Tell us briefly about three things you like, BUT make one of them a lie.
Alt task is to spot the lie (other people's, not your own obviously)
I'll start
1. Custard - It's ace. Yellow andluxuriously cream. Not lumpy and associated with stodgy puddings at all.
2. Daft puns. They're ace. How do I know this? Becuase a pirate told me they arrrgh.
3. Crescendo endings. They're ace. In concert at the end of the song repeated short strumming on the guitar. Drummer riding the cymbals. Then, on a nod, blam it's finished.

'Sausages of The World'. This is not a joke.
EDIT just to clarify, this is a book idea, not a film. Although a film about sausages might be quite good. I'd have Jackie Chan playing the main character.

I think you'll like something you can really get your lips around, big meaty one, something spicy and forrin, like a bratwurst.

were Caribbean ones from a specialist shop opposite Angel tube (no longer there, sadly). They had little flecks of scotch bonnets in them and tasted stupendous.
I also like Moroccan merguez sausages - the weirdest ones I have eaten were Chinese wind-dried ones. Worst: andouillette: they actually smell and taste of turds (or what I imaging turds to taste like).

One of them is fussy eater. You know the type, they will go down a menu and say "I cant eat that, its got {whatever} in it". They will then choose the dish they have always eaten and still leave half of it on their plate.

I too find it insufferable. I also suspect that many (not all, of course) people's so-called 'food allergies' are nothing of the sort either.

In my teens I went on a school trip to Italy where we stayed with local host families. I was staggered by the rudeness of people who refused food because it wasn't the tasteless stuff they usually had at home, the hosts were really distressed. I remember the food to this day, wonderful stewed goat with polenta and all manner of delicious stuff.

I remember being introduced to other families as 'the boy who eats everything'.

You're right, life is a rich tampastry of things you like and dislike, and it's good to look on most things favorably, that it's not all rubbish, but some of it is, and you need to accept that to move on as an adult and a human being.
