Avoiding like the plague...

Thanks for clueing me in since I have no experience in that area. (Yawn)

No problem. You're welcome. You might want to go get checked out to see why you're so sleepy all of the time. Of course, when you roll over and fall asleep, a few seconds after the fun, that disencentivizes your lady to ever wear the stuff you scorn, so maybe that works to your advantage.

Driving in areas that I'm not familiar with and parallel parking. I'd rather walk a mile in sleet and snow than parallel park.

Going to the doctor or dentist. I usually can tell when I have a serious problem, everything else takes care of itself when given time.[/QUOTE

I am with you on the parallel parking! I am lousy at it and it causes me great frustration, so I avoid it like the plague.

You obviously have no idea how to properly prepare/cook tofu. The teeming masses routinely include tofu in their "things I avoid" lists, thus showing their ignorance. I could cook up one of my tofu dishes, and you would not only enjoy it, but you would, almost definitely, be unaware that you just ate tofu in the dish. Truth is, I'm a gourmet vegan chef, but that doesn't mean that anyone couldn't cook up one of my dishes and do it correctly.

The only tofu I've consciously enjoyed was in hot and sour soup.
I L-O-V-E hot and sour soup
...but avoid the mushrooms like the plague (not sure why...I'm weird)

Tofu by itself doesn't have much of a taste alone. I sure don't like it alone, even with soy sauce. But anyone who doesn't like it have apparently never had it in beef stir fry. But then I live in Hawaii. And it can also be made into a dessert.

Rrrrrrrrruffffff! Put on that get-up, add a black garter belt, black bra with "cut-outs," and a whip, strictly as a prop, and come on over! I'll cook you up any vegan dish your hot little heart desires! Maybe you'll reconsider your aversion to "dressing up," after that! :cool:

Tofu is not meant to be eaten alone, right from its container, at least as I've experienced it. However, if you cube it, soak it in any marinade of your choice, overnight, and then throw it into a hot, greased skillet, rapidly flipping it a few times until the sides get a bit of "skin" on them to prevent sticking, you will find it an ideal addition to any veggies you stir fry, and then serve on a buttered and dilled bed of medium-cut rice noodles. Adding a sauce of veggie broth and soy sauce that has had a tablespoon of corn starch added as a thickening agent, will also add another dimension to your dish. Serve with a garnish of fresh cilantro. Break out the chopsticks. let's eat!

Right. Any guy who writes "Lingerie doesn't impress me either. My reaction is something like, that's nice. Let me see what's under it," shows, by the same, that his level of class is right down there with his caveman ancestors. Do you make your own clubs, too?

If I did all that and forgot the tofu, I'd still enjoy it.

My only actual problem with tofu is...it looks so much like cream cheese...of which I could eat alone, right from its container.
Actually, I've had to pull bits foil outa my mouth from time to time.

I really liked cream cheese as a kid. Lox, bagel, and cream cheese, with a thin slice of onion and tomato. Oh, man! These days, I use the vegan cream cheese that's out there, and it's good, but since "mock lox" and I have never crossed paths, and gluten-free bagels are not that great, i rarely need the vegan cream cheese.

Phytoestrogen which is in soy. May cause hormonal problem changes in post menopausal women, I suspect. At age 72 I ate only soy based foods 3 meals a day for 3 months (maybe 4) to get away from eating meat. Around 5 months later, I felt a medium sized grape lump in my left breast. I had a successful lumpectomy. After this, I went over what diet changes I had made for the last months before. Heavily soy based foods was the only change. So I avoided any foods containing soy protein/oil from then on. I've had no return of cancer. Breast cancer is not a problem any of my relatives have had. Sooo, who knows...?

I also avoid people who get some (weird) satisfaction in putting others down.

Its good that you discovered this.
Congratulations on being cancer free. That’s great.
