PLURK PET PEEVES

Re: PLURK PET PEEVES

This foods you won't eat meme. 99% of the answers make them sound like 3 year olds who won't eat their McDonald's because a carrot touched it. Like, I could understand being that picky if you have food allergies or disorders/issues preventing you from eating well like digestive problems or even if you couldn't afford better food, and to be fair I've seen a few people with this, but some of these lists are making me wonder what it is they can and will eat. Do they just survive on mayo and cheese all day or what?

These same people complain about being so fat and out of shape and sick constantly too. Have you fuckers ever tried nutrition or are we going to continue to consider pizza and ketchup as vegetables?

Depression, anxiety and developmental disorders like autism can cause problems with certain foods, textures, etc. Also, medication can screw with digestion and taste experience.

Personally, I've got a mental illness and some sort of developmental disorder which makes me super sensitive to textures, so there is a very limited amount of food I can eat. It's not a matter of pickyness, it's a matter of not wanting to throw up after every bite.

tbqh that aside, it's weird for you to expect a reason for why people don't like things as subjective as food.

lbr, half these people wouldn't know how to cook real food even if they bought it.

ngl, I opted not to do this meme because it seems kind of silly. I actually prefer food with actual nutritional value, but eating prefs don't seem all that interesting to discuss.

i was wondering the same thing, especially with so many people on my plurk going "eww vegetables are icky"

what are you, five? if i said that to my parents and refused to eat my vegetables when i was growing up, i didn't get dessert and i didn't get the option for anything else for dinner either. funny how none of my siblings nor i are picky eaters as adults.

Am I excused if I don't eat chitlins and gizzards?

It's really interesting too. Nearly all the people on my plurklist that hate vegetables (one listed about 20 different ones) are also big on fat pride. Several of those constantly try to lose weigth and fail.

I wonder why. And I am suddenly glad that in my (european) country, processed food and fat pride isn't a thing. Because hotdamn, if you avoid veggies and just eat fries and shit, of course you'll end up being fat. Duh.

But what if ketchup actually is one of the foods I can't stand eating? Haven't been able to stand that shit since I was little.

But then I'm one of the anomalies in my Plurk that hates a lot of condiments (and think veggies are awesome).

To be fair, studies have been done that show that certain people have a biologically based aversion to bitter foods like broccoli and brussels sprouts, while others are born without the taste receptor that makes these foods taste so strong. Also, bad experiences with certain foods, such as a bad food poisoning experience or seeing or smelling something that had spoiled, can lead to a lifelong aversion to that food.

And honestly, I find this meme useful in case I meet one of my friends in person and take them to lunch or send them a holiday package with treats, so that I won't get them something they can't or won't eat. It's not my place to judge someone on the basis of what they will or won't eat, no matter what the reason.

If you hate this meme so much, then why are you reading the plurks with it instead of just closing and then muting them or skipping the ones that are tagged with it? Yes I know pet peeve, but this is one that you can do something about.

I grew up in a family in which you didn't leave the table unless you ate everything on your plate, and if there was something new made, you had better believe some of it was put on there for you. After you've sat at the table for several hours while everyone else is allowed to watch tv or play games or go outside but you have to sit and stare at a plate of food that's slowly getting colder all because you don't want to eat it, you learn really fast to put your big kid panties on and not be picky. And if you didn't eat it by the time everyone else went to bed, your plate was covered and put in the fridge. Guess what you were having for lunch the next day!

The only "get out of jail free" card IMO is a medical issue/disorder. Saying you never tried it but know you don't like it, that you tried it once years ago and thus it's gross, or that "it makes me gag" is just an excuse.

..really? People are whining about healthy stuff, then turning around and whining about their weight?

WELP judging the shit outta them. WTF...

I can definitely understand the food allergies and stuff, since my mom is allergic to several common things, so she has to be careful. But...omg I am quite glad I was raised on a lot of different foods and I'm not picky.

Damn.

don't plurk things [nsfw] AND THEN JUST HAVE THE CONTENT RIGHT THERE

if you're tagging it nsfw there's a fucking reason for that and i'd really like to be able to look through my fucking timeline at work in my down time without fear of having to hide dicks from my boss

Re: PLURK PET PEEVES

i really wish people would keep plurks of the same topic to one plurk instead of plurking five times every time there's a new update/thought/comment

Re: PLURK PET PEEVES

[(Anonymous)]

There's someone who keeps posting:

[Spoiler] Spoiler in this part of the line.

THANKS A LOT, DICKBAG. Removed them. But why the fuck do people think this is a good idea?! Are they just that stupid?

Has plurk randomly deleted anyone else's account? I leave the room for ten minutes and come back to find that apparently I've been deleted. :/

the 20-something year olds who complain that they're SO OLD NOW or the 19 year olds turning 20 whining about OH NO NOW I'M AN ADULT.

Re: PLURK PET PEEVES

sick of people posting about the recent disasters (boston, texas) and saying stupid shit like:

MY SISTER DROVE BY THERE/MY DOG WALKED BY THERE/I USED TO LIVE THERE/I KNOW SOMEONE WHO USED TO LIVE THERE/SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOW LIVED IN THAT STATE

shut the fuck up. stop making tragedies where people died about you. stop acting like it's affecting you as badly.

>Plurks to ask opinions or help
>Someone offers what is asked
>OP says "well I already was planning x"

Bonus Round
>They throw a tantrum over people not coming up with "x" and act like it's a personal attack

No one gives a fuck about your shiny new TV show you're having all the feels about. We all know you're nothing more than a bandwagon jumper and I am sick of seeing five plurks about it in the same hour less than five minutes apart from one another.

Re: PLURK PET PEEVES

I hate people who get upset, annoyed or mad when people reply to their plurks. If you don't want replies lock the fucking plurk so people can't reply.

Re: PLURK PET PEEVES

someone on my plurk list just made 6 plurks in half an hour.

why. :x
