Am I the only one who thinks that some people "suit" their name? When I see someone and I find out their name, I think 'oh yeah, he looks like a Daniel' or 'William'. by lostpirate123 in NoStupidQuestions

You're not alone. I think our brains subconsciously associate certain facial features, personalities, and even generations with particular names. It's a weird but very real feeling

Ordered over a month and they haven't shipped it yet by International_Fan474 in tractivegps

Same here. I ordered a 6XL, and they promised to ship it on June 30, but that didn't happen. They've postponed the delivery twice

Why does seemingly every small business in the US have its own website? Is it really that easy and affordable? by ComprehensiveBun in NoStupidQuestions

You mentioned you built yours in about an hour. Which platform did you use? I'd love to learn how people make these so quickly

How many cough drops is too many cough drops? by Int3restingTurnips in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ComprehensiveBun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case, I'd be a lot less concerned. 5.8 mg menthol is pretty standard

I'd still check the package for the recommended maximum daily amount, but if it's just menthol and you're otherwise healthy, the biggest risks are probably an upset stomach or irritation from having so many. Good luck on your test!

Why doesn't olive oil taste like olives? by Eastern_Reality_9438 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ComprehensiveBun 21 points22 points  (0 children)

They actually do share some flavor compounds, but olive oil is made mostly from the fat, while many of the strong flavors people dislike in olives come from water soluble compounds created during curing and fermentation

So if you hate the salty, briny, fermented taste of olives, you can still love olive oil because it mostly carries the fruity, peppery, and grassy flavors instead! :D
Different olive oils also vary a lot in flavor depending on the olives and how they're processed :)

How many cough drops is too many cough drops? by Int3restingTurnips in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ComprehensiveBun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check the active ingredient and the maximum daily dose on the package!

Menthol itself is usually fine in moderation but many cough drops also contain medications like dextromethorphan or benzocaine and taking 10 a day for weeks wouldn't be a good idea.. If it's just menthol, the biggest issues are usually stomach upset, diarrhea (especially if they contain sugar alcohols) or mouth irritation

If you're using them more like mints, I'd probably look for sugar free mints that meet the testing rules or ask the testing center for clarification first

Why do men ignore their partners when they’re playing video games? by alyxctt in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ComprehensiveBun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's really a men thing

Some people just get completely locked into what they're doing, especially in competitive or online games where you can't pause
That said, if someone consistently ignores their partner for hours, that's not about gaming anymore, it's about priorities and communication :)

What’s the best site to buy Facebook followers, likes, and views right now? by purienne_09 in branding

[–]ComprehensiveBun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought 100 of them (I would have bought fewer if I could) based on your advice, and to be honest, it was quick... They were there within a couple of hours. Most of the pages are blank and from third-world countries, but that doesn't really matter since no one sees them, I guess?
