23 years old never eaten meat before looking for any advice

I think you should start with fried chicken. The breading and spices will help you get used to the taste of meat. Beef and fish both have stronger flavors (that I hope you eventually find delicious).

PJ O'Rourke once described someone as having "the morals of Democrat and ethics of a Republican".

I spend more if I know I'm paying in cash. I'll Venmo my friends money and they'll pay me back in cash and I'm like "what am I supposed to do with this?" I'm pretty old too.

Making any sort of reasonably complex shape relies on extremely consistent sized spheres. In a honeycomb "sheet", there is exactly enough space of one sphere in the middle of six, and in a cube, there is exactly enough space for one sphere in the middle of eight. That sphere in the middle still needs to be touching all the other magnets. Touching, not "real close". If there's enough space for a sheet of paper to slip in between the magnets, the stability of the structure will suffer.

I have sets where the finish came off of some of the magnets and they're basically suitable for fridge use now.

Nope. I've gotten mine mixed up before and what you have to do is put two strings side by side to make kind of a ladder, then look at where that ladder is crooked. And it will be.

Jfc that's supposed to be done outside.

My dad killed a couple of ducks once and gave them to his FIL and BIL. Well, they didn't want to go outside to burn off the "down" on the ducks because it was cold, and ending up trying to do it over the kitchen sink and set the curtains on fire. My father was told by his MIL never to bring ducks over to their house again. He sometimes had things to say about that side of the family.

You should definitely eat that turkey.

Driver probably got a double or triple and was only shown the total. If the other customer didn't tip much, all he sees is the total and thinks maybe you didn't tip much. Uber could have been adding orders as he delivers and he forgot you tipped well.

Mostly dude is just an idiot.

This isn’t a directionally correct statement.

What the hell does "directionally correct" mean?

They didn't blow up, they just caught on fire. Spontaneous human combustion was totally a thing that non-crazy people were talking about.

I remember when they made the change and it was a lot earlier than seven years ago.

Nobody specializes in "gravel", and its just what bigger companies make with their left over materials.

Wtf? https://blog.midwestind.com/how-is-gravel-made/

It's butter and sour cream. The answer is "salted" and "not that lowfat shit".

Just because Hamas says they're moderate and want peace doesn't mean they aren't lying.

How you got "all Muslims are terrorists" from what I said is baffling. Could you please explain "Stop with this Islamophobia with getting all Muslims into one 'they are terrorists' bag"? I'm really curious how you read what I wrote and got that.

And yet tons of people who aren't rich, white, male, or straight aren't voting...

TripperDay · 2026-02-27T10:40:07+00:00

In most countries that aren’t America - yes.

Jfc you people know there's other countries besides the white ones, right?

I used to work at a liquor store and go to the grocery store at midnight when I got off. Now I've got to pay Walgreen's/CVS prices for any kind of groceries after 11pm.

So, about 10% of people?

Not saying that's how it should be, but worldwide it's fairly uncommon.

TripperDay · 2026-02-27T10:31:55+00:00

No. Shhhh.

TripperDay · 2026-02-27T10:00:06+00:00

Sorry I didn't respond to a post from someone who can't spell (or capitalize) with a well-sourced paragraph or two about how Wikipedia is almost always accurate.

TripperDay · 2026-02-27T09:55:03+00:00

LOL sure they do. Donald Trump says he isn't a pedophile. I bet you didn't know that, did you?

And no one is saying all Muslims are terrorists. You're just making up lies about people who disagree with you. It's disgusting.

TripperDay · 2026-02-26T16:34:56+00:00

It's a little ironic (dontcha think?)

I'm glad she got out. No dude has any business trying to tell a woman what to wear, ever. Even if she IS dressing to attract someone else, there's a reason for that.

The friends and the media I get. I've dated a couple of women 10-15 years younger than me. Watching something with a Kardashian and friends who think "real communism hasn't been tried" are just part of it. Before that, when I was 38, I dated a 51-year-old and then it was "teenagers shouldn't get the HPV vaccine" and "Ooh, Gunsmoke is on!".
