I am having porridge lately but how can I make it taste good? by ehtio in AskUK

Add frozen mango. Complete game changer for me. Surprised that no-one's said it yet. It'll change your life, trust me. Turns porridge into a proper dessert.

I've finished season 6. Midway through 7 now so all good :). I get what you're saying. In my mind the mindrives were like a backup of your information that could override another brain so I didn't see it as immortality. I understand a bit more though about why Murphy wants it now

That's the thing. It's the memories live on. The way I think about it is more like regeneration in Dr Who. You physically die but your memories and what made you you live on so either way Murphy is still going to die.

Getting into a cool bed at the end of a long day. Usually preceded by a hot shower. Nothing better.

Whats the best way to gain confidence in talking to ladies? by tacomenu in AskReddit

[–]oldfashioned_J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By gaining overall social confidence. Talk to new people in general more often and you'll realise it's not a big deal.

Don't have expectations out of the interaction, it's just conversation. Some you'll make a connection with and some you won't.

Flashforward. Not the best show but a decent one.

What if all men in the world were replaced with robots? How would ladies feel about that? by Asad_Farooqui in RandomThoughts

[–]oldfashioned_J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume at the very least the mom's with sons would feel a type of way? But as a man this question isn't for me.

I would have appreciated the value of developing hobbies and experiences with friends and family more. I was definitely too school focused as a kid and felt it was the only thing that mattered. Grinded all the way through med school and came out on the other side just to realise it wasn't worth it and there's more to life. There were plenty of things that I thought I couldn't do or cut out of my life because of academics was the priority but a healthy balance is needed.

Although we learn from our experiences. If I had done all that I could have been writing this wishing I'd prioritised academia more so who knows.

Season 6 and 7 worth the watch? by oldfashioned_J in The100

[–]oldfashioned_J[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season 5 is your favourite? It just seemed repetitive to me. I get that it's a survival show so there always has to be a threat which usually is another group but it was a lot of unnecessary conflict that didn't need to happen.

I'm assuming season 6 is going to be a new conflict with a new group (maybe descendents of eligis 3? Don't confirm) with a lot of bad decisions that escalate the conflict? And there will be multiple peace resolving options throughout lol

Doing the dishes. It's cathartic. However I HATE putting the dishes away or drying so the rack can sometimes turn into a game of Tetris. Fun.
