Fancy cupcakes are 70% icing, really not that nice and a waste of money

Good but I have a cold right now and when I woke up I felt like my lips were gonna crumble through breathing through my mouth all night… I have a really good immune system so colds typically last only around 4-5 days though!
I think you’re in the wrong thread mate!
Haha omg I meant to post this on “how is your week going”! 😂 😅
Haha np I’ve done similar many times!
The contemporary disdain for postmodernism was a Psy op designed to completely destroy philosophy from the inside. And the supposed replacements for post modernism (metamodernism or whatever) were just pop culture millennial distractions that just took attention away from the philosophical issues of the inadequacies of language and crisis of our communications systems. We became stuck in limbo. Cultural conversation dumbed down by useless culture wars articulated in low attention span pop culture commentary and therapy speak.
The “phones are bad and suck your life away” crowd has gotten way too big. Yes, it’s easy to waste time on them, but that’s just something you gotta learn, like not watching TV series all night. You’re a grown up, deal with it. Also maybe you feel bad for spending all that time on your phone just because feeling bad for that feels cool? It’s actually your life you can spend it however you want. You don’t need to be productive or successful to be a worthy human. Be a lazy shit that plays stupid phone games while on a train to work.
That exclusive content in physical games is a cruel disservice to late discoverers. “Exclusive” content should just be delayed public release content instead - something for the early adopters, but not unavailable to people years later.
Even just the normal game, if they’re discontinuing production, should be made available as a digital purchase (including STL and print-ready files) for people coming along years later. We have the technology to not screw over potential future fans, and it’s not that expensive to keep a small website running - especially if they’re still going as a company. Looking at you, CMON Games.
Hard agree, fancy cakes are all looks, taste is secondary.
Give me an ugly tasty cake every damn time!
Funnily enough, they don’t look tasty.
They look like over processed sponge.
I mean they aren’t not that, but sometimes they just hit, I prefer them frozen…
If the ingredient of whatever snacks/dessert you’re making is mostly chocolate, only use couverture or don’t even try. There’s place for compound but not here.
We should be using soap and water after popping, toilet paper alone is barbaric
No idea if it’s barbaric but it certainly is not as clean as it should be. At least, I think so.
Hard agree. Bidet + soap is the most hygienic way. I was actually surprised to learn that even some bidet users don’t use soap and literally just blast their ass and hope it washes away everything. You’re already halfway there, might as well use soap and be completely clean.
Oh no, I’m not washing my ass with soap every time, but I commend you for commitment to the cause.
Ikr, bidet yes, I don’t have one but I have used one and its better. Soap though sounds like a way to have a really dry butt.
Had a bidet. Had to get rid of it.
The toddler thought it was hilarious.
Bum gun or Bidet. The humane way to toilet.
I have yet to experience one but bidets seem like the dream.
If you ever make your own bathroom or get your choice in the matter, go full french: get the separate porcelain fixture that has separate hot and cold valves, with the soap and towel.
I have a Toto seat and, while it’s nice, the stream is small, leaking potential poo water down your legs onto the inner edges of the seat is… (It doesn’t seem to happen, but still), and the internal warm water tank is small.
I used my ex’s much cheaper one a bunch when we were dating, and his was cold only but like a garden hose flow rate. It was so fucking fast and felt so much nicer. But didn’t oscillate, have aim, pressure, heated seat, dryer, or any of that stuff…
Plus, without the soap, I don’t really want to use a towel to dry my bits off.
So ideally, it would be temperature adjustable, PORCELAIN AND NOT PLASTIC, high flow/adjustable, be an actual bidet where you can fit your hands down there to wash yourself with soap and water, and then have a designated towel so that you eliminate more if not all tp usage.
They’re are cheap bidets out there, and the are premium ones. The premium ones (like toto) are worth it, but I’d start with an inexpensive one to see if you enjoy it first.
There’s very cheap options if you want to feel clean
You just gave me a really good idea for a portable bidet actually. I normally use a little squeeze lotion bottle but it doesn’t have the required water power… Now I gotta find some of those tiny water guns we used to have as kids.
Tf is a bum gun
It’s exactly what it sounds like in this context. Think of a garden hose attachment with a trigger. You point it at the right spot, pull the trigger, and wash your bum clean.
My mental image is in the shower… Yeah, actually, why not just use the shower with a cooter cleaner instead of a bum gun? Or… Are we talking about the same thing?
Well a bum gun is specifically designed for the job, but yeah it’s probably the same idea as what you’re thinking of.
You could use the shower but the shower heads are not typically installed next to the toilet.
I sort of agree, but I also poop 5times a day. That would take up a lot of my time.
I do several rounds as well and I can tell you washing with soap and water using a bidet is much milder than wiping yourself raw with toilet paper. Washing once per round also takes the same amount of time as wiping several times until you feel “clean”.
That doesn’t sound healthy
Have you checked with a doctor?
Yep, I’ve always been like that.
Some people can’t see well from birth… doesn’t mean you can’t get glasses, or in your case go see a doctor (and get a poop infusion to fix your gut flora XD ).
But seriously, it could be worth checking out. Maybe you have a tumor or cancer or one of those
beowold smeagalsor whateverEdit: bezoar. Seriously it could be curable and you could poop once a day. Think of the free time for activities!
