Some people won't eat tongue because it came out of the mouth of an animal but have no problem eating eggs.

    Just don’t want to eat head, something that represents its personality for me. That is how I feel about it

    Some people are so ignorant about where their food comes from that they prefer processed food because it doesn’t remind them of having come from an animal.

      My mother didn’t know how to cook it, so she just boiled it without skinning it. It was so bad I never want to eat it again.

      I watched my new dog take a shit the other day, and then turned around and started nibbling at it. He’s big on getting in your face and giving kisses and I can’t stop thinking about the poop.

        Now think of the times you’ve seen someone let their dog lick them in the mouth.

        We have this concept of “quarantine-time”, it is the period in which we still remember that she did something disgusting. As soon as we forget, then it is all good.

      Seconded. Anyone who’s afraid of it, try a lengua taco sometime. You will not regret it (and no it doesn’t look like a tongue once prepared).

    Some people won’t eat tongue because their culture doesn’t eat tongue and when asked they come up with reasons.

    “We just don’t, it’s a cultural thing” is so often the correct explanation, but our brains usually spin up reasons that are tidy, “just so” or satisfying even if completely off base.

    I don’t eat organ meat period.
    Not my cup of tea due to consistency.

    And if I do eat it, I want to stay in blissfull ignorance and enjoy the taste.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
