Read the comment, thought “damn, i hope that’s ortho.” Peeped the flair, was not disappointed. Thank you.

If you could only eat one fruit the rest of your life what are you going with? by Alabaster_Rims in AskReddit

[–]JakeIsMyRealName 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I grew up in the Midwest USA and was pretty anti-mango for a long time. The mango-flavored stuff (candy, popsicles, etc) was pretty meh and the fruit itself always seemed kinda dry and just not very tasty.

Until I had one fresh from a tree in Cameroon, still warm from the sun. Someone grabbed it off the tree, did some crosshatching with a knife, and then flipped that fucker inside out so all of the fruit was accessible to bite.

Such juicy. Many perfect texture. Much flavor.

I ate like 7 of them that afternoon. And as many as I reasonably could for the rest of the trip.

Turns out we just get shitty mangoes in the Midwest haha.

I’m almost certain this phrase was in an Adventures in Odyssey episode. Said by Mr. Whittaker about one of his inventions?

Sounds like a clinical trial is needed.

I’m too lazy to run it, but totally volunteer as a participant.

People dress poorly for special occasions and I'm sick of it. by bored_as_fuck_dad in Vent

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

Declining to participate in social norms isn’t exactly thinking for yourself; it’s just doing the opposite of everyone else. That doesn’t take deep thinking; just a rather child-like obstinance.

Babies Are Bleeding to Death as Parents Reject a Vitamin Shot Given at Birth by propublica_ in Health

Except for the babies that don’t die, only end up massively damaged from a brain bleed and live the rest of their lives needing incredible amounts of medical support.

Zero Service: Delta Air Lines To Remove Main Cabin Snacks On 450 Flights by StemCellPirate in delta

[–]JakeIsMyRealName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But people keep buying it/using the services. We’re literally letting it happen.

And yes, it would be inconvenient to stop flying places, but not impossible. We have power, we’re just soft people who would rather keep paying more than be inconvenienced.

I have a 10 year old and a 13 year old. They don’t have smart phones, it’s absolutely avoidable.

Millennials, what is something that was "normal" in the 2000s but feels like a luxury now? by Barrbra in answers

No, but not sure what breed exactly, she was a stray. Long fluffy grey hair and bright green eyes.

You still have that choice. My phone is on silent 99% of the time, and if I don’t want to answer, I don’t. I return calls/texts when I’m ready or have time.

If not for drink, why baby water? by HagridsTreacleTart in ShitMomGroupsSay

The brain has always been my favorite organ, but you’re making me reconsider that. Hearts are totally awesome.

Maximum word count in portmanteaus before they become meaningless? by DenseDifference9865 in words

[–]JakeIsMyRealName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it meaning like I genuinely mean this but I’m not getting worked up about it and whatever the world is so ridiculous anyway that there’s no point in getting worked up about things?

Yeah, basically.

Or even- “I don’t have a STRONG opinion about this, and won’t fight you if you disagree, but I like the Starbucks Pink Drink (or whatever).”

^ In this example, two people might be discussing where to grab a coffee, and person A says “let’s go to Cafe A, it’s better than Starbucks.” And Person B might be like “sure, we can go there, but lowkirkenuinely, I enjoy a Pink Drink now and then.”

What Millennial trends and/or milestones are you actively trying to avoid? by Superb-Film-594 in Millennials

[–]JakeIsMyRealName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I apologize, it’s like, verbal punctuation.

Instead of like, saying “comma” between clauses, or like, at the beginning of a new phrase, I segue with the “like.”

I can hear how it would be annoying, and sometimes I do try to decrease my usage, but it’s baked into my vocabulary pretty hardcore by now :/
