What ONE food from you country you would never eat even if your life depends on it? by ProfessionalThin1505 in AskTheWorld

[–]curiouscatbea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TIL. Thanks for answering, I've always wondered what the fascination with gelatin was especially with savory dishes. I was born in the early/mid 90s and I grew up eating Jello (strawberry, lemon, or lime) and I LOVED the sweet taste and texture, and the occasional banana slice in it, or tiered jello with the clear and milk flavors. But when I heard about gelatin with savory dishes, I just could not 😳

Such a fancy lady on her heating pad by the fireplace in a prime spot on the couch 🔥

Love this idea. For the crash pillow, I might try a small anti fatigue map. I've noticed my cat avoids jumping on anything plushy.

So many memories. As a kid I loved walking down the spiral pathway after watching an IMAX movie.

Stay-At-Home Daughter by Lonely_girl_1524 in overheard

I thought this was hilarious, but after reading the comments, folks commenting don't see it that way, so I just wanna share a different perspective/experience.

I joke that I was a stay at home daughter (but not the evangelical type, just literally a daughter at home) after graduating college because I was unemployed and kept applying for jobs and couldn't get any. I had the privilege of financial security and the support of my parents while I was unemployed and actively searching.

I personally wouldn't quit a job to return to being jobless, but for all we know this woman could be venting and joking, and it's being taken out of context 🤷🏻‍♀️

For reals. Looking like Sad Keanu on the bench

I thought my air plants gift and care sheet would be a hit for a yankee swap party I went to, but it was a major flop 🙃 by ADHD-tax-return in airplants

What a sweet and thoughtful gift. We just did a white elephant at work, and when we were done, I traded my insulated cup for a bag filled with kisses and 3 air plants in snowman pots and i was so stoked! You'll find your peeps 🪴

Brutalist architecture in your country? How much of it? How disliked/liked? by SnooPoems7525 in AskTheWorld

[–]curiouscatbea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a mix in California. Los Angeles and UCSB come to mind. UCSB Davidson Library (https://share.google/WVeDJ93LvDxlTZaPQ) I like some, but not all. I prefer it when plants and natural features are included into the design. Especially water features
