  • if its rush hour on a highway, everyone is driving under the limit.

    This might be true in a lot of places, but let me introduce a counterpoint: Los Angeles.

    We invented freeways, and I’m convinced we’ve perfected shitty traffic. Get on the 405 anytime between 6a and 10p? Gridlock, everyone is going below the speed limit. Get on basically any of our other freeways at rush hour? Yeah, that’s going to be us doing our best impression of NASCAR, driving bumper to bumper at least 10 over the speed limit.

    It’s so well known that it’s a meme at this point. Every holiday season there’s a bunch of posts on social media about visitors needing to get with the program. My favorite this year was the “stay the fuck away from the left lane” guy.

    Is it safe? Probably not. Is it reality in LA? Absolutely.





  • I definitely agree with your main point.

    I need a husband who isn’t dealing with emotional baggage

    Good fucking luck, every human has emotional baggage. I think the point you ought to be making is you want someone who deals with their shit in a mature and healthy way.

    who can be supportive for me

    Don’t forget that relationships are a two way street, everyone needs support, some more than others

    rejection has to be performed with male emotional fragility in mind.

    Eh, not really. If we rule out physical violence (hopefully) you can reject folks however you want. If you’re a jerk, sometimes people will be mean back. Sometimes even if you’re nice people will be dicks. Stay safe, disregard what people say if you don’t care about them, and move on.



  • I don’t know why, I’m pretty sure hotdogs are more expensive per pound than ground beef at my local shop. 70/30 (which is fattier than I normally purchase) was $3/lb last time I was there, hotdogs are almost double that. Maybe that’s just a local thing?

    I think this labelling is just marketing. Given the name of the product contains “hamburger” they can assume anyone buying it already knows they can add ground beef. I think they just added hotdogs to the label to give people ideas about other proteins they can use.

    It’s been decades since I’ve eaten Hamburger Helper, but I recall liking it more with hotdogs.




  • Weekdays: 5g psyllium husk, 5g creatine, 30g whey protein, double Turkish coffee, 1 liter of water.

    Weekends: 3 thick cut slices of bacon, small potato grated and fried into hash browns, 2 eggs sunny side up, pour over coffee, in addition to the weekday supplements.

    My wife eats oatmeal or a French omelette during the week, which I make. And something more hearty on the weekend, depending on her workout schedule.
