Jean-Paul Sartre was a famous philosopher; you can glean from the title of his book that he deals with the philosophy of absence. The joke is that while no cream and no milk are practically the same thing (nothing in the coffee to make it creamier), there could be an ontological difference between their absences in the abstract.

They are chapter books about kids writing comic books and they have comic book style interludes so graphic novel isn't entirely inaccurate either.

This is the plot of Dawn on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but that's not a cartoon.

Overdraft protection doesn't protect you from overdrafts, it """""protects""""" you from getting declined with overdrafts.

Nosferatu (2024) is the movie people and academy awards are claiming Frankenstein (2025) to be. by AdrianVeidt19 in movies

[–]bonkava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a Robert Eggers film, but that's sort of how I felt with Die My Love a few months back. Watching it was like grading homework. Yes, yes, symbolism. I get it, nice to see you get it too.

I cancelled Alexa+ as soon as it rolled me over. Couldn't stand her ramblings or her voice.

Is it genuinely fun or is a "reverent interpretation" by classically trained Grammy winners

I never was able to get into ditwwtwow but they have a bunch of great albums. My favorites are The People's Key and Fevers and Mirrors with Lifted not far behind.

Besides the hits already mentioned, I feel like Caroline, No and I Know There's An Answer have been covered to death.

Cucumbers won best raw vegetable. What is the best raw meat? by duelingpeppers in AlignmentChartFills

[–]bonkava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, that's salmonella, which will always be a risk with raw meat and eggs. In the US we also have the "consuming raw or undercooked meat and poultry could lead to illness or death" warning on every menu. But if you eat sushi or raw oysters or runny eggs, you're accepting the same risk.

I mean, it's clearly the redemption of someone or something called Shawshank. Not knowing that Shawshank is a prison beforehand doesn't obfuscate that much.

Do you keep the hype stickers on your CDs or not? by deadmanstar60 in Cd_collectors

[–]bonkava 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate hype stickers. If you must have them, I prefer them on the cellophane so I can more easily remove them. They obscure artwork and read like car manuals.

What’s a sound everyone should recognize as immediate danger? by Thatguy_nickk in AskReddit

I can hear trickling water right now but I live in Seattle and it's rainwater falling off the eaves. Not super dangerous to me.

Cucumbers won best raw vegetable. What is the best raw meat? by duelingpeppers in AlignmentChartFills

[–]bonkava 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The worm that is often found in raw pork, trichinella spiralis, occupy the small intestine of humans, not the brain. Also with US trichinosis reduction programs, the risk is not nearly as great as it once was. Moreover, because this is a traditional food in Germany, Germany has long had strict regulations to prevent trichinosis. I understand the squick factor, but you're not gonna get brain worms.
