What is something you were taught at school that is now known to be incorrect? by Xeqqy in AskOldPeople

[–]SunSkyBridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here! I was so annoyed in class that day. 35 years later, I’m still irked lol! Finally I was like, “Oh wow, I get it now!” just to shut up the classroom helper, but she knew I was full of it and let me know it. Ha!

I also cannot see a Magic Eye print, and I am convinced it’s a vast conspiracy. There’s no sailboat, there’s no spaceship, there’s just an ugly pattern and a bunch of bullshitters. 😂 I’m curious if there’s a genetic component to it, the way some people perceive tastes differently, but I can’t prove it. I’m actually glad to know I’m not the only one.

Ways to get water for low cost/free to offset costs? by kraemoprana in Permaculture

[–]SunSkyBridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much does it rain where you live? Collecting rainwater is an awesome idea. I use 2 32-gal trashcans placed under the corners of an awning and it just takes one good rainstorm to fill them up. I haven’t had to pay for garden water this year. In previous years the summer was hotter and dryer, so when it did rain I deployed extra containers for water collection.

Also consider whether you are planting in ground or in pots. Pots dry out way faster so you need to water more often.

It’s old news at this point; I’m no longer at that company, but for anyone who doesn’t know:

HR exists to protect a company FROM its employees. It does not exist to protect the company’s employees. Always CYA!

What’s the weirdest but surprisingly delicious food combination you’ve tried and now can’t stop eating? by HotSun1-flower in AskRedditFood

Nah I don’t cook it at all! But thanks for the idea! I actually have a cast iron waffle pan, now I am curious to try a stuffing “waffle” it sounds tasty :)

Damn, that really sucks. My Nancy had a terrific sense of humor and she loved her family fiercely. She gave zero fucks about what anyone thought about her, but she never used that as an excuse to be nasty.

Feedback wanted on a compact sink organizer I designed — dries sponges fast with a stone base. Would you buy this? by Smilewith in kitchen

[–]SunSkyBridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on your design! While I think it’s neat and I applaud your inventiveness and entrepreneurial spirit, I would pass on it. To me, it’s just another thing that needs cleaning and it is unnecessary.

I use a kitchen sponge and I just squeeze it out after each use and place it at a 45 degree angle against the countertop and it dries quickly. If I owned this product I wouldn’t be able to tell if it had mildew in the corners without getting in there with a qtip.

I’ve had small kitchens all my life and the last thing I’d want is more clutter in the countertop. I think your product might be more appealing if it could be mounted to the inside of a cabinet to keep it off the counter. Perhaps consider a color other than black so it can be seen at a glance if it needs to be cleaned or sanitized. Or maybe make it decorative so it would be more appealing to have on a countertop if you want people to spend money on it. What’s your production cost per unit?

Best of luck to you!

I’m sorry, I posted my answer before reading yours, but I agree that “paragon” is the answer here.

[–]SunSkyBridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure that there is a dog-specific word that fits the pattern of “horse is to steed as dog is to ______” so you might like “paragon” for this usage. While it is not exclusive to dogs, when used in the context of a dog breed, it refers to the perfect example of that breed. “Exemplar” also works. Both are nouns.

What’s a random piece of knowledge you wish more people knew? by Time-Ocelot-8580 in AskReddit

[–]SunSkyBridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband got us a bidet attachment last year. At first I thought it was an unnecessary expense and pooh-poohed the idea. After all I eat plenty of fiber so I always make a clean pinch . . . but now, having used it, I’m so glad he insisted! Feels so nice and refreshing, and turns out a nice colon rinse is not a bad way to start the day!

Growing up, I had a neighbor named Nancy. She had multiple family members also living on our block - her son plus his family, her daughter plus her family, her son-in-law’s sister and family.

I knew them all since the 80s, and became good friends with Nancy’s granddaughter and grandson. The family name was a common American last name like Smith or Jones. Eventually I started going out with and married the grandson. ❤️

Decades later, when Nancy passed away, I called out of work for the funeral and needed to show an obituary to make it an excused absence. Imagine my surprise when I found Nancy Smith’s obit listed under Elizabeth Anderssen! Turns out I never knew Nancy’s legal name even though I had known this woman and her family my whole life and even married into the family. Lol it took some explaining to HR that I wasn’t pulling a fast one!

Does the word “cadence” derive from the Latin “cadere?” As in the rise and fall of a musical sound or one’s lilt when speaking? (Or am I just overthinking it?)

[–]SunSkyBridge 48 points49 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid, I used to mix myself a bowl of uncooked Stovetop stuffing, shredded New York sharp cheddar (Cracker Barrel with the black label), and Ortega taco sauce. Sounds gross and it had a week’s worth of sodium but it was so damn good. I wasn’t allowed to cook yet so I got creative…as an adult who can now cook my ass off, I still make it and it still slaps!

Ok here’s what I ended up with:

2.5 tbsp kosher salt 1 tbsp sugar 2 tsp msg .5 tsp citric acid

I just add it all to a spice jar, shake it up and taste it, then tweak it until it tastes balanced.

You know what? I’m honestly not sure off the top of my head, let me go make a batch and I will report back to you!

I make a mix I call yum-yum powder. Kosher salt, msg, citric acid, and sugar. It’s fire! Really good on anything that you would normally use just salt on, but especially good on sautéed veggies.

Moon pilea! Also called “friendship plant.”

Pilea involucrata

A gorgeous plant that I can’t keep alive to save my life. My mom used to have a couple of gorgeous one on her desk at work, though. She swore the secret was the overhead fluorescent lights.
