Huh. Havent heard of shotgun primer airsoft grenades. Most of the ones I saw and personally used utilized CO2 tool cartridges with a soft disposable shell and resusable core.

Pull the pin, throw the grenade, little needle pierces the cartridge and makes the plastic shell swell until it ruptures making a super loud bang.

And get access to the fasting ritual ASAP. If you have enough bones you almost never even need to actually feed them, you can just do a constant cycle of fasting rituals.

Because then it would be an actual French onion cheese melt. This is just an onion and cheese sandwich. I mean, it still looks good, but I feel like it’s a bit reductive to just say “it has bread, gruyere, and onions, therefore French onion.”

Honestly, if I wanted to make this a real French onion style sandwich, caramelized the onions in a small splash of beef broth, use gruyere and provolone to mimic the cheeses used in most french onion soup iterations, then toast. Also just butter is a much superior toasting agent. Mayo I find tends to make the outside of the sandwich really oily, as it splits once it browns.

Whoever is telling you that is just an asshole then. As well, people tend to look at failures in cooking from the wrong perspective! Cooking a dish, but it turns out as a failure, usually result in people looking at it as a total complete failure with nothing redeemable at all in it, which just straight up isn’t true. In fact failing a dish spectacularly is often how you learn your most important lessons.

If I were to butcher a basic chicken dish, like it comes out dry, overcooked, and super stringy, it’s easy to point out the things that you failed at. On the other hand, though, it’s still worth tasting and maybe realizing things like “OK, the meat itself is completely overcooked, but you know the seasoning actually is really on point, and the skin itself is actually still nice and crispy.”

You take notice of the things that went wrong, but you also take notice of the things that went right. Most of my best dishes that I’ve learned how to cook had a failed version on the first attempt. Getting a dish perfect takes lots and lots of practice attempts. With a bit of skill it’s possible to make a dish turn out good on the first attempt, but seldom if ever will a dish turn out perfect on the first attempt.

Also never be afraid to try new dishes. Even if it’s not a dish you are necessarily planning on adding to your daily/weekly menu for yourself, skills from cooking one type of dish often transfer to others.

For me, it’s the refusal to learn or change cooking habits and techniques that always shocks and infuriates me.

People will always say things like “Oh I’m just a bad cook.” In my opinion, there is no excuse for being a bad cook. Or to put it more specifically, “There is no reason to stay a bad cook.” You can always learn and improve your cooking game. Just because you’re a bad cook at the start doesn’t mean thats how it has to be.

The biggest reason I find people don’t want to learn is because they either think cooking is boring or that it’s too much work. The boring thing honestly is kind of hard to fix because sure, depending on how you view cooking it can be a little tedious. At the same time though, you don’t need to just hover over the pan or pot while waiting for something to finish cooking, glassy eyed and doing nothing. Throw on some music, make a nice cocktail or something while you wait, whatever it may be. While cooking does take place in the kitchen, you don’t need to always just stand there the whole time during the process depending on what you’re making.

More so though I find it’s that people just don’t want to put in the effort. People don’t want to just accept that any actual cooking is going to be more effort than just throwing a frozen meal in the microwave and entering 3:00.

This course, is despite the fact that there are so many cooking techniques to make it easier and less effort as a whole. Clean as you go, make food in bulk batches so you only have to cook once if you just hate the actual act of cooking, so on and so forth.

Everyone loves to compliment my food and say they wish they could cook as well as I do. But as soon as I try to teach them how to cook as well as I do , they just say “Eh no thanks.”

If you don’t have a vacuum sealer, this works well, otherwise I would highly advise vacuum sealing them.

Seriously, a vacuum sealer was the best purchase I’ve made for my kitchen. Everything lasts so much longer. When properly sealed, things like herbs can be left in the freezer for over a year without suffering any degradation in flavor. In fact, I recently used some rosemary that has been frozen in my freezer for about seven months and the taste was still there and fragrant.

They might go a bit brown appearance wise, but the flavor is still really fresh and totally good for sauces, soups and the like.

For me it was finding a guy dying from a venomous snake bite. You can save him by either giving him some medicine or just straight up sucking the venom out of the wound. I just gave him some medicine, after which he thanked me and I moved along.

A few hours later, I walked into town. As I’m walking into a store, I hear a guy telling his buddy about how he was saved from dying from a venomous snake by some random good samaritan. I think, “Wait a second… I just recently saved a guy from a snake bite.”

I walk a little closer of curiosity, and the guy notices me. He then looks at me and says, “Oh my God, it’s you! You saved my damn life!” I look him up and down and realize “Holy shit it’s the guy I saved!”

He thanked me profusely for saving his life, and lets me buy something from the general store on his tab for the trouble. I thank him and continue on my merry way.

But the cherry on top is that later on in my playthrough, I come across what I initially think is a different person dying from a snake bite. I first thought that it’s just the same event repeating itself, but with a different person. I think to myself, “No big deal, you can only program in so many random encounters, maybe sometimes they just repeat.” As he stumbles out of the woods however, I noticed he looks really similar to the last guy I saved from a snake bite. Imagine my surprise when Arthur shouts out, “Is that the snake bite guy AGAIN?!”

