This has never happened to me. I eat at least 1 pineapple a week during the summer, and probably closer to 2 a week. Have friends that talk about it messing with them but I’ve never experienced it.

I buy a pineapple on most trips to the grocery store -- gotta cut it up within a day or 2 of bringing home. then I'll eat a lot of it in one sitting and I know I've had too much if my mouth starts to feel raw.
 
what's everyone up to today? doesn't really feel like memorial day was yesterday.
 
I am in in virtual conference-land again -- NYU Orphan Film Symposium. Great stuff!
 
Yo, have you guys heard that pineapple does what-have-you to your what-have-you? For Guys AND Girls. Load up.
 
Nice, I have yet to virtual conference - not sure what NCA is gonna do this year.
 
Virtual conferencing has been alright, but I have been looking at screens way too long.
 
Positive, the substance bromelain that is responsible for your raw mouth found in pineapples is immune modulatory, especially respiratory, so eat up during the pandemic. Negative the substance bromelain is an enzyme that breaks down proteins so you are essentially tenderizing your mouth, like what you do to ceviche.
 
pineapples might be the best-tasting fruit

but they also have a lot going against them: have to flown in from far away, heavy and take up a lot of space in the grocery shopping bag, short window of peak ripeness makes it hard to spread out consumption of a single pineapple, makes everything else taste weird after eating them
 
They're also a pain in the ass to prepare for consumption.

Ooh, that looks cool. Way out of my area, obviously, but I'm an objects guy so may have to check it out. Minnesota press is a good one. Caroline Levine's book on *Forms* is credited generally with bringing the notion of affordances from design theory to the humanities
 
Do NOT eat peanut butter after eating pineapples. NEVER. Whoa. It wasn't even terrible, it was just the absence of the thing that makes peanut butter one of my favorite things in life, and even for that one time, the glimpse of being without that and the taste being replaced in my memory as what I had just experienced post-pineapple was enough to scar me permanently. I still kind of shudder at it.

We are really lucky here. One of the major grocery stores is almost always having whole pineapples on sale for something like 2 for $3/4 or 4 for $5. After a couple of ripening, they are my favorite.

The ripening? That sounds like something trump would call his ms teen america pagent.

Very much opposed to OOO. I'm an inveterate historicist, with degrees in book history and archeology

OOO is arguably the worst development in academia. When I was work study in college, I was event staff at an OOO conference and I don't even know if those donks understood what they were saying.

Latour went real bad in the 10s, but I like his work up to that point a lot. You anti-ANT, Kory???
 
Y’all bitch about RJ a lot, but damn, how does a motherfucker posting about pineapple elicit some of these responses?
 
What is so wrong about being Out Of Office or correctly applying the Order Of Operations
