Let magic and science coexist. Let the wizard and the scientist go out for burritos together.
They can go out for burritos but I hate the idea that they’re both working with the same forces on opposite sides or whatever.
Dr. Johnson is working with cyclotrons and microscopes. My mans Alrudius the Wise is kicking it with goblins and making time go backwards with a pinwheel

AGSZC Taking Care of Their Feral Chocobo (often against his will)
Just some OOC crack excerpts from Cloud being feral and his boyfriends suffering.
from many a conversation with @strayheartless
-----------------------------------------------------------
Unjust Punishments
Cloud: *has dorm toilet duty for "fighting with" bullies* Eh, this isn't the worst thing someone in charge has done for something that's not my fault.
*Everyone's gaze sharpening dramatically*
Sephiroth: What WAS the worst thing?
Cloud, casually: Oh probably that time I saved the mayor's daughter and was almost thrown in jail with my broken ribs...or maybe the time Johnson...never mind, I got him back so it's fine!
*One-Winged Angel starts playing from four directions at once*
Cloud: The mayor thing was only that bad because I was 8 and freaking out too much, no big deal because Ma stopped them from actually throwing me in jail.
*Estuans interius...*
Cloud: And Johnson's nuts are crushed now, so yeah, all good.
*Ira vehementi...*
A little while later...
Cloud: Hey Zack?
Zack: Yeah, buddy?
Cloud: You know I love cuddling you...
Zack: YES, ME TOO! *squeezes tighter*
Cloud: ...but I get the feeling I'm stuck, and I'd like to know for how long.
*Zoom out to see Zack and Cloud have been tightly wrapped in a burrito together, squirreled away in Genesis' giant bed-nest, and their whole burrito bundle is swaddled so thoroughly that escape seems untenable. Outside, sounds of growling, pacing, and theme music can be heard*
Zack: IDK, last time they got me after I almost got trampled by a behemoth, they had me in here for a day or two. I say just enjoy it. I definitely am! *Pecks on cheek* You're the cutest!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Medication
Cloud doesn't take pills. Get that thing away from him. He will tough it out. Pills are for the weak! ZACK, GET OFF!
Zack's clamping Cloud's jaws shut while Angeal strokes his throat like a stubborn dog's to get him to swallow, "there, there, just swallow, that's it, be a good rabid chocobo, good"
Two minutes later, with lots of "bleaugh blech blaugh blep blech": *pill clatters to the floor*
Dissolving it in milk doesn't work because he can sMeLl It.
Genesis: "That's it, next time it's going to be liquid!"
Next time...
Genesis: *covered in disgusting cough syrup and germs* "NEXT TIME IT'S GOING TO BE A SHOT."
Next time...
The shot goes awry and gets injected wrong and now Cloud looks like the most sad and pathetic creature to ever walk the earth because (a) they BETRAYED HIM and (b) the shot got injected into something that HURTS and it was a NEEDLE and they BETRAYED HIM. Little tears glisten on his feverish cheeks and the tiniest of whimpers comes out and he holds his injured arm extra gingerly, and now everyone feels awful. 🥺
Genesis: "...fine, next time it'll be pills."
------------------------------------------------------------------
Weaponized Cuteness
Cloud: *doesn't want to do something* *stands next to Angeal and rubs his head*
Angeal: Awww my precious chocobaby, does your head hurt?
Cloud: *looks away, pouting*
Angeal: Sweetheart, we have to take care of ourselves. Here, sit down in the shade and have some juice.
Zack: *offended puppy noises* GEAL MY HEAD HURTS TOOOOO
Angeal: It does not, keep squatting
Cloud: *smirking behind his juice box*
-
Zack: Kunsel, you gotta help us, he's playing them! You see that, right?!
Kunsel: Yep.
Zack: Great, then we need you to tell the-
Kunsel: Nope.
Zack: What do you mean "nope"?! YOU ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT HE'S DOING?!!!!
Kunsel: Yep, and it is hilarious 🍿🍿🍿
-
It backfires when Cloud is actually unwell and doesn't want help.
Cloud: *coughs up blood very quietly* Bye guys, I'm off to kill a zo- er, off on a patrol!
