Something that’s not super controversial, but you still really stand by it.
I am convinced beyond contestation that carpeting a bathroom is an exceptionally stupid thing to do.
This is not warm, this is cold hard facts
The assignment was “not super controversial, but I still really stand by it.”
My bathroom was carpeted. By my direct ancestors. They built the rest of the world I live in, too.
“Brutal honesty” motherfuckers just want to be mean. Also they can’t handle honesty from others at all.
Allied with - “I just say it like it is”, nope motherfucker, you say it like you see it, consider you might be wrong.
And the ‘I said what I said’ and ‘Fact!’ dipshits.
“Makes you think!”
Almost nothing worse than a thin skinned bully. If you can’t take it, don’t dish it.
Pizza is one of the best food forms we’ve ever come up with. I don’t even care if you use wildly nontraditional toppings, like a chicken vindaloo pizza or a chili dog pizza. Just put the shit you wanna eat on a giant dough, cook it, then cut it up and eat it. Genius.
I’ve been doing a lot of batch cooking lately, and come to the conclusion that everything is a soup.
Pizza is just soup on top of bread.
One of my siblings just… doesn’t like pizza. All of the individual components are fine in other dishes, but not together. I don’t understand.
chicken vindaloo pizza or a chili dog pizza.
Go on, I’m interested…
The fevered dreams of a madman, for now. But if in some sitcom plot, I ever inherit a pizza place form a long-lost uncle, those will be called the Dave Lister and the Blue Hedgehog respectively (I have to assume Sega is more litigious than the BBC).
I once made a seafood and butter sauce pizza for a highschool gf. Hated it myself but she still talked about it years after we spit. Pizza and Sandwiches are the peak of human civilization
It’s no coincidence that most pizza shops also sell sangwiches
Amen
Lukewarm water is great for showering
Any home that doesn’t have central air conditioning should at least have a dedicated circuit outlet by each window. It’s like home designers are trying to make people sweat.
I moved out of my last shitty apartment because the entire thing was wired to two 15amp fuses. If the Fridge compressor happened to kick on while I was cooking on the electric stove and had like the microwave also going it would blow a fuse. My new apartment has circuit breakers, but things aren’t much better. The stove and fridge are on their own circuits. However all of the outlets are on a single breaker. If I try to run the AC in the bedroom at the same time as the living room it trips. It’s rage inducing.
I don’t want to hear about your dog or baby.
What about baby dogs?
oh, go on then
Puppies are always nice
I don’t like puppies. Also unrelated Christmas. I’m a kid’s cartoon antagonist ready to happen.
I get that. The idea of Christmas is nice, and I like that it’s a day off for me, but it is just a lot of extra stress. I’m not even Christian but there’s still just so many societal expectations.
Dogs, fuck yeah. Babies, ugh.
Awe but they’re so cute!
Water is really good, you should drink it every day.
My girlfriend prefers her water room temp, and as someone who loves ice cold water, it’s so weird to me. So I think I’m gonna start thinking of this as her lukewarm take.
I am also a woman of room temp water preference, I’m glad to know there is hope for me in finding a boyfriend
I’m a woman myself too, but I see that @Postmortal_Pop@lemmy.world has chimed in as well! So it looks like there’s hope, haha
Room temp water guy here, but already happily married lol
There are dozens of us!
I didn’t know I had to put this on my tinder bio, you have changed my life
Your girlfriend scares me quite a bit!!

People who are the most uptight about manners and language are the rudest and most vile shit talkers.
A great realization that I had was that many of my language pet peeves were really preferences and not hard and fast rules. Language constantly evolves, regardless of how any one person feels. Clinging to my pet peeves was really just a form of elitism.
Grammar is descriptive, not prescriptive. <- The fancy way to say what you said. :-)

Bleu cheese is the best cheese.
To each their own, I think a good parmesan is my favorite, but blue cheese is pretty up there

The most important political issues are education and the environment, because those determine the future.
Humans have intrinsic value and nobody should be treated cruelly without cause. Aside from in relatively marginal places, that worldview has largely won.
I’d extend it to “people are basically the same everywhere”, but there’s actual disagreement about that.
Except for Nazis
That’s with cause.
The Hague has a modern, Western prison, and a relatively comfortable one at that.
Edit: So no, people convicted of heinous things aren’t always made an exception. And, yes, that’s cause.
Back in the day, anyone could become a slave, and depending on setting anything could be done to a slave. That’s because human rights weren’t really a thing yet.
Honesty is the most important factor in any relationship.
People who are always the hero of their own stories are not trustworthy narrators.
The future ain’t what be it used to be.
