A very strange post. I live in a mid size English town (not a city) and can find all the cuisines you mention within a one mile radius of our town centre. Plus numerous others such as Greek, Turkish, French, Egyptian, Portuguese, Bangladeshi. Even American, god help me.

I can celebrate all the holidays you mention if I wanted to. Why wouldn’t I be able to?

You really need to get out more.

Nothing can be too moist.

UK here. I get 30 days paid leave a year, and will have 2 or 3 weeks away on vacation throughout the year and use the rest of the days for just chilling.

I’d happily let you have them all :)

My local pub sells pepperami behind the bar. I swirl it in the beer so it gets a good amount of beery glaze then… Er… Suck it off. Then do it some more, and swallow it. And yes I know exactly how that sounds.

I’d be concerned that my own chatbot might get jealous

Pepperami and beer

I have seen a number of girls do that tbf. You are not alone (unless each time it was actually you)
