  • Satire rule

    Jump

  • This is how I feel about Breaking Bad. At first, you feel kind of bad for Walt and his situation, but that should quickly chang especially as the seasons go on and he reveals how much more of a piece of shit he really is. But I also distinctly remember as people watched the show in real-time how fans would idolize Walt. Really baffled me at the time.

  • I was going to take this opportunity to plug one of the vexillology circle jerk communities, but they both seem pretty dead. So I'll just enjoy this cool rat flag and be on my way.

  • See... You have to get into the mind of a straight man from the 1950s and ask yourself one of 2 questions: Is this a woman's thing? Or would I fuck this thing? Cars are considered "beautiful" and "sexy" and therefore fuckable by a man. I hope this has been a good lesson in outrageous sexism.

  • I try to get this song played at every wedding I go to. Some DJs are skeptical and reluctantly put it on and are then surprised when everyone gets up to dance.

  • My friends and I started an "Indie Game Club" which is similar to a book club but for indie video games. It's really helped to branch out and try new things that I wouldn't usually try. And of course, if you finish the game fast enough, you can get back to the one game you have 10000+ hours in. But I'd say probably 1/3 of the games we've played I liked so much that I didn't want to stop playing and go back to my usual and used the whole time to just keep playing. It's been an excellent experience!

  • What are you watching and what do you recommend this week?

    Jump

  • I'm watching The Chair Company which is Tim Robinson's latest show. I can't recommend it to everyone, but if you're into his style of comedy, you'll love this show. It's framed as a serious mystery drama, but there's so many rediculous jokes sprinkled in I can't help but laugh in spite the serious tone.

  • Why don't people return their shopping carts?

    Jump

  • I always return my cart rain or shine no matter how far away the return is. But there was one time I didn't when I moved to a new neighborhood and went to the local grocer for the first time. This particular store shared a parking lot with a hardware store. I parked in a spot I thought was on the grocery store side of the lot, but I guess not? I bring my cart out and I'm almost to my car when suddenly the wheels lock up and I can't move the cart anymore. turns out they have a system in their carts to prevent people from stealing them. But I guess the zone for that is up to interpretation because I really feel like I was parked on the grocery side of the lot even if off to the side a bit. I ended up leaving the cart and just walked my groceries to my car. I blame the store for not properly marking the zone or improperly setting it in the first place. Not much I could do about it otherwise.

  • What old movies hold up because of a lack of special effects or because clever use of effects?

  • I love Redlettermedia and that was a great series!

  • The fake sugar garbage has gotten out of hand. I had to start making my own granola because most of the granola had fake sugar in it. I'm glad I did tho. I can make it with whatever I want in it and no one can stop meeeeeee!

  • During COVID lockdowns, my husband and I started coming up with movie anthologies or themes we could watch so we would A) always know what to watch next and B) further educate ourselves in film. My favorite anthology to date has been John Carpenter. I had never seen a John Carpenter movie before and we went through all of them and it was a blast. But out of all of his films, The Thing was by far the most impactful. My husband and I both grew up on the Internet and are highly desensitized to gross and scary things. But we were both on the edge of our seats while also appreciating the masterful prosthetics and puppetry that went into that movie. I always have to warn people, that I can't recommend it enough but it's not for the faint of heart. Definitely one of the Great horror films ever made.

  • This is why I roll my eyes at people who talk about how healthy honey is. Like sure it's better for you than sugar for very minute reasons, but at the end of the day, it's still sugar. But you know... honey is "natural". Marketing is a helluva drug.

  • The Perfect Picture of Helth

  • A more accurate description would be an "imbalanced" meal. It contains ingredients that would give you needed nutrients, but at the wrong levels. Too much fat and carbs, vs "vegetables" which are also processed and full of added sugar and salt. It's not the worst thing you could eat, but it isn't great. To your point, that's why moderation is so important.

  • Here's why bread making is the best hobby:

    1. Minimal equipment and ingredients to get started
    2. Amount of time is up to you. You can select a recipe that suits your needs. Plus you can go and do other things while the dough proofs and cooks, so if you make a 3 hour loaf, you still get some of that time back.
    3. Most of bread making is working on your skills and knowledge and is highly rewarding as a result
    4. You make tasty bread that will either contribute to your weekly pantry or makes a great gift for others.
    5. Store bought bread sucks ass. Once you start making your own, you'll never go back.
