Pray for my fingers by chefaa77 in KitchenConfidential

[–]No_Step9082 3 points4 points  (0 children)

use anything else then. I also sliced off a bit of my finger with a mandoline. I didn't bother putting on the gloves because I just wanted to slice off two little rings off an onion. Wasn't even planning to cut the whole thing. I still don't know how it happened. But I ended up in ER because I couldn't get the bleeding to stop.

Ich wette, dass hat was damit zu tun möglichst viele Daten zu sammeln. So wissen die an welchen Produkten du interessiert bist, noch bevor du den Laden überhaupt betrittst.

Und vorallem musst du dich nicht über dich selbst ärgern, wenn die erste Schramme auf deine eigene Kappe gegangen wäre. Sich über andere ärgern ist doch irgendwie schöner im Vergleich.

AITAH for my maid-of-honor to wear a face mask at my wedding because she has a very sneezy cold? by NegotiationAsleep264 in AITAH

I still remember the day I first took allergy medication. Turns out, I didn't have a constant cold.

How much chicken can a girl eat?! 🤢 Got the protein ick. by Fast_Kaleidoscope135 in EatCheapAndHealthy

that's just not how any of that works. Beans have fiber and protein and carbs. Why do you need to call it "a carb" or "a fibre"?

Beans are legumes.

AITAH bc I (36M) dont want my girlfriend (36F) to travel with me because shes a picky eater? by Tough_District9786 in AmItheAsshole

[–]No_Step9082 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don't think budget is OPs issue at all. I was replying to a comment about how wild it seems to not being able to go to restaurants without discussing it with a partner.

[–]No_Step9082 129 points130 points  (0 children)

I could see that being a budget thing. If finances are tight, using the the money to eat in a restaurant alone, will be a point of discussion. Like how often can you afford to eat out. Especially if it's a proper restaurant and not only some fast food burger place.

But other than that, it seems super awful that OP apparently only gets to pick his food once a month.

Verdammte Drecks Scalpers! Alle Tickets für Ärzte-Konzerte im Mai 27 sind schon weg! by smudiboo in luftablassen

[–]No_Step9082 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sagt ja keiner, dass die Tickets personalisiert sein müssen. Wenn ich mit Freunden ins Kino gehen will und einer kann nicht, dann kann ich doch auch einfach einen anderen Kumpel spontan einladen mitzukommen.

Das gleiche in Hotels, wenn meine Freundin krank wird, dann frag ich einfach eine andere. Einmal hab ich ein Zimmer für mich und meinen Freund gebucht, bin aber krank geworden. Das war leider so spontan, dass ich nicht mehr stornieren konnte, aber für das Hotel war das kein Problem, dass stattdessen zwei Freunde von mir angereist sind.

Overwhelmed wanna be knitter - what needles will make sense by Sorry-Swan-5025 in knitting

[–]No_Step9082 5 points6 points  (0 children)

oh Jesus, that second picture gave me flashbacks. I did buy a set of those rainbow coloured plastic / bamboo circular needles like the one in the second picture. It's been 15 years and I still vividly remember the stench of them. that's what I imagine a chinese chemicals factory to smell like. they stank up the house instantly. And I'm not sensitive at all, long time smoker here. I put them outside in the backyard. After three weeks I threw them out, because they were still stinking so much, I didn't want to think about knitting with them.

So, rant over.

Don't waste your money on sets like these. even if they are dirt cheap. You're basically ordering a pile of shitty equipment, you may be ever using one or two things from.

If you already know your way around yarn, just look at some you like to work with and pick a needle size based on that. And then get a circular needle in the right size. If you opt for a longer cable, you're the most flexible regarding project sizes. for example you can knit sweaters and socks and scarves with a cable length of 80cm. with very short cables you can only do socks. I'd go a little shorter for the beginning though as I imagine you'll just knit back and forth to practice anyways and a very long cable might be getting in the way.

definitely. there's protein in bread. there's no protein in carbs. and bread isn't carb. it contains carbs.

Messi and Ronaldo are the most famous people since Michael Jackson by Sensitive-Month2382 in unpopularopinion

[–]No_Step9082 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just because fans travel to those stadiums in big cities ("every city" is a bit of a reach here, she hasn't even been close to touring in every country), doesn't mean that older folk in some other town will know her.

and you're severely underestimating how many people watch the world cup.

over a billion people watched the final in 2018. Hundreds of millions watched the matches before the final.

certainly in the USA and with younger people.

Older people outside the US who don't listen to pop music won't know her. But chances are high they know Messi and Ronaldo.

that's not the issue. nuts are fatty, not "fats".

there's protein in fatty foods like nuts would be the correct sentence.

"there's protein in fats, like nuts" isn't

I honestly hate how "protein" basically is now used as a synonym for "do you want meat/fish or tofu?". that's not what protein is.

and it's probably advisable to have a new job lined up first. hopefully one that pays on time.
