We can talk about life, we can talk about death,
we can talk about film, we can talk about chess,
we can talk about the faceless evil shadow creatures
underneath our clothes,
we can talk about the government conspiracies

I have a very large, extremely light and delicate cheesecake drizzled
with a very fresh raspberry syrup. It's just sitting here on a platter,
glistening in the sunlight.

Does that sound...delicious...to anybody in particular? Hmm?

FORTUNE'S GUIDE TO DEALING WITH REAL-LIFE SCIENCE FICTION: #14 What to
do... if reality disappears? Hope this one doesn't happen to you.
There isn't much that you can do about it. It will probably be quite
unpleasant. if you meet an older version of yourself who has invented
a time traveling machine, and has come from the future to meet you?
Play this one by the book. Ask about the stock market and cash in.
Don't forget to invent a time traveling machine and visit your younger
self before you die, or you will create a paradox. If you expect this
to be tricky, make sure to ask for the principles behind time travel,
and possibly schematics. Never, NEVER, ask when you'll die, or if
you'll marry your current SO. -- Herdthinners

If someone else is going to eat that cheesecake, he'd better come
soon. I'm not good at holding myself back for long.

Why do you all like cheesecake outstandingly? There are many other
foods that are nutritionally nearly the same.

Nutrition? Bah, don't speak to me about nutrition. Cheesecake goes
beyond simply a nutritious cake! In fact, I've written a haiku:

Cheesecake in the spring--
Scrumptious and airy goodness.
Oh! What a fine treat.

Because certain tastes and textures set off the pleasure centers of the
brain. We're wired that way.

I would hate to have directly-pleasurable taste. It does not have
proper input-decision separation, so it impairs rational decisions or
overrides them, so I would not have complete control over how I eat.
And it can be out-of-date. I prefer tasting nutrition, and eat to
sustain myself, thereby helping every other thing I want to do. But I
know that most people here would function poorly with taste like mine,
because their minds are reliant on input-decision integration, so they
would not eat enough and would be depressed.

Or, on the other side, eat too much and be depressed. Or eat just the
right amount and be depressed..... Depression isn't caused my
malnutrition. Most often, depression /causes/ malnutrition.....

However, to the main thrust of your point, I don't eat something because
it's nutritious. I eat something because it tastes good. If it happens
to be nutritious, then someone in the R&D department of the nutrition
center has earned their pay. But I won't shy away from food that's
nutritious, if it tastes good..... On the other side of that point, I
also don't like to try new things all that often, since I tend to find a
lot of things unappetizing.....

Good point. I drink a lot of soda (Mountain Dew) because it "tastes
good." As a consequence (also due to bad brushing habits) I've ruined
my teeth.

Have I stopped drinking it? No. There's a mental addiction to the
substance (rather than a physical one, as some other "drugs" cause), and
have a very hard time not buying more, or drinking what I have.

Also, "taste" for us is actually /smell./ There are only 4 real taste
flavors: sweet (mm!), sour (ooh), bitter (ick!), salty (I can't really
describe this one, we have it because we require a certain amount of
salt intake, so we've evolved to associate "salty" with "healthy," in
much the same way that bitter things are (ussualy) bad for us).

Recent research has found possible tastes of Fattiness, Calcium-ness,
and "Umami" (Japanese) which refers to a food's age, in English, it is
also described as "meatiness", "relish", or "savoriness." I can't
attest to any of these three myself (the calcuim one has only been found
in mice so far).

It always seemed to me that savory was the same as salty. Or a
combination of salty and fatty. Anyway, I generally eat healthy
because I like being able to run, jump, and climb. It's surprising how
after a while of not eating really sweet things, like soda, it tastes
kinda nasty and syrupy. Then you don't want to drink it anyway, so
it's not like giving up soda is a constant sacrifice. Point is, you
can change your mind to make some things taste bad or good.
So, is that cheesecake still there :D

In this particular case, I think we can make up for that: with more
cheesecake.

Peppermint, huh? I haven't had that before. Anyone else want some? The
cheesecake at the beginning that the thread was named after is
probably old by now anyway.

There is worse than that around. I am getting the impression that some
people on Usenet don't realise that a reply is to a particular message
and not just to a thread. GG does not go out of its way to make that
clear after all, and it is not true in things like phpBB. (Oddly, the
much-ridiculed boards that TDWTF uses have reply-to-message, but seem
unable to illustrate the threading.)

Citizen, listen: Kurt Vonnegut did not intend _The Euphio Question_
as a resolution to the Fermi Paradox. (Even he wasn't that depressing.)

Yes, I know. I'm not used to this type of boards. Usually I live on
forums, where things work differently. Bear with me.

That was not aimed at you. I am not totally certain that it was even
Here that I saw that confusion.
