Lootequiette: Pmann's Totally Original/Unaffiliated Thread

Wine lovers… please explain why? What is it? How is something wet… well, so dry? It doesn’t make me not thirsty. It’s like liquid cotton.

You must be a hit in PMs!

I am a delight.

Presumably you're talking about red wine? Wine isn't any more of a diuretic, per alcohol content, than anything else, but the tannins in red wines act as an astringent on the salivary proteins (or some such) and cause dry mouth.

With the exception of pic swapping I agree with everything said by everyone so far.

For today… I hate wine. I know everyone else loves it. And being that I’ve got class oozing out of my arse, I should love it. I should be one of those people who sniffs it and pretends like that does something. Alas, I am not. It’s the only thing I’ve ever drank that makes me even thirstier. It’s bizarre. But everyone who adults says wine is amazing. And it’s delicious and you pair it with this and that. But I just don’t get it.

So what is it that everyone else thinks is hot shit, but you are just meh about?

I'm with you on the wine. Fucks with my head badly after just a sip. Someone told me, go take a bloody aspirin. So no, I'll be happy with beer, or whiskey, martinis, g&t or whatever. No wine though.

I don't do sodas. Cokes, Pepsis, Dews, all that shit. Yuck. Sickly sweet when cold. Nasty as hell when room temp or hotter.

I'm probably one of the few that prefers the cheap wines. Everything else is too bitter or dry for me. Obviously, my favorites would be the kinds that are the worst for me I do not like Red Wine.
I have a couple bottles of wine that I bought a long time ago. I'll save those for when Fara comes. I don't drink much anymore.

Also Paris, France. Who cares?

Ditto. So gross.

Eh. I found Parisians to be rude, generally speaking.

I detest white “chocolate”. But, if someone was to coat his stick in it, I’d lick it.

What if he stuck it in peanut butter and jelly?

 

[Mrtenant]

My mom has really turned me off from certain fishy things. Like, she’ll eat octopus tentacles raw..omg. I’m gagging just thinking about it. Fuckkkk

Sounds like a whataburger day.

Cultural trends coming from US.

Edit: Except for jeans. I do love them.

Red wine is the worst culprit. It certainly tastes drier than white. But white wine is also no thirst quencher. When I’m eating dinner, I need something to make me less thirsty after shoving an entire Bloomin’ Onion in my face. The sodium gods need to be quenched.

No shit! I admit, the Eiffel Tower was kind of cool. Other than that, it was not so special.

Do you have any idea how many French people are in France? Those cheese eating surrender monkeys. (It’s a joke, people. Please don’t send the FCLU on my case. And it’s okay for me to make that joke because my best friend is French Fries.)

We have contributed a few cultural trends worth noting. Like cars and electricity. Ya know, nothing big though.

Also, I really should use the multi-quote more. But I rarely expect you all to have such good posts. Last night you knocked it out of the park. Well done peeps.

Like wearing socks with sandals? Sporting a belt and suspenders at the same time? The “dicky” (aka the mock turtleneck)?

Also referred to as “Dad Fashion” or “The Ned Flanders”.

I knew you couldn't resist. So easy to trigger.

Wait, I don't think I know "dicky". lol
Why mock turtleneck?

So you can have the layered look of a turtleneck without being too hot. Genius!

WTF?! No, I don't think I've ever seen this before. lol
Why?! Porqué?!

I said the EXACT same thing the first time I saw Birkenstocks. I assumed the person was simply from a region where there were no shoe stores and they fashioned those out of the only scraps of hideous materials they could find.

Mock turtlenecks are kind of like a half circumcised cock. Not full blownsies like a no collared shirt, but not full skin like a turtle neck.

 

[Lord Pmann]

@Orchidea73 is obviously the fashion expert here (second to me, of course). She brings up a good point. Mock turtlenecks are fucking weird.

Fashion changes over time. What’s amazing today is hideous tomorrow. Some things are always ugly (I’m looking at you, mom jeans).

What fashion trend have you been guilty of adopting that was hideous? What fashion trend just makes you want to hurl when you see it?

Bonus points if you provide pics of yourself wearing the hideous garb.

I never thought these were a real thing besides Howard on Big bang.

I always said that no matter how old I got. I'd always try and understand fashion choices. Even if I couldn't/wouldn't do it. But I will NEVER understand the pants down to your knees, underwear hanging out look. I'm from the 80s damn it. I wore some funky clothes. But I cannot understand that. Even for comfort. How. Just how.