Angeal: *appears from the ether* No, you are not.
Cloud: But 🥺 I gotta, for work!
Angeal: I smell blood.
Later...
Zack: Heh.
Cloud: Shut the fuck up.
Zack: Nah, you look like a marshmallow and I will take as many blackmail pics as I please, my angry little muffin!
Cloud: *growling and coughing up blood from his straightjacket cocoon*
-
Genesis being manipulated into giving Cloud's lactose intolerant ass more cheese:
---------------------------------------------------------------
They burrito him for the flu one time and come home to find that he CHEWED THROUGH the cocoon and is out racing Roche with a raging fever.
---------------------------------------------------------------
It's cold, and Angeal is frantically wrapping Cloud up in many layers because he's "small" (compared to the giraffes the rest of them are) and unenhanced...and now Cloud is passing out from heatstroke before because his Nibelheim genes are strong.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Cloud: *sways*
Angeal, from two floors away: ...I smell naughty bird. GENESIS!
Genesis: Angeal?
Angeal: Did you eat today?
Genesis: Yes.
Angeal: 🤨
Genesis: SIGH I had a breakfast sandwich and a chicken dish for lunch from the cafeteria.
Angeal: Good. My bird senses were tingling, so I... *Looks at Genesis* 😱
Genesis: 😱 CLOUD
They both make it downstairs just in time to catch him. He hadn't eaten in a day and a half.

I can't believe people will still randomly hate on The Last Jedi. The complaints have been noted and filed. It's time to move on. Yet, it trends on Twitter constantly. And I almost never see anyone complain about Rise of Skywalker. At least not in the way they do for TLJ.
RoS was this crazed, overstuffed burrito of fan service. Even the opening crawl was cringe.
And people are still all, "Haha, Leia was like Mary Poppins!"
(Which I thought made perfect sense and was a pretty clever use of the force. Use the force on an immovable object, get pulled toward it.)
If nothing else, at least TLJ tried to go in an interesting direction. The force was for everyone, not just the Skywalkers. Maybe it was time to move beyond the Jedi and start something new. Rey was a nobody and that was okay. That direction had so many possibilities.
And then JJ just pooped on it in the first ten seconds of RoS.
In my mind, JJ created all of his dumb "mystery boxes" and had absolutely no plan for what was actually in them. Everything people dislike about TLJ was JJ's fault. And JJ made the worst movie of the trilogy.
JJ Abrams is the villain. Not Rian Johnson.
And Rise of Skywalker was the inferior film, not Last Jedi.

Hello humans and statisticians!! First part of illustrious client! The comments were written while i was recovering by one of my worst headaches so... yep. trying to give myself as many happy chemicals as possible.
LET'S BEGIN! With a VERY PERSISTENT Watson that still in 1925 as he's stroking Holmes' hair and just generally cuddling him asks if he can publish this story.
Tumblr media
AND HE SAID YES, GUYS! Watson asked for TEN YEARS. When he asked Holmes if he would marry him it only took ten seconds for Holmes to answer by kissing Watson silly. THIS. Is a couple goal.
Anyway, let's see what happened -stirs hot chocolate milk-
Tumblr media
Uhm, don't you say, Watson, you both? And you have your favorite nook? AAh. 'Long, thin, nervous arm' check. Flirting by Watson check. Burritoed Holmes check.
Now what is in that envelope?
Tumblr media
A CLIENT! and an important one! Both our husbands know him, apparently, he's a household name.
Tumblr media
Of course, my dearest, it's OUR case. Now DO kiss me, Watson. I want this matter out of my head until 4:30 -Holmes who had been staring at his husband just as much as Watson.
Tumblr media
liar.
You had to write this to make up with the scenes UP. I do believe you are in practice again, but there's no WAY IN HELL that you're not living with your husband after he pratically asked you to bugger him at the turkish baths.
Well, guy arrives at Baker Street in good time. A nice impression already.
Tumblr media
He was prepared to find Watson, he thinks he'll be important for the case. He ticks all of the boxes Holmes requires to behave in his best way! Good!
W: See Holmes CAN be polite... mfg H: -SMOOCH- If people are polite to my Watson.
