Mushrooms on a pizza

TOPPED WITH LONGANISA AND tocino – all over a divan of mozzarella cheese, onions, chili fingers and savory mushrooms, which are all embraced by an oven-baked rolled-edge crust, and sprinkled with flavorful garlic – a delightful pizza was served on a platter on the center table where ten people are dining. Everyone love mushrooms except you…

Now how good was that?


Retort based on the THEORY OF SPIRAL OF SILENCE.

What is it all about? Well, the Spiral of Silence Theory states, “People tend to remain silent when their views are against the majority.” Furthermore, it is based on three premises: 1.People have “quasi-statistical organ,” which is a sixth-sense that allows them to know the prevailing public opinion even without access to polls; 2.People have a fear of isolation and know what behaviors will increase their likelihood of being socially isolated; 3. People are reticent to express their minority views, primarily out of fear of being isolated. – that is according to http://www.uky.edu/~drlane/capstone/mass/spiral.htm

Just like in the aforementioned situation, you’ve had no choice but to like mushrooms because you’ve had to kowtow to the mushroom-lovers. Moreover, you’re preference belonged to the minority group that’s why you’ve felt the need to conceal it. “To conceal the opinions/preferences/views when they fall within the minority of a group,” the theory stresses.

You hate mushrooms, but it will remain in concealment....
