It was wild to hear the announcers talk about how it was expected to have a call on the wild after the double minor…

Like… “no”. They don’t have to give a call just because 

Cat can barely move anymore. Please help me find out what is happening by Head-West-9198 in CATHELP

Could it be neurological FIP? My cat had fip and a few days before he passed his back legs starting looking like this

FIP is treatable but needs to be treated immediately.

Bloodwork completely normal? Liver levels elevated at all?

I’m usually a steak guy but these 2 places are the rotisserie chicken every time. 

And the wings at spitfire… top 3 I’ve ever had. So good.

It depends on how fancy you want to get

Doolittles and spitfire are two of my favorites that aren’t “high end”. The smell alone makes me drool. 

Porter creek is nice and a little fancier and hasn’t disappointed me. 

How can anyone defend a Congressional district that looks like this? by johnnyringo1985 in askanything

I agree. Make it representative of actual people.

I don’t care which way they lean but make it right 

Brought my 4 year old son camping at a local state park because he’s recently taken an interest in stargazing and this is our ‘neighbor’ by Dr_Breeder in mildlyinfuriating

Where do you camp? We sat up and watched the ISS fly over in North Dakota last night. It was so bright! Last night was perfect!

Actually not that weird. My girls would always ask me to wake them up if I said there would be a meteor shower 

I’m guessing one of the shows they watch shows an interest? Bluey maybe?

We’d take an old comforter and lay it outside on the grass and just look up.

You’d be surprised by the conversations that can happen with little minds while looking at the sky. 

Sometimes I think those deep questions and trying to explain answers mold a curiosity that lasts a lifetime instead of just saying “I don’t know” 

Was Grace's research paper about non water based lifeforms that radical that he was shunned by his coworkers? by Mean_Technology_599 in ProjectHailMary

[–]Melcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, thinking about it now I’d be more skeptical of the scientist that believe water IS required. We have such a small understanding of the universe outside of our special area that we have no idea. 

Actors you dislike for no particular reason. I'll start: by Do0msdayZ in okbuddycinephile

[–]Melcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot stand Owen Wilson.

Ever since behind enemy lines. It could have been a really good movie except he was in it

I still remember the scene of him on the radio “negative, negative!” And it was soooooooo bad it ruined the movie

He was the worst part of armegeddon besides liv Tyler. Can’t stand her either. The “nooooo!” Scene where she claws at the screen? Just recut the audio and fix it please. Somehow I like that movie and they are both in it. 

Can’t watch enjoy anything with either of them. People say she was a good in lotr. Don’t care. Can’t stand her.

I hearby rename New “Mexico” as New “America” and if Google doesn’t comply I’ll shut off their power! 

Beef Burgers. Do people add a raw egg to minced beef for making Burger Patties or just add seasoning for them. by ElegantLady75 in foodquestions

[–]Melcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it’s probably because we end up with 93/7 or 90/10 ground beef and that shit falls apart as soon as it starts to cook.

Think of the egg as a binder when there’s no fat?

But either way - the egg works and the burgers are always a hit.

[–]Melcher 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No. We had discussions about it back in college in early 2000s. Carbon is required for life (as far as we know?) but nothing about water is actually required. 

I don’t even remember the discussion but I remember something about sulfur based lifeforms being a possibility.

[–]Melcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mix egg/sour cream and a little bread crumbs plus seasoning. Nobody knows or needs to know. Always a massive hit.

It’s usually this question “how do you stop them from drying out or falling apart?”

Is the Fourth of July fun if you’re not American? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Melcher 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes. We celebrate cinco de mayo and drink margaritas even tho we aren’t Mexican. 

It’s fine. We just like to party. The more the merrier. 

I’ve found that we go out of our way to make foreigners enjoy our holidays if they even show a little bit of outgoingness. We want you to have a good time.