SO an austrian murder! Good, good! (Is Moran alive? bah!) What's he up to?
Tumblr media
I LIKE this guy. he has good priorities! Holmes agrees as well!
Tumblr media
W-what? No client's name? NO, I WON'T PLAY THIS GAME!
Tumblr media
'Client': -puppy eyes- may i... please tell you the facts? H: k. I promise nothing.
PROCEEDS TO TRY AND ATTRACT HOLMES TO THE CASE. (That tactic would've worked better on Watson, but this is good.) AND WHAT THE HELL. Sexism. bah! Bonking them, at least apparently this girl is (usually) a nice one-
And now, in good substance...
Tumblr media
Holmes... I see what you're trying to do. But you're wrong this time. It's not the general but a friend. Please don't investigate on IT (They'll do it in their free time in sussex. or on vacation -wink-)
WELL, HOLMES LIKES THIS CASE! ACCEPTED!
Tumblr media
now, infoinfoinfo!
Tumblr media
Holmes you don't need to sound so admired. Really, my man. Well, byebye, need to think!
Tumblr media
-proceeds to dissociate for half an hour-
Earth to Holmes? Ah Watson! Ideas?
tbh Watson's idea isn't an evil one. But Holmes is more logic and he's probably right! Well, do you have a solution, Holmes?
Tumblr media
Of course, my friend Johnson! Ah, the criminal one? YES, dear readers, Holmes HAS friends in the underworld. What, they're USEFUL! And probably know a lot of good places to have a relaxing evening!
fast-forward to the evening! Holmes is getting them to dinner at their favorite place!
Tumblr media
So they dine and Holmes updates Watson! And then lets a thing slip...
Tumblr media
And Watson gets ANXIOUS AND PROTECTIVE!
H: I'm sorry, love, i didn't tell you not to worry you, you know me W: You were in DANGER Holmes, are you alright? H: Of course i am, i'll tell you what happened
Tumblr media
What was basically two men trying to scare each other away. Gruner gets very physical with the threats. He's used to have his enemies attacked... Holmes is NOT SCARED AT ALL! You kidding?
Tumblr media
He recognizes the danger of course. And now wants cuddles because he was really a good detective. And wants to stay near Watson!

Late as ever but thank you @lemonlyman-dotcom @rmd-writes and @freneticfloetry for tagging me in this! It's been a blast reading everyone's answers!!
Tag ten people you want to get to know better...
Relationship Status: Single and really quite neutral about it :)
Song stuck in my head: Banana Pancakes- Jack Johnson
Last song I listened to: Mess-Noah Kahan
Three favourite foods: Chicken Burritos, anything that can be reasonably served for breakfast (that definitely covers three)
Last thing I Googled: I checked to make sure I was spelling opportunity correctly in a system without spell check...
Dream trip: Does it count as a trip if I just want to go to a little house in the countryside of Italy and never come back.
Anything I want right now: for my cat to let me sleep passed 4am tomorrow morning...
If you could be any animal, what would you be and why? an Elephant so I never have to forget and my skin is a little thicker when shit gets tough.
Would you rather have the power to read minds or fly? I'm afraid of heights and what people think of me, so I'm going to say fly but just imagine it as more of a float, a silly little hover, like 3 inches off the ground max.
(I'm 100% sure all of these folks of done this already or have been tagged to the moon and back but I'm going to toss my tags out to @rosedavid @watmalik @mixtapestar @detective-giggles @reyesstrand @strandnreyes @alrightbuckaroo and just in general to all the folx that have been so so so kind to me in my tags on the art i've posted! Let's be friends please!!
happy you exist :)

Nickel Bin #4:
Cat Stevens' Foreigner Suite
Tumblr media
Though I'm surely as guilty of practicing it as the next music blogger, I don't know how to spell pretentious without looking it up.
But The Beatles surely entered every new Spelling Bee hoping pretentious would be the first word they were responsible for. They knew the concept all too well. After all, Yoko and John decided his schlong, and nothing else, was a worthy subject for a 40 minute film.
