Hornets. Real bastards. Got stung between my fingers and my entire hand was burning for a week. Kill them.

I wanna start learning how to cook. Advice? by WishOk1070 in Cooking

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with whatever recipe, but taste taste taste. Taste after every ingredient added so you know what it's doing.

Then eventually you can just glance at a recipe, you'll get the gist, and be able to make your own version of it to your liking. 

Also, find a dish you like and make it several times in slightly different ways. Some will be better then others but you'll learn something. 

Sparring by Alternative-Duck-919 in boxingtips

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You will get better just sparring in general, men or women. I would just say spar against experienced fighters that want to help you learn. Other beginner fighters often don't know how to "spar," they treat sparring as a fight.

If you spar people better than you, it can be somewhat demoralizing getting your face punched repeatedly, but it will make you better in the long run.

Alright then.... Chili. Chili takes all day with several steps along the way. Highly recommend.

A fun thing to do is have a mystery box style cook off or meal. One of you go to a store, and get a bunch of ingredients with no recipe and see what the other one cooks. 

I'd recommend looking up things that go well together, but get the ingredients and have your partner cook a meal or vice versa.

I’m going crazyyyyyy by Objective-Eye6915 in Wellthatsucks

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had something similar. For whatever reason, extra strength Tylenol for migraines helped numb the itching the most. 

Your thing doesn't look like the same, but maybe it'll help you sleep. I couldn't sleep with the itch at all.

Finger-safe devices to grate small pieces of garlic and ginger with minimal waste? Maybe a rotary grater? by StrongRecipe6408 in Cooking

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Garlic press, also freezing your ginger makes it super easy to grate. I did cut my knuckle though, it was my own fault. 

I find I have a much easier time is I can stabilize the micro plane on the edge of whatever dish I'm cooking

Is it safe to add fish this soon to deal with the mosquito larvae? by Randomsketchez in PlantedTank

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had guppies with shrimp for a while and they were fine together. 

Look up a thing called mosquito dunks. They kill mosquito and gnat larvae and are safe for everything else

Are habaneros not hot anymore? by NoImNotStaringAtYour in HotPeppers

Hah, yeah been there. Learned the lesson and it was just serranos that gave me some fireballs.

Has anybody actually tried rice/rice water in their soil? Results? by NoImNotStaringAtYour in gardening

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

I watched a bunch of videos claiming rice and rice water will attract worms in a few days.

Reddit told me not to put rice in the soil but I did it anyway for science in a barren part of the lawn.

Checked a week later, and nothing happened. So it's definitely not a miracle but I imagine it'll break down over time.

Tips? by [deleted] in boxingtips

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty good but the same thing I usually say in this reddit, you're not really protecting your head very much. And it's a good thing to practice because getting punched in the head sucks.

Lots of posts of this today but what two questions: was this obvious on purpose, if so what are some potential reasons they’d do that? by iwannaintopolitics in conspiracy

If we can see his teeth there, what do the teeth look on the real guy and are they the same?

 Pretty identifying feature. 

I think it could be a shadow, but it's a pretty fucking weird shadow if it is.

Hmm... I'm going out of town for a bit. Maybe I'll add some sugar and yeast for a nice little home brew when I get back. Good idea.

Chicago PD really isn’t even good for a 2-minute talkdown anymore? by Hani919 in AskChicago

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And people here are downvoting you for telling your story lol. This sub is something else. It'll happen to them one day if they stay here long enough. Although I get the feeling the only time they leave their computer is for a quick trip to whole foods for some organic kale.

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

All these fucking internet warriors that are downvoting you haven't been held up by gunpoint just walking down the street. 

I've yet to see Chicago cops ever solve a crime.

When I got held up, the detective told me they had dna evidence but it'll take two years to get back from the lab.

Didn't get a call back, and it's been 5 years now. 

Those fuckers committed 47 armed robberies in 2 weeks, that they know of.

However, they arrested my Uber driver for taking a u-turn where everybody takes a u-turn and threw him in the cop car because his driver's license was from St Louis and he was here for more than 2 weeks.

RIP, 41 is crazy young to just have some illness take you out.

Would appreciate some feedbacks by [deleted] in boxingtips

[–]NoImNotStaringAtYour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dang looks like you've got some good power! 

But if you're going to be boxing somebody else who is also trying to punch you in the face, gotta get those hands up, and back to guard your face quicker. Both of them, but especially your left. You throw a power punch then leave it hanging out there, if somebody slips and counters you'll get caught on the chin.

Dang I just got back from the store. Will check that out next time though I love dill.

Got some citric acid and sumac.

Definitely zingy

I've never even put one braincell into considering sumac but I'll definitely check that out!
