    Actually if a fish is smelling or tasting fishy it is because the fish has gone bad. Every fish has it's own flavor and if your one to eat enough fish and known the taste it has then you can tell when the fish has started to go off even after being cooked.
    I meant more in the sense of that it's a fish, so technically, whatever it smells or tastes like is fishy - might be bad fishy, or good fishy, but as it is a fish, it can only smell or taste like a fish.

      SC: It's raining.
      Me: Yes it is. Some summer, eh?
      SC: I would like to eat in the beer garden.
      Me: Right.
      SC: But it's raining.
      Me: I know. I'd love to be outside in a beer garden too right now.
      SC: You're not understanding me. I want to eat outside, but it's raining. What are you going to do about it?
      Me: What?
      SC: What are you going to do?
      Me: I don't think there's anything I can do.
      SC: *sighs and walks away, giving me a look as if I was the idiot in the conversation*
      Me: I'm sorry, Sir. We haven't perfected our force field technology yet. There's still quirks in the system and the results are rather undesirable.
      SC: What do you mean, undesirable?
      Me: Well, it did let you in here.....

      Or at least that's what my imagination tacked on for you.
      If I make no sense, I apologize. I'm constantly interrupted by an actual toddler.

        Didn't you get an idiot last year who went out & tried to wipe the tables during a rainfall, and who looked very confused when the tables continued to get wet? Must have been a relative of this idiot.

        CRML, if I ever get to visit England again I'm going to visit your pub and take notes. When one of your crazy customers asks me why, I'll say I'm taking notes for a book about bad customer behavior.

          I guess I'm gonna watch you get wet while you're outside eating in the rain.
          Waiter: "Well, we actually have a retractable roof."

          Customer: "But then I'll be inside again!"

          Waiter:
          Fiancee: We're going to need to do laundry. I'm out of clean pants.
          Me: Sounds like a job for Gravekeeper!
          Fiancee: What?!
          Me: Nevermind.

              I always thought I myself was a fussy eater, simply because I'm very picky about foods I like and don't like. Very little grey area.

              However, and I know it's silly to keep digging up old beaten horses, but my last boyfriend is, in my opinion, the epitome of a truly fussy eater. I would bet a paycheck there are toddlers who are easier to get to eat than this manbaby.

              The whole time we dated, I honestly do not think there was one time he actually enjoyed food that we had out to eat, unless of course, he picked the place to eat, which he always played a passive aggressive game of making me choose where to eat, so then he could find something to dislike about the food....but if I forced him to chose, he'd sulk and be a baby about having to choose.

              Anywho, I made a thread on Fratch about it. This guy was epic in the sense that he was a fucking baby about perfectly good food. Everywhere we went. Seriously. Fries too soggy. This burger's gross. Why is it gross, I'd ask.....Whadunno it's just gross! Throwing away half a freaking footlong sub because it was "nasty", and he absolutely refused to save it for someone else or let me give it to someone else. He'd refuse to listen to any suggestions I had at places he'd never eaten before and go rogue and pick what he wanted, then absolutely hate it and sulk about it.

              So glad I ditched that loser.

              After that experience, on top of the couple of times I worked at restaurants as a teen, I too wonder why people who are that freaking fussy go out to eat. Oh, I do know! It's fun to play mind games with normal people!

                Did they think there was a huge button somewhere you could push to make the rain stop?
                At least we know who to blame for the crappy summer. Someone in CRML's pub has been leaning on the rain button...

                  It's not a button, it's a dial.

                    Huh...wha...HUH?? This makes me weep - it is a prime example for why it should be socially acceptable to flatly tell sucktomers to fuck off if they can't live in reality and make any sense whatsoever. Guess you should keep a tarp and a couple of stakes behind the bar until then for those with, ahem, stratospheric expectations.

                      SC: There wasn't any cheese on our burger.
                      Me: Oh. I'm sorry, did you order cheese?
                      SC: Yes we did. And we didn't get it. We are not happy.
                      Well, if you return your burgers to me in about half an hour to an hour, I'll throw some cheese on it and you can eat it again. How's that grab you?

                        Well obviously she wanted you to create a magical rain shield with your mind powers, wipe down a table of her choice with the clothes on your back, and carry her to said table so she wouldn't get her feet wet. Y'know, because she can't be expected to bring an unbrella or eat inside when it rains. That's just too difficult!

                          Yes. Whoever heard of staying indoors when it's raining?

                          Oh wait - almost everyone.

                                Blas, I worked with someone like that. Every day at lunch she'd toss out half her food because "it just doesn't taste right." She'd take two bites out of an apple and chuck the rest because "there's something wrong with it." Every. Day.