(No, I'm not gonna show you a clip of the movie here; get your mind out of the gutter; and anyway, the film was only ever shown once and is not available anywhere; so no slow-motion image of Lennon's Johnson for you; Yoko said "the critics wouldn't touch it"; neither will this blog...)
Paul meanwhile routinely praised his own music by posing as a nonexistent journalist named Clint Harrigan. And George was inspired to write Try Some, Buy Some to document "his sudden perception of God amid the temptations of the material world" while living in this house:
Tumblr media
And Ringo... well you know The Dollar Bin is shy about criticizing Ringo, even if his website just announced a "LANDMARK PHOTOGRAPHY RETROSPECTIVE HARDCOVER “BEATS & THREADS” CHRONICLING OVER 70 YEARS OF HIS LEGENDARY DRUM KITS AND ERA DEFINING FASHIONS."
There is perhaps just one form of late 60s to mid 70s era rock pretension of which the lads from Liverpool never partook: the side-long song. Arthur Lee's Love introduced the idea of one long song filling an entire side of vinyl on their second record, and everyone, including Lee, instantly recognized that doing so was pretentious nonsense.
(By the way, Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands does not count. Why? A) it's only 11 minutes long and takes up a side on its own only because it is at the end of a double album, b) it's too awesome to criticize in any way, and c) cuz I said so.)
Relax: I love Pink Floyd's Echoes (not to mention The Pentangle's Jack Orion) as much as any reasonable white guy, but you've got to admit there is little one can imagine more pretentious than declaring that your music requires listeners to concentrate for 18-23 minutes without pause because you're a big deal artist sent by the gods who cannot be bothered to meet the needs of radio formatting or real people with real responsibilities.
And that brings us to our first ever discussion of one of the Dollar Bin's greatest oddballs, Cat Stevens. It wasn't pretentious enough for Cat to fill the entire A Side of his career cauterizing 73 album Foreigner with one song; he also insisted on calling it a "suite".
The musical term "suite" has its origins in the 1500's and was central to Baroque era music; the idea of a suite was to assemble serious music together for the purpose of serious dancing. Bach wrote a bunch of them; time signatures were to be rigidly followed; everything was either homophonic (not homophobic, ye hasty reader, homophonic: all acceptable music is queer friendly) or polyphonic or, who am I kidding? I have no idea what a song suite actually is; all I can say that it's a serious piece of serious music; in other words it has nothing to do with Jethro Tull.
What I'm trying to say here is that taking three to seven pop songs, smashing them together (with either total or no elegance) and calling it a "suite" is comparable to me wrapping up last Wednesday's spaghetti in a tortilla, adding canned salsa, and declaring my pathetic lunch a Super Deluxe Burrito. Stephen Stills was of course the master of such pretension; see Suite: Judy Blue Eyes. I'll bet he's tucking into a spaghetti burrito as we speak.
Cat Stevens' Foreigner Suite is, admittedly, another totally pretentious addition to this club. And yet, it features everything we love about the Cat Man: sweet harmonies, dense sonic changes, passionate lyrics and his patented I'm-a-grandpa-who-zipped-up-too-fast-and-got-his-hairy-hacky-sack-caught-in-it vocal stylings. Plus he recorded the song while on tax exile in Jamaica and was appropriately enamored with reggae, so the whole thing is a fitting follow up to Paul Simon's Mother and Child Reunion.
My wife bought this record early in our relationship at a Salvation Army without my pretentious approval. I knew Cat Stevens. My long ago friend Thom Moore of Moore Brothers fame had shown us Harold & Maude and I'd been listening to Tea for The Tillerman since middle school.
(My buddy Eric and I once spent all of a sleepover listening to the title track on repeat; when we finally went to bed we turned it down as low as it could go while still remaining audible; therefore we woke up every other minute and a half when everyone belted out HAPPY DAY!; we had no access to, or interest in, drugs, so that was our idea of trippin').
But I'd decided early on that everything after Mona Bone Jakon (now that's a record that deserves a big deal Dollar Bin treatment; it's the overlooked third member of holy, end-of-the-60's, white people music trinity alongside Five Leaves Left and Astral Weeks) was a compromise, and that everything after Teaser and the Firecat was a worthy soundtrack for that film about Lennon's one-eyed monster.
