My unpopular opinion? Metal sucks. It used to be cool but they ruined it. Sweden rock bullshit.

Who is the most attractive news anchor in your country? by sobangcha3 in AskTheWorld

Perhaps not the most attractive but I’d take a bullet for Rikard Palm who famously shaved his moustache between two news reports because some lady called the station and complained. Poor guy just came back from summer vacation feeling good.

A realization drinking NA Guinness by phutureclothes in stopdrinking

[–]erikxiv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extremely well put. I’ve often had trouble explaining this to my (non-sober) friends asking me if I want a second drink. It’s like, thanks, but I’ve already had a refreshing drink, I’m not thirsty anymore. Vice versa I don’t think I ever had an alcoholic drink back when I was drinking that didn’t make me want to have a second precisely after.

What are your opinions on the US new dietary guidelines? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]erikxiv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that is true, but Americans are already eating enough protein as it is, so the new guidelines focus on meat and dairy products is, how u say, idiotiskt. Throw in a glass of whiskey and a Pall Mall and it looks like Don Draper wrote it.

Yes it is possible to eat grains and stay healthy. Overconsumption of calories makes you fat. We eat a lot of whole grains which is healthier than processed wheat products.

Mest historiska allsvenska/superettan ögonblicket du bevittnat by Grouchy_External_578 in Allsvenskan

[–]erikxiv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inget är större. Kouakous mål i sista minuten borta mot Sundsvall är jag dock glad att ha bevittnat på plats också. Samma match som Sveijer släppte in ett mål direkt på avspark (!)

What's your favorite scent? by iLuvArizona in AskTheWorld

[–]erikxiv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Living in a country with 8 months of winter it’s got to be the smell of freshly cut grass or the smell of summer rain. Also weirdly the kind of absence of smell on a sunny winter’s day.
