today i watched tv.

and as it is becoming routine, i tuned into food network simply to watch Everyday Italian with Giada De Laurentiis, as I'm sure many heterosexual males chime into her program from time to time as well.  I don't really care what she makes, because it probably will turn me off.  I don't really eat anything that hasn't originated in the northeastern united states...which pretty much limits me to the fribble.  anyways, back to my woman.  I was talking with victor about it as we went 30 minutes without blinking and mouth slightly open, "what if i was right there with her, and everything that she added that i hated, i told her about it.  what do you think she'd do?"  i mean, they are pretty uppity and happy when they're blowing through the recipe to make it in 30 minutes, they don't make mistakes and they aren't held up by anything.  what if i was there in the kitchen with her during the show, taking into mind my abhorrence for things non-NE USA?

giada:  "and now we're gonna add some fresh basil to kinda, sweeten things up a little bit"

josh:  "whoa... whoa... WHOA...wait a minute.  basil is disgusting.  i heard they feed basil to lab rats in north korea.  if you add basil i'm not gonna eat it.  i have a gag reflex to basil because when i think of basil, i think of north korean lab rats, and that is disgusting"

giada:  "O.K.  no basil."

josh:  "well....  i'm just sayin'"

from what i can gather, most people aren't turned off by her cooking, because she always talks about how much her friends "loooooove" this dish and "looooooove" that dish.  i wonder if she'd get angry.  i wonder if she'd listen to my plea for a "dish" sans basil.  does anyone listen to me?  hello?

I'd think it'd be pretty funny if i told her that all the stuff she was making was disgusting.  and it's not me being a dick, it's the truth.  i get dry heaves whenever she starts dicing onions and tomatoes, which is usually about 30 seconds into the show.  so i don't think we'd be compatible in the long run, unless i somehow convinced her to quit her high-paying television job and had her become a waitress at friendly's, which, believe me folks, has happened before.