So I turned my pretentious nose up at my lady friend's thrift store find, resumed listening to Daydream Nation, and thereby missed out on Foreigner Suite for the rest of the 90's.
But then we had a kid in 02 it was time to a) rewrite my pretentious first/last novel, b) drink more/cheaper beer, and c) listen to the records in my collection I had previously ignored, all in an effort to prove to myself that I was not simply a middle aged, balding dadman forever more. And that brought me to Foreigner Suite.
Let's listen.
youtube
Where to start? I count the soulful main theme (There are no words...) which opens the piece briefly and then comes back for an extended run at the end, then there's another two or three unique melody sections as well as the funk in the middle, and then the whole thing soars away with sweet piano doodling and a chorus that I can't begin to get my head around: heaven, Cat sings, must have programmed you. Is he singing to a 60's era, Warehouse-sized IBM machine? Or to Neil's new robot? Is he inventing the internet years before Al Gore did?
I love this song. I'd play it loud on weekends in our first real home whenever my wife was at work. My infant daughter spent the 8 minutes unpacking all her toys one by one, tasting each of them. And I'd sit on the floor beside her, tasting them too. Then she'd don every costume jewelry necklace in the house and crawl about, dragging bling wherever she went. And I'd sing along with Cat and crawl along after her, marvelling. After all, Heaven had programmed her.
And when she graduates from college this May I'll likely have Cat Stevens in my head:
When you're talking to me And the whirling wind turns to song Why it sets my soul free
Here's to Cat. He wound up donating all the money he saved on his taxes while in Jamaica to UNESCO.
More importantly, here's to Martin Luther King. Today's his day. His words and voice are currently knocking the wind out of my ninth grade students in all the right ways.
And, most importantly, here's to all the unpretentious people who spent today in service to others.
Cheers.

Character ask: Leo Corbett
Tumblr media
favorite thing about them: He is a hero who had to earn his way, change and evolve from what he used to be, despite every sacrifice that came upon him. Also, he's basically a five year old when exposed to other children, so there's THAT.
least favorite thing about them: If I'm being honest...his Ranger suit. Like everyone who watched this season as a kid, and beyond, it's always the suits that are the worst part of the season.
favorite line: Keep your hands off of her!" (gotta love me a man who drinks the respect women juice)
brOTP: Mike must have his good qualities, but my little brain keeps telling me that he gets on infinitely well with Damon.
OTP: ...I...hm. While I appreciate that Kendrix is the shining light that kept him going, for some reason I kind of like him more with Kai. The Red/Blue dynamic is strong in these two~
nOTP: *holds up a blowtorch* Incest shippers DNI.
random headcanon: When he fully put down roots on Mirinoi, the Astro Rangers made it a point to visit when they could to help out and TJ Johnson introduced Leo to Bulk so he could get a proper job and learn how to cook properly for himself so he didn't have to keep relying on Kai for his meals. Oddly enough, when the former Angel Grove resident wasn't occupied with the Professor, he made a very good life coach and didn't mind having Leo around.
unpopular opinion: ...um, Bisexual King?
song i associate with them: Steak Burrito Bell Grande

Interview with Julian Koster about Chocolate USA in Flagpole, July 14, 1993 [source]
transcript:
CHEWING THE CHOCOLATE CUD
Chocolate USA is more than a band; it's a concept, and, according to Julian Koster, vocalist/writer/musician, it's an attempt to bridge the gap between fan and band. “Chocolate is more a ‘thing’ than a band. It's an idea,” he said while spooning out the sour cream from his chicken burrito while we sat at Compadres. “When I was a kid the bands I listened to opened me up; they were like my best friends.” He went on to describe the intensity of emotion and intimacy one feels when connecting with the music. So many bands build walls around them and what Chocolate would like to do is “make something without a backdrop. The idea is... the world has to be limitless.”
