I will eat anything if someone else order something for me.
“Yes, that’ll be a large anchovy pizza with double extra anchovies, pineapple, and double jalapeños.”
Replace the fish with mushrooms and as long as the jalapenos are fresh, I am good. I get mushroom, pineapple, and pepperoni on mine with some ricotta and fresh mozzarella. If my stomach is up to it, I will add jalapenos. Add fresh basil and drizzle some balsamic glaze after.
I’m thankful I’m not a picky eater. I’ll eat anything and it’s the company that makes the biggest difference for me when eating out. On the other hand, it makes it hard for me to lose weight.
jesus christ… this is the joke? this is the comic
This happened yesterday! As a Christmas gift, I got a book of Sunday comics.
As a group, from boomers to my under-10yo kids, we skimmed through it. The kids laughed at the weird abstract ones. I loved the ones with wordplay. My neighbor in her 60s laughed at the husband/wife joke.
Found it really fascinating how no comic made everyone laugh at the same time.
The one everyone agreed was a good comic, I’m even though it wasn’t funny, was the “peeing in the pool” comic. Relatable brings us all together.
My wife and I are stuck in a perpetual battle. Nothing ever sounds good to her, and everything sounds good to me.
Wife and I solved this by rule of 3. She gets to decide if she’s suggesting options or making a choice. Whoever is suggesting options gives 3 choices. They must be something the other potentially likes. The other then either chooses one of the three or has to suggest 3 choices of their own. We rarely have to go past the original 3 options any more.
She tries to be like me. “I dont care, i just want you to pick.”
Mexican? No. Indian? No. Italian? No. Sushi? No.
Oh so you do care. This is why you always pick. I will eat anything at any time.
So she just needs to throw out ideas, problem solved!
Jk I have this problem too. I want things riiiiiight up until they are on my plate ready to be eaten. Then I lose interest.
It’s worse with going to eat, because the work involved in cooking really cements me to eating that thing.
Okay but like have you ever been in that situation where you genuinely can’t think of a place that doesn’t sound good so you say that then the person you’re with suggests fucking Long John Silvers.
that then the person you’re with suggests fucking Long John Silvers.
Shit. I am that guy.
I say the worst possible ideas out of my head for laughs.
One time, I said PF Chang’s AS A JOKE. And everyone politely agreed and we went to PF Fucking Chang’s and it was the grossest Chinese food I ever ate. I FAFO myself.
I like the idea of Long John Silver’s, I’m just not a fan of the implementation.
Isn’t that kinda true for all fast food these days? If time travel existed I’d use it to try fast food back when it was supposed to be good to see if memory lives up to the hype.
I don’t think that even exists here (it probably does, but it’s a minor option) but that’s probably because literally everywhere around here does fish on Friday (year round and way better than fast food but also usually fairly cheap) and a lot of places do on Wednesday as well.
And during lent, fish is always available. Chain fish places do very poorly here, other than like crab, lobster, or sushi.
Idk where you’re from, but it may also be a legal/health thing. Long John Silver’s is notoriously unhealthy, even by American standards. Idk how much they’ve improved in the last few years though, if at all.
Almost every sit-down chain restaurant in my state closed down/failing because of quality issues or local competition. Chili’s, Red Lobster, Long John Silvers, Applebee’s…
It was HUGE local news during the pandemic with franchises begging people to “Support their local Chili’s” and everyone laughed. Then one really loud owner bought lots of local ads that we don’t deserve it and the locals dunk on them.
As of last month, another chain restaurant faded away, while more local restaurants popped up.
Nature is healing.
I live in Wisconsin, I’m like pretty sure it probably exists, since we don’t care about our health (3 of the 4 drunkest cities in the US are within an hour drive of where I live, and it’s also the dairy capital and so we aren’t a healthy bunch overall) it’s just not a typical option since we have high standards for deep fried fish specifically.
