My cooking. I love to cook, be it simple meals or extravagant dishes, and everyone I know loves to eat my food - which is exactly why I'd never ever do it professionally. I really don't want to risk losing the enjoyment and relaxation I get from cooking. Being in the kitchen for an hour after i came home from work is my way to unwind after a long day.

Boost, hands down! It was my favourite for Reddit and is still just as amazing in it's Lemmy version.

German: "Dich soll der Blitz beim Scheißen treffen" - Lightning shall strike you while you're taking a shit

Best insult ever, imo.

The whole "the world will end in 2012" hysteria back then. It was my first glimpse into conspiracy theories, which I've spent a lot of time learning about ever since. It made me realize that nothing is ever too idiotic to not have an alarming number of people fall for it. It's why I wasn't surprised by the rise of the Q-movement or the resistance against the absolute bare minimum of COVID measures because of microchips in vaccines etc. All of that were just yet additional "of course people believe that shit"-moments for me.

Like Tommy Lee Jones said in Men in Black "A person is smart - people are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals."

I haven't been surprised by how stupid people can be in a long time.

I'm pretty sure you're in the wrong comment section, my friend.

Star Wars Episodes 7, 8 and 9 should've been done as properly planned and competently produced movies instead of the laughable excuse for a dumpster fire they are.

You forgot about ties. They're rare, but they happen, and in this scenario they work like the 0 in Roulette - they fuck over your nice and comfy 50/50 chance.

And as others already mentioned: I'm pretty sure that whole scheme wohl just be plain fraud.

You overlooked the most important question: who gives a fuck?

Yeah: mass transit (transit) into camps (housing) for "re-education" (education), with the chance to get forcefully married to a real Chinese man (social mobility), or end up having your organs harvested (healthcare)

The catholic church uses a cross, which could be understood as a reference back to when, according to their beliefs, Jesus christ died on a cross to relieve Christians of their sins, which would've been almost 2000 years ago by now. That's quite a throwback if you ask me.

Shit on the table

Golf is equivalent to licking an entire countryside so nobody else can use it. The only activity in human history that used more space for less people were the Apollo moon landings.

I love it when sequels DON'T include that the couple that fell in love towards the end of the first movie has now broken up again, just for the sake of some kind of forced tension between two character that'll just end up together all over again anyway.

On a side note, that's also one of the things I loved about Brooklyn 99: once Jake and Amy got together, it stayed that way. There wasn't this boring "they're together again, oops, now they're not" so many other otherwise good sitcoms used to death for their main cast (looking at you, Scrubs)

A lot of stuff. But that your point basically boils down to "not all of China is about genocide!" is more than enough to know that it's not worth my time arguing with you.

I never got the appeal of achievements in the first place. I see them more as friendly reminders than something actually worthwhile pursuing. Chasing them is only making things stressful and tedious, oftentimes annoying and grindy. That's kinda the exact opposite of any of the reasons I play video games for in the first place. If you want to use guides to get that 100% completion badge, do it. But if you ask me, your question means that you're letting other people tell you how to play your games on 2 different levels: first by the devs in telling you what "completing the game" has to mean for you and now, secondly, by strangers on the internet in their opinion about which ways to get there are appropriate. Play it the way you want! If you want to hunt achievements because it's fun to you, do it! And if you feel like referring to guides to get there, then do that, too!

Well there go my holiday plans...

My lactose intolerant ass would tend to disagree...

I'm pretty sure some of my T-shirts could win this if we don't take this whole "daily" I aspect too seriously. There are a few from my teenage years that are still in good shape and still fit, which I've had for literally more than half my life by now.

That "daily"-aspect makes it really hard though, since there are days when I don't even need my house keys. Lighbulbs die after some time, so they ain't it either. And would wardrobes count as "items"? I tried thinking about this question so hard for way longer than I probably should've now, and got to no unanimous conclusion so far. But in the end, it doesn't even matter, so I'll just go with: probably my glasses

In my opinion not enough people know Hard Candy from 2005

I'm getting married next week. Met her on Tinder. Sometimes they absolutely do work

Alway makes me think of this gem

Do you know the context behind there's no fucking context to genocide, it's just a fucking holocaust?

In what world is "It will last longer" an answer to "I can't afford that"? I doesn't matter how long something will last if people don't have the extra money to spend on something more expensive.

Absolutely! And I'm finally gonna marry her in less than 2 months.

~2000€ would be an absolute game changer for me.

Beat me to it

Easily the rival in the early Pokémon games. Being so annoyingly cocky and full of themselves just to get wiped by my party's first slot Pokémon every single time... Bruh, just get a grip on reality, would you?

Plenty! Apart from the obvious horror stuff like Berserk, worlds where humans face constant threats of extinction by herculean threats like Evangelion or AoT (on Paradis, at least), or "society is gone" endtime settings like Dr. Stone, one that comes to my mind especially is Psycho Pass. I'd rather not spend life in an Orwellian dystopia, thanks.

On a side note: I think the world of Dragon Ball wouldn't be half bad actually. Highly advanced technology, a diverse society (a dog for a king! Need I say more?) and the guarantee that an afterlife exists. Not to mention that on the off chance a villain kills a bunch of people again, they'll be wished back to life by the heroes once they've inevitably won.

Shitting in the toilet

Ah yes, another very "for the players"-move indeed

Depends. How many kids do you have?

actual indviduality

I can't even remember how many different shells i had for my Nokia 3310, but damn was it fun to change those around based on the mood of the day!

I got my wife a Swarovski ring back then because that's what she wanted. Looks just as nice as any diamond ring, unless you really inspect it closely. And they come in all kinds of colors.

Good bot 😊 👍

there's too much evidence to the contrary

You just have a way bigger sample size about your own idiocisities than you have for the people around you

I appear incredibly smart when I get to flash my surface level knowledge about a, quite frankly, impressively broad spectrum of topics. But I always feel dumb as hell when people who really know their stuff about some stuff talk about the stuff they know so much about.

FOSS software

I love free and open source software software, too! 😉

Actually, it's 中央情报, not Central Intelligence. Those are two completely different things.
