It can be really, really difficult talking to my friend Darryl:
Darryl: I had a mean convo with Rachel the other day. You know she swallows?
Harvey: This surprises you?
Darryl: Well, yeah. She doesn't even like mustard.
Harvey: I know I'm probably setting myself up here, but what does mustard have to do with it?
Darryl: Dude, everything. They're about the same level of offensiveness, you know?
Harvey: What are you talking about?
Darryl: Think about it. Mustard is not your everyday condiment. It doesn't have the broad appeal of ketchup or ranch. It's more refined. It's more of a... an adult flavor.
Harvey: Like come?
Darryl: Exactly. It's an acquired taste. I mean the aromatics alone--
Harvey: Stop. Please.
Darryl: And it's the type of thing that, even if you like it a lot, you can't just slather it on anything you know? You can't put it on a pancake.
Harvey: Come?
Darryl: No man, mustard. Mustard is to be respected. It's for the refined palate.
Harvey: Because it's an "adult flavor."
Darryl: Yeah, though I used to love mustard when I was a kid. Especially Dijon...
Harvey: I was going to ask where Dijon fit into all this.
Darryl: ...I'd eat that stuff straight from the jar. Oh, man it was sooo good. I'd get it all over my face--
Harvey: I gotta go.
