Just one more turn?

Chocolate and cake, I just can't turn it down. If there's some in the office I have to shovel it down me. I have to be really careful what I have in the house

[–] Alice@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh same. I've been trying to cut back on sweets but with Easter having the passed, someone's always got bringing a bowl of clearance chocolates to work or D&D night. Heaven help me if someone brings in cupcakes.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 0 points 1 month ago

Cupcakes aren't my favourite cos I find so much icing overkill. Still eat them though...

[–] Opinionhaver@feddit.uk 6 points 1 month ago

It's extremely rare that I turn down a cup of coffee.

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cheeses - emmenthal, gorgonzola and brie in special.

[–] LallyLuckFarm@beehaw.org 5 points 1 month ago

New plants or seeds I haven't grown yet.

Any dog that wants to say hi to me

Receiving usd50million clean money* with no string attached.

* clean as in the mean of obtaining the money given me isn't via robbery or any illegal activity that is mean to make me an accomplice.

[–] GreyShuck@feddit.uk 4 points 1 month ago

Pizza, cheesecake, wife's puppy eyes,

[–] theblips@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Tobacco. Anytime, anywhere

[–] roserose56@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Listening music for hours or specific albums or sets again.

I was having trial fasting (ramadan) days when I was a kid and another kid offered me some almonds, I ate them in a heartbeat and forgot entirely about the fasting. It was really early in the day. So yeah, healthy and delicious food gets me even when I am deeply committed to something.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don't care what anyone's faith is and wish everyone well, but I can't lie, I think Ramadan sounds awful. Not drinking water is not normal.

[–] idriss@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I think there are better places to discuss what science says about fasting and how applicable all of that to Ramadan. Neither my comment nor OP question are about that so yeah. Peace.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I can say no, but it's difficult...overtime. They pay me a RIDICULOUS amount of money and usually not much is expected of me because I'm just filling in.

[–] Quilotoa@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Desserts. Preferably with chocolate.

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Chilling in bed (alone) reading a book/the internet.

That's nearly all my favourite things in one activity, I'm lucky I'm such a low maintenance person.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 1 points 1 month ago

That sounds like a lovely day! I have insomnia so can't risk it messing up my sleep hygiene

[–] Corno@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

French fries/chips or crusty baguettes/bread rolls!

[–] dryfter@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I have a history of addiction and lack of self-control in general when it comes to anything that can be addicting (which turns out to be a hell of a lot of things).

spoiler: It would be easier for me to answer what can I say no to?Healthy food and cooking

I hear it taste like metal but smells great. I assume the crystal like structure might cause some discomfort though. Doesn't seem wise to put anything up your nasal cavity, but powders seem like they would dissolve in bodily fluids, what stops rocks from just getting stuck and not dissolving for a while?

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I like my nose so I just use toilet paper to parachute it up my ass.

No idea how it smells or tastes.

I really want to respond in kind but for some reason I'm worried that I should act more mature in the casual conversation thread. No idea why. I hope all your parachutes perform their best out there.

Does this have something to do with the maggoty cum farts?

Well if you're currently in control, you're doing it very badly.

Who isn't these days?
