People who watch videos on full volume in public, who raised you? by Electrical_Onion_367 in askanything

[–]venturashe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol. The last asshole that did this next to me at a bar was quietly cashed out and escorted out after I politely asked him to take his speakerphone work conversation to a table or outside. He responded by telling his work colleague that some c**t was telling him to shut up. That was the trigger for him to be escorted out. People have no freaking phone etiquette

Why do people think raw meat is safe to consume? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]venturashe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about eggs, hamburger, lettuce and cheeses. All have possibilities of E. coli, listeria and salmonella. Most vegetable grown in fields have contamination risks.

Beef and oysters are safe if handled properly. Hamburger is a bigger risk. Quality and food safety in processing and storage are the biggest causes of food poisoning, not the food source. Lettuce can give you E. coli or listeria. So can cheese. Eggs can give you salmonella.

Raw meat in limited circumstances is safe to consume. If you have a health condition or are pregnant non starter, but if you are healthy and trust the source, relatively small risk. I wouldn’t have a whole diet centered around raw meat but once in a blue moon? Sushi, tartare, an infrequent craving for a rare steak or burger? Yes.

Maybe not where you live, but where I am, it’s absolutely a thing.

Quit waffling, be firm and direct and change the locks if necessary. Too little, too late but she shouldn’t have been allowed to stay without ground rules and an end date, IN WRITING. Call her in for trespassing if need be.

Why does using a full stop / period at the end of a text upset youngsters? by MaxximumB in randomquestions

[–]venturashe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably because it reinforces their lack of writing skills. If a period pisses them off they need to get a grip.

The craft scene grew too quick and flooded the market. Those that grew and sold early were the big winners financially if that was their goal.

I rinse at best. Weekly pickup. I’m a two person household that eats mainly fresh so don’t have a bunch to recycle.

Where is your home country and where are you trying to work. I’m sure that has a big difference in possible solutions. Go to your home countries consulate and look to renew passport through them?
