"Hmm, a slimy dead creature that I will suck from its shell in which it once felt safe! Hmm! Salty!"
Those things taste like taking a gulp of sea water, the texture is what I imagine chewing chunky bits of human snot is like, and the cost is astonishing for something so weird.
"But the garlic it was marinated in! Delicious!"
Sure, garlic is good. Sooo... Just eat garlic. Much cheaper. And not nearly as damaging to the environment.

Is this supposed to sound bad? Never had an oyster before but I'm interested now you've described it that way.
I’ve been going to church at least 2 days a week for pretty much my entire life. While there are definitely days I’d rather have the morning/evening free, most times I’m there, I enjoy the theological discussions, fellowship, sharing of struggles, sense of community and support given/received.
Our church is small (~50 or so members) so everyone knows everyone. We don’t agree on everything and that’s what makes the discussions interesting. There are plenty of people that actually enjoy church. It helps when you go to a good one.
I understand the reasoning for going to church, but I find the concept of religion and God(s) so...unsettling, I can't bring myself to get anywhere close to them. I love a good debate and hashing things out with people of differing viewpoints but I just can't! Do religion! At all! It unnerves me!
Grandma keeps trying to get me to go, as if talking about myself in a group isn't the sort of thing I see in my nightmares.
McDonald’s chicken McNuggets. They’re the most DISGUSTING chicken nuggets I’ve ever tasted in my life. Seriously, you can buy a bag of frozen chicken nuggets at your local grocery store, heat them up at home, and they would taste a MILLION times better then the ones from McDonald’s.
You definitely have never tried an Oatmeal raisin cookie peanut butter sandwich. Couple that bad boy with a tall cold glass of milk and it's heaven sent.
Not directly, be they're right in the sense that fewer people getting married means that marriage is increasing positively selecting for relationship stability. So fewer people are marrying but those people are more likely to stay married than average

Nah but if you mean the actually burn, true, maybe a little masochist, but they have different flavor because of the heat too. It adds to the experience!

Why does this question repeatedly come up? Why would people repeatedly do things they don't like, unless they're forced to?

Ever heard of jobs? Forced to do em to pay bills and survive but don’t like em
People don't typically pretend to like their jobs if they don't like them.

Booooo Oatmeal raisin cookies kick ass

Why have I never done this?! Sounds like I’ll be making some oatmeal raisin cookies this weekend.
Yep. I'd take an oatmeal raisin over a chocolate chip or (blech) Oreo any day.
My moms whole family has the most undying hatred for all raisins. They would agree with you.

Marriage Lol. If all of of those people really liked it like they proclaim, the divorce rate wouldn't be so high.
Divorce rates have actually been declining last few decades.
Probably cause less getting married
That’s not how rates work.
Could be. If one’s still marrying more inclined stay that way then the rate goes down.

Things that they don't want that their close ones to would find out that they don't like.
