I can do without the odd grainy texture of boiled egg yolk. There is only one application where that texture doesn’t annoy me, Potato salad.
Puly, check out David Chang’s recipe for slow poached eggs.
ETA: I agree its totally impossible to have a hard boiled egg come out with a slightly soft yolk combined with an undercooked white.
RIght there wit ya, except I cant stand any sort of egg. Its the sulfuric Hell Smell that gets me, and it keeps on giving: DH smells like sulfuric rot after eating them PLUS making the house smell like HELL!
Eggs are amazing. I love them hard boiled with salt and pepper. I love them basted and runny. I love them scrambled or in omlets. I love deviled eggs. I love 'em in salads. I love them fried. I love them in sandwiches and runny just like Nzinga described.
Ooo…that looks tasty. Gonna have to try it at least once, although waiting 45 minutes for poached eggs is a bit much for me. 
I’m so impatient, I just steam my eggs, right out of the fridge, as it only takes a minute or two to get an inch of water up to boiling. About 5-6 minutes for perfect soft boiled eggs, and then maybe 10-12 (depending on size of egg) for hard boiled.
After poaching them like that, you can also fry them in a ripping hot pan for a few seconds per side. It’s excellent.
I know what you mean. Scrambled eggs are a-okay with me. Deviled eggs are great. Won’t do anything else though. I’m big on texture and plain yolk in all cooked forms is absolutely nasty. Scrambling mixes the yolk in which is why I can deal with it.
Even thinking about a runny yolk in a regular fried egg or a softboiled egg makes me want to retch right now. Even the yolk in a hard boiled egg is hard to stomach.
Ugh. I love eggs of all kinds and preparations except for this one. Hard boiled eggs are great when they’re still warm from the pot. But cold hard boiled eggs are just gross to me for some reason.
Speaking of eggs, I got a few chickens recently, and fresh-from-the-butt eggs from backyard hens are the most delicious thing ever. I wish I could eat a dozen a day.
Ah, then there is hope for you. 
You understand part of what makes it great. Now, since I know you like Thai food, try it with some basil chicken. Other than tasting great with the chicken, I’ve found that requesting a fried egg on top makes the cook believe my request for “Thai spicy” all the more at a restaurant I’m not a regular at.
Yes, you are. And you shall die alone.
And children shall pelt your corpse with eggs when they bury you in a shallow grave on a free range chicken egg farm.
Baked eggs (shirred?) are not good. They look good but they’re not.
I love eggs myself, but my older sister can’t stand 'em in any form (except as an ingredient in, say, cake.)
No, you’re not.
I’ll go a bit further than you did, in fact: I dislike scrambled eggs and omelettes as well as fried and boiled eggs. I don’t have a particular problem with the odor, I just don’t like the taste or texture. It’s not that they’re horrifying, just sort of vaguely unpleasant.
As far as I’m concerned, the only fit use for them is as an ingredient in baked goods.
You’re all kinds of wrong.
Eggs!
Yeah, shirred eggs are delicious, but a little bit fussier than I like my eggs to be. Same with poached eggs. Love the damn things, just too much trouble to get em going, so I make 'em over easy or steam basted. I like my eggs from fridge to table within 5 minutes. But if someone is serving them to me? Yes, please.
Going to slide this over to Cafe Society.
For me, the fussiest part of poaching is waiting for the water to simmer. After that, they’re done in 3 minutes. I usually do them when I have other things for breakfast that take some time. Or, I like them over a salad at lunch.
I sorta agree. I wouldn’t eat any eggs but scrambled and omelets until I was an adult, where is will now eat very fresh eggs that are boiled. I still cannot stand fried. Yuck.
Yes.
