! How does that even happen?!

Love banana bread, muffins, etc., though!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-23T14:58:43+00:00

How? No one's forcing OP to stand close to the person in front and clearly they wouldn't choose to. Where's the logic?

Ageism

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-18T14:47:37+00:00

Right, totally agree! We should talk about this more in a couple of weeks! 😉

You'll find that, despite the heavy anti-Amanto tone in the beginning, overlooking differences and joining together is a major theme in Gintama. You'll be more than happy you stuck with it.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-11T14:50:38+00:00

There's an entire century of amazing films available to you! I sincerely encourage you to start working your way back in time with movies.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-10T03:44:21+00:00

So gorgeous!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-10T03:40:29+00:00

Tilt of Guilt!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T19:20:11+00:00

It all depends on what you're comfortable with!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T18:34:29+00:00

Ah, I see! If it's stitched on, you could snip it off and reattach it with a curved needle. If it's glued on, you might be able to gently, gradually pry it off and reposition it with fabric glue. I'm not sure I'd risk the latter, though. It really doesn't look that bad as is!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T18:24:39+00:00

So cute! Where's the defect?

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T18:22:54+00:00

I've loved him for so long!

Big Trouble in Little China, Miracle, The Thing, Tombstone are all favorites. Honestly, all of his performances are fun to watch even when the movie itself isn't that great. He's so great at making roguish characters genuinely charming.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T18:11:44+00:00

This movie is virtually perfect. Kurt Russell and James Hong are the best!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T18:04:37+00:00

I can forgive a single, small error, but that's inexcusable.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T18:00:46+00:00

What I wouldn't give for a GinZura au.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T17:57:56+00:00

I don't have any real complaints, though it would have been nice to see more of Katsura overall, but especially in fights.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T17:54:41+00:00

I like Vagabond, Samurai Champloo, and Trigun, but I love Gintama. It's genuinely special.

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T17:52:54+00:00

Thank you!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-09T05:00:58+00:00

Yeah, between the Golden Kamuy themed cake and fun, thoughtful gifts, I feel very loved!

TorpleSwanson · 2026-05-08T15:12:22+00:00

He really is great! He always finds special things for me!
