Re: Stuff people like that I think sucks...
I thought I knew wine until I started dating my girlfriend and then she had to ever so gently point out that I had pretty bad taste in wine. I like to think I'm getting better, however.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑05 Sep 2018, 6:41pmAnd another wonderful lady break my heart.

Re: Stuff people like that I think sucks...
I don't really buy the idea of bad taste in wine. I mean, I suppose it exists as a concept, but if you genuinely enjoy what you're drinking, that's what matters (as long as you aren't watering things down, like some people). I'm not keen on white wine and I loathe merlot, but if others find it appealing, cool. But if your g/f is exposing you to other types of wine that appeal, that's great.WestwayKid wrote: ↑05 Sep 2018, 6:44pmI thought I knew wine until I started dating my girlfriend and then she had to ever so gently point out that I had pretty bad taste in wine.

Re: Stuff people like that I think sucks...
I'm boozing significantly less because I'm working on being less fat.
I've actually lost about 20 pounds in the past couple of months, so any complaining I'm doing is tempered by the fact I'm getting results.
