Jokes on you, my knife cost me $40 in steel, wood, brass, and sanding belts because I make my OWN knives for my cooking.

You know, I think I might just have two hobbies and one saved me money on the other…

In my experience most adults can boil pasta.

… And boil it… And boil it… And DEAR GOD TAKE IT OFF THE STOVE AND DRAIN IT BEFORE IT BECOMES MUSH!

“throwing together a quick meal” should have it’s own word.

“cooking” to me implies you’re working on something worth the time it takes, something you want to put effort into.

But when I just got home, nothing is easy to make and I have to throw something quick together, it doesn’t feel like really cooking to me. Like im half assing it, it should have a half-assed name.

The difference between “cooking” and “hobby cooking” :

It kind of reads like the thought process of someone who just woke up, too.

For those who want to either go insane, or have limitless limited gloating capability!

Limitless, because to those who know how difficult it is, they will never doubt your skill and dedication.

Limited because to those who don’t know, they don’t care.

And I will have absolutely none of that madness in my life, I’ve gotten enough suffering for many lifetimes… I don’t need to self inflict more!

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a date with Novice and only fun skulls…

More commonly referred to as LASO (Legendary All Skulls On)

Tldr people try to game image recognition, word filters, etc to increase visibility of their post on social media. It works.

People are slaves to the algorithm, even if they claim to not care. If you alter your post to increase visibility, you are playing by it’s rules.

By censoring even potentially blockable words, not only are they improving the odds it will go to a wider audience, they get people to comment “why is that word censored/why is there a random dot/erase spot?” which drives up engagement stats, thus sending it to even more people.

you wouldn’t treat a broken ankle with strong painkillers and continue walking as if nothing was wrong just because it doesn’t hurt anymore - would you?

Of course not! We limp around trying to keep it from hurting, praying to any deity that will listen and some that won’t that it heals before you have to pay for a visit to urgent care.

The pills are just to help us go to work while we mentally figure out how many meals we will be skipping to pay for it.

Now ask me if I’m joking.

I wonder if this is also one of those genetic things like cilantro, because ibuprofen tastes nasty as fuck to me. Like “bitter and my tongue wants to cut itself off to stop the taste even after a drink” nasty.

Something tells me that unlike every other role where he makes people jump through hoops every game regardless of how many decades they’ve voiced the same character, he did not make Hideo Kojima audition for the voice.

I’m not bitter or anything, why do you ask?

I haven’t watched fallout yet, just because I haven’t been in a “fallout” mood since the show dropped, so my only experience with video game shows is Halo.

And I literally couldn’t finish a single episode.

So as long as nobody grabs a shovel, at the very least they can only trip over the bar. It’s as low as can be.

Hi, I’m someone who loves to play video games, absolutely cannot stand to watch other people play games, and for a thankfully brief period, was completely unable to play certain games due to insufficient reflexes.

This would have allowed me to play a wider range of games. I probably wouldn’t have been able to beat dark souls, but plenty of other games would be on the table.

Heres the best part about features like this, and I hope you’re sitting because this might blow your mind: if you don’t want it, and don’t like it… don’t use it.

Hope that helps clear a few things up.

You shouldn’t.

especially if you run it yourself. If you don’t have a loaded sawed off sitting near your server rack in case the machine spirit within grows too strong, you aren’t servering correctly.

I once drove a decked out panto with a friend of mine around the downtown area, so imagine two pantos (fiat panda) all tricked out to look like something you would see in a hot wheels box or need for speed game, bombing around town, literally doing circles around other players.

Armored up so they would have to break out explosives to kill us, but since we weren’t trying to hit anyone, or shoot anyone, just driving around and whenever someone was stopped just circle a few times and move on.

Within half an hour we had about 10 people in a Panto convoy doing the same thing with varying levels of success. Sometimes it looked like a well choreographed dance, but mostly it was a cluster fuck of cars trying not to hit each other as we vibe and cruise.

Then someone came in with a jet and ruined our fun.

Goddamn cardies…

The only time I’ve ever said fuck in front of my mother was when she cut across 3 lanes of traffic to get to the exit, and ended up getting stuck in the zebra divider until there was a big gap in traffic.

When she slammed on the brake and jerked the wheel, upon realizing she wanted to make the exit I just yelled “What that FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?”

Surprisingly even though I was still in high school, she never mentioned it. Either she realized she fucked up and let it slide or she didn’t hear me over the honking of cars, a semi, and the yelling of my dad and sister.

There is a level of professionalism you should have when you work at some places, but personally I think a little crass celebration should definitely be allowed.

That said, whether she knew who he was or not, her actual response wasn’t necessary.

Some people should really meet my transporter pattern buffer…
