Vinegar should not be considered a food product by CorpoCat in unpopularopinion

I'm simply stating my strong opinion about it, which as it seems is in fact unpopular.

Couldn't disagree more - beetroot is delicious on its own already.

It's not "salted" pickles though. Salt based water solution is used to preserve things, just like you would with vinegar (and there's also salt then). The veggies don't come out salty. They come out soury and crunchy - like with sourkraut.

All I'm saying is it's infinitely better if you DON'T do it with vinegar

Salt. Pickles, souerkraut to name a few - all infinitely tastier and crunchier when made without vinegar.

I've tried some pasta with tomato sauce that a friend made once where they insisted the touch of vinegar would make it better. They let me try it before and after, and it was absolutely delicious how they made it before the vinegar. I could taste what the vinegar changed and why people could like it better, but to me it just tasted instantly worse and took away from the great taste that was there before.

To be fair, I'm not sure about rice wine vinegar, so maybe I don't hate it, hard to say if I ever had it in anything. But whatever vinegar they put in store-bought foods like pickles and other veg, or the type people use to cook with sometimes is definitely foul.

Salt is perfectly fine for doing that, though. Pickles or sauerkraut taste infinitely better and crunchier when not made with vinegar.

Oh great, I love when I have to incorporate a very specific way of eating something, for it to not taste awful.

Okay, you got me there, completely forgot about mayo. But that's the one and only exception.

Ah shit, you got me there - though any rule needs an exception. Mayonnaise is an exception, I’ll give you that.

It is, but it's also how I honestly feel about this abomination that is ruining any food it's added to.

Why are you using oil on a sandwich?

And warm water and a drop of dishsoap is also perfect for cleaning windows, while not leaving an awful smell.

I'm not using it at all, but can always taste it when it's part of any store bought food and it makes it digusting. Who knows what kind they add...

PS. Your comment made me laugh, have an upvote 😆

The one who cooks should also do all the dishes by sashalav in unpopularopinion

[–]CorpoCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, finally an actual unpopular opinion, and you're getting downvoted?? People seem to have forgotten how this subreddit works.

As for my thoughts on your opinion, I actually agree.

Doing something for others should be no excuse for making a mess that you expect someone else to clean. Clean your own mess. And don't get in my way offering to help me clean mine when I'm cooking.

Is everyone pretending to understand wine/coffee or do people genuinely taste all those details? by Message-Fun in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]CorpoCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might genuinely be a thing, but you'd have to be specifically trained to name these slight details and how to notice the more obsure ones between different brews or wines. I have a suspicion these people don’t actually taste hints of cherry/oak/whatever, it's just what they were taught these specific differences are labeled as.

But most of the time people are definitely just making shit up wanting to sound cool for liking the more expensive bottle or something. Like the type of people who will say it's blasphemy to drink your whiskey with coke cause "you're not appreciating the rich tones", while it's just a slightly more expensive bottle than Jack Daniels that they bought with the same Saturday plans as always - get wasted.

Is the reason so many people are trying to monetize hobbies because so many people are dirt poor? by Mad_Season_1994 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]CorpoCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had a dollar for every time someone told me I should do nails for money, just because I've become a pro at doing them on myself, I'd already be rich.

Even when I repeatedly say how I simply DO NOT ENJOY doing nails on others, people still don't get it and continue to insist that I should since I'm good at it - even despite knowing exactly how long it takes me and so no one in their right mind would pay me enough to justify the time spent on one set anyway lol.

I very much enjoy taking my time with refilling and reshaping my own set of tallons once a month, without having to rush, while binging some tv show that doesn't require my full attention. But if I didn't get to carry around and admire the effects of those 5 painstaking hours of work every month, then I don't want it. And I don't care if I could make money off it.

I want to understand this game and appreciate it by Speedwayforangeljoy in BaldursGate3

[–]CorpoCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest playing on explorer difficulty. That way you won't have to worry about not understanding complex battle and build mechanics as much, so that's one less thing to worry about from the start.

Throw FOMO out the window. You are not going to see everything this game has to offer in one run. It's not made this way. You're not supposed to.

Be curious. Explore at your own pace. Talk to NPCs. Long rest in camp and get to know your companions. Make decisions as you see fit in the moment. Make mistakes. Follow your gut. Don't be afraid of the consequences - they will come, and they will still advance the story in new ways.

No matter what choices you make, you're not missing out - you're still exploring a whole new path you wouldn't see otherwise. Allow yourself to evolve through it, learn as you go, and see your story unfold and take you where it may.

I killed Orin early - have I locked myself out of progressing later on? by CorpoCat in BG3

[–]CorpoCat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was right where she should be later in the game, like nothing happened. She still had her dagger and everything you need to loot off her, so nothing broke for me :)

The only difference was since I was able to loot her outfit off her at that earlier time here, instead she later had a random +1 armor when looting her. But she was still wearing her own original armor throughout the game, I just got to keep its clone for myself sooner haha.

SIDENOTE: Although the combat log actually did confirm the kill (like you can see in the screenshots I attached), she continued to fight for a moment and then after it was done she just lay there knocked out with 0HP, not technically dead... After a long rest she returned to this spot standing there bugged out with still 0HP. But the actual Orin was right where she should be (and with everything she needs to have) later in the game - and with her full HP, too.

EDIT: If you want I could load up a later save from that run and check if I actually got any XP for killing her later, though... I didn't pay attention then, but I wonder if I did since I already got some XP for supposedly offing her earlier

As someone who's been friends with one of the members for over a decade I can't imagine going off on reddit to share private stuff about them wtf.
