It could also be that it tastes good.
Have you tried it?

i don't have to try it because i know it doesn't taste good

I will let you have black licorice.
I got that from my uncle.
He loved it.

But come on, try Oreos and orange juice.
You might like it!

you can have all the black licorice thanks

gross
that's gross
that's the grossest thing i've ever heard

Trust me, I get plenty.

It tastes like chocolate and orange cream.
It's so good.

eeeyyuuck

you should try halwa
sometimes it's made with orange water
so it's kind of orange cream-ish

I bet I can find it in Queens.
Because I'm not afraid to try new things.

if you do tell me where you get it and i'll order some
i'm having a hard time finding anything good where we are and shipping from afghanistan is unsurprisingly prohibitively expensive

i like the rosewater and cardamom versions but like i said sometimes they use other flavors
i bet if you walk in and ask all the aunties working will be happy to let you sample the options

Most culturally diverse neighborhood in the world.
I promise I can find it.

And I'll try both of those as well.
They sound good.

so you've said
one day i'll put that to the test

they're so good dude
paired with a really strong really sweet mint tea??
transcendental

You can Google it, you know.

Sweet mint tea.
Hot or cold?

nah i believe you
i'm still gonna find out myself

hot of course

I'm glad my horrible secrets won't keep you from visit.
The neighborhood is great.

Okay, hot sweet mint tea.
Got my shopping list.

please i've seen people eat worse and still had to work with them
it's changed how i view you forever of course
but it's not going to send me running for the hills

honestly the tiny cups add a lot to the experience
maybe you should just find an arabic cafe first before you go buying supplies

This is why I don't usually tell people.
They can never see me the same ever again.

Oh, there's a few of those around.
I might have to take the subway for it but they exist.

it's a heavy secret to keep, for sure

you sound like taking the subway's some kind of hardship

[ Jensen sounds like someone who wasn't skirting the edge of a panic attack the last time he took the subway. ]

I honestly don't care.
It's just not reliable sometimes.

[ Peter swings when he can because it's just so much faster. ]

see if you could drive this would all be a moot point

But I don't need to drive.

you might!! someday!!!

But not right now.
And I do know how to drive!
I just don't need to.

Okay, once or twice I've had to because my Aunt's asked me to drive her home from work.
But that's like it.
And that's her car.

please know when you say stuff like this to me i'm picturing you grinding the gears of your aunt's car so badly it makes my teeth hurt

or no does she drive an automatic??
do you keep one foot on the gas and one on the brake???

peter please

If I did that the car wouldn't go anywhere.
You do know I'm a tech genius, right?

I know how a car works.
I know how to drive a stick shift.
It's what my uncle taught me in.

peter you don't understand the kinds of people i have worked with and how fucking badly they drive
tech genius schmek shmenius
a car is not tech it is machinery and so many people drive so badly it's scary

i just had to make sure

i was worried

Cars these days are more electronics than they are mechanics.
The basics remain unchanged but electronics are integrated into all those mechanical systems.

I can handle a car.
I choose not to because it's pointless.

Unless you're my aunt who deserves not to take public transportation and enjoy the comfort of her own car.
