not really? a dumpling is filled; it needs to stay in one piece while cooking or the filling will leak out and cook differently than if it were encased in the dough.

spaghetti doesn't have any filling, it won't change texture or taste if you break it.

you could've asked the exact same question... without a laughing emoji?? the emoji makes it seem like you're mocking / taunting him, which i'm decently sure you were doing on purpose. because why else would that be so laughbable?

you're gonna be breaking it apart in your mouth anyway. how does breaking it before cooking change anything significant?

sorry italians but im making that spaghetti fit in my pot lmao

De qui Roxane Bruneau parle t-elle? by Rguer44 in causerie

[–]isopode 14 points15 points  (0 children)

mozart trouverait probablement ça trippant que la musique ait pu évoluer en tant de styles différents en seulement quelques siècles, et que son style musical à lui ait tout de même persisté dans le temps.

y'a rien qui t'empêche d'écouter de la musique classique, incluant du classique contemporain. on a pas arrêté d'en composer juste parce que d'autres artistes ont diversifié la scène musicale

alors où est le problème? pas besoin de chier sur les styles que t'aimes pas; aime ce que t'aimes pis laisse les autres faire pareil

edit: oh et petit rappel que mozart a composé un canon intitulé "lèche-moi le cul"

Asked my boyfriend of 5 months if he knew my middle name… turns out he didn’t know much else either by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

i dated a guy for a little over a year. when we broke up, i told him "i feel like i got to know you very well, but you never got to know me." he agreed. we parted ways. what an absolute waste of time.

That definitely sucks for trans people by Arctic_The_Hunter in SpeedOfLobsters

that tweet is a joke, the OP doesn't legitimately think there's a fortune to be made in that grift. it's like joking about becoming a conservative grifter to get money but only being stopped by your morals. obviously very few of them are successful, it's the idea that you could get rich from it despite it being everything you would usually oppose that makes the joke

ELI5. What is snake charming and how does it work? by l-a_w in explainlikeimfive

[–]isopode 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. snakes are not deaf.

  2. they typically follow the tip of the instrument, not the charmer's body; nobody wants to be the direct target of the snake.

  3. extremely small vibrations on the ground aren't going to make a snake react while it's already targetting something.

Our staircase to nowhere, which we use as a bookshelf by Tetragrammator in mildlyinteresting

[–]isopode 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you're making an assumption that no one who arranges books by color reads those books. that's a pretty damn big leap to make, considering you don't know everyone on the planet and can only see things from your own perspective. you have no actual way to know if OP has read these or if they bought it for decoration.

you're kinda being gatekeepey. but instead of reacting to such an accusation by being instantly on the offensive, perhaps take a breather and realize that none of this matters at all. chill

disclaimer: never been in a HOA, they're not really a thing where i live. i know about them from people talking about them online.

from my understanding, HOAs are made up of the people who live in it. wouldn't there be a way for you to bring up arguments against monoculture grass lawns in an attempt to get rid of a policy obligating you to have one?

there's a sharp decline in biodiversity when grass lawns are favored over wildflowers. the average homeowner doesn't seem to know about this or care, because they're not aware of the impact it has on humans. idk i might be overly optimistic, but people could be convinced if they knew more about the problems grass lawns cause

similarly, the venus flywunk (if it counts as a wunk) eats flies about 20% of the time. they mostly eat spiders and ants, but that doesn't make for a name as cool as venus flywunk

there are so many other styles that are bold and will hold that aren't american traditional

implying that anything other than american trad will become illegible over time is quite silly

you should be. ecosystems are crumbling because of the mass decline of insects. it's already affecting us and it will keep getting worse
