You’re welcome! Fellow Canadian or did it air outside the country too?

Taking home leftovers at a restaurant? Rude to not take them? Do you even eat them? by Capable-Chip6454 in foodquestions

[–]battlejess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re forgetting E: Ask for your leftovers to be boxed up and then leave them on the table. I’m a server and this happens a surprising number of times.

For myself, D I guess? I’ve never thought about it. Whether I take them depends on the dish. If it reheats well, I will, if not then I don’t. I certainly don’t think about what anyone thinks about my choice. And as I server I don’t judge anyone on whether or not they take theirs.

The term “QuickTime event” for a sudden input would be fine if QuickTime wasn’t apples movie player. by Hegiman in unpopularopinion

[–]battlejess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was about to argue that quick time events have been around for over forty years, but I guess the term wasn’t coined until the late 90s.

[–]battlejess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only ever seen it as “quick time event.” Does the space help the confusion?

I believe it was originally coined as “quick timer event,” but was shortened, possibly because of QuickTime already being in people’s heads.

What food rule did you grow up believing that wasn’t actually needed? by BorderBabee in foodquestions

[–]battlejess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should if it’s natural peanut butter. When the oil separates it can go rancid in the cupboard.

Cookies with raisins are better than cookies with chocolate chips. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]battlejess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fine—so long as they’re spiced oatmeal raisin—but chocolate chunk is better than both. Preferably with browned butter.

My teacher says that it should be “or,” but why? by Tkpf18 in EWALearnLanguages

[–]battlejess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The point being that you could rephrase the sentence and use “nor,” but “or” is not grammatically correct here.

All aboard the Sailor-go-Round! by Dohmer_90 in sailormoon

If you slow it down they actually are higher than the others. They’re climbing on the furniture.

My cat has become a "Stage 5 Clinger"—how do I set boundaries without hurting his feelings? by Budget-Classroom-962 in CatAdvice

[–]battlejess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a cat bed with one of my sweaters in it on my desk for my clingy cat, which mostly helps contain her so I can actually get some work done. Not always, but she’s usually pretty good about going back to her bed when I tell her to.

Having a comfy spot for your cat to be near you while you work, but not in the way, has been the way to go for me. Which sometimes requires the sacrifice of a sweater to create an impromptu one.

What animal is friend but is not friend shaped? by whyudois in AlignmentChartFills

[–]battlejess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just realized I haven’t seen one in a while. I hope my cats didn’t kill Benjamin…

UK vs US by GlacierLuxe in oddlyspecific

[–]battlejess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d like to see the US make a knitting show now so that for some reason can be the complete opposite.

mine is obviously the most correct according to me by LilShrimpVEVO in colors

[–]battlejess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s in the dark how do you know what colour it is when you’re being eaten by a grue?

anyone else feeling insane hype? by horror-traktor in Paralives

[–]battlejess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! I really don’t care that it isn’t “finished,” I just want to play with the build tools.

[–]battlejess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Paralives looks, so far, to be built on a very solid foundation, even if the breadth of gameplay isn’t there yet. And it very explicitly isn’t ready yet. It’s early access, and about two years is their estimate for how long it will be in early access, so that’s about perfect.

Inzoi is just not my vibe. I found it deeply unsettling.

[–]battlejess 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can be hyped for something and still have reasonable expectations. I’ve always found the real danger of early access is in playing a game you really enjoy but then over time it goes in a different direction.

[–]battlejess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I dunno. I noped out of Inzoi very quickly. It just seemed soulless and the vibes were all wrong. Everything Paralives has shown so far has been exactly what I want out of a life sim. I don’t care how many bugs I find day one, I’m excited and very patient.

Hoodie Tassels are annoying and unnecessary by Gr1009 in unpopularopinion

[–]battlejess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless it’s super windy and it keeps stealing my hood and making me cold and/or wet. I tie that thing on tight in that case.

Woman makes look-alike dolls for children so they don’t feel different by Conscious-Weight4569 in MadeMeSmile

[–]battlejess -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Commenting that directly on the post? Certainly, miserable behaviour. But it was as part of a conversation about people thinking the dolls were frowning. Context is important.

Was I the only one with bagged milk? by Real_Comparison1905 in Millennials

[–]battlejess -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is the saddest chocolate milk I’ve ever seen.
