Enquiring minds need to know...

... well, condign and Frances want to know.

[Poll #135776]

This is what happens when you let people drink port and discuss jelly-wrestling; sooner or later it moves on to chocolate-sauce wrestling, then semolina-wrestling. Frances hates semolina. Really hates it. condign, being a confounded foreigner, doesn't know what it is.

I was asked to set this poll up; I now officially disclaim all responsibility.

As sexy as the smell of six-year-old gym shoes.

By way of comparison, how sexy do you find the smell of six-year-old gym shoes? I would hate to answer that negatively only to find that you are actually secretly turned on by their subtle fragrance.

I'm with Frances on this one. The confounded foreigner from Saratoga with whom I am AIM'ing is with condign, but when I compared it to rice pudding and to tapioca, she too was of the "ick" party.

Now the wrestling stipulation makes matters different. Wrestling in a substance found mildly displeasant would provide different environmental concerns to a substance found neutral or pleasant. You can fill in the blanks yourself, should you choose to do so.

But on behalf of narenek (who's de-netted until Sunday evening), the answer may be hot as hell. I'm not certain on that one, because I'm not sure how it differs from rice pudding (which he does clearly think is hot a hell).

I declaim all responsibility for this...

as, frankly:

a) Frances couldn't drive to get the semolina; and

b) you refused to adjudicate or participate in the nude jelly-shot wrestling.

So I'm pretty sure the whole thing doesn't count.

My memories of semolina at school are unfailingly negative - it's the one thing that would give me the heaves trying to swallow it.
It's basically wheat porridge NOT a kind of rice pudding.

Jelly-wrestling

Speaking of Jelly,

You missed out on Saturday of getting rid of it at huggyrei's party. condign ended up having to make more, none of which got eaten at the party - yet again... He ended up being forced to eat half of it after Oxford Thai last night leaving another bowl in Nat's freezer. It's spreading, soon Oxford will inundated with alcoholic jellies...

Hugs,
