I love thunderstorms, very soothing.
My grandmother hates them though, reminds her of her rickety trailer, whenever there was a storm she'd sleep in my grandfathers truck*.

3/10 lacks moonshine

( Light In Chains maker of the ikea sofa, Mon 9 May 2011, 19:02, Reply)

My uncle drinks moonshine.
The first, and only, time I had it, he poured a bit into a pepsi bottle cap [was in the bottle, looks like water innit]. So I slurped it up and as soon as it hit my tongue my mouth went slack and I dribbled it all down my shirt.

And grits
Grits are as tasty as they sound.

I don't even eat grits.

Good
I know you're Dixie, but grits are for the real desperados of the South.

For UK viewers - this is a bit like the North/South saveloy divide.

I think it's for the dirt poor, my mom eats them sometimes but I think it's because she's used to the taste.
She was raised on them. Because her family was dirt poor.

They're a breakfast option on most Amtrak services
"Hash browns or grits?"

You should try everything at least twice in this life, but once was enough for me and grits, thank you.

I've just googled grits.
It doesn't sound very nice. I'd try it though.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 9 May 2011, 19:32, Reply)

apparently butter and salt are the garnishes of choice when it comes to grits
I'll be honest and say I've never had them, but I just can't
they look bleurgh

They're like dry, compressed weetabix dipped in sump oil.

( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Mon 9 May 2011, 19:35, Reply)

that description is a lot worse than I thought they would be
and so now, I shall NEVER try them
( Lisette von Falcon, Mon 9 May 2011, 19:36, Reply)

I'll go with the hash-browns.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 9 May 2011, 19:37, Reply)

I wish I'd not mentioned them
Partially because of the revoltingness of grits, but mainly because I can't have an Amtrak breakfast this year and have the option of saying no to grits.
