You can’t hide from the truth

Because temperature affects the way your taste buds percieve flavour!!

For example:

Coors Light is marketed as the tastiest light beer… so long as it’s nearly frozen, when you cant taste shit.

Bourbon (hard liqour in general) tastes radically different when chilled vs warm.

Ever had frozen whipped cream? Literally grab a can (reddiwhip), & pop a bunch into a cup, cover it, throw it in a freezer for a few hours. It’s suddenly ice cream. Sweet, frozen, totally different taste. Same product.

Water tastes different due to the minerals in it, what’s added… literally the purity of it. Adjusting how your tongue recieves these various flavours with temperature is super neat!!

Ever had LaCroix? Hint of lime becomes hint of hint of lime when chilled.

“Amy Poehler was new to SNL and we were all crowded into the seventeenth-floor writers’ room, waiting for the Wednesday night read-through to start. […] Amy was in the middle of some such nonsense with Seth Meyers across the table, and she did something vulgar as a joke. I can’t remember what it was exactly, except it was dirty and oud and “unladylike”,  Jimmy Fallon […] turned to her and in a faux-squeamish voice said, “Stop that! It’s not cute! I don’t like it.” Amy dropped what she was doing, went black in the eyes for a second, and wheeled around on him. “I don’t fucking care if you like it.” Jimmy was visibly startled. Amy went right back to enjoying her ridiculous bit. With that exchange, a cosmic shift took place. Amy made it clear that she wasn’t there to be cute. She wasn’t there to play wives and girlfriends in the boys’ scenes. She was there to do what she wanted to do and she did not fucking care if you like it.”

This one never gets old.

Society tries to police how Women behave and present ourselves by mocking us, belittling us, shaming us, or asking us what people will think of us. 

“What will your boyfriend/future husband/potential friends/employer/mother/grandmother/father/grandfather think?”

A very powerful way to reject this policing of us is to say we don’t care what people think, especially since that is often the way we are policed.
