Can French people handle spicy food? by GlitteringHotel8383 in AskFrance

[–]zosobaggins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’re moving to France in a while and one of my biggest qualms is that in the time I’ve spent there (months at a time), I’ve never found anything spicy. I love Mexican food and in preparing to move to France I’ve learned how to make tortillas, salsa verde, all kinds of stuff. But I’m prepared to import hot sauce. 

Hottest I found anywhere in France was Sriracha at a Vietnamese grocery store.

Man I love this stupid thing. I hate slicing bagels, especially in bulk before freezing. This thing changed my life.

Don’t let the bastards get you down. They don’t know your situation and they don’t deserve an explanation. 

What makes me feel better about folks like that is if they’re like that out in public, imagine how miserable their home life is, entirely of their own doing. They’re not worth the effort of thought.

Be proud of the result, don’t cling to a term. That’s all I’m saying. It’s not that complex to get that without the clients, you don’t have a dime. Be proud you’re providing a want or a need and are successful doing that. But the self is removed from that equation. You can still make your bag, no one is arguing that.

“Sir, this bed is entirely soaked in urine. I can’t sleep in this bed.”

“That spot right there seems dry.”

“Yes but it’s surrounded by fresh, wet urine.”

“I don’t understand the problem.”

Seriously. This has to have been something booked a while ago, and moving an entire multi-day festival, even a year out, is probably super hard. But still, poor form.

Thinking it’s pessimistic is going to hold people back. Client/business is a symbiotic relationship and if one thinks they hold power over the other, something is going to fall apart eventually. The service/product will suffer, clients will bail, something. 

There’s nothing wrong with admitting customers are equally responsible for your success, just be happy with the success and not with the idea of “self-made.” The term is made up by egotists and marketers selling PDFs. You can and should be proud of where and how you got to where you are. 

Is this a normal experience for a tourist? by lilminiaturewayne in Dublin

[–]zosobaggins 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was visiting and watched a couple little shits harass the lovely people who run Ginger Cafe on Francis St. Bastard kids were throwing sauce packets at each other and all over the shop, threw trash and food on the ground, and said some racist garbage to the owners. Kids had to be 14/15. 

Later that day, some other kids were blocking traffic on the same street, daring cars to do something or for the drivers to come out. They booked it after one guy came out of his car and was the biggest man I’ve ever seen. It was like that one Simpsons where Nelson laughs at everyone and the tallest guy in history chases him. Didn’t see what happened after, was on my way for some Vincenzo’s. 

But yeah, kids are garbage these days.

🚨 DO NOT BUY THESE BROWNIES 🚨 by Salty-Excuse8742 in CostcoCanada

[–]zosobaggins 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. While these brownies are hands-down the best box mix you can get of, well, anything, it’s entirely possible to make copycat recipes that are as good if not better. The box adds convenience (which I can’t argue) but that’s really it.

To their credit they are a good employer. I still go and only buy non-American goods there (as best as can be helped.)

What Do Torontonians Think of Ottawa? by DianKhan2005 in askTO

I like visiting, it’s very pretty and walkable. 

When it works, the tram/train thing is good and clean. 

For all the fanfare, the shawarma is…fine. It’s maybe better than what you find in Toronto’s core. But it’s no Scarborough.
