Following on about drugs......
What are you addicted to at the moment.

Apart from Jeff, I go cold turkey if I don't get my fix of Tesco special tomato and chillie sauce each week.

I was having a conversation with a colleague just now about women and chocolate, funnily enough
(As she's tried to give it up for lent, but snapped yesterday in what I'm told was quite a spectacular fashion)

But yes, she wonders if there's some physiological difference between men and women which leads to women craving chocolate but not men. I countered this by arguing that I get irritable if I don't get a least one weekly fix of The Pub, but I do wonder whether she has a point.

There must be guys who crave chocolate.
My mum is like that. She even steals the little bit of chocolate I keep in the fridge when she visits.

I'm going to have to keep an eye for the next time I start craving something.
I don't tend to find myself yearning after particular foodstuffs - I love food, but I find it hard to enough to decide what to have for dinner these days.

Actually, just a thought...does it count as a craving if I find myself sitting in my office in the middle of the afternoon thinking I'd really like to have a guitar to hand?
(LongJohnBaldry, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:03, Reply)

I'm hopelessly addicted to chocolate.
If I have some chocolate I have to eat it all. I can't save it, someone has to take it off me. I'm the same with biscuits too.

You interest me. I feel like I should conduct tests on you and find out how you tick...

Haha!
Anal tests?

Is that a craving?
or is that you're just what's known in medical circles as a "greedy guts" ?

Plenty of women manage to crave both chocolate and men, I think.

( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:00, Reply)

I don't think women crave men.

( girlinthehole, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:01, Reply)

You do

(Bazongaloid, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:02, Reply)

No I don't.
Otherwise I would have one by now.
( girlinthehole, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:03, Reply)

unless you're going to be anal about the definition of crave
surely plenty do?

She craves anal for sure

Who have you been speaking to?

( girlinthehole, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:08, Reply)

There are some women who hate to not be in a relationship.
But some men are like this also.
( girlinthehole, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:06, Reply)

I wasn't suggesting any different. It wasn't meant to mean just women.
I was just going for a bit of wordplay on some ambiguity in TSC's post, specifically "some physiological difference between men and women which leads to women craving chocolate but not men"

I won't bother next time ;)
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:09, Reply)

I don't crave chocolate often.
The only time I crave something sweet is when I take a sleeping pill.
( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:02, Reply)

What's Plants Vs Zombies?

(PsychoChomp, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 14:05, Reply)

Its an iPhone game and its bloody brillzo!
Zombies are trying to march up your garden path and eat your brains so you have to plant lots of flowers and things that just so happen to shoot and kill zombies. Its stupid but strangely addictive.
