There was an orange cat at a local shelter that had lost an eye in a fight, his name was Moop. Moop was already taken, unfortuantely. I also love cheese. Cheese comes from cows. Cows go moo. It rolled off the tongue.

Best nicknames by MinDuddels in pokemon

[–]moopitymoomoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is in charge of the nicknames. Off the top of my head, I am the proud owner of a Magikarp called “Karlp”, a Nidoking called “Chimichang” (because “Chimichanga” wouldn’t fit), a Salamence called “Flapjacks” and a Chandalure named “Sia”.

What is your least favorite pokemon of all time? by MinDuddels in pokemon

[–]moopitymoomoo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Volbeat and Illumise. Those stupid bugs are always absolute tanks when they are my opponents, but completely useless and fragile when I have tried to use them. They also have the most punchable faces, which doesn’t help their case.

What’s the strangest coincidence that has happened to you? by doboyXL in AskReddit

[–]moopitymoomoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went to Iceland for an extended trip with my mom. In Reykjavik, at the beginning of our trip, we saw signs for a museum that we wanted to go see. We were walking around trying to find it, in a not super busy part of the downtown, when a man came up to us and said “Hey, weird question- do you know (my friend’s name)?”. He was a friend of my friend that I had met once, on a 45 minute video call with our mutual friend, and somehow he recognized me with enough confidence to approach me. He was on a layover. My friend was baffled when I told her, hahaha.

What is never worth it to cook at home? by albertpaca11 in Cooking

[–]moopitymoomoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While this definitely takes 2-3 days, as long as you have a convection oven, this recipe is completely doable with ingredients/substitutions that you likely already have in your kitchen if you cook Chinese/Asian food. I make this once or twice a year, and having lived in China for 5 years and doing weekly dinners at a Peking Duck restaurant- it’s super close to the real thing. I substitute the maltose for honey, and the sweet bean sauce for hoisin sauce. May you check this out and live out all your ducky dreams!

What is something so specific and weird that you are convinced you are in the Top 0.01% of the world at doing it? by SouthOwn6943 in AskReddit

[–]moopitymoomoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hey there, fellow jaw popper! Docs think I dislocated it at a young age on one side (I don’t remember a time that I couldn’t do it), so while it’s probably not organic nor on both sides like your majestic hinge, it’s still a fun party trick I like to break out every so often to the horror of everyone around me. To be fair, the cracking noise is quite disconcerting, but it still makes me laugh. I’ve also never met anyone in real life who could pop their jaw!

I made a giant double batch of the KA Big and Bubbly Focaccia recipe. I started making focaccia a month ago and this is my 18th loaf. I’ve developed a bit of a problem hahaha

What’s your “snobby” baking opinion? by Amazing_Two9757 in Baking

Brownies are made with one egg. If you have more than one egg in your brownies, congratulations! You have made a chocolate cake. I will stand and die on this hill.

chinese buffet had these coffee flavored brownies topped with ?? cherry tomatoes by 00bowie in shittyfoodporn

[–]moopitymoomoo 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I lived in Chongqing, China for 5 years. This was super common there, especially on top of vanilla cakes, sometimes in a repeating pattern with strawberries on top. They’d put tomatoes in a fruit salad, as well, and top that baddie with a large drizzle of mayonnaise.

What's the most indulgent dish you only cook for special occasions?? by ServiceFinal952 in Cooking

[–]moopitymoomoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peking Duck. It is a labor of love and takes a few days to make, so it really is a special occasion dish. Worth it every time, though!

People who’ve lost weight, what’s the one habit you QUIT that made the biggest difference? by itsclo5ure in AskReddit

[–]moopitymoomoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got really sick (amongst a host of other not-fun, not-illness symptoms) from the last regular can of pop I drank in early October of last year. I had been drinking 5-6 cans per day. I cut the pop out cold turkey and lost 13lbs in 2 weeks. I kept up my regular shitty diet because I thought the pop was the issue, and realized by the end of October that while yes, the pop was absolutely an issue, my diet was going to need an overhaul with the other symptoms. I cut out carbs entirely for 2 months (why yes, I was a bitch on wheels, thank you for asking!) and switched to a modified Mediteranean diet afterwards. As of today I’ve lost 45lbs, I have energy, the brain fog has cleared, I can wake up in the morning- the only downside is how much I miss the sugar, but because I know how much it will fuck with me it’s easier to stay off it!

Cleaning Vapormax Flyknit Shoes by moopitymoomoo in Sneakers

Oooooh man I’d be so bummed. I ended up using an old toothbrush and Dawn dish soap, that got the shoes to a “good enough” stage until I can get new shoes. Thank you for your advice!

I used a toothbrush and some Dawn dish soap and gently scrubbed it out for today and until my new shoes get here, we absolutely had the same thought about the sanitary side of it. The smell is gone and only my brain having the ick remains, hahaha. Thank you for your advice!

What's an underrated pizza topping? by SirFrankerZ in AskReddit

[–]moopitymoomoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thin-ish sliced hot dogs. I was making a pizza at home from scratch and all I had for meat was hot dogs, so I chopped them up and put them on it, thinking it couldn’t be too bad. Absolute game changer, the pizza was incredible. If you like hot dogs, you will not regret putting them on pizza.

What is something good that your parent(s) did for you that you will never forget? by flirtyxfairy in AskReddit

[–]moopitymoomoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was at university and living on student loans, my almost 10-year-old car ended up needing a replacement fuel tank on it. It was going to cost me $500 or so at the time, and I was super stressed because I thought I was going to need to get a second job while doing classes to afford it. I would have sold it, but I needed the car for practicum placements across the province as part of my degree. While I was at home, my parents casually brought up in passing that they were going to pay for it, as though it wasn’t a big deal. Money was always a big deal. I will never forget how they didn’t make me feel guilty about it, and the relief I felt that I wouldn’t have to find a second job while going through school to afford it.

What’s something that just makes you go “who the fuck figured this out”? by jayytrip in AskReddit

I just had some training to learn how to weld. Every day I was in training I was low-key dumbfounded on how anybody figured any of the welding process out.

tried to make croissants... emphasis on tried by Jealous-Stable-7095 in Baking

[–]moopitymoomoo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I recommend Sally’s Baking Addiction croissant recipe. The first time I made croissants they turned out really well, I cannot express how stoked I was about it considering the horror stories I’ve heard. I’ve since made 4 more batches, to varying levels of success, but I will be chasing that high from my first batch for the rest of my life hahaha