I also poop several times a day. Went and saw a doctor and he said “yup, totally common, and nothing to worry about.” Normal humans poop between 1-6x a day. Pretty crazy that there can be such a variance.
It’s even funnier for babies. It’s normal for them to poop in between every 12 days or 12 times per day.
… I don’t think that’s normal bud
Branston beans are superior to Heinz beans.
Yes!!! I have some Branston beans, always chosen over Heinz any day.
This is the first I’ve heard of Branston beans, but now I’m excited to try them when I’m back in England in a couple of weeks.
I was there for Christmas and bought a relatively huge jar of pickle before I remembered I wasn’t going to be able to fly with it. A lot of pork pie was eaten that day.
The M&S own brand beans are the best I’ve had. I found Heinz to taste too artificially sweet.
Fuck Heinz in general. They don’t make things taste like actual things, just sweet crap.
Their tomato sauce is terrible. Tomatoes taste tangy, not sweet.
I am appalled
I personally really dislike icing. Anything it’s on I think is ruined. The only thing that’s worse is meringue. Hate that stuff.
no problem. send any icing you dont want over to me. i am here to help
This comment really confused me after reading 6 about bum-washing.
To be fair I made it when there was just one comment about butt washing.
Ooh! Can we be cake buddies? When it comes to cake, corner pieces are my favorite because the icing is usually the only part I want.
Absolutely! You can have all the icing you want from me.
Probably a literal one, I like hillwalking and am clumsy
Metaphorically, it’s guitar tonewoods. If you’ve got a solidbody electric guitar you can make the body out of a goddamn breezeblock and it’ll sound absolutely fine. Whatever difference the body/neck material makes is negligible compared to strings, scale length, pickups, resistors, and amps. Acoustic guitars are another matter, but for solidbody electrics it is 99% delusion and marketing
Worth saying that different woods can look really nice and that is probably worth something if youre not going with a paintjob.
Oh for sure. I’m not against someone going for flame maple because it just looks great. That’s still honest about what it is and why
God damn tomato slices in everything from hamburgers to toasted sandwiches as if everyone is supposed to like raw tomato by default is pure discrimination against the non tomato eating populace.
Imagine a world where all hamburgers are custom and properly made.
I want a burger now.
Yeah. Tomato goes on pizza. Why the fuck are we not putting pineapple, something that doesn’t belong on a pizza, on hamburgers instead?
Tomatoes are notorious for being impossible to remove from a burger. 6 children died last year trying to remove them. So many vegetable-adverse people put through incredible pain having to ask for it to be held. When will this injustice end?
This, but about onions.
Store brand is as good or better than A-brands in about 90% of all cases.
Except cheap macaroni
I have had enough times in which this was not the case, so dispute the percentage. But this can be the case, yes.
Store brands are often made in the same factories and on the same production lines. The differences can be truly negligible.
True, but in many cases the product is graded by quality. And the low quality graded product goes in the more generic labeled packaging. This doesn’t matter for something like flour or baking soda, but open a can of green beans and compare.
Stores like Trader Joe’s differ from this by specializing in rebranding overstock or by ordering additional run instead of buying cast offs. So you’ll often get goood quality from their store brand merchandise.
Cubic meters and tonnes suck when you’re talking about numbers bigger than 1000, which is pretty much every time. Just use liters or grams and slap on whatever SI prefix that makes the most sense for the order of magnitude you’re dealing with.
Who wants to see numbers like 7900000000 W, 500000 V or 0.00001 g. Nobody, that’s who! Use SI prefixes to make the numbers easier to read and understand. We’re already doing that in many places. It’s not that hard.
If we’re using SI prefixes, shouldn’t we be dropping usage of litres in favour of cubic decimetres (or whichever prefix is appropriate for the volume you have)?
Square and cubic units are not making my life easier. Quite the opposite.
For example, when you jump from square kilometers to square megameters, the surface area just explodes even though there’s plenty of interesting and useful stuff going on in between the two. You would end up having a stupid number of digits which totally defeats the purpose of having prefixes in the first place. Same applies to cubic units, but the problems are just even bigger.
That’s why I prefer to use ml, l, kl, Ml, Gl, Tl etc. for volumes. We could do the same with surface area too. Maybe dig up the archaic are unit and start using sensible prefixes to make calculations easier.
You know what, fair points
Motorcycles are the best means to go camping.
When you’re travelling, you are outside. Open the visor, breathe in the pine wood air. Unlike a car where you’re effectively disconnected from your surroundings, you’re much more in them. You can also reach much more secluded places, so you can just go to “that spot” vs spend the night there. It’s almost as good as bicycles or hiking in that regard but unlike those two, you can also cover distances, spontaneously deciding to just hit the road for a day and sleep 1000 km further south the next night.
I live near the A7, a North/South directed highway in Germany going all the way from DK to AT and I also live near a motorcycle hotspot/meetup point.
In the summer, there are so many Scandinavians doing just that, making long distance travels with motorcycles, sometimes even with these small motorcycle trailers attached. They go camping in my town and continue the next day further south (or back up north respectively).I don’t have a bike nor do I like camping, but I love seeing these guys every time :D
Unless the post itself is a commentary, posters should put their own opinions in the comments, not the title or description.
That way they can be up/downvoted and discussed separately.
Yep I should have thought
No worries, it’s just a hill I’ll die on :)
