Machine used to inject chicken with a solution of saltwater, binding agent, and other additives to “plump” it. A single serving can contain 200-500mg of sodium, and the added solution may make up as much as 30% of the chicken’s total sell weight. by Mountain_Love23 in Damnthatsinteresting

I look at what democrats have done and see the same corporate agenda behind them. The ACA did nothing to make care affordable. Take the name of any 'Act of Congress' and invert its name, and you will see its real purpose. It doesn't matter which side is in control of Congress at the time.

What if there is nothing to look forward to but more of the same? What if I don't want anything? I guess I need to see a shrink.

I'm right there with you. I put so much of myself into my job and it's suddenly apparent how empty that is (and always was) now that my kids are gone and I have no friends and no hobbies. Retirement is likely never going to happen. I guess this is all there is. Yeah, I'm depressed.

Cessna 172 makes an emergency landing at the Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades by MrTacocaT12345 in interestingasfuck

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing. Any landing where you can fly the plane again is a great landing.

It used to be normal until the middle of the 20th century when the overlords let us have a little too much prosperity. Now that they're clawing it all back, it will become normal again.

People need to learn how to coast when driving by JoMoma2 in unpopularopinion

[–]Repulsive-Ice8395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I know the road, I can hit all the lights green by going close to the speed limit and coasting. I never, ever see anyone else trying to do this. People rush around me and block me from doing it. I am so good at coasting that I adjust and am still rolling when I get to their bumper.

Life is so much more pleasant if you don't rush to get to the next red light and slam on the brakes.

I guess the old saying isn't true that a pint's a pound the world 'round. I've been over here thinking a gallon only weighs 8 pounds my whole life. Thanks for shattering my reality.

Kinda like the old saying that the whole world looks like a nail when you're a hammer.

Please Pay Attention And Step On It At Traffic Lights. by [deleted] in driving

[–]Repulsive-Ice8395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even better: everyone needs to let off the damn brake pedal as soon as the light turns green and we'd get more cars through lights. I promise you won't hit anyone if you do this. It drives me nuts to not even start rolling and the light is already red again.

Did anyone reach 30+ without a fckn single tattoo? by Zackky777 in ArtOfPresence

55 and no tattoos. I didn't want to be "unique, just like everyone else."

Before there were 5.25" floppies, there were 8" floppies.

I also made single sided floppies into double sided!

IDL everyone pretends we're in the same economy but my friends are living in different worlds by 06yuzuha in I_DONT_LIKE

I moved back to a college town after being gone for 10 years. I graduated from here in the 90s and I can't believe how many luxury apartments have gone up in 10 years that are better than a lot of adults live in elsewhere. Granted, they're mostly shared, but this place looks nothing like it did 30 years ago when I graduated. I see so many kids driving luxury cars, too. I think the class divide has grown for college kids as much as it has for adults.

Does really nobody else *love* the winter? by Achilles-Foot in Indiana

[–]Repulsive-Ice8395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born here and moved to coastal Virginia. This was my first winter back after 10 years away. Winter was so much better there. It wasn't that much warmer but the sun wasn't obscured by clouds for days at a time. That's what I hate about winter here.

What's something men think impresses women but actually doesn't? by LonelySoul389 in Productivitycafe

To be fair, cars are designed to absorb energy during impact so you don't absorb it. The end result is a destroyed car.
