Mine‘s getting so accustomed to cold showers that I a) absolutely do not mind cold water for swimming etc. anymore and b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore. They just weren’t nice at all.
When baking, I take the right amount of butter with 1g of accuracy.
The more butter you add the righter it becomes.
My hand has an accuracy of about 0.1-0.2g accuracy. Well, with weed. I haven’t measured how accurate it is with spices or salt or sugar because I never measure those.
Does it work only with butter?
I‘ve got this in a less accurate but more versatile way: I can do this ±50gr of almost anything
With flour and sugar only because I know how much fits on a spoon. With butter it’s just magic.
Baking or “baking”?
Actual baking with an oven.
I’m pretty good at… just about everything. With some rare exceptions, just about every new thing I try, I pick up really quickly, and am pretty good at it. Ice skating, volleyball, stand-up comedy, acting, dancing, singing, gymnastics, hockey, rugby, capoeira, woodworking, drawing, painting, sculpture, chemist, surgery, gardening, swimming/diving… Just a whole bunch of random stuff that I’ve had the opportunity to try and… yeah, I’m pretty good at 'em.
I’ve often thought about being the subject of some sort of “Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe” style show except they challenge me with new tasks/activities to see if they can find something I legitimately suck at.
That’s called being a Dilettante. Jack of all trades, master of none.
No offence intended, but that’s hardly uncommon enough to be show-worthy.
samesies.
I picked up some books on genetic sequencing and used it to improve my teleportation machine.
I’m about to test it myself in about an hour.
🤞Hope nothing goes wrong. I’ll come back later if anything new happens.
edit: my experiment was a failure… there was a contamination in the chamber and now I fear for the worst. I might be able to reverse this mistake, but I’m so hungry right now.
b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore.
Grew up without hot running water and I can relate. It’s only a problem in some hotels really, where the showers don’t get cold enough.
My weird flex would be being so accustomed to command line that I don’t know how to use well, and get frustrated by, GUI applications.
Setting environment variables in windows annoys me irrationally.
That is definitely a skill issue
idk, in linux its just adding a line to my bashrc or running a command, but on windows its opening settings, going into a specific page, pressing the advanced button, pressing the next advanced button and then choosing edit system environment variables.
Open Powershell
$env:MyVariable = “HelloWorld”
Done
Someone was probably around for Unix.
I haven’t seen any Star Wars movie.
Huh. That is weird but it shouldn’t be.
the original 3 are good (a new hope/empire/return of the jedi) and the rest are bullshit
yeah, that’s what I heard, too.
funny thing is that I haven’t seen any of them, still know everything about it, thanks to 9gag through osmosis.
for a long time, this is why I decided not to watch any of thr movies, as I never would be able to experience it as first time.
but now, since I’m a bit older I know that’s stupid, it’s just some movie so I’ll watch those eventually with gf.
The thing I like about the original Star Wars trilogy is not that they were great stories, but just that they had really, really good pacing. The characters and scenarios were introduced at just the right rate so that when the big action scenes came around you really cared about them, especially in the first one. That’s also where the later films fell down. I don’t consider myself a huge Star Wars fan, but I would say it’s worth appreciating for the art of it even if you already know the stories.
That’s fine, but don’t make it a personality trait.
Watch the first 6 and then stop
I enjoyed 7 when it first released. The visual style in the first 10 minutes was appealing and I figured we were retreading the same notes for nostalgia before going on a different plot with Finn. Nope, just poorly written rehashed story lines with nonsense plot devices. So much potential thrown away.
I go to bed at 9pm everyday, and get 8hrs+ of sleep.
I need this so much
Me too, but I’m too lazy to go to bed. I rather procrastinate till late night, not wanting the day (and my onyl me time) to end. So i go sleep late and wake up grumpy every single day. Yay!
Hello from 2:23 am. I resent you so hard right now.
Alright tone down the bragging, we get it , you’re “well balanced” or whatever
Fucking superpower right there, straight out of a videogame
With that reduced amount of “me time” (he/she time?) I bet OP wouldn’t understand videogame references /s
I’m double jointed.
I can give up almost anything save for breathing, eating, and my dogs.
