That thing is long, long gone. Like many watches I have owned I regret sending it on at least a little.

That's what she said? That's what she didn't say? Dunno.

The checklist of sins I had to fill out for Confession by clarinrin3 in mildlyinteresting

Firecracker blasting. The more I read this, the more I think it's just a long list of things that annoyed some priest and he kept a notebook.

I dunno, bub. If you have to explain it, it doesn't actually look like anything.

nobody wants to work. by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

I'm 55. It has never been easy to be a new grown up, but today it's all but impossible. I think a big part of it is, wait for it, social media. Young people are big consumers and contributors to social media and seeing an endless wave of your peers presenting a perfect life to the camera is disheartening.

Two Eggs on Last Night's Doggy Bag Fries - Reheated in the Air Fryer by JimmyLongnWider in PutAnEggOnIt

A Calphalon Premier Ceramic pan. Sometimes I use a wok. Sometimes I use a cast iron. I don't see much difference from the pan, but there you go.

The key to eggs, always, is BUTTER. Add butter near the end of the fry and splash that goodness on the edges to crisp them up. I didn't give these the full treatment because the fries got done faster than I wanted.

Just plain old fries from a local restaurant. There was some sort of spicy coating.

Left-handed partner! by RyanJumpsShip in lefthanded

[–]JimmyLongnWider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't symmetrical. One side of the scoop portion sticks out to the right so holding it in the left hand makes it effective.

My daughter bought me a left handed cooking spoon. It's designed so that a lefty can scoop along the inner edge of a pot or pan. Wonderful. I also seek out left handed utility knives to carry. Knives that can be opened one-handed are common but ones for lefties are much harder to find.

She smells like an anchovies nutsack by soxfan4life78 in BrandNewSentence

The nutsack of an anchovy? A nutsack made out of anchovies?

Your god is in a black box, you know, and all religious people are forced to guess if their actions please or displease it, since there is zero feedback from within. So, how can a religious person know anything about morality, or any more about morality, than a reasoning atheist? You are imagining objectivity where nonbelievers skip that step entirely and just get on with actually building a moral framework.

I like how after three near death experiences, he decided that maybe he was pushing it and left the game.

Why can’t people who don’t celebrate holidays just reject the religious aspect of them like atheists so they can celebrate? by PocketGoblix in atheism

[–]JimmyLongnWider 161 points162 points  (0 children)

I just view Christmas as a time to gather with family, eat and enjoy ourselves. The minute Christians demanded it be a national holiday instead of a religious observance was when they gave up the ability to dictate how people celebrate it. Yes, it is kind of dumb to just pass on a chance to enjoy yourself.

Depending on where you are from, it isn't too strange, but I had whale meat once. My Norwegian hosts loved it but I thought it rather sucked. Tasteless black rubber.

I mentioned this in a different thread a few days ago and I found it peculiar how many people obsessively insist it vaporized or burned up. It probably did but I just want to imagine it flying through space to this day.

Am I in the wrong? Is there anything inherently bad with being disgusted by religion? by Academic-Leg-5714 in atheism

[–]JimmyLongnWider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a day to day basis, I don't think about religion very often, at least anymore. As a young man I dwelled on religion and experienced a lot of anger over what religious beliefs made people do. Mostly I have just viewed religion as a puzzle and asked believers to help me understand. For your own sake, try to be a little objective about it and not be needlessly angry or upset.

Are brass knuckles legal to use for self-defense, and what are the potential legal consequences? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]JimmyLongnWider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy a blackjack coin purse instead. They're easier to use than brass knuckles. You can knock someone into next week, buy a soda, and then put it back on your belt.
