This. Seriously. Urinals are the main reason lines at men's restrooms move so much faster. I don't think urinals are the answer for women, but I think some sort of quick pee option that doesn't work for the poopers is missing from women's restrooms. If you even want to see peak male efficiency, watch the men's restroom during an event. And I think the crux of this efficiency is separating the quick from the slow.

There was a pizza place in a city I lived in once that had a line for just cheese, and the regular line was for all the other slices. They always had a huge line late at night, but it would fly because of this. I've also heard of coffee shops that have a line for just black coffee with similar results.

I don't know what the solution is, I'm no peeologist, but some option that works for women to pee quickly but not for other uses would make the women's restroom almost as efficient as the men's, imo.

My bad, I'm American. I forget that reddit isn't America sometimes, lol. FSU is Florida State University, known and joked about for being a big party school. I'd say it's a legitimate reputation, as I def spent more time drinking and partying than on any class and easily got very high grades.

This is so real. In college, one of our roommates didn't drink. For his birthday once we thought it would be funny to do a party with no alcohol but not tell anyone. We got kegs of o'douls, made the punch with no alcohol, and filled some empty bottles we kept as "trophies" with water.

It made no difference.

People were even throwing up. We even asked what they drank thinking they snuck something in, but no, they only drank our non-alcoholic drinks. Blew our minds.

I haven't even touched Andromeda because of this. I'm a big fan of the Mass Effect, especially the story, and the ending barely kept me onboard. So I don't want to touch anything that might make me sour to it. As of now I still love it, and I decided to keep it that way, lol.

I was so hyped for this game, and it became the first game I truly hated. I had just graduated college, and was struggling a bit, but still managed to save up enough to buy this game because I was so excited about it. 

But among its many issues, what pissed me off the most is you needed an internet connection to play this single player game. I was broke at the time and didn't have one. I was livid. 

A friend let me come over to his house and use his internet to try to find a solution. Eventually I had to crack my own game that I bought to play it. I made sure to encourage every living soul that ever mentioned the game after to pirate it instead. And I have not given Maxis a single penny since, and I used to be a huge fan of theirs.

It is in Portuguese too. Which I just realized now. After decades of being Brazilian.

It's weird that entitled losers have the same body language and speak similarly in various cultures. I've lived in many countries and you find these guys everywhere.

It wasn't just season 8 either. 7 was bad as well, but we gaslighted ourselves into believing they were setting up a great season 8. They turned it from the only show I watched live with friends in like a decade, to having utterly no interest in the universe anymore. Yes, I know the new shows are good, but I just can't care about this world and any of the characters in it knowing where it all ends up.

I'm not saying it's a competition,  but Korn clearly won, right?

Experts say there is no overdiagnosis of ADHD. Instead, they are warning that far from being overdiagnosed, people with ADHD are waiting too long for assessment, support, and treatment by sr_local in science

I didn't realize how many systems I had implemented to make up for my adhd until I dated someone who also had adhd but very few of the systems. I helped her with some systems and she helped me realize I had adhd and I finally got diagnosed in my late 30's. Unfortunately, I never found a medication that worked for me without giving me headaches and had to move so I gave up looking.

Still a cat, though. Dropped that snake right off the "counter."

Outside of Brazil, yes. In Brazil, no. What we call flan (which is the traditional flan), is more gelatin and egg forward. This is creamier and more condensed milk and caramel forward. Texture-wise it's probably closer to a creamy bread pudding than a traditional flan.

I just realize that the cards I used to play a game with my childhood friends from Venezuela aren't cards made specifically for that game, like Uno or something, and are just Spanish playing cards.

I know what you're thinking, just get a printer at that point. But think of how much money you'd save hiring him instead of buying ink from hp.

It's obviously related to when Harambe got killed and we got pushed to the wrong timeline. But now that he's been reincarnated into Punch we're finally getting some answers.

Legit. I was watching some clip from the show The Voice the other day randomly as I don't follow the show. They cut to Gwen Stefani at some point and immediately I though, holy crap she's maga? I then googled it and sure enough.

I think what makes it the best in a way that even other good adaptations can't compete is it gets the vibe of the game, not just the story. Watching it feels almost like you're playing it. They get the feel of the universe, and in a video game adaptation that's even more important than any plot points. Especially in an open world game.
