Having not read all the responses people may have said these same things to you already.

On White Castle:

I'm from the deep south. We have a resteraunt
much like White Castle here, Krystals. It's
really the exact same thing - and I love them.
Of course, I love onions. And I ate Krystal
burgers as a kid - I think that has something to
do with it.

Of course, I can't eat them a lot, or more than
a few at a time (I have known people who would
buy the sack of 12 and eat all but 4 and then
eat the 4 as a snack later on!) because they do
horrible things to your insides.

On asphalt:

I've never encountered the kind that makes your
turns sound like you are going 80mph, though I
think that would be interesting. But I HAVE
encountered some that makes your car sound like
there's a 747 above you (It does not, however,
appear to be red in any way ever that I have
seen) and my first thought was, indeed, that
there was a problem with my tires and they were
about to blow up, which would have been odd and
annoying since I had just gotten them all
replaced two days earlier. But no, it was just
the newly paved part of the interstate I drive
regularly.
