I paid for that bowl, so gratitude is not part of the equation.
If it had been free, your charge would be valid and my 
complaint would not.

As chili is one of the few things I know how to prepare 
(and a reasonably good batch, in all modesty) I tend to 
be a bit critical about the stuff.

Being the son of depression-era parents, I also have this 
habit of eating whatever's on my plate, even when it does 
suck (and especially if I've had to pay for it.)
