i don't know if i agree with this.

depends on what we mean by best meal ever (is it just the food itself, or is it also the atmosphere/context/whatever), i guess. but to me it still seems way easier to look up a bunch of recipes, gather ingredients, and make something, or to go back to the restaurant that once made your best meal ever and order something again, than to attempt to have the best sex ever, which depends on your partner or partners.

although, i guess if you're partner is president of the Best Sex Ever Club, it would probably be pretty easy! :)

I really can't even come up with specific candidates. For either.

How about having the best sex ever while eating the best meal ever? (Insert George Costanza reference here.)

re-run it with weird variations

the chance to eat the meal you most enjoyed eating, again, but as if it was prepared one week later in time using the same ingredients, VS, the chance to experience dissatisfying sex you have been involved in, but from the other person's perspective

I can go back and have the best meal I've ever had whenever I want, and have done so several times.

I have been trying to have the best sex I ever had for years and have not recreated it yet.

Best sex.

i think even when i was younger and less disgusted by the very idea of sex i still would have voted food

I see that I needn't amend my vote from several years ago. Good sex and good food are an excellent pairing.

It depends how decadent and filling the food was, unless you're into pre-sex purging.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

about the only variations in my last several years:

the chance to experience dissatisfying sex you have been involved in, but from the other person's perspective, VS,
the chance to experience dissatisfying sex you have been involved in, but the other person pretends it's satisfactory only to dump all their issues on you, all at once, for maximum ammunition in a future argument, VS,
the chance to experience sex that you have been involved in, and is dissatisfying from your own perspective as well as your partner's, VS,
the chance to experience dissatisfying sex you have been involved in, and no other person is involved

I think you're looking for the "autobiography: my complete recent sexual history" poll thread

mh, Monday, 24 December 2012 19:23 (eleven years ago) link

no, but there wasn't a "self-effacing half answers that all but one ilxor will find either amusing or inoffensive" thread

four years pass...

We're four years older lads did we cop on enough and eat at better restaurants since because it's food, 100%

J0rdan S., Monday, 20 March 2017 00:27 (seven years ago) link

I would've voted for meal then. Not sure now.

I like the idea of a good Saturday lunch and taking home leftovers whereas guys can't stop sex halfway and say, "Eh, I'll finish it Wednesday."

it's called edging you prude

You can have both.

At the same time

when you're eating, or basking in a post-meal glow when you feel like your pores are opening up and your body is telling you to rest and you can enjoy the company and surrounds, you are still basically yourself and in control. if you're eating something a stranger has cooked for you it's a v passive experience, there's no personal investment, no effort, no responsiveness or communication, no sense of immanence. the intensity of chemicals in yr mouth isn't comparable to the intensity of another person all over you. can only conclude ppl going for meal are control freaks and misanthropes

I'm usually fucking while I'm eating a big bowl of pasta and I always pass out midway wake up 3 days later and then finish up

qualx, Monday, 20 March 2017 01:36 (seven years ago) link

The sex or the pasta

Something we haven't broached

Variety of possible food pleasures vs the realistic range of sexual delights

Great sex three times a day for the rest of my life? Chore by Thursday lunchtime mmmmm lunchtime

flopson, Monday, 20 March 2017 02:40 (seven years ago) link

there's a creepy dissonance here, though, since the best meals i've ever had have been in the presence of family and/or friends, and the best sex has not at least as far as i know and hope, and pray

sex without a second of hesitation

marcos, Monday, 20 March 2017 13:32 (seven years ago) link

i eat good meals all the time, whether i'm cooking or eating out. there are opportunities to enjoy delicious meals 3x a day. sex is a little harder to come by with that frequency, best i can do is 1x a week and since we are both usually exhausted all the time it is unlikely to be the "best sex ever"

marcos, Monday, 20 March 2017 13:36 (seven years ago) link

I'll always take middling sex over great food, tbh.
