What things are both the best and the worst at the same time? - eviltoast

I had a discussion with a friend recently and during that discussion, one comment was “Fitted sheets are really both the best and the worst”, of course referencing them as awesome when put on a mattress and the worst when you’re trying to fold them.

What else do we have that would qualify for being awesome, but also the worst in a different context?

    Interesting, would you mind elaborating a bit? What do you see as the good parts? What do you see as the bad parts?

      When you’re hungry food is delicious and if it’s hard to get at your body won’t let up about it.

      But, when you eat ordinary food it complains about a lack of quality or taste.

      And then when you eat great food it stops talking about the sensation after a single dish. (There’s some professional point taste reaches where it’s too long and it just stops being great).

      Heckin long drama story!

        I love everything about food, and I love all food. Cheap food, expensive food, fast food, food I prepared myself, all cuisines. All food is amazing to me. I plan my vacations around how many meals I can eat and how many places I want to try. I want to travel the world and eat every food.

        Except now I’m trying to lose weight, and food is my enemy. Portion control is so hard. 😭 Though I find it’s much easier when I prepare food at home.

        Thanks for explaining. Hadn’t actually thought about it until you said it, and now I can’t stop thinking about it.

      Not OP but: you have to eat but most of the best foods make you fat or are bad for you in some other way.
