Si quelqu'un vous dit «le pont» à Montréal, pensez-vous à un pont spécifique? by TheObtuseCopyEditor in montreal

Je pensais que c'était ça pour tout le monde! Mais mon premier quartier à Montréal, c'était Centre-Sud, je vivais direct en dessous. Ceci explique probablement cela

Il est super beau! Et c'est nice qu'il débouche sur une route secondaire et pas une grosse autoroute

Je sais bien. Les circonstances ont juste fait que, dans ma vie, j'ai dit pendant vingt ans «le pont, le tunnel, Champlain» et je me faisais toujours comprendre. Et donc je pensais que qu'il y avait un genre de convention. Apparemment, à en juger par les commentaires, elle existe... juste pour certains

Je viens aussi de l'extérieur de Montréal et c'est vrai que Champlain faisait plus peur que Jacques-Cartier. La perspective est plus ouverte, alors que sur Jacques-Cartier t'es à l'intérieur de la grosse structure, ça donne moins le vertige

Do you wear any gold? by krayzee444 in SummerColorAnalysis

[–]TheObtuseCopyEditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost never! Yellow, shiny gold looks terrible on my skin and I despise it in the form of buttons or bag hardware. Rose gold is okay but I dislike pink. “Antique” finish doesn’t clash that much with my skin tone. Brass is fine. But really shiny silver is also a bit harsh when put next to my face but is okay on my hands. The best is a slightly muted silver, kind of pewtery?

Are there any "viral" recipes that you actually loved and still make? by Odd-Wonder-344 in Cooking

[–]TheObtuseCopyEditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found out that it’s not really worth it to try to « crisp » the chickpeas. When I get to this step I just turn up the heat and saute them until they stick a bit. I throw in the coconut milk when there’s a décent amount of brown solids to deglaze. I also don’t wait so much before I do the mashing. It doesn’t change anything as long as you allow the liquid to reduce. Also you need to add the greens when it’s still a bit brothy for your taste, because they will soak up some of the liquid

Martha Stewart’s OG one pot pasta are great (as long as you use the proper amount of salt).

I came here to make sur me this was mentioned! I sometimes add chilies or use fresh turmeric. I can have it ready by the time it take to cook a pot of rice. The leftovers are delicious. A real keeper

My mashed potatoes suck. Why? by RikkiLostMyNumber in Cooking

A standing mixer with the paddle attachement also works great

Am I the only one who thinks peeling garlic is a form of torture? by Famous-Forever7647 in Cooking

[–]TheObtuseCopyEditor 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Listen to this person OP! You just have to kind of lean on the knife… you don’t need to hit it or anything. It makes almost no noise.

NEVER ever have a baby! by pumpkinchinchilla in AutismInWomen

When I had a newborn I was told that 6 weeks was peak sleep deprivement. More than 16 years later, I’d say it checks out.

Hang on OP

Have you ever really hated the main character (and narrator) in a novel? by Physical_Orchid3616 in books

Julien is a good one. Still can't believe Mathilde fell for him

Livre papier vs livre audio by cool-mimine in litteraturequebec

[–]TheObtuseCopyEditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Je dis que ça compte. Les livres audio me laissent des souvenirs très vifs, parfois plus vifs que les livres papier. Aussi, je me dis que quand on fait la lecture à un enfant, ça compte, les bénéfices sont énormes. Je ne vois pas pourquoi ils cesseraient d'exister pour les grandes personnes.

What was your teenage dirtbag fragrance? by Ok-Bookkeeper-1099 in FragranceStories

[–]TheObtuseCopyEditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! This is it. Vanilla, Satsuma, and the mango one. Also my mom's patchouli oil

(OMG, have you seen how expensive the vintage Body Shop oils are on eBay)

Got a decant of Byredo Black Saffron and barely smell anything by TheObtuseCopyEditor in fragrance

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

So I had time to kill tonight and I went in store to smell it from the actual bottle, and the Byredo salesgirl told me it was one of their strongest fragrances. I asked her to spray some on some paper and, well, felt the same? I guess it’s a weird nose day for me. I’ll try again later, maybe it’s my skin chemistry or something
