Ahhhh, eurrrgh….
Discussion
In the gym and was idly watching one of the tellies between sets.
Saw a metal band on there, then they mentioned on the captions they are a Christian band, and though I am sure they are good, it just made me grimace, Heavy metal isn’t really me a to be all godly.
Got me thinking, other things you think “cool” and another word spoils it.
Beer - zero alcohol
Restaurant - Vegan
Sure there are loads of others
From childhood
Toys - wooden
Video game - educational
Any more,
Other than, PH post - J4CKO

Xmas / Birthday Presents - "We've bought you a surprise"
An old one - Disney on TV in the 70's - after the introduction (castle, fairy, princess, wonderful world of Disney etc.) it turns out the be a film and not a cartoon.
I'm mostly with you on the Disney one but some of the films were quite good if I remember correctly, there was one on gliders featuring the X-15 rocket powered research aircraft which I'd love to see. Xmas / Birthday Presents - "We've bought you a surprise"

Fizzy drink - Sugar free. So it will taste of horrible chemical, no thanks.
And while I'm on the topic, what the hell have they done to Mars bars ? Tried one the other day for the first time in probably 20 years and they are utterly different.
No throbbing vein on top, the caramel was lacklustre and the nougat tasted weird and not as malleable or sweet. I was so annoyed by it all I couldn't tell you if the chocolate was not as good as it was masked by the rest of the poor experience. Plus it was tiny.
In a blind test I tell you i was eating a family shopper knock off version.

Normally an educational nature film just as I was teed up for two cartoon characters bashing hell out of each.Mr Penguin said:
Anything which is a non-alcoholic version of an alcoholic drink is terrible. I would rather have water or Coke than non-alcoholic beer or wine.
I can't stand sweet soft drinks, there are a couple of non alcoholic beers that I'd rather have over generic British brewed lager.Gassing Station | The Lounge | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
