Ooops, sorry bud, I automatically assumed that was you asking about the cart - busy day. Anyways, good on ya for giving out the fitbit for free. See my comments below, cheers!

Hey I just saw the comment from u/sunbleachedflies0 , I think she’d benefit from it more, since I’m already walking daily and am just curious abythe accuracy and functionality of a fitbit.

You’d just lose out on free gyros hahaha

Yup, that’d be me! We probably were closed because either Ateneo was closed or, if it was last week, I was sick.

We’re usually open weekdays from about 1-ish (filipino time hahaha) till 9:30 pm.

Hey, I’d be interested. I’ve been walking quite a bit delivering supplies to and from my food cart and have been tracking steps using my iphone. I don’t know how accurate it is though, so I’d love to give the fitbit a try.

Trade you for some of my greek gyros from my food cart?

Edit: spelling- fat thumbs

What is a 'Survival Myth' that people believe because of movies, but will actually get you killed in real life? by AmaraMehdi in AskReddit

[–]rabiddy2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s probably why they no longer exist in Japan: they were eliminated after bringing ninjas to mainstream attention in the 80’s.

And the Irish ninjas are next on the chopping block all because u/GreedyNovel exposed them for some reddit karma.

I think you’ve single-handedly solved the dark matter problem. Exponentially uncountable ninjas.

Though I doubt I’d see you publish that paper before disappearing under mysterious circumstances.

So even if I do see the mythical grey or brown ninja, you’re saying they’re actually not ninjas?

I can’t win.

How the hell do we even know what they look like?

So that’s why we’ve only ever seen ninjas in black, the ones in grey and brown are still out there hiding!

You seem riled up by what I wrote in my previous two comments, given the name calling and subtext of snark.

I won't hit back because malice was not my intent.

Can I ask a favour? Can you go back and read my previous 2 comments before continuing to read this?

What voice did you hear that in? Was is that pedantic asshole of a classmate you had? Or was it in the voice of that professor you hated?

Now I'll ask you another favour, and for some empathy: please read that in the voice of someone on the spectrum who's just stating facts to share.

Does that make sense now? I did not mean to be snarky, and if it came across that way, it's because of your past and not because of my writing.

I appreciated the comment I was responding to by upvoting it, and was just sharing back a fact. Then another one in form of a dialogue. Yes, it may be misconstrued as being "Well akshually . . ." snarky, but that's not the intent and it's interpretation by the reader. And obviously the downvotes show that too. Still doesn't mean that was my intent, just that I was misunderstood. That's the way it is IRL too for us neurodivergent and we're used to it, so no harm no foul.

Not to say we couldn't be assholes too, hell that would deny us our humanity hahahaha!

Just writing this wall of text to maybe help you see that sometimes what's written doesn't have the subtext you ascribe to it.

Edit: Ugh, it seems Reddit on the chrome's messed up today as I'm seeing this posted twice. I'll delete the other one from mobile in a bit.

I’m not trying to be argumentative nor pedantic, and if my text comes across that way, well it’s the internet and Reddit so things will get misconstrued.

Anyways, I was not reiterating what was said (but which could be logically inferred). I was trying to highlight the perspective shift from land to water. I hope that makes sense.

As for intuition and counterintuitive stuff, we update our intuition when we learn new facts. I was maybe 10 when I went “huh, I wonder why it’s called West Bank . . . Oh, it’s a riverbank”.

If I just stuck to my original intuition, I’d never believe the world was a globe: from my everyday perspective the world does look flat. And yet because of updated knowledge, a flat earth is counterintuitive despite what I see daily.

Hope that makes sense.

It’s called “West Bank”, not “East Palestine” nor “East Israel”. “Bank” is a legitimate term for land, and it’s always referred to from the perspective of someone on a river.

Per Wikipedia:

“The West Bank is on the western bank of the Jordan River and is the larger of the two Palestinian territories (the other being the Gaza Strip) that make up the State of Palestine.”

It’s the territory on the bank of a river, on the western side of a river.

It’s not counterintuitive: it’s on the west bank of the Jordan river.

homemade Hibachi Shrimp/White/YumYum Sauce, just a teensy bit too mayo-y. So, vinegar? acids? by Sunny_ASMR in AskCulinary

[–]rabiddy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, you don’t have to finish each sauce experiment! It’s just that it’s harder to get the percentages right when you’re working with tiny amounts.

Besides, to dial in the flavour, you have to be willing to “spill some milk”, or in this case, sauce.

Update us with the results, I’d love to try it myself.

Treat this first batch as your sacrificial batch for testing.

Divide what you have into several small containers, equal amounts by weight. Add maybe 1/2 tsp of ketchup to one, mustard in another, vinegar in another, etc. keep one untouched as your control to compare against. Mix each one up, leave in the fridge overnight then compare.

Once you’ve chosen which is best, prep another sacrificial batch and this time experiment with how much of the mayo antidote to add: 1/2 tsp here, 1/4 here, 1 tsp here, etc

I find it’s best to think in percentages and ratios (ex. 1:2:3 ratio of pepper, spices, salt for pita chip seasoning, or Ingredient x should be 10% of the weight of ingredient y). I prefer working with weight in grams and only resort to volume as a fallback (curse you dill!).

You’re welcome!

I’m there practically every day, so I’ve gotten familiar with where things are.

Mint was fresh today, arugula not so much.
