That may be true, but you need to confess something, anything. Even if it’s something like not liking cold ketchup on hot fries. Come on now, don’t be bashful.

DocWard Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Hmmm... I consider Kenny Loggins' music one of my guilty pleasures. One of my greatest fears is that if and when my daughters get married, they'll want House at Pooh Corner for the father-daughter dance. I'll be bawling, and they both know it.

I am a very technical player & Baroque is my very favorite, but Grandson #2 gets jazz and has the saxophone to prove it. He is, fortunately, not above Classical/Romantic cello.

Subdeacon Joe Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I don't like super hot foods. Like the craze for things like Ghost Peppers or Carolina Reapers. Fresnos, jalapenos, serranos, that is about as hot as I'll go. And the serranos is small quantities in a batch of salsa/pico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylan Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I get annoyed by virtue signaling. I like dogs better than cats, but cats still seem to like me, can't count the number of times someone with a cat said, as a cat jumped in my lap, that's odd they don't usually like people. I have no use for golf either watching or playing. I like 1911's better than Glocks but I have Glocks also and often carry one. I am annoyed by pasta when it isn't cooked al dente and by meatballs that are flavorless balls of bread and/or chewy. I also don't like being told to do anything.

Pat Riot Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I do not like professional sports. I actually like some Disco, mostly for the memories. Like Whiskey Hicks, I have been sober for a while now also, but for six years. Me and alcohol had a toxic love affair, but I broke it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I'll eat salsa, but I don't like raw tomatoes on sandwiches or by their selves. I will not knowingly consume something with mayo in or on it. I like talking about guns, working on guns, buying and selling guns, loading ammo for guns...but I really love shooting guns. My brother died of cirrhosis of the liver brought on by years of excessive alcohol consumption. I've never been a heavy drinker, but I still drink a few beers and a shot or two of hard liquor a week.

Cyrus Cassidy #45437 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I like professional wrestling No, I'm not kidding, I actually like it. And yes, I'm a bit of an intellectual (I start work on my THIRD master's degree in August!!!). I can read Shakespeare and watch professional wrestling in the same day, and not feel guilty about it.

I enjoy poetry, from Shakespeare, to Tennyson and Keats, to Frost and others. We had Tennyson's Crossing the Bar at my father-in-law's memorial service, and I would like the same at mine. (Does that count as a confession? I think so!) I don't care so much for more modern poetry. Jazz, on the other hand, I enjoy from time to time.

Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 The odd spelling of the last name of my alias speaks to the 23+ years I abused alcohol. (Think Foster Brooks). The 26 years since are a gift from a Higher Power. I like catsup and tomato soup but will not touch a raw tomato. The only musical instrument I ever wanted to play was a church pipe organ.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 The lady upstairs said I could use her grill. Figured I’d make some beer an chickens, one for them because it’s their grill. I knew they’d offer to pay me so I said $7. what’s the confession? I didn’t realize I can’t buy a can of beer for a dollar anymore. second confession, the recipe only needs half a can of beer, I’ll repurpose an empty soda can by filling it half full of beer.
