What things are you very particular about?
« on: July 12, 2017, 05:09:07 PM »
It just occurred to me as I was eating dinner that I'm particular about my lettuce. The lasagna landed on a piece of lettuce and now I won't eat that particular piece because it was UNDER the lasagna which made it warm and warm lettuce is gross.  :zombiefuck:

What are you particular about? I have loads more but I'll pace myself :laugh:

Work.
How so?
Everything, really. The space, the things in the space, the actual work. While the work itself is very structured and rule oriented, it still allows a lot of space for an individual to develop their own particular way of doing things. If wanting a specific example, am particular about worksheets and can't stand when people make them dysfunctional so the information has to be re-worked before it can be useful. Here's me crapping my pants at Zeg about it. http://www.intensitysquared.com/index.php/topic,23159.0.html Am also very particular about my work being correct and exact, and have developed various ways of insuring that.

  I wrap things very tightly at work.  As close as possible to hermetically sealed.  :M :autism:
  I cannot stand loose plastic wrap over perishables.  I burp the air out, I pull the corners tight.

Sort of similar to yours, Phoenix. It's about beetroot. If the juice of beetroot spreads to touch any of my other food, then it (the other food) can't be eaten.

So what I usually do is get a serving of beetroot, eat it, rinse my plate, then get servings of the rest of the food.

I know it sounds strange.

Hmm...I don't think I've ever tried beetroot before. Interesting.

I'm also particular about what mugs I have my hot chocolate in. Not just any mug will do. I have 3 favourites.

Rarely drink coffee outside of work, but it's all day everyday at work. For years drank it from a clear mug and grew very attached to it, not only the cup but the experience of drinking coffee from a clear container. The first one was plastic, so when it became worn out replaced it with a similar glass one. A couple years ago, a co-worker gave me a large white mug with my initial on it for our Christmas gift exchange. It was devastating, because felt obligated to use it. :laugh: It's managed to grow on me over time, though still would rather a clear one.

It's often served at Aussie barbecues.

Gah! That's the worst! I was fortunate that the last mug I was given as a gift I ended up loving but the friend who gave it to me likes the same kinds of mugs that I do so she picked well. Plus I like the quote on the front: "The universe is working for you but that shit takes time." :laugh:

I don't like having different drinks in the same type of glasses. If I have a milk glass it's very wrong to put fruit juice in it the next day.

Ice cream.

I will give myself brain freeze on a hot day trying to eat it before it starts to melt. Because melted ice cream tastes like milk...I hate milk. :laugh:

^Ha! That's funny. I love ice cream that has just started to melt a little bit. That's my favourite.

  I prefer it melted.  I will microwave it after opening it, then keep the rest in the fridge.  :2thumbsup:
