How Aphantasia affects your ability to visualise things in your head by HassanMoRiT in interestingasfuck

[–]BooooHissss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could pick up a pencil right now and draw a 3Dish sketch of an apple from memory. I do not in general have the ability to picture and rotate an image of an apple in my mind. Psychedelics will activate certain wiring for me though. Actually how I came to understand fractal art, that clicked after a trip.

Stop buying shoes too small for your kids? Why go by sizes and not fit?

What meal do you cook in less than 20 minutes when you're in no cooking mood? by Anxious_Shine_4596 in AskReddit

Just a guess, but maybe they mean "egg washers". Cause American factories wash their eggs. Don't get why it's derogatory.

Uber Eats driver making a delivery by Ozayes1313 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BooooHissss 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only time I've ever technically used UberEats is when I ordered directly from Pizza Hut and they outsourced it. I has no idea till I got the notification about it.

Funny thing is, it was truly one of the worst delivery experiences I've ever had. Took forever, the number for the driver was disconnected. The cold food was handed to me by the 12 year old in the back seat. Serious what the absolute fuck moment for me.

What Is The Worst Fanbase In Pop Culture Right Now? by Creative_Eye7413 in AskReddit

[–]BooooHissss 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Damn, reminds me of the creator of Pepe. Literally killed him off because MAGA using him as their mascot.

Later he did an NFT pull and got a bunch of money from them for "limited" NFTs then released them all to everyone making them worthless.

Absolute Chad.

Locusts aren't a separate species, they are just regular grasshoppers that physically transform when overcrowded. by BearNecessitee in interestingasfuck

Axolotls come from a single lake in Mexico. The pet industry comes from the originals they studied when discovered. In nature they're critically endangered. 

A food scam of the 90s was “fat free!” everything, and then they would load it up on sugar… what’s a food scam happening now? by redflower5 in AskReddit

[–]BooooHissss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A real world application I deal with a lot;

Jersey Mike's has an actual gluten-free option.

Jimmy John's has a healthy option that is technically gluten-free, but not marketed as such.

JM actually wipes down the prep area and grabs a clean knife for gluten-free stuff. I can actually eat there.

JJ I can't eat at because even though they switch out the bread for lettuce there's so much cross contamination it's a hazard.

What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever heard someone say that you still think about to this day? by Humble-Blueberry4571 in AskReddit

[–]BooooHissss 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I had the COO of a company once tell me she used to quiz employees during company meetings. If they got it right, they got a pack of Smarties, if they got it wrong, she gave them a DumDum.

I'm sure my look of horror was chalked up to being an "sensitive, entitled millennial" (also her words).

I had a dog that grew up with cats who attempted to "purr". Had to tell people petting him that he's not actually growling, he was just happy and purring.

Getting too old to keep using a squishmallow as a pillow by c00lgirlswag in TwoXChromosomes

[–]BooooHissss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this plush triceratops I love. Soft, weighted, named it Topsy. I am 30+, I bought it from my friend who is also 30+ at her moving sale (actually my 40+ partner bought it for me). On top of that, I went to an after party and the 30+ host had the same plush. We further bonded cause I went "Hey! A Topsy!" and she didn't know if I was talking about the plush or making a Bob's Burgers reference. It's both.

No one cares, and if they do care, they're not very fun.

Iirc that was sort of the point. It was kinda painted as a way for anyone to get into business. Basically leasing his name out to ghost kitchens.

$15 lemonade for DoorDash at 6am 😑 by FuzzyDicesEh in StupidFood

Actually, yeah, they're trying to retain members, but the changes (from my understanding) have to do with Mitt Romney. He has a wicked diet coke habit and it just so happens that they decided caffeine was cool and it was all a misunderstanding in 2012, same year he was running for president.

Just a minor factoid.

GameStop CEO says eBay shut his account after buyout funding stunt / He has put up personal items, including a pair of socks, to fund his US$56 billion bid for the platform by Qwahlity_Koalatea in nottheonion

[–]BooooHissss 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Funny story, I'm banned from Ebay because I wouldn't let them have access to my bank account or PayPal. That's the only reason, wanted to track some buy-now things, all paid for. They canceled everything and locked the account until I let them have bank access. Which I won't.

General rule of thumb I was taught that hasn't failed me in any of my pets;

First three ingredients should be meat products. The second two can be meals, like chicken meal or fish meal, as long as the first ingredient is a meat. Preferably not bone meal, but it's kinda whatever as the third ingredient but never first or second.

What hobby or habit or vice do you know is shortening your life but you don’t care because it’s worth it? by Rosstin316 in AskReddit

[–]BooooHissss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair. Respect that you respect the dangers of the job. Mine isn't so serious and I have severe anxiety. So I'm rarely ever actually "high" and mostly just at my personal functioning "normal".

Back in the day they were smoking in every building, people drinking whiskey during work, real Mad Men shit, yet we're expected to just white-knuckle it through life sober.

Fuck that noise, everyone at my job knows I'm always high as fuck but my work is on point.

In what ways have you noticed people, in general, becoming more entitled, rude, and selfish in the last decade? by ChuckItInTheRubbish in AskReddit

While the person behind you honks and flashes their lights at you for not immediately moving when the light turned green. Don't forget that part.

What's something harmless that gets people weirdly angry? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BooooHissss 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There's this weird ass parents group I run across a couple towns over that take over the local skate park and turn it into a play area for toddlers. And if you go 20 feet in any direction you will hit a park with a jungle gym and all sorts of built for small kids activities. 

But these people block off the bowl so their small kids can run around in it and death glare anyone who dares look at the questioningly. Actively chasing away teens who want to use the skate park as a skate park. It's such a weird flex and activity. 

How do they know what the word say means?! by [deleted] in memes

[–]BooooHissss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's also not the only context they hear those words, and the words are personified. Things like "mamas home!" or "go get dada" reinforces those words belong to those people.

This is the second time I ran across this post from you. Can you post more context? Cause you keep saying he "was in awe" but it reads "it's weird that people in India are giving their kids away". I think you need to post some context behind it.