We originally drove off towards town in Chocolate’s newly acquired red van with white paint sloshed in swirls along the sides. The van is the band’s current prized possession once belonging to Bar/None, Chocolate’s record label. Performers such as They Might Be Giants, Freedy Johnston, and others have graced its exteriors and left their marks in the guise of bumper stickers and stage passes plastered on the metal sides and dashboard. A Soul Asylum all access pass looms from under the radio while bumper stickers proudly proclaiming “My other car is a penis" and “Bush Wishing Well — please give a shit about greedy Republicans” cover the sides of the well-worn vehicle. There's a Freedy Johnston backstage pass, and a few others with handwritten band names, now smudged through time.
There's also the cow... and our reason for driving downtown in the first place — to find paint that will cover the Wooden Cow Guest House insignia in the middle of Julian's four foot high wooden cow. “I'm into a cow phase at the moment,” he said while we walked towards the art shop carrying the cow. “It’s the imagery of cows on the side of the road — no matter where you tour, there are cows on the side of the road. I used to pass this cow pasture all the time when I was in high school so it brings back certain memories to me,” he said. I asked him if he had written any ‘cow’ songs. He began singing one, to no surprise.
Their debut album, All Jets Are Gonna Fall Today, was released by Bar/None records just a couple of months ago, yet the material for the album was written and recorded several years ago while Julian was at the high point of his adolescent angst. “Bar/None took it as is. Most people block adolescence out of their heads, I released mine nationally!” It turned out that Bar/None was Julian's favorite record label at the time. “I was a huge fan of They Might Be Giants, Yo La Tengo, Ordinaires — they were my three favorite bands. [Bar/None] responded right away to the LP. They are the neatest, funniest people I've ever met working with indie rock. [With All Jets] we preserved the time and what was there. We're definitely a Bar/None band — we fit in that mindset.”
The band currently has 25 songs to weed through for their second release planned for January, some of which are partially recorded. In the meantime the band is planning to release a vinyl only EP in the fall. But for the past two years Chocolate has been running their Chocolaty Good Smash Hit of the Month Club. What you get when you join is a personalized mini album with covers made by the band “Nothing in the club will ever be anywhere else.” Julian is also working on radio play ideas, characters involved with the band — both real and imagined — and has worked with real life characters such as Eugene Chadbourne and Daniel Johnson on projects. The current Chocolate lineup is Keith Block on drums, Allen Edwards on guitar, Paul Wells on bass and mandolin, Liza Wakeman on violin, and Julian on guitars, mandolin, concertina, and turntables. “I'm inspired by George Clinton and the Parliament and Funkadelics. They were very much a family. Our ultimate goal is to bring the band’s garage and the kid's bedroom closer together.” Julian asked for the time while smashing a bite of burrito into his mouth. Evidently he had two other phone interviews to take care of and he was already late for one of them. We rushed out of the restaurant, not forgetting the cow, and descended back into the heat and the red van “Did I tell you what I'm going to do with the cow?” he asked. I wasn't sure I wanted to know the answer. “We're going to put it on stage with us — do something with it — I'm not sure what....” We got back into the van and drove off, securing the cow in the back seat.
I had to ask: How did this cow fetish come about? “During the time we were recording All the Jets, the cow stuff was coming into effect,” he said. “I fell in love for the first time at age 16.” Evidently seeing cows brings back the memory of the cow pasture Julian used to walk by during his high school days, when the love bug first struck... “It was a case of unrequited love. It blew my mind — about love and what we were going through at the time. It was during adolescence and about adolescence. There was no perspective. I was in the middle of the ocean and I was swimming without a life jacket. That was adolescence — that was love.” Hillary Meister
Chocolate U.S.A. are playing at the 40 Watt for their Athens album release party on Wednesday, July 14. They play rarely in these parts and are about to embark on a national tour. Catch them now before they travel down the winding pastured road...

Star Elite: Biggest food pet peeves
Here are some of Star Elite's biggest pet peeves. Also if you don't know Star Elite is my Blue Lock AU with my original characters. Here's the link so you can read up on it if you're interested.
•───────•°•❀•°•───────•
Fiorello Dal Lago: He fits the Italian stereotype a little bit, but he understands that people have their own preferences when it comes to food... but if you break pasta in half in front of him, he will never let you into the kitchen again.
