    - They stole the idea from Ohio republicans! -- nm - Spawn Aug 22, 08:52

        My taste buds handle that quite well on their own. Advantage of being a super taster . -- nm - Spawn Aug 22, 08:26
  - almost everything I eat is spicy. I think a bowl of my veggie chili would kill you. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 22, 08:23 2

      - eat them right away. they don't age well. -- nm - loosilu Aug 22, 08:25
      - I don't even get the fries anymore, too much food. - znufrii Aug 22, 08:24 3
        
        also, when I pay 3 bucks for a regular order of fries, you best give me a sack. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 22, 08:29 1
        
        this is true - znufrii Aug 22, 08:30

  - the image of the dude having a heart attack in Dumb and Dumber came to mind. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 22, 08:17 2
    - Throw in a bit of Oldman form Fifth Element and that was exactly how I pictured you. -- nm - Spawn Aug 22, 08:18 1
      - I was thinking Oldman from Leon ... *crunch,tilt head up, inhale deeply* -- nm - Beryllium Aug 22, 08:58

  - I will have no lip from you on food choices. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 22, 08:12 8
    - You won't see me eating something that can do that. -- nm - Spawn Aug 22, 08:13 7
      - Right. Ketchup never tries to murder you. -- nm - spamlet Aug 22, 08:17 6
        
        just your tastebuds. -- nm - Reagen Aug 22, 08:25
