I played goal in hockey and I was thinking stick fakes on grass when you’re only moving at 15 mph shouldn’t work. But here we are.

under appreciated part of the whole play was the stick fake he gave to get past the last guy. i was a goalie in a former life. those sticks don’t lend to good stick fakes

I couldn’t even dodge one of those guys, they’re all jacked. Running circles around a whole team of them? How is that not better than a DE scoring on complete fluke?

You’re such a dick about this, which I respect. I’m trying to formulate an argument but I can’t, due to your extreme dickishness. I cede the battlefield to you, Good Sir.

I don’t know about other countries except Mexico, which definitely has plenty of kids who won’t broken bananas or wrinkly food orwhateverwhatever

Fat guy touchdown usually involves a guy on the D-line snagging a pass that the offense wasn’t prepared for. It’s nowhere near the same thing as a guy who looks like he could be my fat uncle running end to end to score.

I do this a lot to varying degree. I do not lack a mish-mash of flavors unless the truly compliment one another. Like I would pick a part a pizza with everything because to eat it as-is would just taste like nothing to me.

Or due to a childhood aversion; I read that if a child under ten eats something new and then coincidently gets sick with like a stomach flu or something that the food is forever linked in their brain as toxic. I think it has evolutionary benefits. Happened to me at age 7 with pound cake. I ate some, went to bed, woke…

I don’t eat salad dressing either. Or mayonnaise. Like, seriously, the smell alone is literally enough to make me gag.

“It’s not made of pizza” is a perfectly valid excuse to not eat what looks like poorly seasoned grilled shrimp, wilted spinach, and either cream of wheat or a horrifically botched risotto. I wouldn’t eat that shit either, kiddo. Also, toasted cinnamon raisin bread is NOT cinnamon toast what the hell is wrong with…

You. Are criticizing. Babies. Literal babies. Toddlers. You, a presumable adult, slapped your big fat fingers on the keyboard to let the internet know you have spotted a flaw in a toddler’s logic.

Oh, the salad dressing....
I have a pathological hatred of vinegar. I’ve tried to force myself to eat salad with dressing, but I was gaging before I closed my mouth. Salt and vinegar chips, pickles, dips? Nope nope nope. I just can’t do it- I can’t even stand the smell.
I’m a vegetarian who eats dry salads, or with a…

I think it’s okay (even justified) to get mad at picky adults whose pickiness interferes with others. The type of person who asks their friends to severely restrict the restaurants they can go to as a group, etc.

My kid is in middle school, and way into Insta, as he calls it, so I shared this with him. He said that the reasons were stupid, but that he would not eat any of those foods except for the shrimp, and then he would pick them off the top of the polenta.

I think so, to a certain extent. There was a teacher at my son’s preschool who was from Sri Lanka. She was very patient with my son’s pickiness, and tried to reassure me that it would pass. One day she told me that, at home, they would say- Why do you cry about this food? I should cry because I have to work for the…

I don’t enjoy being around picky eaters, but I’ve also learned that a lot of adults have undiagnosed sensory processing disorders. If it’s caught and treated when young, mild SPDs are generally not a big deal. But if they’re not (as they haven’t been for those of use over 20,) they can manifest in a lot of different…

As an adult with texture aversions in general, not just food, I volunteer my experiences. There are reasons adults are picky, I hate when people act all judgemental about it.

I was just going to say there are legit reasons a kid might have that contribute to making them seem picky. I have Aspergers and growing up with sensory problems was really hard since my mother didn’t understand me and just though I was over sensitive and picky about clothing textures and food. Sorry to be that…

It Does!

Yeah, pickiness due to legit medical reasons is different than claiming a crunchiness allergy or something.
