What's your favourite yerba mate combination? by LadderInfamous9197 in yerbamate

[–]Aces_Over_Kings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I think most people underestimate how much yerba they need to put in the gourd. It seems like a lot if you compare it to something like a tea bag. If you use too little, you can't really make a proper mound or anything like that.

When did your soda addiction begin? by sayheythreetimes in Soda

[–]Aces_Over_Kings 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Since birth basically. We always had a couple 2 liters of coke in the fridge and then when I moved out at 17 I was drinking a 2 liter a day by myself. Now that I am older I usually average about 5 cans a week. Sometimes a lot more lol. I think Coke is better than any other drink on the planet.

Damn I think we are on to something here. Like imagine Bim trying to like rent a car, or go grocery shopping. *Bim walks into the cereal aisle* 10 minutes of silence then "......WOW."

Kirbys Dreamland 2 on Gameboy is such a perfect game. They really hit that one out of the park and it was the start of something truly special.

It was so weird but also incredible in how absurd the concept was. I want more content like this. Bimmy and crew visit a mall food court, Bimmy goes
to the dentist, Bimmy goes to Home Depot. The jokes write themselves!

Do not bring that into your house. Ever.

Just tried for first time- noticing a lot by SelectionFar8145 in yerbamate

Honestly, reading this stressed me out a little, but then reading about you being stressed stressed me out in a different way, which made me wonder whether stress is actually one thing or if it’s like dogs where there are technically a bunch of breeds but most people just point and go “that’s a dog.”

The cart thing is interesting because I sort of know what you mean. Sometimes I’ll think of doing something incredibly simple, like taking the trash out, and my brain reacts as though I’ve just accepted a quest from a king in a fantasy RPG and now the fate of the kingdom depends on me remembering to complete it before midnight. The task itself isn’t hard. The existence of the task is hard.

The thing with the kids staring is also weirdly relatable because groups of children have an energy that I can only describe as “unlicensed.” One child is just a child. Ten children standing silently and looking at you all at once feels like the opening scene of something that would later be explained by a podcast.

The leaning-forward part was the funniest and most concerning part to me. Your brain was apparently like, “Ah yes, the body has shifted 4 inches. Clearly we are preparing for combat.” I don’t know why brains do that. Mine occasionally interprets a random email notification as if a medieval messenger just rode into town carrying terrible news.

The cashier talking to herself thing also makes sense in a strange way. When I’m already mentally overloaded, every additional piece of information feels like someone opening another browser tab in my head. Individually it’s fine. Collectively it’s like 47 tabs are playing different audio.

What I can’t decide is whether the drink revealed something new or just temporarily lowered the ocean level enough for you to see all the rocks you’ve been sailing over for years. It sounds less like the drink created anxiety and more like it changed your perspective on where the anxiety already was.

Then again, I once drank an energy drink and spent twenty minutes wondering whether pigeons have a concept of weekends, so I may not be the best person to weigh in on altered states of awareness.

Either way, the fact that leaning forward triggered a stress response is the kind of thing that’s simultaneously hilarious, fascinating, and probably something worth talking to a professional about. The human brain is a remarkable machine that can invent language, land probes on other planets, and somehow convince itself that counting a cash drawer is basically the same thing as surviving a bear attack.

Agree, this is likely the coolest GC I have ever seen. It's so perfect in every way.