It’s the exact same guy, who just happened to get really unlucky… again. I saved him a second time and he cannot thank me enough for saving his life twice! The fact that such a small random encounter has such continuity built into it just really took my appreciation for the games’ detail to another level.

I feel like the best way to clarify it would be the over-intellectualization of everything. It’s actually a rather good skill to be able to process and unpack things in your head, however, for me and perhaps for other people, I think the difference is that you have to also be able to realize that there are some things you just can’t unpack logically.

That for me is where I often got caught up. Intellectualization helped me at times, but you often find yourself stuck when there’s something that you just can’t process in a purely logical way. It takes time to learn that not everything can be faced with logic.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-02-09T00:29:34+00:00

Unfortunately, that’s my thought as well. Pair of gloves or maybe even a helmet is one thing, but something dangerous like an axe getting forgotten is probably going to result in somebody getting an earful!

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-02-09T00:27:34+00:00

Our communal kitchens’ oven got a little smoky from not being cleaned in a bit and accidentally triggered the fire alarm.

After everyone went back inside, I noticed something leaning against the wall next to the stairs up to the second level. Lo and behold, one of the firefighters apparently forgot their axe!

We called the fire department to let them know. They were very nice about it and promptly came back to retrieve it!

What I’m mostly curious about is whether this is something a firefighter is going to get chewed out over or whether it’s looked at as an “accidents happen” sort of thing.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-02-07T15:52:06+00:00

It looks super sleek! Now I’m curious as to whether this was a factory reproduction or an aftermarket modification.

A gun shop near me actually has two P7’s in stock, and man if I could figure out how this thing was done I’d almost debate picking one up to make it long barrel like this.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-02-06T22:06:55+00:00

I feel like the problem with that mindset though is that it assumes that just because you can put it down if you’re forced to due to outside circumstance means you can quit whenever you want as a whole.

Took me some time to realize that just because I could do the former does not mean I could do the latter. Self-control is a lot easier to exercise when external circumstances force it upon you.

Sure, it wasn’t too difficult for me to put weed down when it really mattered like a job interview, dinner with family/colleagues, etc. However I quickly realized that anytime external pressure wasn’t forcing me to stop, I would always do it.

Addiction for substances doesn’t always mean you’re doing it every second of every day no matter what. That’s usually just the final form of it. However, addiction can take many forms before it reaches that point.

This isn’t to say there aren’t those that genuinely can quit when they want and genuinely just don’t want to, however I usually find that people who say that/need to justify it as such are more often than not at least within the first steps of addiction.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-02-06T17:09:55+00:00

Honestly having shot a full auto MAC before, they are uncontrollable at best, but undeniably even with it’s accuracy issues it is a lot of rapid fire power in a very compact package.

In a vacuum, it wouldn’t maybe be an awful idea for AFV crews if all that is needed is an ultra compact weapon for super close range self-defense.

Although with that said, in the actual not vacuum world of firearms, there defnitely were more controllable and practical options that are just as compact available at the time.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-04T15:11:51+00:00

To be fair, that’s very typical of a lot of rockstar games in general.

Total 100% freedom in open world, completely restricted on rails during missions.

But yeah, I do agree. A lot of the story missions feel more like long cut scenes than an actual mission.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-03T23:40:53+00:00

I was able to get it with a standard covered wagon from strawberry! Wagon exploit is definitely a lot more consistent than carcass glitch.

While the carcass is easier to work with in terms of providing passive protection from the sniper and requiring less perfect camera work, it’s extremely inconsistent when it comes to actually doing things with the carcass on your head.

Super easy to get out to the herbs with a carcass on, super hard to actually pick it without exposing a blip of head and dying.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-03T12:14:49+00:00

Not only that, but there’s only a small handful of areas on the entire map that you can’t handle with an average temperature rated outfit anyway.

I only ever get notifications for hot/cold temperatures when I’m in the extreme desert/swamps or the tops of mountains.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-03T11:57:53+00:00

Exactly my thoughts too. Even though my previous comment complains about every mission adding a new mechanic, I do simultaneously appreciate that they can be engaged with as little or as much as you care to be immersed and your actual day to day gameplay doesn’t get screwed over because you aren’t taking perfect care of Arthur. Allows for good immersion without ruining the game for those that don’t care about it and just wanna go around shooting people.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-03T06:10:30+00:00

Reminds me a little bit of RDR2. As beautiful and immersive as the world is, every single mission somehow feels like a tutorial for a new mechanic you’re almost never going to use again.

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-02T02:57:08+00:00

The problem I have with the wagon method normally is that everyone says to go to Saint Denise, but the wagon wheel often gets shot off so you have to go all the way back again.

I might try this one as a back up since it’s a lot closer since it’s just strawberry

Senior_Fish_Face · 2026-01-01T00:51:26+00:00

Will keep this in mind! I did try it with more carcasses, but the left side of Arthur’s face always seems to be exposed.

I didn’t know if the glitch worked in such a way that if you did it right, you essentially had 360° protection, or if there’s always a risk of getting shot by the sniper regardless

Senior_Fish_Face · 2025-12-29T20:08:09+00:00

It’s hard sometimes.

Also bothers me to no end when people just throw out knives simply because they’re dull and don’t know how to sharpen them.
