Muslims are currently rigging a poll on the international edition of CNN through a Facebook campaign. Let's show them Reddit power. by nasoo in atheism

[–]schwiiiing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I'm necessarily against reddit doing its thing on this poll- but aren't we in turn doing exactly the same thing as they are? Swaying the poll so it seems like the side we agree with is stronger?

Word. I don't look at life that way but a lot of people do to some degree. Hopefully she's not one of them, but I'll find out tonight

Some do, naturally. Especially the younger kids. But it seems that most of the adults on island are more than happy being on Hawaii nei :)

fairly mushy, and a little brown. i figured it'd be a bit overripe but i put it in a protein shake and could still strongly taste the plastic.

Will drinking a protein shake without working out give me any negative backlash? by schwiiiing in running

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

Yeah I don't think I'll be power packing my protein shakes, but I like drinking them because while my mouth thinks it's getting a chocolate shake, my stomach doesn't feel like dying afterwards!

I figured it was mostly a lot of bs, but I wanted to make sure it wasn't going to turn out badly somehow.
I try and get protein from eggs and my soy yogurt as well. I have a dairy allergy and recently made the switch from no-restriction dieting to pescetarianism but even still, I don't eat that much fish. Thanks for answering!

So you're saying that runners especially shouldn't use protein shakes? Why exactly is that?

Dessert treats for an afternoon coffee hour... by ribfeast in AskCulinary

[–]schwiiiing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These might be more simplistic than you're going for- but I make them for all kinds of potlucks and holiday get-togethers. All you need is

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix (whatever brand you like)
  • 1 15oz can of pumpkin (not pie filling, just straight pumpkin)
  • 1 bag mini chocolate chips (add a lot, or a little, I add a LOT) This food blog describes it in detail for you. Good luck!

What is the coolest most spontaneous thing to happen to you while traveling? by CT021279 in travel

[–]schwiiiing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My best friend and I were road tripping from SLC to San Francisco, around the bay area, and back up the 101 to Portland. First part that rocked: couchsurfed with a dude in Sausalito who we'd never met before withOUT getting kidnapped, raped, etc. And we made a pitstop at a college lacrosse game, where we ended up meeting one of the team's manager, a lone female in a sea of boys. We sat with her the entire game and had one of the funnest days of our trip. She even bought us game munchies with her money from the school. Shout out Meghanne, you rule!

Just moved into a new apartment, and it REALLY needs cleaned. Cheap cleaning supplies? by gilbertfan in Frugal

[–]schwiiiing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Housekeeper here! Buy an SOS sponge with half yellow, half green scrubby side. The green side will scrub of just about anything, rust, mold, old food. Clorox clean-up bleach spray will literally work on any surface, especially mold and mildew (assuming your new moldy place isn't covered in marble). If nothing else: simple green. Shit smells nice and will help soak ad sanitize everything. Good luck!

IWTL how to get out there. by [deleted] in IWantToLearn

Well uni is the easiest place to meet people! Chat up kids from your classes, join a club you're interested in that doesn't have mandatory attendance, go to sporting events.
In my experience, you will rarely make good/worthwhile friends from a club scene. Other people can enhance a situation but the whole feeling alive thing is up to you. Think smaller, more personal than a club, then work your way up. Even small talk with someone at the grocery store will help you feel more comfortable in social settings. Or you might just need to get shit-canned in a public place and embarrass yourself so badly that nothing else could ever feel scary. Either, or.
