There are some things I just won't say no to. Food, for one. I just love to eat. Bonus points if we're going to go somewhere. Eating can be a very intimate and communal experience.

It's the best, okay? Chinese? Indian? Want a burger? Why don't we hit up a pub somewhere and sit down for a pint and see where our stomachs lead us?

Yeah, my wallet doesn't always like it, but you know what, food is what makes life worth living.

There are plenty of other things out there that people are equally as passionate about.


We heard all about them after Redditor fistbump101 asked the online community:

"What is something you can never say NO to?"

"Free money."

"Free money."

"Well, I wouldn't say no to it, but I'd need some pretty darn concrete assurances that it was actually free. People rarely just give away money with no strings attached."

In our time of rampant economic inequality, there are countless people out there who would looove some free money.

"Food."

"Food. I never say no when offered free food."

YouFavDealGuy

To be fair, I think I'd draw the line at a stranger offering me candy...

"Staying in..."

"Staying in over going out."

busyB_83

You know, even as someone who is pretty much an extrovert... the occasional moment when I've had plans get canceled is a level of joy that I really enjoy experiencing.

"In that order."

"Money, weed, ice cream, sexy times. In that order."

LazySilver

I'm pretty sure Lil Wayne has a song about that.

"Walking in the woods..."

"Walking in the woods when the weather is pristine."

thomport

A lovely feeling. Want to feel at peace? Take a nice stroll in the woods. Just make sure to stay on the path.

"My mother's Sunday roast."

"My mothers Sunday roast. And I mean a PROPER. English Sunday roast. With actual gravy, not the American stuff. Roast potatoes, roast leg of lamb, carrots, peas, Yorkshire puddings."

"Especially on a cold, wet, rainy Irish winter day after you’ve just come in from the cold and changed into sweatpants and a warm hoodie. Very particular but amazing."

Pitiful-Bass-535

Oh, you're definitely speaking my language. I love all of that and it's one of my favorite things whenever I'm in Ireland or the UK!

"The best I've done..."

"Buying a pet I want. The best I've done is wait three days but we went back and got the rats."

kooc98

I hope those rats are doing well!

"Cinnamon rolls..."

"Cinnamon rolls and almost anything from Taco Bell that doesn't have beans potatoes or gravy."

broken_doll_911

You had me until you got into all your Taco Bell stipulations! How dare you, sir or madam! How dare you!

"A big piece..."

"Cutting myself a big piece of chocolate cake."

Chaleowin

You had me in the first half, I'm not going to lie.

"A new Xeno game..."

"A new Xeno game from Tetsuya Takahashi and his team."

[deleted]

Ah, I see that you, too, are a person of culture.

Admit it, you have weaknesses too! There is something out there that is your kryptonite!

Have some suggestions of your own to share? Feel free to tell us more in the comments below!

Trump Hit With Blistering Factcheck After Making Patently False Claim About Prices Going 'Way Down'

President Donald Trump was swiftly fact-checked by CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale after he claimed to members of the press that "almost every price has come way down" following Joe Biden's presidency.

Earlier in the day, Trump bragged to reporters that the United States has the "best poverty," sparking immediate criticism. He continued to lie later, even as inflation remains above the level recorded when Biden left office, economic growth has slowed, and the cost of filling a gas tank has surged roughly 50% since the war against Iran began.
