Brother, we have all of those ingredients everywhere. We have a little British store run by expats who could get whatever packaged crumpet you use. Shit, I can make a batch of crumpets in about 15 minutes.

It’s not like a crazy recipe that needs balanced flavors to be done right. Like I’ve never had a good poutine outside of Quebec. It’s always sad beige gravy with the wrong seasonings or mozzarella or frozen fries or all of the above. It is never right.

What we can also talk about is local places making local dishes but they do it wrong and cheap or “good enough” and people come from abroad and try the dishes and think they’re mid because they went to the wrong place.

TL;DR: I love poutine.

Yes.

If they hurt no one else and infringe on no one else’s rights I have no business policing what two consenting adults do with their bodies, time and/or money.

Edit: it should also be totally legal, like all drugs.

It is octopodes. It’s Greek and it follows the Greek pluralisation convention.

Philosophical phantasm, they know but accepting it’s true in a real sense would cause them to have an identity crisis.

I grew up on a farm, I’ve killed and slaughtered my own food my whole life and I always felt good about eating meat because of that fact.

As I get older I’m really starting to hate killing things, I don’t want to end a life at all. My couple of vegetarian days might turn into a whole lifestyle.

The government is directly controlled by their individual billionaires.

Incoming CIA sponsored coup/assassination.

Cuba repossessed land that foreigners in the US (Florida) were making money off of so they could support their own people. The dispossessed Americans turned this into a voting issue and have had the US leadership by the balls over it since. Other countries in the region who want to suck up to the US uphold the embargo on their end as well. This keeps Cuba in a constant state of extreme poverty. It’s violence.

Or we move on with our lives and accept that fruit don’t have to be sweet and vegetables don’t have to be savory. Life is beautiful and nature constantly challenges expectations.

He’s a Nazi.

I’ve found myself scrolling through stories or reels or whatever a particular platform calls it and coming across something even slightly polarizing and heading right for the comments looking for opinions I find stupid or incorrect and then-

realizing I’m falling for the algorithm, deleting my half written comment and moving on.

They mean Catholics and Protestants but they’re morons and their religious leaders have convinced them that Catholics are somehow not Christians.

Ah haha I see

Why would they tailgate you at all if they could pass you? Is this common somewhere?

A lot of what Midwesterners consider “salad”.

Clearly you’ve never had rich friends, they’re notorious for having everything and never using it.

“Oh man, I didn’t know you play guitar. That’s a beautiful Orange double stack and Thunderverb.”

“I bought that when I tried to learn guitar, haven’t used it since.”

What’s going on here? Mincemeat pies are delicious.

Disinterest? Disgust.

I think at this point I only ever go to fast food places when a friend who loves fast food places is over and we happen to go get food. Happens maybe once every couple of years.

I think I’m at an age that if I want burgers or barbecue or something unhealthy or greasy is rather make it myself and have it be extra dirty and less expensive.

Great descriptions! Lately I’ve been working on the (pardon me, I couldn’t find a use for them) distal interphalangeal knuckles, just hanging from my finger tips. Pretty much all the good climbers at my gym can do that with weight added on a belt so I’ve still got a long way to go. But yeah I used to lift pretty heavy and this was pretty much impossible before I started practicing, just seem like totally different parts of the body although they’re all in the hand.
