Unpopular sushi opinion: it's better without soy sauce. So is everything else.

soy sauce is good if food isn't drowned in it

That's because people soak it in soy instead of just dipping it in a touch. I also know people who throw the wasabi right into the bowl instead of adding it separately.

I just eat the wad of wasabi

According to Alton Brown, sushi was supposed to be eaten with your hands because it started as a street food. Don't know if that's true or not. Doesn't matter to me since I know how to use chopsticks because I spent the minutes it takes for an adult to be able to figure it out.

I've been able to eat using chop sticks since I was 3 years old, but they're still terrible. Anything they can do, a fork can do better.

They're outright better for small potentially fragile things you want to pick up, dip in something, and eat (like sushi or dim sum). For most other situations, yeah. Also thinking you have to use chopsticks to eat certain foods or you're not getting the true correct pure experience is silly.

Chopsticks are easier for me than forks for nearly everything including salads.

Drug testing employees is stupid and a waste of time, and completely invasive.

Unless there is an accident then check, but it should never be a condition for employment

I completely disagree. If you value breaking the law over your employment you deserve to be fired no matter how long you worked there or how good of an employee you are. Companies should only employ law-abiding citizens.

I would add that I would like drug testing to also apply to those that work with children. But I agree that for the most part as long as it doesn't affect job performance that it should be no ones businesses what you do outside of work.

They drug test doctors and nurses to hell and back, but just like every other job they only have to be sober at hire and maybe one other time they're notified of in advance for like an annual health screening or something. Unless they show up to work too stoned to function and are forced to go the next day they can be hosed up all the time. So basically if they're too stupid to hide their drug use like a normal person they get fired.

I think it's a fair system since it really only messes up people too dumb or too far down the rabbit hole to function in their job.

I like drug tests by virtue of the fact that I always have an excuse when that marijuana rights activist who's always weirdly aggressive about making sure everyone at the party hits the blunt he wrapped gets in my face. Come on man we're about to go on a pub crawl, why the hell would I want to get zapped out of my mind before we even hit the first bar.

Otherwise, it's a waste of time and all it does is take money out of the pockets of hard-working drug dealers while their clients all cleanse on orange juice for two weeks before the requisite piss test.

Drugs expand your mind and help you perceive the limitless expanse of the universe. We're all different manifestations of the same ongoing uber-reality that is unfolding constantly, like ripples on the same ocean. We're all stardust. Im sorry that many of you are too limited in your ways to understand this, so complacent or more appropriately too fearful to explore beyond your own everyday comfort circle. Its very sad but I guess if you wanna stay limited and never reach your full potential as a cosmic entity, I cant make you. Oh well

I talked to a dude who speculated that most economic movements and protests today were started by the 1 %. Like, all the movements like Black Lives Matter, even feminism, they didnt gain real traction until after Occupy Wall Street. The dude speculated that the rich, the 1% were actually rattled by the idea of OWS and realized that what was needed more was to turn people against each other rather than threaten the oligarchy; which led to what you see today where people of the same "class group" are angry at each other over political disagreements, rather than both of them being angry and working against the guys at the top. It was a form of 'divide and conquer' in his words.
