I wouldn't say I hate Chalet Suzanne [1]; it's just that I'm having some cognative dissonance between my expectations [2], Bunny's enthusiam, and the reality of the place.
In fact, out entire dinner conversation this evening was spent talking about the right word to describe Chalet Suzanne [3]. I offered my description, but Bunny felt the connotations were too negative, and offered a few alternatives. But I felt the connotations of the words she suggested were more negative than the word I used, and countered with some alternatives. Bunny countered that those were too negative and suggested some other ones, which I felt were more negative than what I was feeling.
Yes, our entire dinner conversation was spent trying to compromise on a word that describes Chalet Suzanne, and about the best we can agree on is “character.”
It has “character.”
