Mine is similar. I probably do love bacon as much as the general population, but the trend of people putting bacon on everything and pretending it works is annoying. Bacon has taken on a Chuck Norris-esque reputation.
I dig bacon. But people are putting it with chocolate and shit like that. One trend that I think is so gross, is bacon flavored food like potato chips. It smells like bacon treats for dogs. Fucking nasty.

You like spicy food though, so you're ok in my book.

Nutella is disgusting to me. As is all seafood.

Bacon is overused but I wouldn't say it's necessarily overrated. Good bacon used creatively isn't always a bad thing, but bad or mediocre bacon used creatively usually is.


Also most meats don't jive well for me. (I can eat chicken if all of the gross non-muscle bits are cut out of it, and turkey breast as long as it's from the outer edge, the rest of it just grosses me out.)

my list of overrated stuff:

Kids
Avocados
Brand new cars
Christmas
New Year's Eve
Chocolate
Frosting/Icing on cakes
Cupcakes
Chocolate Chip Cookies
The vast majority of tacos
Chipotle
Cellphones
Texting
Diamonds
Gold
Designer clothing/bags/underwear/anything where a name on a product jacks up the price of an otherwise cheaply made product

my dad loves seafood and he's always said the only reason to eat lobster is to have an excuse to eat a lot of melted butter.

These Extended Universes we've got. I'm unconvinced it'll ever be more than a cameo-creating gimmick with crossover potential. I think there is too much need for characters to shoehorn into films to be good.

I don't like any shellfish, but I love fish. And not bland fucking grouper or tilapia. Give me something that actually tastes like fish, like mullet.

I like most fish, a few exceptions noted. Starting to come around to shellfish too.

I got a buddy now who recently got a boat and is all in to fishing and shit. He's telling me about all these different types that are great, and as good as steak and shit, so I'll give em a go perhaps. But I don't give a fuck about your typical ones, like Slaughter said of tilapia, grouper, salmon etc. Meh.

"Legend(s)" like in the wrestling...movie business. There ain't that many in every business. So many of "them" really never have been nor will be at that level. Its so overused and very loosely. Makes me sick at times.
