in charlie and the chocolate factory (2005) (the best version imo b/c i saw it as a kid and the magic only works around then) a lady said that chocolate is an aphrodisiac and i’ve completely internalized that as true.

i hope it is, it sort of makes sense. people buy chocolates on valentines day

    KInda stupid question, innit? If I still have it, I don’t think it’s a misconception. You’d have to tell me.

    But then, anyone can make a mistake. Doesn’t make you a bad person. I make mistakes every day. I shouldn’t have said stupid, I should said… whatever they call it now. Meathead?

    I used to think orange juice and milk etc should be kept in a jug in the fridge for some reason.

    I didn’t know it was because they couldn’t show packaging on TV.

    That the police is there to help.

    In childrens Cartoons, cops are often depicted as “friendly helpers”, fair, reasonable, compassionate and competent.

    Sweet Lifegiver, was that illusion shattered.

    It is an aphrodisiac, but not a very strong one. Various types of nuts can be more benefitial to the libido than chocolate is… or a combo of them, yeah, that can also work I guess.