De'Andre Wilde: If he cooks something and you ask for some, only to eat the entire thing by tomorrow, he's GOING to beat your ass. Better yet, if he orders something and you don't, but proceed to ask and try and eat off his plate he is going to backhand the shit out of you.
Amari Wilde: Nothing really ticks him off, mostly because he's too timid to confront you about it. However, if you don't wash your hands before cooking, he will politely tell you to leave the kitchen (Translation: Get the fuck out the kitchen you heathen) so he can prepare the food instead.
Xaivier Johnson: If you pour milk before your cereal he's side eyeing you. Put milk first and then heat it up in the microwave, and he is going to think you escaped a mental asylum.
Enkai Nakajima: Loudly chewing with your mouth open. Something as simple as this makes him want to actually knock the shit out of someone. Now does anyone really like this? No. But for whatever reason this pisses him off on a global scale.
Anselmo Espinoza: Ok, he's a really nice dude, but people who try and chastise what other people can eat really work his nerves. If he wants to eat something a certain way he's gonna eat it. If it isn't incredibly gross and unhealthy for your body he's gonna try it at least once. And if he doesn't like it, then oh well.
Isaac Espinoza: He hates ranch. It nauseates him to the highest degree. He hates to even look at it. Ranch anything makes him sick including ranch doritos. Also people who can't wrap burritos correctly-.
Vespa Richelieu: Very similar to Anselmo, he isn't too pleased when people try to judge and tell him what to eat. However his annoyance is mainly targeted towards vegans who try and say their way of eating is the superior one because they don't eat on dead animals. Please believe that if a vegan karen were to come up to him and try to reprimand him for eating meat, he will purposely eat meat in front of them while laughing his ass off. Why? Just because he can.
Deong Daon: When people, usually those who are inexperienced in the kitchen, don't properly use knives. Like sir, that is a steak knife. It's meant to cut steak. Also, whenever people just walk into the kitchen while you're cooking. Not helping at all, especially when they come near him while he's holding a knife. It makes him paranoid.
Elio Rossi: People who over-season their food. Salt and pepper get the job done sometimes you don't have to add all this extra shit to make something taste good. Chill out.
Alexander Bennett: He doesn't care if the food is the best in the world. If there's grease flooding the plate, dirtying his hands and clothes, he's not gonna fucking eat it. He doesn't want to take a bite of something and have grease immediately explode in his mouth.
Lixue Bai: If he's eating something chewy and he feels something oddly crunchy in the food, he's lighting his mouth on fire.
Axel Hart: Big silverware make him want to go into cardiac arrest. Yes he will make a dramatic scene about it because it is necessary. Big silverware was made for torture purposes.
Seia Morikawa: Allergies exist. Why do some people treat it as a weak thing?? It's not like people can control it?? What you want them to just grow out of a food allergy? Dumbass. Oh- also people who just throw food away carelessly.
Carnell Reid: If he's eating with you, he doesn't wanna hear or see you throw your head back and moan loudly in front of god and everyone about how good the food it. He gets it. The food is good. You can just say that instead of making everyone uncomfortable with your food porn rant.
Bruce Matthews: He has no clue how people can just drink coffee bland with no sweeters or spices. No sugar? Cinnamon? Ginger? Like seriously?? If you drink plain black coffee he considers you one of the most boring people to live on planet earth.
Amador Shimizu: People who shit on other people's food, especially when it's apart of their culture, piss this man off. You're allowed to dislike it but why hate on it just because of the culture it's from??
Omair Rosario: He loves to cook for people. it's something he learned to love from his mother. He loves seeing the happiness on people's faces as they join together to eat. He sees food as not only a necessity, but a way to bring people together. It's very hard to anger let alone annoy him. Except some things. People being forced to eat when they don't want to, and people who deliberately waste food. These things irk him heavily.
Emeterio Narvaez: White people who put raisins in everything. Why? Damnit he wanted mashed potatoes not a fucking milky, watery abomination with shit pallets inside (aka raisins). Let him catch a single raisin in his food when it's not supposed to be there. He's never trusting your cooking again. EVER.
•───────•°•❀•°•───────•
That's all for this post. If you want to, comment or repost with your own opinions. And like if you want to. Bye :)
