Fucking Stupid Statement To Make.

I love broccoli.

who the fuck in their right mind loves fucking broccoli?

Broccoli is tolerable as a vegetable full of iron and stuff. But in no way ever is it lovable.

Kittens are lovable. Red wine is lovable. Chocolate is an enjoyable food stuff.

Broccoli is not fucking lovable. Therefore 'I love broccoli' is a fucking stupid thing to say.

fin.

And vegetables really do love you back. They do wonderful things for you when you eat them.

OP - THIS is a fucking stupid statement........
Broccoli is not fucking lovable. Therefore 'I love broccoli' is a fucking stupid thing to say.

SOME people do love broccolli. Some love kittens.

So, the person being fucking stupid is - you Grin

I enjoy eating broccoli if you want to get caught up in the semantics - you may enjoy vegetables to a lesser degree than others, I know people that can't abide cheese (weird fuckers but entitled to their dislikes) - but so what? Different people like different food to varying degrees for different reasons.

Allisgood1 you have a FRIEND made out of broccoli? Wow. Grin Though probably you shouldn't eat them. Unless they're really delicious.

I've thought about this - actually, broccoli does love me back. It gives me several vitamins and minerals and the like, and doesn't make me even fatter. I wish I could say the same for the bag of crisps I just ate. If only I'd steamed a head of broccoli instead.

Pisghetti - do you like pulp and peppy pig?

maddening · 23/11/2014 19:20

Peppa not peppy

I love broccoli and cabbage and red cabbage and all kinds of veg.
Broccoli is the only veg my oldest would ever eat voluntarily. Not a stupid statement at all.
I can however admit to not loving wine of any kind, or any alcohol really Blush

Niamhisnotarealname · 23/11/2014 19:27

I think broccoli is very loveable. In fact, it is my favorite vegetable I think, so versatile, so tasty. I LOVE Broccoli :)

theladylovescupcakes · 23/11/2014 19:27

Yeah, I love broccoli. Even more so since I discovered how nice it is when roasted. But I still can't spell it (thank you, auto correct!)

We all adore the stuff!

Piper Yes, broccoli and stilton soup is delicious. I was quite happy with my cauliflower cheese and ham until I read your post.

Stilton and broccoli soup next weekend for sure.

TillHammerZeit · 23/11/2014 19:57

I love broccoli,and hate red wine,actually all alcohol. The stems are the best part,better than the florets,but I wouldn't say no to either.

Honeydragon · 23/11/2014 20:01

I too have a dog that loves broccoli

(And hates kittens)

It is her right as house hound to have the broccoli stalk.

She's also fond of cucumber.

BlackeyedSusan · 23/11/2014 20:02

I am fond of raw broccoli too.

dd loves cooked broccoli.

OwlCapone · 23/11/2014 20:04