Save them for lunch later, smort
I’ve actively moderated the Zootopia subreddit almost since its inception. We did a lot of cool stuff but, uh, moderating a subreddit is not the kind of thing you brag about. Anyway, i quit this year.
Also i have every single r/place-related medal because i helped organize artworks. That’s not any better is it?
Moderation is still a lot of thankless work. I think it’s pretty cool as long as you enjoyed doing it and weren’t shackled to it. :)
Not here, anyway
How much furry porn did you have to see in all these years?
Exactly the first question popping into my mind
Genuinely once or twice in 8 years. People knew the rules.
But the rules around NSFW content were a point of contention, i placed the bar a lot lower than most people in the community would have it. To the point that there was huge controversy a couple times, and i realized that they saw me more as a cop than a janitor. People really wanted to see rabbit hole
Zootopia was fun, but I can’t imagine anyone being a hardcore fan and not being a furry. So I can imagine.
There was a mix actually, a lot of users would say they weren’t furries. I can’t guess the proportion
To me, the fact that r/zootopia was the biggest Disney movie subreddit and never stopped growing is entirely due to it having an umbilical cord to the furry fandom. You can also say that the Zootopia fandom was a good place for normies that were too straight to be furries, and you can say that the Zootopia fandom was step 1 of the pipeline that leads to owning a fursuit and a canine butt plug. All three were probably true.
I just realized i typed this whole comment in past tense, but uh, the Zootopia fandom still exists. And r/zootopia still exists. I don’t know i don’t have object permanence
Quite the opposite. I am so used to burn away my migraines, i can last in 60 degrees hot water for a (short) while.
That’s nothing! I can last in 100C water, for a (very short) while
I have a stomache of steel. Nothing will pass my digestive tract alive or intact. I never had any kind of stomache trouble and I can not puke. I ate every dish in south-east-asia that landet in front of me, even from some dirty streetfood shack in the middle of the burmese jungle. Most of the stuff would have killed the average middle european slob. Not me.
It even goes so far that I cannot use edibles. Which is funny, because all the growmies make fun of me now.
I have a pretty ironclad stomach, but not as strong as yours. I’ve been with my wife for 13 years and she’s witnessed the horror that is me puking twice. And the first time came 4 years ago. My friends say it sounds like I’m “calling the dinosaurs” and it is very traumatic for me.
Edit: I forgot my point. I’m jealous.
The dog-barf…
This is genuinely so cool.
I can not puke
No gag reflex you say? 😇
Street food is often the safest anyhow, its the hotels and water you have to worry about
Omg I love trippy ambient electronic. PM me if you want. I have so many suggestions and would love to get some from you too.
After over half a century of action, a lot of it in “extreme sports”, and countless injuries, I have yet to break a bone.
Congrats! Must be all the malk.
We don’t have any malk, but I can get you some MILK
Good god, I have to rewatch that right now. Thanks, I’m not the only one thinking of that video!
Now with vitamin R!
I used to drive a Ford Flex. I was frequently assured of its weirdness.
Start a limo service in Vegas with a fleet for the novelty.
call it Flex Appeal
bro marketing like ‘Flex on your whole crew!’
I can drive as long as possible without touching my phone.
Isn’t this like… idk… normal intelligent human behavior?
haha intelligent and normal are usually two different categories of drivers
I have actually been held at gunpoint many times in a dictatorship, by the leftists dictator forces.
I have actually gone through famine for years caused by leftists, and survived to tell the tale.
I also have survived a leftist dictatorship and escaped successfully from one
Weird flex but okay
I’m pretty sure you use the word leftist wrong
At some level extreme governments are the same, Left or Right. At that point the polarity of the government doesn’t really matter to anyone except the people looking to escape it. They’re authoritarian dictatorships, oligarchies, kleptocracies, whatever…they just pay lip service to whatever form of government they claim to run “for the people” and hoard wealth and power to the top. So it may be a “leftist” government on the surface, but it’s just an authoritarian one in all the points that matter.
Well yeah, but as we recognise that DPRK isn’t a democratic republic, we can recognise that authoritarian cleptocracy remains that even if they call themselves socialists. It’s the actions thqt matter
They’re from Chile, it’s actually possible!
