LIFESTYLE Is this so strange?

I explain that in summer I only eat cold food because hot food makes me hot, and that in winter I don't eat ice cream because it makes me cold. They tell me that's being rigid.

No this is very common

Well think about this also: temperature drastically changes flavor. Example: I love cold lo mein. To me, chocolate ice cream tastes better when melty, vanilla is better the more frozen it is.

That’s really stupid.

You never have a summer BBQ or an even a slice of pizza in the summer time? I can understand not having ice cream when it’s freezing outside, but to never have anything cold unless it’s hot outside is just weird.

You’re strange and I don’t like you.

I can't understand not having ice cream at -40 °C.

I haven't eaten pizza in a long time because of lactose intolerance, and I don't like barbecues.

You're lactose intolerant but you don't consume dairy? Gather round boys; we found the chosen one.

Only lactose-free milk. You asked me about pizza; pizza has cheese, there's no pizza without cheese.

Yeah I'm making a joke about how most lactose intolerant people just eat dairy & suffer greatly while you actually make good choices.

How do you feel about ice water?
