Cafe Society Confessions: What's yours?

I can’t stand coffee. Or any hot drink. The occasional hot chocolate, maybe. Tea? No. My tea better be one degree above the freezing point.

I don’t like it, or ketchup, either, and can detect them in microscopic amounts in food. I will eat things that contain them, but not on purpose.

I don’t like ketchup unless it’s mixed in with so much other stuff it’s just one small note in the entire flavor.

I am a terrific home cook and make almost everything we eat from scratch, up to and including fresh pasta.

Having said that, there are times when an ingot of Velveeta cheese finds its way into something, specifically in chicken spaghetti. But I’m still making the homemade cream of chicken soup for it. :smiley:

I’ve watched The Sopranos all the way through at least four times. The ending of the final episode was perfect.

I totally agree and don’t understand all the bitching.

I enjoy lots of different kinds of beer. Craft brews, micro brews, imports, you name it. And Budweiser is fine too. At a cookout on a blazing hot afternoon, a Bud really hits the spot.

I am a nerd and a movie fan, but I don’t like Jaws, Blade Runner, The Matrix, 2001 A Space Odyssey, or Jurassic Park.

^This.

Wore out a needle & a couple albums of ‘Who’s Next’ in High School.

Sometimes when there is a glass of red wine that has been poured a few days & is about to go sour…
I’ll dump it into a pot with a pat of butter and three table spoons of peanut butter and bring the whole thing to a slow simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Then I’ll pour and stir in red pepper flakes (like the kind to put on pizza?).

I’ll slow heat it for 5 more minutes and then pour the mix into a glass jar to cool.

The result is a Super Hot satay sauce that is both sweet and spicy… and will work on anything from hotdogs to re-heated London Broil.

I enjoyed the final episode of Seinfeld.

I can appreciate Karen’s voice. And also admire their talent for pop. But they were kind of cheesy. But Superstar is a great song.

I finally caught up on all of DA on Amazon (I’d started watching midway through s4). I won’t spoil the final episode for you other than to say that now I understand why people say it’s evident Jullian Fellowes was losing interest in the series.

Confession: Before Downton I hadn’t watched Masterpiece for nearly two decades. I still don’t because I’m usually asleep when it airs. Ergo, I’ll be watching Victoria on Amazon.

Madonna isn’t sexy. (She isn’t ugly, either.) She is the plain-looking girl who hung around sexy girls and wants to prove herself. Her looks, music, and schtick are all bland. A buddy once shoved her book of nude photos in my face and all I could think of was that she needed someone to wrap a warm quilt around her, give her a big steaming mug of hot-chocolate with marshmallows and whisper in her ear: “Your not all that . . . . just let it go…”

I’m the same (am surprised that it’s taken 132 posts to get round to Pratchett). Have tried a couple of his works: conclusion (pretty much expected) reached, was that I loathed them. Heavy as lead, and the complete opposite of funny. I like a good deal of comic / fantasy stuff; but Pratchett, just no. Compounded by the strong impression received, that he took himself with great seriousness, as the most terrific humorist in history. (In fairness, general picture is got that “in his private and personal capacity”, he was a very nice man.)

He shot and killed a handsome young stranger. A foul, evil deed it was.
mmm

Wrong. That was a duel, fair and square. Not the misdeed for which he met his doom.

I don’t like any kind of “hot” spicy food. That means I’m limited to mild peppers, mild chili and mild or sweet salsa. OTOH, I do like anchovies.

I couldn’t make it through Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and never even entertained the notion of trying to read it again.

I also think The Hobbit is FAR superior to the other Lord of the Rings books.

You’re not actually trying to suggest that they sent at least 17 armed men after a guy for horse-theft are you?

Sheriff: We got to get us up a posse and find that hombre
Deputy: Yeah, cain’t have people shooting each other down for having a drink with a woman. 'Tain’t right.
Sheriff: Naw, don’t care none about a dead feller. Sumbitch done stole a horse.

Er, I think it is you that is wrong. The narrator shot the wild young cowboy for flirting with Felina. Once this evil deed was done, he knew he had to haul ass before he got plugged:

mmm
