Would you eat a stick of butter for twenty dollars? Anonymous 272906[Reply]

Anonymous 272907

No. I don't get enough exercise to eat something so dense in calories that doesn't even taste good.
For $60 a pop I'd eat several though.

No. I love butter but I don't need 20 dollars that badly.

>i wonder if my dorm would allow me to install one
You reminded me of seeing a tiktok one day where some random woman had the problem of dorm not allowing her to get one and definitely not getting someone to install it for her, so she took it upon herself to install it by watching a tutorial on the internet lol
Did work and she ended up with a nice new bidet, you should do the same if they don't let you, just as long as you're sneaky about it

Every indian woman I’ve ever known has had a powerful odor if they don’t bathe in fragrance every morning.

Maybe its their diet, but paper is fine with alittle water. I use wet wipes. Not knocking bidets, but definitely not a necessity. You can easily keep a pack of flushable wipes with you for public bathrooms.

That goes without saying. An indian giving hygiene/odor advice to anyone is wild. Do they not smell it? Maybe it’s like how smokers cant smell that cigarette smell.

The odor of Indians is really aggressive at times. I keep seeing(smelling) groups of Indians at my tourism job that emanate a very weird chemical smell, almost like battery acid. It's pungent to the point of almost making your eyes water, and lingers for a long time. It must be the spices they use in their food, but it’s extremely weird I would've never thought human would be able to emanate such a smell.

I have a bio-chem practical exam in a few hours. I'm pretty nervous because I haven't studied for it, but I'm pretty sure I know how to actually do it, so I'm de-stressing by drinking some Korean tea I got as a gift, listening to music and finding new audiobooks for my commute to class.

I'm at my boyfriend's house, playing old video games while I wait for him to get back from the train station (he went to pick up his mom from work). Then we're going to have dinner and eat chocolate. I'm playing Super Nintendo games for the first time in years and thinking about how bad I am. I'm going to give up and go watch The Apothecary Diaries.

Art/crafts, math, puzzles/ARGs, obscure Internet stuff, anime, video games. I want to get back into reading. I love nature and walking in the woods, though I don’t do it often because I’m somewhat of a shut-in. I also like sci-fi and anything post-apocalyptic.

I like playing riichi mahjong, videogames of all kinds (but lately I really wanna play coop stuff again like L4D2, RoR2, Lethal, I just don't have anyone for it), baking and cooking in general, cats, astronomy, fashion but only virtually (obsessed with Love Nikki), and weird stuff like astrology, Hellenism, seeing signs everywhere, etc. (yes I have maladaptive daydreaming). My music taste is very basic but idc, I love Coldplay and Imagine Dragons but will listen to literally anything if I vibe enough with it
>Are you a busy person or is it okay to contact you whenever?
College is very chill this year so I have a lot of spare time (plus I'm unemployed), but I'm not very quick to reply because I get nervous and don't know what to say (diagnosed autistic) so sorry in advance for that…

cook your eggs at home with normal tools?

Anonymous 307413

Don’t microwave an egg it will explode

Anonymous 307426

crack it into a shallow microwave safe container. probably want to grease the bottom of it a bit. poke a little hole in the yolk so it doesn't explode and then microwave that shit for about 30-40 seconds on high. it'll be mediocre and the texture will be kinda off, but it's a cooked egg.

Anonymous 307429

Put it in a metal pot and throw in t a few forks or spoons and put it on high for a few minutes to ensure you get adequate iron in your diet :)

Anonymous 307433

Crack egg into small bowl. Polk hole in yolk with a toothpick or fork. Fill with water so that the egg is submerged. Microwave until you hearcthe water start to bubble.

t. used to do this daily.

For a block of butter with measuring lines open the block on both sides and have one side for unmeasured scooping and one where you always go by the line. This way you'll always have somewhat even measures for baking without having to dedicate the whole block

I'm genuinely trying to understand by what mechanism an mere innocent female game character can send some people into an uncontrollable rage?
The fact that this is a global phenomenon is concerning, this seems so unhinged and over the top, I just don't get it.

It just skirts a bit too close to the ‘video games cause violence’ school of thought for my taste. I reject the mentality outright.
While true that someone could develop healthy interests from a fictional character, I don’t think social engineering should be the focus of entertainment.

Anonymous 305379

"How it should be" and "how it is" are very different things. Entertainment has been used for social engineering since time immemorial.

It's a conflation of "Game is bad" with "female leads". Unfortunately, a lot of devs put female main characters in games without making them either good gameplay-wise of story-wise, and use it as a shield for criticism. The same problem with movies.
Women leads are generally the face of those writers/devs so they associate subconciously girl lead = shit

I do have my own "bad take" regarding the visual elements of new Marathon.

Original Marathon was for its time at a normal level of gore, but by today standards it was very gory. Far moreso than a lot of retro shooter games, though less than the modern Doom games.

People did not just bleed a little, grab their chest and fall over. The game used different death animations dependent on cause of death. They were turned into red mulch and finished their explosion animation dozens or hundreds of meters away from the point where they were explode-shot. They had entrails and offal and bone and their death screams were recorded by a man who was also a lead singer in a band. People would kill civilians with the flamethrower just to hear the unique flame death scream. The video documentary of the college boys who coded the game showed them high fiving after triggering a mass explosion of a bunch of different people with a grenade shot, and the word "carnage" was very prominent both in game and in marketing for it.

If you've only played Doom (original, unmodded, when it only had 1 death animation per enemy), or haven't played any boomer shooters before, and are interested in trying Marathon out–pay some attention to how people die. The humans have two or three different death animations depending on whether a weapon made an enemy (or innocent citizen) bleed, burn, or burst apart–this is more attention than was paid to some of the alien enemies, and in Marathon 2 the multiplayer human enemy death animations are really very good. The means of violence generated a specific visual consequence, and human blood is specifically an important visual and gameplay element because if anyone bleeds anything other than red then they are bombs in human form and will run up to you and explode in a shower of entrails that will also take away half of your health and kill anyone nearby.

Original Marathon had zero (0) female sprites, only an omnipresent disembodied feminine artificial intelligence character with no associated image at all. There was a retro style game whose creator said he wanted to carry over the visual language and gameplay of Original Marathon, but used primarily female-presenting (mostly femboy) sprites–it was called "Citadel" and most of its reviews in English mention how deeply uncomfortable, ero-guro-esque and stomach churning the introduction of female characters to the charnel house of a Marathon-stylPost too long.
