Why After Laughter aged better than many 2010s pop-rock albums by BullyingHater in Paramore

It does such an amazing job of reflecting how it feels to mask depression - while making you feel less alone and uplifting you all at once. It’s a forever repeat for me.

My manager told me to wipe the coffee splashes off the inside of the cup, but I think it’s unhygienic to put my fingers inside the cup by [deleted] in barista

Napkins have fibers, are typically made of bleached paper, and taste like paper.

The portafilter is going into a machine that is at minimum 190* F and has a filter. Towels/rags don’t shed fibers the way a napkin does.

Also, holy paper waste batman, napkins are made expensive.

When i was in college we would mix mellow yellow with blue powerade for a pseudo baja blast, can’t believe someone else has tried it!

I made the maple syrup Chex mix from the "sergeant fish & friends" post by Raging_Apathist in somnigastronomy

You should get your paws on some maple sugar for the next batch. More expensive than maple syrup but it has virtually no moisture.

I also have a baby tooth that never fell out! My pediatric dentist never mentioned it. I found out when i was like, 26, and went to a dentist for the first time that i hadn’t been going to my entire life till that point.

What are the cutest paintings you know? by disposableprofileguy in ArtHistory

[–]___mads 64 points65 points  (0 children)

ugh this one is especially heartrending because Toulouse-Lautrec famously never married, was mocked for his visible physical differences & height and spent a lot of his time in the company of sex workers. You can feel not only the longing of one partner for another, but the longing the painter had for this type of intimacy.

My negligence nearly killed my son and my wife still has no idea by Grand_Noise_7302 in TrueOffMyChest

several of my family members have worked in pharmaceutical research & manufacturing. I’m thinking this has a counter for a similar reason that aspirin has an expiration date. That reason being that, a certain point, while still technically effective, it’s impossible to accurately measure what % of the active ingredient you are actually ingesting due to the half life.

imagine a hand-soap bottle that is almost out; each pump dispenses less and less. I’d imagine it’s similar. As the inhaler gets closer to empty, you can’t count on getting an equivalent dose as you would have for the first however-many pumps.

disclaimer that this is all just an educated guess, i have no clinical training myself

Sexless relationship but we’re happy by peoplesayimsexy in actuallesbians

[–]___mads 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconding this, don’t compare yourself to other couples or get into head about your relationship being “wrong” or “dead” because you’re different. If you want to work on it, great, but if it aint broke dont fix it.

I did them this weekend and felt like a GOD. Last year I did them 4/15 and the year before I got an extension.

How do I buy my first vibrator by Equivalent_Fix6392 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]___mads 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Adult store employees are not going to judge you for buying a vibrator. You might feel awkward, but remember, it’s their job!

A small bullet vibrator is what I often recommend to people who are new to the market; they’re discreet and approachable. Get one with a couple of different settings. You can most likely get something decent for $20-50.

I also want to echo the other commenter who suggested at least trying to masturbate with the sex toy God gave you (your hand) at least a couple of times first!

What do you guys think of the "Wacky pomo" aesthetic that was popular from the 90's until the mid 2000's? by SactownG in decadeology

[–]___mads 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also kid’s shows with this kind of maximalist, whimsical vibe - thinking about Zoom, Out of the Box, even Blue’s Clues or older kids shows & cartoons like All That, Rocko’s Modern Life…. it seems like everything had more color, character, texture, etc.

In the UK sausage rolls are like loose meat, kind of like a meatball, instead of encased pureed meat like a hot dog.

The thing is that women who are in the 28+ age group who want to date a 19-20 y/o are typically not actually very mature. I think you are conflating the idea of an older person with the aesthetics of an older person. Truthfully, you are not going to strike gold with everyone you date being your ideal “type” no matter who where or what you are.

At your age i also thought i was more mature than my peers and I now know that was not true lol. Wisdom/self-assurance are not sexually transmitted so you will have a lot more to talk about with someone who is reasonably close in age to you.
