What is the opposite of not everything having an opposite? You know. Not the thing, but the opposite of the thing. What's that?

bowl of green tea ice cream =/ owl of wasabi
The two are visually indistinguishable

posted by pieisexactlythree 09 January | 19:31

cold liver, I think. or cod liver, maybe.

Owl of Wasabi, sounds like the Sushi Chef of The Round Table or something.

Taz - Maerc eci is actually a Welsh term that means "sock-wearing ice cream eater."

Cool, innit?

I keep thinking, hot vinegar, and then I think, no, that is too gross even for mecha. SO I will say, black coffee and cheap whiskey, mixed, is the opposite of ice cream. Personally, I prefer the coffee/whiskey mixture.

Ice cream - cool, sweet, available in a variety of flavors, and scoopable.
Dick Cheney - uncool, bitter, available only in NeoPoliCon, but may be scoopable.

oh, gah! You guys are making me laugh way too much, all over this site... and it's 3 in the morning, and why am I still up? It's your fault.

and that's not the opposite, but the inside-out of ice cream, like if ice cream had an "outtie", that would be it.

You're all wrong.

The answer is.....cilantro.

posted by bunnyfire 09 January | 21:50

You're half-right, bunnyfire. The true opposite is cilantro in soy sauce.
