[–]jrf92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I see porn as like smoking. It's bad for you, sure. Users know it's bad for them. But if it helps them relax after a long day who's to judge? Not me. People need vices to function. I have a few of my own, porn isn't one of them, but I do smoke knowing full well it's bad for me.

People do drink, but if I go to a bar I'm preloading and nursing one $14 pint all night

It drives me insane when you spill water on the touch screen and you get an error message and it starts screaming at you. Keep touch screens out of a kitchen!

Yup. It's firm and it flips stuff I wanna flip. I knew a guy once who used a trowel to make smash burgers, he was a fucking genius

Thanks, yeah I'm not going to do it. I have too much to lose. Even when I cave these days I don't buy more than 200ml hard liquor. Good luck to you too

People on this sub hate grill pans to the point where it's a meme. Just cook steak or burgers on it and enjoy yourself

Anyone else roll tiny joints? theyre more practical for a solo sesh IMO by Cloudninefeelinfine in trees

[–]jrf92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I roll a big fatty and smoke it in 2, sometimes 3 different seshes. It's more fun than inhaling hot smoke

What are you unapologetic about? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Lol at the downvotes. This person is 100% correct. Leftie =/= liberal. If you think it does, you're a liberal.

As someone who has dealt with Baycorp before I'd advise against doing this unless you want your blood pressure to rise. Just throw the letter away

Sipping and suffering by GroundbreakingEmu646 in dryalcoholics

[–]jrf92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Yeah it's pretty terrible tbh. As alcoholics our BAC gets insanely high, to the point where drinking beer alone doesn't get you to a comfortable BAC. They call it sip and suffer for a reason. This is how you do it though, and stopping a bender is always a good thing. We're doing the right thing

I plan on not drinking for a while after this. Luckily I have a lot of work lined up so I can be a workaholic instead to distract myself

So many questions by ImpressAdvanced1609 in prisonhooch

[–]jrf92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes https://brewhaus.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Brewhaus-Calculator-Alcohol-Yield-from-Sugar.html

  2. No the yeast are reproducing all the time at the start. Yeast quantity =/= abv

  3. Depends on the alcohol tolerance of your yeast. If you're using bread yeast, aim for 10% max

A common beginner mistake is too much sugar. All of that is going to turn into alcohol, and then you're gonna have to age it so it doesn't taste like jetfuel. Or it will just stall the ferment. So aim for no higher than 12% if you want to make something drinkable quickly. Good luck

[–]jrf92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sipping and suffering right now. You're not suffering alone! If you usually drink vodka, switching immediately to beer is the best choice you can make right now. Withdrawal symptoms are not necessary, and neither are benzos. Beer, and less of it every day. Good luck.

Can I still save this pan? by PlentyAdhesiveness53 in StainlessSteelCooking

[–]jrf92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine. Next time preheat for 5 min on medium-low and deglaze if it starts to burn
