Things that put you off something you like...

[Eliza.D]

I once was with a child who described fried mushrooms as dead black butterflies. He Said 'I aint eating no dead black butterfly'. Didn't really put me off but I always remember what he said when I see fried mushrooms.

These guys have put me off premiership football, or vice versa, I'm not sure yet

I am ok with fish but hate the skin!

When David Beckham opens his mouth...

If I think long and hard about what eggs are I can't eat fried eggs..and when you break the shell and there's that stringy white bit attached to the yolk..what is that??

PJ Harvey's mini-whoops. She's almost spoiled a wonderful album with those annoying little Bjorkgasms.

[mockney piers]

Weirdly I feel the same way about that bloke going 'these are the words, these are the words, the words that maketh murder' in that sort of nursery rhyme fashion, it pretty much ruins the song for me, but not the album.

Oh god, reading this I can relate to pretty much everything, food-wise anyway.

Bleeeuuuuuch. Cottage cheese, ugh, mushrooms, ugh, canned beans, ugh (yep, I remember the mouse story too), eggs. Definitely eggs. And fish. Definitely prawns.

My friend says he used to love tuna sandwiches that his gran made when she used to stay over to look after him. Except when he subsequently discovered she'd been using the 'cat' fork all along. The one that his family kept specifically for cat food. I presume it was clean but even so...

(And I have to admit, I am wondering if Huguenot is just getting Strafer back for the scientology thing). Or is that really true? :))

[Huguenot]

Can't remember, which thing? I have been known to nurse grudges, but must have forgotten one with Strafer ;-)

Mmmm, babies fingers.. *slurps*

I need to be put off chocolate and wine - anyone got a suitable story?

This isn't food or something I particularly enjoy but is necessary; at night if I wake up and need a wee I'm always scared a rat is going to pop up and bite me as I read a man had his dinkle bitten when having a poo.

Overindulgence whilst slobbing out on the sofa, can turn the sofa "manky". ;-)

PS: I shall never forget that post...it made me laugh SO much!

[sophiesofa]

ha ha ha! But why is my current sofa ok then?

[Laddy Muck]

You obviously aren't drinking THAT much wine then! :)-D

And you have one of those do you "sophiesofa"

This forum never fails to suprise me.

Nette:-S

[Laddy Muck]

Don't you have a dinkle, Nette?

[sophiesofa]

You're right LM I should drink more wine.

Nette, no I don't need a dinkle for a tinkle so am at less risk on the loo than a man, but i'm still scared.

[Moos]

Nah, not a rat Sophie, it's a giant spider.

Hope that helps.

[sophiesofa]

If I had to choose I would pick a giant spider, even if it was a leaping one. Maybe I should keep a heavy book on the cistern so I have a suitable squishing device. Possible a handy rat trap too.

[Moos]

How about cheese in the bowl so the rat will be distracted from going for your bits?

[sophiesofa]

Genius - attached to a string so it can't be flushed away! I will sleep soundly for the first time in years now ;)

[Moos]

My pleasure. Now if you could just pop round and feed the baby I can do the same. Nighty night!

Oooops, I think I got your post mixed up with Mockney P's scientology one....duh.

Mr Medic will no doubt be displeased when he sees that in the morning. Arf!

[Laddy Muck]

But a displeased Mr. Medic makes for highly amusing reading. Personally, I can't wait.

PS: maxxi, I've taken the liberty of making your scoop more visible. It simply wouldn't do for our dear Doctor to miss it on account of having forgotten his reading glasses.
