She and Julien are into some dumb vegan poo poo that annoys me, but they're not obnoxiously promoting it. I really like that they make a point of specifying they're gluten-free because of actually having celiac disease, and that people who do so for no reason actually make poo poo harder for those who do have a genuine medical problem.

I had a few questions I always checked before reading anything else, stuff like "How often do you read books?" or "Is separation of church and state important?". Nowadays I'm sure that list would grow to include "Should vaccines be mandatory?" or "Who did you vote for in the 2016 election?".

ToxicSlurpee posted:Yup. A diamond company wanted to sell more diamonds and make more money so they reached as far up their own asses as they could and yanked out "you demonstrate your love by spending at least a month's salary on an engagement ring. Oh by the way it has to be a diamond and we just happen to have a lot of really nice ones!" You stopped too soon. You didn't get to the part where they realized they could label and mark up poo poo diamonds that used to be sold cheaply for industrial purposes as "chocolate diamonds", because every woman is obligated to lose her mind at the mere mention of chocolate.

Lakedaimon posted:My friend was engaged to a woman who set a minimum price on her engagement ring, it had to be at least like $500 more than the one her sister got. My dad's bitch of a new wife had never had a real job in her life, lived with her rich parents who were paying for her to just take 1 class a semester endlessly to pretend she was getting a degree and working toward some kind of career. 100% gold digger. I was 11 or 12 when I distinctly remember a demand being made over a board game night. Her ring had to be a minimum of 2 carats. I think the final ring had a custom band, a 2.5 carat stone and another half carat of tiny ones worked into the band design or something. Fast forward to a wedding involving a chartered helicopter landing at the reception to take them to JFK where it landed right at the gate to their flight to Tahiti to stay at Hotel Bora Bora for 3 weeks (this was pre-9/11 and my dad's an air traffic controller.....he loves telling the story of boarding the flight and the rest of the passengers being in awe, it's his favorite story about how important he thinks he is). Even young me knew this was all a giant red flag. I can't even begin to estimate how much he spent on all of this.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:I'm a chef, and the whole thing is that I cook for everyone. Potlucks are almost universally bad. Not a chef, but We've done a number of these in the past for my girlfriend's lab at school, and it is just easier for me to cook most of it and then "everyone bring a dessert or something". People are unreliable enough, you don't need the core of the meal hinging on their planning and time management skills (most of them just show up with a box of cookies they obviously bought at Publix on the way over). A bigger turkey costs almost nothing extra, and I'm buying everything already....this way I gain slightly less weight by having fewer leftovers. I don't mind. It's my favorite holiday because it was the only one my father just always gave to my mom without a fight and there was no drama (he was greedy and wanted the overtime hours, and then he can just duck in to his new wife's parents' house just long enough to eat and not have to help prepare or clean). I've helped cook for Thanksgiving with my mom since I was 9, so I'm the only one in the group with experience cooking such a large meal.....not technically complicated, but it's a lot to juggle for most home cooks if they haven't done it before. The only awkwardness is most people's kitchens aren't even close to well-equipped, so I end up having to bring a ton of poo poo with me. At least 5 gallon brewing buckets are great for transporting a turkey in a brine bag.

chitoryu12 posted:I think the actual canon explanation is that it was to accommodate Muggleborn students who were used to having toilets and not just dropping trou on the spot like an animal. Yeah that was canon. Same explanation for why the bathrooms aren't actually anywhere near the dormitory areas (oddly a pretty significant plot point) where they would make sense, they were added after the fact since plumbing came around a few centuries after the school. Before that, everyone was pretty much on the same page with just making GBS threads in your bedroom (chamber pots).

The Bloop posted:Purity testing everyone by their worst views or decisions, even when they are on balance very good people in the context and totality of their life such that there essentially ARE no "good" people in the world thereby essentially invalidating the entire premise. This has been a pet peeve of mine for years, which has only accelerated since Trump took office....and I argue is why he's in office in the first place. There is this endless infighting and attacking of those who are very clearly on the right side and working for good, which undermines the cause. One thing regressives are exceptionally good at, for all their other faults, is putting aside comparatively minor differences to present a unified front. I've drifted apart from some friends in recent years because their constant, performative, more-woke-than-thou posturing was frankly exhausting.

Ror posted:I will always love the video of Feynman getting irritated at the guy who just wants a simple answer on how magnets work This demonstrates my biggest problem with a lot of modern science disseminators: Feynman's answer here is so much more interesting and gives you so much more to think about than some pandering over-simplification. Outreach is wonderful and necessary, but it should provoke more questions, not provide simple answers. This is also the fundamental difference between mediocre teachers and outstanding ones. To do otherwise is counter-productive and leads to this problematic assumption that scientists should always be able to give simple answers and that most things are known and understood. Something I've always admired Feynman for throughout his career was his willingness to admit (and, indeed, put a strong emphasis on) how much we don't understand about the universe. You don't inspire people to become scientists by showing them the cool poo poo we can already do. Show them something weird and unsolved and walk away, and maybe they'll want to scratch that itch in their brain. Sorry, you put a Feynman video in front of a physicist and this is what you get.

HazCat posted:The real AUG was the friends we made along the way. Saddest part is this is official WotC poo poo, not some die-hard making a custom alter or something. They did a whole weaboo bait series of alternate art (only available on the Japanese printings, naturally) during War of the Spark. Foil copy of that will run you over $200 even though it rotated a few months ago and doesn't see sanctioned play anymore; that price is 100% driven by collectors who just want to look at it. HazCat posted:wait what thread are we in I had to ask myself this, but I guess it's inevitable given the AUG in the community for this game. My favorite will always be: The man in black is not the AUG, he was the hero we needed. Sadly WotC did not agree and suspended him for 2 years for "bullying" rather than take this as a wakeup call that this game has a major image problem that his photos highlighted. There's a whole gallery of rear end.

Question Mark Mound posted:I may be the idiot here, but does having Japanese artists make card art for some of the Japanese prints really count as “weeaboo bait” as opposed to “appealing to the local market”? That's fair. I honestly don't know how popular these are in Japan, I can only speak to who they seem to appeal to here who are shelling out hundreds for these things.

bandaid.friend posted:What kind of pornography is worth two thousand dollars a box? I assume a box is under fifteen kilos Maybe really old Playboys , a quick google shows the Marilyn Monroe issue goes for over 2 grand in ok condition, way more if it's pristine. But the "and videos" makes that seem unlikely...we're talking quantity, not quality. Not gonna lie, though, this hits too close to home. My rear end in a top hat father sold off my old video games and some old toys at a yard sale after I went to college without telling me. I only found out when I finally got a place off campus and figured I'd rescue that stuff from the garage over xmas break. He definitely sold some stuff that would be worth thousands today (even ignoring any sentimental value) for a couple bucks. EDIT: My wife pointed out they mention "sex toys" in the boxes and those aren't cheap, and some of the quotes from the parents hint that it was probably gay porn they overreacted to. Articles about this are reminiscent of the McDonald's hot coffee lawsuit stuff trying to make it sound frivolous and stupid, "lol someone sued over their mom throwing out their porn", but the plaintiff is in the right. You can find the court docs: https://ewscripps.brightspotcdn.com/61/d3/eb8906804d9d8611929a299c3e51/werking09915960267.pdf BaronVonVaderham has a new favorite as of 17:07 on Dec 18, 2020 |
