    Male immaturity is repulsive

    Jump

  • 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.

  • That's what we used emulsified sauces for (in addition to flavoring) when I was working in kitchens. Mayo for instance is a tasty sauce, but it'll also prevent the bread from absorbing moisture from the other fillings.

  • 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.

  • Americans, what do typically have for breakfast?

    Jump

  • It's a fiber supplement, helps stuff move along and kind of fends off hunger until lunch since I'm fasting (except for the protein powder) 18 hours every weekday.

  • 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.

  • There are some of us who wake up early to work out and have breakfast with our significant others before work. You don't have to be old to appreciate spending time together, or make room for it in your life.

    My wife leaves for work at 7:30a, I've been up since 5:30a spending the morning with her. Sometimes those two hours are the highest quality time we'll spend together all day, fewer distractions.

  • Why not have both? I've lived in the western US my entire life, but I think pickled herring is delicious, and I made rillettes (which is like a pate) just the other day.

  • As a person of Pacific Islander descent, rice is awesome and goes with everything.

    Also if you're on a budget rice is a cheap way to fill your stomach.

  • Rich people aren't even in the graphic, they're way off the top of the scale. The top of this graph doesn't even get you into the top 5% in my state.

  • Do you notice your friends having wildly different priorities as you get older?

    Jump

  • You sound reasonable, and I don't have all the information, but maybe I can play devil's advocate.

    Suppose your friend is actually a good dad, and is using his time without his kids around to catch up with his friends, listen to what's topical in your life, and then do something other than talk about his kids?

    This is a non-rhetorical good faith question: should kids be the sole focus of their parent's lives once they have them?

    I agree that kids need to be the top priority once people have them, no question there. But aren't parents allowed to have lives of their own as well?

    I don't have kids and I'm at the age where most of my friends have them. The folks I knew whose only focus was on their kids gradually phased out of the group. Many of those people ended up divorced unfortunately. The parents I see regularly spend most of their time on their kids, but also have hobbies and interests outside of just kid stuff.

    People who have their own lives in addition to being good parents seem to be happier and more well rounded. It also makes connecting with them easier for people without kids. I'm up to date on their kids, go to birthdays, and occasionally babysit. We have kid friendly dinners at each other's homes, go camping with kids, etc.. But we also go out once in awhile without them, catch games, play golf.

    I feel like that's healthier.

    Has anyone Pooped in the shower?

    Jump

  • Food poisoning while on a road trip. On a shoestring budget so we were staying at a campground. Everything coming out of both ends simultaneously, doubled over in pain, delirious for ~24 hours. Only available place to do that was while laying on the floor in the campground shower. I was in there all day with the water on until the cleaning crew kicked me out.

    No solids exited my body, it was excruciating.

  • Holy shit you can batch mix your spices in advance

    Jump

  • The only downside here is that some spices work MUCH better when fresh ground, so if you notice a difference in your premixes (not being a strongly flavored as you expect) then I'd try making smaller batches, which may or may not prove to actually be time saving.

    I'm the weirdo who buys almost all of my spices whole, and grinds and toasts the ones that need to be fresh on demand.

  • I like to write them directly on the container, so I don't have to search for the recipe when I run out.

    Standing desks are like gym memberships. Plenty of people (and offices) pay for them but never use them

    Jump

  • I might be in the minority but I love my standing desks. I'll sit once in awhile but I'd guess that 90% of my day is standing.

    And to those who think standing is just being in one position all day and therefore is just as bad as sitting, I completely disagree. In practice I'm constantly shifting around, moving one leg back or forward, or walking in circles when I'm talking during a meeting and don't need to look at my screens. Sometimes I'll bring a chair over and put one knee on the seat for a few minutes to stretch my quads and hip flexors. It also helps if you get a soft pad to stand on or shoes designed for being on your feet all day.

    My desks even go really low, which I squat at for about an hour a day. Full heels on the ground squat, keyboard and screens low enough to work without cranking my neck.

    I've been working behind a desk for 25 years, and next to a true ergonomic keyboard I think my standing desks have done the most to keep my body from breaking down.

  • Is there an actor you can't stand? Do they have any exceptions?

  • I generally agree with you, with my one exception being The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, fantastic movie.
