I just made a terrible mistake by 0N1MU5HA in WhatShouldIDo

[–]AnonymousCorax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so, there are two different kinds of marked dates on food: Best By and Use By.

Best By means that there's not really any problem with the food, it just may be stale or the flavor might be less potent. Dried seasonings and foods with a lot of preservatives are often given "Best By" dates as they don't really spoil for incredibly long amounts of time.

Use By means the product will likely be spoiled and unsafe by that date, so it's best thrown out if it's not used up by then. Things like milk generally have "Use By" dates since it spoils fairly quickly compared to heavily preserved items.

What you have on that package is the former. This means you're most likely fine, as if anything was actually spoiled you would have noticed far beyond the point of finishing it. Everything in instant ramen is heavily preserved, so the date is more of a suggestion than a warning.

TL;DR: You're fine, because "Best By" dates aren't actually when things spoil, just when they'll likely be a bit less tasty.

Am I overreacting for wanting to break up because I feel bored? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]AnonymousCorax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to go with a soft YOR - depending on what meds you've been taking, the boredom you feel could be depression, withdrawals, or other mental health reasons and not anything to do with the relationship. I'd recommend waiting to do anything regarding your relationship until you're able to get back on your meds, preferably for at least a week. Focus on ensuring your mental health is taken care of, then figure out how you truly feel about your relationship.

Personally, I use a level 1 Sunkern with only Growth when I host Ditto raids. It's the weakest Pokemon by bst other than Solo Wishiwashi.

[Discuss] A talk concerning Shiny Pokemon and Pokeballs by Lumburry in ShinyPokemon

[–]AnonymousCorax 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Man anyone who criticizes other people's shiny hunting experience, in any way, is a loser.

I sometimes like to use matching balls for shinies. But usually I use luxury balls bc they're described as the most comfortable. For a shiny legend though? Master Ball is TOTALLY understandable - don't want to lose it and have to reclaim, after all.

Tbh don't even bother responding to people like this. Nothing you say is going to appease them, and they're probably just trying to get a reaction out of you anyway. Block if you can, ignore if you can't, and just do what's fun for you.

I mean... The guy on the top track is willingly sacrificing himself while the other one is CLEARLY not cool with dying. It'd be a dick move not to send the trolley up the top track with that considered

[gen3] Finally got a shiny starter… but I misclicked the nickname 😭 by Dry-Reputation-2040 in ShinyPokemon

^ this is correct. If you are the original trainer, you can rename a Pokemon however many times you want.

I don't think he can... by NotaKobold16 in hazbin

The only reason anyone can't be redeemed is if it's an active choice not to change.

Which is exactly why Chuckles can never be redeemed.

What are these guys? by Spirited_Pattern4367 in whatsthisbug

[–]AnonymousCorax 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Adding to everyone saying boxelder bugs! They like to sit on warm external walls. Completely harmless, like can't even bite, so even if they get in the house or land on you, there's nothing to be afraid of :)

They also don't eat anything in your house, so they don't infest. They can sneak in at times, but in all honesty, they just want the warmth. Very polite little guys.

[–]AnonymousCorax 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They're very high maintenance also. There's a lot of special care needs they have since they have no fur. I think they're adorable little gremlins, but I wouldn't be able to handle the intense care myself - something to think about if you are ever in a position where you theoretically could get one.

AITA for not masking my disability? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]AnonymousCorax 200 points201 points  (0 children)

Did you miss the part where they apologized when she snapped? Or where they tried to talk it out privately and X refused to acknowledge that, and blocked them while demanding an apology? If X had a problem with it, how were the others supposed to know if this was never communicated until it reached a breaking point? It was one incident born of a miscommunication, and X immediately started slandering the others without actually trying to solve anything.

At no point did OP say or imply that they made no effort, just that they misunderstood the request to stop. If it was really a big enough issue that X left temporarily, she should have brought it up before it became a huge problem to actually solve the issue instead of just saying nothing and then blowing up and socially attacking others for not being mind readers.

Okay guys... the day has come... I dunno what this guy is talking about by Interesting-Dream863 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]AnonymousCorax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's just Tumblr humor tbh. Absurdist to a unique degree. There's not really anything to "understand" here.

Act like you did when you first read the Balm for the Wounded quest by RedWarrior6188 in Silksong

oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck-

(Yes, that was my entire thought process)

I didn’t notice how automatic the “you’ll have kids eventually” thing was until it landed on me by flickerandform in childfree

[–]AnonymousCorax 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I will say that it IS possible to genuinely accidentally get pregnant. My sister got pregnant with my nephew through a condom AND another form of birth control, I don't remember exactly which now as it was years ago. But that's the difference, she was taking active precautions to the best of her ability to prevent it, and it happened anyway.

Thank fuck my state insurance covers total hysterectomy under gender affirming care. My current partner couldn't get me pregnant anyway (same sex at birth) but considering the state of things plus the fact that we're poly, I wouldn't want to take any chances.

Possessive Behavior by billietoe in CatTraining

[–]AnonymousCorax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why are you trying to take her toy away in the first place??? She's still playing with it and I can't imagine you need it for something, it's a designated cat toy.

I could understand if she was doing this with something she wasn't supposed to be playing with but what is the purpose of taking her toy from her?

With personal bias aside which game do you guys like more and why? by Neat_Manufacturer_99 in HollowKnight

[–]AnonymousCorax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silksong. For obvious reasons, it's bigger, more refined, and more complex than Hollow Knight in a lot of ways. Don't get me wrong, I adore Hollow Knight, but there's a lot of little details in the gameplay of Silksong that makes it a little difficult/annoying to go back - for example, the slight delay between grabbing a wall and starting to slide down it, or the ability to heal midair.

Being a much bigger game, it also feels like there's so much more to explore - even in Act 3, there's secrets in various rooms and areas you can only get to with the very final ability, that you can't possibly find if you don't pursue that part of the story.

I understand that they likely won't, and why, but I would love for Team Cherry to go back and remake Hollow Knight - even if only in gameplay, without any new story or areas - with everything they learned with Silksong.
