  I invited my friend Nick to try a new restaurant with me. This restaurant was the latest thing, and since Nick was a foodie, I thought he would have an interesting take on the meal.
...
Anita: So, what did you think of the first course?
Nick: I thought it was passable.
Anita: Just passable?
Nick: Yes, it was a run-of-the-mill dish you could find in any fine dining restaurant. No gourmet1 would be bowled over by it.
Anita: Oh, I thought it was pretty good. What about the main course?
Nick: I thought the fish wasn’t seasoned properly and it was a touch overcooked.
Anita: I’m sorry to hear that.
Nick: And the wine pairing was all wrong.
Anita: I’m not a wine aficionado2, so I guess my palate isn’t as sophisticated3 as yours. I thought the wine was wonderful.
Nick: Hmm, in my opinion, the entire meal was forgettable.
...
That was the last time I invited Nick to join me for a meal. I thought the meal was delicious, but Nick’s comments left a bad taste in my mouth!
