  • Actually thinking about the idiom, I wonder if people used to complain a lot about the types or quality of vegetables they grew. It might be purely metaphorical, but I can definitely imagine it, having lived in a place where the owners didn’t box in their zucchini and I had to eat it twice a day for two months. I have a bunch of bomb zucchini recipes, including a self created prize winning quiche recipe (it’s just good homemade crust with an egg and no water, blind baked, then filled with zucchini rounds about 4mm thick sautéed with thin sliced red onions, balsamic vinegar, and rosemary, a little bit of good Parmesan and only two eggs in a 2:1 ratio with heavy cream- I don’t have it more precisely at hand rn), but I couldn’t enjoy it for a decade afterward.











  • Doing it is kinda shitty, but I think most people would watch their date for a minute or two and it’s not a big deal imo (especially because we don’t know if they watched him for a full sevenish minutes). Telling you about it could be because they don’t have the white lie filter, because they thought it would break the ice, or because they like to put people on the back foot.

    So I guess yellow flag: proceed with caution (I was going to make a joke about yellow lights, but they were all really shitty on second thought in context)
