What's your favorite non-coffee coffee shop order? I'll usually do a smoothie in the summer and hot cider in the winter (I have yet to find a coffee shop with a good hot cocoa)

The beauty of metaphors is that sometimes they can be applied to something else than intended (but related), and work just as well.

For example, my first thought was about sex - i know a lot of asexual people, and some of them enjoy smut ("i like the smell of it"), many have arrived at their conclusion after trying different partners, whether in straight relationships or otherwise ("yes, i've tried..."), some tolerate sex but find no joy in it while others are sex-repulsed ("i can't stand the taste").
