Here are some weird answers to to answer the previous post -
(Be warned! This post was typed at the peak of today's most boring moment. Super duper hyper mega long essay alert! And, for the curious and knowledge-starved, watch the time. Don't spend too long here!!!)
First of all, let me introduce the process of commercial flavour creation. Most food and beverage companies do not manufacture their own flavourings. Instead, they employ the services of professional flavourist from flavour companies. It is a flavourist's job to combine extensive knowledge of the chemical palette with artistic creativity to develop distinctive flavours.
The client company will attempt to communicate exactly what type of flavor they seek, in what application it will be used, and any special requirements (e.g., must not be of animal origins, maybe because the target consumer group consists of my mum and Zhi). The communication barrier can be quite difficult to overcome since most people aren't experienced at describing flavors (even as an A level student, the only technical smell term I can easily employ is... pungent). The flavorist will use his or her knowledge of the available chemical ingredients to create a formula and compound it on an electronic balance. The flavor will then be submitted to the client for testing.
The flavor company may conduct sensory taste tests to test consumer acceptance of a flavor before it is sent to the client or to further investigate the "sensory space." This means that the favourist will make a variety of 'grape flavours' and do a survey on 'which one do you think taste and smell most like grapes?' In fact, in the 20th Century, Cadbury sent out boxes of experimental chocolates to schools throughout the Great Britain weekly to conduct such surveys. That said, it's not the flavour-maker's fault that the grape flavour doesn't have the smell you believe it should have. Rather, it's you, as a consumer, whose mistake is just accepting it as grape flavour just because they said so.
Now for the next question, one should be reminded that the word 'virgin' is derived from the Latin 'virgo', meaning 'woman inexperienced in sex'. Coincidentally, it is also my Zodiac sign, but that's not important. More important is this question: If a lesbian is 40 years old and had had sex another woman for like, 50 times in her life, are you going to say "she's a virgin', or translated "she's a woman inexperienced in sex"? Also, virginity is usually evidenced by an intact hymen. This membrane is stretched and sometimes torn when a woman had her first vaginal penetration, whether by a man or by a... dildo? I feel weird saying all these. Anyway, varying due to personal opinions too, the answer is biased toward negative based on the information I provided. However, it is not limited to those as for example, religious views heavily influence such decision making, not to mention certain religions classify homosexuality as an uncondonable act of evil!
This is all for now. I think I will 2 questions at a time. Meanwhile, I believe I have the need to do a little bit of research on the New York Texas driving license thing. I am not familiar with how things work over there.
Pardon me for the long essay. Ray George would be proud of me. While he's sun-bathing and enjoying his suite in Australia, I am practicing for GP here!!! Goodbye for now!
