Absolutely love liquorice - well at least the British version of it which is like 50% aniseed. Not so much a fan of the Nordic version which tastes saltier than salt.

Other often-contentious dislikes of mine:

• Butter (ish - I have a really low tolerance before it tastes like it's gone rancid)
• Yogurt
• Fish (fish that doesn't really taste of anything, e.g. cod, is ok)
• Vinegar

I know taste is subjective, but as far as I'm concerned, those are three gigantic nopes. 😝

I wonder how many people dislike the same groups of things?

Boost shows that it was edited :|

In any case, it's not outside the realm of possibility that I made a mistake in my original reply! :)

Burning effigies of migrants might be, though.

You're not wrong.

I wish I could see the edit timestamps on Lemmy, because I'm sure that comment was different.

The stupid thing is, I'd originally written the comment with quotes to point it out, then chopped it back because I realised that I was massively overexplaining it. Those quotes would have been handy now!

I'll strike my comment out so it's not misleading, but I'll leave it up so this still makes sense.

Same here - my kids had these, but I'm of the generation raised on Roger Red Hat.

Thanks for that - even though it was utterly depressing!

I live in the North of England, near Manchester, so I know our house prices are more reasonable than some other places, but I wasn't expecting that I'd need to earn the value of our house annually to get a mortgage in San Jose. That's crazy!

1. The baby doesn't understand English (although they can recognise the rhythm and sounds of language).

2. The mother understands English

3. The baby experiences the same emotions as the mother.

In conclusion, read something that will make the mother relaxed and happy. If that happens to be The Cat In The Hat, then great. I read Don Quixote when my wife was pregnant with our first, our second got Moomin and Hairy Maclary (by virtue of being there when I read to the first).

The most important thing is to keep reading to them, every day, after they're born too. Buy tons of children's books (for your own sanity), do the voices and have fun with them.

It says "Access to this page has been denied" for me, so I'm just going to assume it's a list of every US city.

Nice try Gary Glitter.

(Context)

I see two possibilities:

• You get paid for posting this kind of nonsense - in which case then I get it, everyone has to make a living.

• Your brain is actually broken

A quick run through your recent posts have shown that you're actually the author of some of the worst posts I've come across on here, so kudos. But I'm afraid it's now a "no" from me, and I'll be blocking you from now on.
