the bastardization of pineapple

Paul: Have some pineapple, Andrea.

Andrea: No, thanks.

Paul: You should have some. It's nature's candy.

Andrea: Candy is nature's candy.

Paul: No, candy is a man-made bastardization of nature's true candy.

Andrea: You can't bastardize something that had to be created separately.

Paul: Fine. Candy is bastardizing the flavor of fruit.

Andrea: Fine. Enjoy your non-bastardized pineapple.

The only thing that saddens me more is your aversion to strawberries. Un-bastardized strawberries, of course. Have you considered fruit-therapy hypnosis?

i know, i know, my aversion to fruit is a sad, sad thing. i have been working on this, though, and pineapple and strawberries are actually two fruits i can eat without barfing....i think i was just feeling contrary.
