MollyL

What's with people here hating beverages? I don't like wine, but I don't hate it.

10:28 am

hokie carla

I can say for sure I hate beer. even when I could drink it I found it very gross.

10:29 am

penquis

carla!

10:31 am

hurshy

i am guessing i WOULD hate absinthe, since i found out it is anise-flavored and i hate all things anise-flavored

10:32 am

Kaplan the Magne

Anise- yuck

10:33 am

welki

and i could see me in one of those impressionist paintings, in a flouncy dress, passed out, drooling, from too much absinthe

10:33 am

hokie carla

isn't that like licorice? pretty sure I would hate that too.

10:33 am

hurshy

yes, like licorice

10:33 am

hokie carla

I also hate tea. take that brits!

10:33 am

hokie carla

pen!

10:33 am

hurshy

to me anise is a flavor that says "i am toxic, don't consume me"

10:34 am

penquis

I don't mind eating licorice, but i hate anything with that flavor in it....same with bananas....

10:34 am

welki

<-- sees anisette with an alice in wonderland sign that says, 'drink me'

10:35 am

penquis

i can say that i disklike tea.....i can drink some herbal teas but i don't choose to very often.....

10:35 am

hokie carla

I love artificial banana flavor

10:35 am

rururocks

I like anise and fennel

10:35 am

hokie carla

but it is polarizing

10:35 am

hurshy

well you all know i love tea

10:35 am

rururocks

artificial banana flavoring is unappeeling to me

10:35 am

welki

mmmm ... the best artifical banana flavor, i think, was in those taffy lollipops

10:36 am

hokie carla

y'all, I am currently hoping I would just throw up. motion sick from watching the tour de france.

10:36 am

penquis

not a fennel fan either....in recent years it has been a fad of sorts to put fennel in when cooking mussels....not a fan....

10:36 am

welki

b b bats!

10:36 am

hurshy

well don't watch then, just listen to the commentary or whatever

10:37 am

welki

these! https://tinyurl.com/bdhkpf7u

10:37 am

hokie carla

I was trying to look away

10:38 am

hokie carla

most of it I can watch, it's the moto views that wreck me

10:38 am

penquis

not a fan, welki....would try a chocolate one though.. ;o)

10:38 am

hurshy

i can't deal with first-person view video games, whether it's mario kart or whataever

10:39 am

hokie carla

yeah, my kids always made fun of me with mario kart

10:39 am

hurshy

i mean, getting motion sick is just... so not something a person has control over!

10:40 am

hurshy

dumb to make fun of someone for it

10:40 am

hokie carla

lol, have you ever met kids before

10:40 am

periwinkle

hi all. I do not like anise or fennel but I do like licorice candy

10:40 am

periwinkle

do not like beer

10:41 am

penquis

hi peri...

10:41 am

hokie carla

they also think I'm faking it half the time because they don't understand how certain motion could possibly make someone sick. the oldest has a bit of motion sickness issues, so he's a little more understanding.

10:41 am

hokie carla

hey peri

10:42 am

hurshy
