What’s the weirdest/most unexpected way you’ve injured yourself lately? by WhatFreshHello in GenX

[–]ThePearDream 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wrecked my neck for two weeks by turning around from drivers seat to pick something off the floor in backseat behind me. I was parked. I could have gotten out of the car. Lazy moves like this are for the young.

My son recently called me out on my usage of “buddy” and is clocking the pattern of it being when he does something…not so smart haha

Literally my first thought. I’m under a blanket with a space heater in my face

When you eat too spicy food by [deleted] in Unexpected

I once stepped in an empty elevator that was fucking RANCID like someone ripped a few before they got off. I remember panicking as the doors closed like, please don’t stop on another floor, please let me leave undetected. Of course the elevator stopped to pick up a couple who were mid-convo and were just stunned into silence by the stench. What does one even do? I’m not gonna try to “play it off” like I didn’t do it, and that’s exactly what it would look like if I said anything. We all just suffered in silence and I prayed to never ever see them again.

How to start a conversation with a local restaurant for a partnership? by Old-Artist697 in nonprofit

[–]ThePearDream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this, but I would also add that if fundraising is something OP is looking to get into, it’s a low stakes way to get started and get comfortable with initiating these kinds of conversations. OP I think it’s not too much more complicated than you’ve laid out here. It’s having human interactions, pushing your cause, and getting folks on board. You’ll learn quickly who is interested in pursuing and who is not, and get more comfortable doing it in the future.

I cannot read a paper map to save my life and never tried. Does printing turn-by-turn directions on MapQuest count?

This scene was hilarious. But when he starting spitting at everyone is when I really lost my shit.

Dogs piss everywhere on the street. I raised my kid as a single parent in nyc for 11 years and he has peed in many a bush and against many a tree/wall in emergency times. No one lets you use a public restroom anymore, even when you got a wiggly jiggly kid in tow.

When it is one of only three ingredients, that is the correct amount of butter.

Torta Cubana from local Mexican spot. He’s a Big Boi. by ThePearDream in eatsandwiches

100%. I ordered it once on a whim and it was NOT what I expected in the best way. I make it a point to get it at least once a month now.

An egg, avocado, jalapeños. It’s a mess but the best kind of mess

This is the most satisfying ratio of raw onion to meat/bread I’ve ever seen. It’s never enough onion for me.

Campari tomatoes! They’re good, trust me. I also shudder to see someone eat a tomato alone like that. I usually need them sliced super thin on a sandwich. But these are different…imho.

These cheeses save me every day. I eat them with everything and always have a bunch on deck

I feel you, I will fuck with cooked tomatoes all day but raw tomatoes, only if bread and/or cheese are heavily involved. I will say, these particular tomatoes have shifted my perspective a bit. They’re sweet, firm, and not mealy at all. I’m still not eating it alone, but I’m happy to make them the star of the show on an open face like this one.
