I think your server might contain a hint as to why…

Not that you’re necessarily Canadian or in Canada, but you probably get more Canadian-centric posts on your local feed.

got into a brawl

bruh

Why yes, yes it does. It’s truly depressing that they don’t see other options for their daughter. Hopefully she makes one herself.

Hopefully they don’t decide to just do it themselves

Oh my god, that’s what I want too. I would love to have a garden and a nice kitchen and just concentrate on my little world. I’m just not selfish enough to fully abandon everything that’s not in my little bubble.

The wanting isn’t the problem, doing it with no thought for anyone else is.

I’m 33 and just taught my first real class at a university. The students are 19-21, and the first thought I had was that they were all babies. They’re not really, and they deserve all the rights that adults are entitled to, but they’re not dateable for me.

I get that as an instructor there’s another layer of responsibility between us, but they don’t even look fully grown to me

I think it’s just a bowl currently full of ravioli

I’m less knowledgeable than the OOP about this. What’s the code you quoted do?

I have a sensory thing about tags, only purchase undecorated, monochrome clothing, and have worn the paint off of my water bottle. Plus, I make my own lunch and pack it in metal Tupperware whose branding is also worn away. It’s wild to me that there’s an application for being a fucking weirdo, but I don’t have any visible ads on my person.

Maybe try to be better. You know, when they go low, we go high

In the 1971 case of Arkell v Pressdram,[76] Arkell’s lawyers wrote a letter which concluded: “His attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of your reply.” Private Eye responded: “We acknowledge your letter of 29th April referring to Mr J. Arkell. We note that Mr Arkell’s attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of our reply and would therefore be grateful if you would inform us what his attitude to damages would be, were he to learn that the nature of our reply is as follows: fuck off.”[77] The plaintiff withdrew the threatened lawsuit.[78] The magazine has since used this exchange as a euphemism for a blunt and coarse dismissal, i.e.: “We refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram”.[79][80] As with “tired and emotional” this usage has spread beyond the magazine.

For context, from the Wikipedia for private eye magazine

That’s several orders of magnitude worse, fuck. Soon they’ll probably close the loop and consider owning a smartphone to be evidence that things aren’t so bad for you, and you don’t need asylum.

There’s a few I’ve spoken to in the German speaking communities, but they live in Germany, so idk that that’s relevant to you.

Do you want help, because that sounds like

Also crowdsourcing a crossword sounds either fun or terrible

It stimulates the salivary glands, and saliva does prevent tooth decay.

Nah, there’s no wood paneling!

I bought cutlery a few years ago and decided to get exactly what I wanted, not what was standard, and I not only ended up with golden-colored, wood handled cutlery that everyone else thought was hideous, I only got fully round spoons, in both teaspoon size and standard soup spoon size.

I loved that cutlery. My old roommate… gratefully tolerates it. I just have a giant mouth and never realized it could be an issue, but even the small ones were surprisingly unpopular

I think of the meme of first world problems as unimportant. Obesity is straight up killing people though, so I don’t know if it really fits. Especially because it’s so strongly inversely correlated with wealth. It’s literally a problem associated with living in the first world and being poor.

Friendlys does! Unfortunately, if I remember correctly, we “cleaned” them by letting them sit in seltzer and then wiping them off before reattaching them. I’m only now realizing that we went to so much effort to do that, but using the same sanitizer as the soft serve machines would have been significantly more effective and easier.

It at least keeps things like black mold or giant bacterial colonies from getting hold, but it’s kind of pointless.

My ex was not noticeably sad about it, but I felt awful for him because of his GERD. He had to stop eating for the day at around 17:00, he couldn’t have caffeine, alcohol, carbonation, anything acidic, capsaicin, or much fat. His mother was from southern Italy and he hadn’t eaten a tomato in more than a decade, and the only fruit he ate was bananas. He was not big on medication, though, so he considered all that to be a good trade off for not taking meds. I can’t imagine making the same choice if a medicine could allow me to have oranges and tomatoes and coffee, but different strokes I guess
