UGH). They think people who do not enjoy migraines from their smoke stink or cologne (or the combo pack of both, because they're dumb enough to think the one covers the other) are hypochondriacs. They also have NO clue how disgusting they smell. *Shudder*DLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08768285199864217885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033598682489350651.post-20353668910399889712015-02-21T13:07:17.221-05:002015-02-21T13:07:17.221-05:00Hubby dear doesn't understand why I detest, no...Hubby dear doesn't understand why I detest, no, make that DETEST the smell of microwaved popcorn. He'll get up in the middle of the night, and b/c he can't sleep, he'll eat a *SNACK.<br /><br />I can SO relate to the breakroom stink. And the day someone brings FISH. I used to get so irritated by what people ate. I wanted to protest those smells just like some people protest if someone wears too much cologne/perfume. <br /><br /><br />*translation - pops a bag of poison.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033598682489350651.post-61946945341393770852015-02-20T18:39:21.953-05:002015-02-20T18:39:21.953-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.DLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08768285199864217885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3033598682489350651.post-74251189291347796542015-02-20T18:39:19.321-05:002015-02-20T18:39:19.321-05:00Ah, but REAL popcorn is a mighty fine thing. I mad...Ah, but REAL popcorn is a mighty fine thing. I made it myself in the same pan my dad used when we were kids, and ate it out of the same bowl - with REAL BUTTER and a bit of salt (or a bit of sugar and cinnamon - now that is good) - for years, until I got a flat-top range a few months ago and the old pan was no longer good on the cooktop. Real popcorn is fresh. It smells beautiful. It all pops. It's simply wonderful to share.<br /><br />That crap that comes in a microwaveable bag is not popcorn. It stinks to high heaven. And it is not allowed in my home.<br /><br />Dad did used to make caramel corn too. Mmmmm.

And everyone at works likes to pop popcorn in the break room microwaves. There's barely a moment I'm in there where the air isn't contaminated with that loathsome odor. Oh, the trials I put up with. First World problems... :)Colin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292997431935215499noreply@blogger.com
