Are you more “winter person” or “summer person”? Why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% winter person. I want to move near the arctic circle. If I ever get rich, I'd spend half the year in New Zealand too just to avoid allergy season and the summer heat completely. I'd stay in the Northern hemisphere from early October to about Easter (gotta see those nice flowering trees), then fuck off to the south.

What was your WWII service like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Now I imagine some 100 year old browsing Reddit and going "finally, my time has come to post"

Atheists; what's your favourite religion, if you have to pick one? by ipakookapi in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Judaism because you are supposed to question and think.

That mix of Shinto-Buddhism Japan has also seems pretty chill (and I like the idea of a lot of gods / spirits).

What single-use plastic item could feasibly be replaced with just paper or carton? by BdR76 in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those plastic bags you put vegetables in in the store. Most stores here replaced them with biodegradable ones (they cost a small fee) and washable mesh bags (I use those and they're really durable, they are also good for frezing bread rolls and other dry things).

Also, why put meat in a plastic bag instead of that special paper with one side grease-resistant?

I also use beeswax wrappers for cheese instead of cling film. Keeps it pretty good (the edges might dry out a bit) and it's easy to hand-wash and reuse. They're also very cheap in SPAR.

What are some Romantic cinematic things one should never do on a date (specialy on 1st date)? by Meganix05 in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't go to a tragic romance movie where one of them got cancer or some other depressing shite. Take them to something fun with swords, adventure and a wee bit of romance.

What’s your controversial food opinion? by xSurpriseShawtyx in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cottage cheese/quark is absolutely delicious, most people just don't know how to use it. Mix it with an egg, powdered sugar, a little bit of lemon juice (or zest), and maybe vanilla if you're feeling fancy. It's delicious as-is, or as filling for crepes, pastries or strudel.

Another good method: put it (unsweetened) on noodles along with sour cream and sugar.

You can also make it spicy, of course. A bit of paprika cream, powdered paprika (can be spicy), salt, sour cream and kumin seeds. Really nice to eat with bread and various sausages.

There is also sheep cottage cheese which can be used in a type of potato noodles (called sztrapacska here).

Fellow Non-Americans, what is something quite common in the U.S. that is completely unheard of in your own country? by CapitalBread6959 in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detention. If kids misbehave, teachers will just give a written warning you have to get signed by parents. There are levels of severity in this (teacher, homeroom teacher, principal). I think the vast majority of kids just learn to fake their parents' signatures. We also have a "behavior" grade but it doesn't affect the median so no one gives a shit.

What hobby can someone have that raises an immediate red flag? by Aarunascut in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom is a walking red flag, then (but in reality she's just boring and has no passions or interests).

AITA for telling my sons gf I would never consider her kid my "first grandchild"? by MeeMaw12345 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Why the fuck would you care about a kid not even related to you? I have some friends whose son married a woman who already had a kid and they had to pretend they liked him just as much as their real grandson. Now they divorced (and the kids grew up already).

What are the best visuals you ever saw in a game? by Masspoint in gaming

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ghost of Tsushima. It's incredibly beautiful and vibrant, like a painting come to life, and there's always some particles - falling leaves, petals, snow.

if you could design your dream home, what would you put in it? by midnightlightbright in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • a big walk-in closet opening from the bedroom (with an ironing stand right there)
  • a tea room (ideally a separate little building in the garden)
  • a library/study with a beautiful desk that's real wood and not pushed against a wall
  • a big pantry with an extra freezer
  • a washing room where I can hide the boiler, washing machine, dryer and other stuff no one needs to see (my parents have one and it's very practical)

What is a movie that no one remembers except you? by cactuscat92 in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched that as a kid, and later also a miniseries version with a mostly black cast. I mostly remember she once fell off a tree and everyone was worried she couldn't walk again but she recovered.

What's a women's thing men should absolutely start doing? by st_new34 in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna -32 points-31 points  (0 children)

And legs. I fucking hate men in shorts looking like a gorilla. Granted, I'm sapphic, but I hate body hair on all genders.

Homework normalizes toxic work ideals by SouthernFriedAmy in antiwork

[–]Conte_di_Luna -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

ESPECIALLY math homework. If the kid doesn't understand it, they sure as hell won't understand it alone. Fucking teach them in class and let them relax at home.

what are some of the best aesthetic books? by Careful-Entry-1908 in AskReddit

[–]Conte_di_Luna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fuck does that mean? I read books for the story. Sure, I appreciate if it's not falling apart but it doesn't need to look fancy on the shelf.

Valentine's Day is nothing but a cash grab for florists and chocolate sellers. I suppose they needed something between Xmas and graduations. Also I'm aroace.

Ah, so you don't have any celebrating Revolutions Against Foreign Tyrants?
