I wake up hungry, spend the day hungry, and go to bed hungry. I have two states: hungry and so full I am borderline nauseous.

I wish I could downvote twice.

However, I regularly make my family breakfast-for-dinner, so it’s more my love for all breakfast foods than when it’s eaten.

Edit: just kidding on the downvoting, I didn’t downvote for real. Just saw you were negative and didn’t want you to think I was serious.

Could just as easily do like I do for my family:

“You wanted bagel with cream cheese, right?”

“I only have time for half.”

“Then take the other half with you, it’s hand-held food. The whole point is you can take it to go.”

“They don’t allow food on the bus.”

“Whatever, I’ll eat the other half. Have a good day. BOY! DID YOU FINISH YOUR WAFFLE WITH PEANUT BUTTER? I NEED YOU TO SIT ON THE POTTY SO FINISH YOUR BREAKFAST! Oh, hey, did you want toast or english muffin or something, Hon?”

“Nnnnnnhghh… just coffee…”

“It’s already out to cool down, there on the stove. I WILL THROW OUT THAT WAFFLE IF YOU DON’T FINISH IT WE HAVE TO GOOOO!”

I feel like that would get the “breakfast is happening” vibe out there.

I am certain it’s a matter of different times and all that, but each of those women seems awesome and all of the guys seem kind of pathetic. In all of those, the guy seemed like he had the least to offer.

Eastern Washington people have been wanting to separate from Western Washington for a really long time. Western Washington is like “well fuckin do it.” But nobody actually tries to secede because EW’s dependent on WW’s economy.

Even with my youngest (5), I would always use the bathroom early and check to see if they had a changing station prior to him potentially pooping himself. The majority of the time there was, but the times there wasn’t was often enough to make it worth checking. Only if my wife was with us, though, otherwise it was a roll of the dice.

Look, I’m no Christian, but I can point to the obvious answer to this:

Slavery is part of the free will of humans. It’s humans doing things to other humans, in which God will, in general, not intervene. It all stems from the original sin and humanity as a whole living with the consequences of its (as a whole) actions. It’s such an easy, toss-away answer to give for the absolute worst of human evil and a supposed loving God’s complacency, but it’s there, and it’s easy.

I prefer Stephen Fry’s example for condemnation:

“Yes, the world is very splendid but it also has in it insects whose whole lifecycle is to burrow into the eyes of children and make them blind. They eat outwards from the eyes. Why? Why did you do that to us? You could easily have made a creation in which that didn’t exist. It is simply not acceptable.”

Also:

"I would say: ‘bone cancer in children? What’s that about?’

“Because the God who created this universe, if it was created by God, is quite clearly a maniac, utter maniac. Totally selfish. We have to spend our life on our knees thanking him?! What kind of god would do that?”

That’s not a matter of free will. That’s a matter of creating a world that is hostile to those who are innocent, even without the iniquity of Man.

I’m only happy when it rains.

I’m only happy if it’s complicated.

And though I know you can’t appreciate it,

I’m only happy when it rains.

You know I love it when the news is bad.

Why it feels so good to feel so sad?

I’m only happy when it rains.

A lot of people hate on Sword Art Online, but in the second season…

I’m gonna blow your mind here:

Cinnamon rolls (like the Pillsbury pre-made dough ones) in a Belgian waffle maker (the deep ones like they have at hotel lobbies).

Squish one per corner in there, cook it like normal (maybe pull it earlier, gotta trial and error the time), and pop them out.

The outside is crispy, the inside is soft, and the icing stays in the little pockets so you can eat them with your hands without making a mess.

You’re welcome.

My favorite part is “Eat shit and die” is addressed to the enlisted (“excuse me” being the replacement) and “Eat shit and die, motherfucker” is addressed to officers (“excuse me, Sir”), because you wouldn’t be saying “sir” to enlisted members.

Ideally, yes, but that would create other issues. If there is a hard line for it (like the death penalty for those 14) and no chance of a lighter sentence, juries may be disinclined to convict (and prosecutors to charge) on those charges knowing it is the only outcome.

Gonna has to go piece by piece through this:

obviously everyman has had a dick in his hand for obvious reasons.

This line is trans-exclusive, which would probably be given a pass by all but the most ardent trans-inclusive commenters, but still not great.

And all females

Dude. There are some times when an argument is made that saying “females” is not inherently objectifying, especially in a scientific, military, or other setting where people are categorized that way, with the significant difference being consistency (e.g. man/woman, male/female, etc). Using one then the other strips all that away and makes it seem like referring to women as “females” is just your normal tendency, which strongly suggests the objectifying behavior.

And all females old enough for sexual interactions have had one in their hand.

This is just obviously wrong, as plenty of lesbians, asexual people, or those with lack of access to sexual connections with others have not had a dick in their hands, and that is not an insignificant percentage of women, I’d imagine.

The next time I shake the hand of a woman I am going to wonder how many dicks she has had in that hand.

As if to underline the “females” comment, it’s pretty telling that you feel it worth mentioning that you’re going to wonder how many dicks were in the hands of women, but not men (especially funny since any man you meet has most likely had a dick in his hand more recently than a woman).

Sometimes it is difficult to notice your own biases, so I hope this makes you think about what leads you toward thinking like this, and just general self-reflection.

You’ll never do what common people do.

Honestly, that sounds like some refreshing fun. Have the cook with a big grill out front, and putting in the order is just chatting with them.

“Hey, bud, you want a burger, hot dog, steak, or some of this brisket I been smoking since this morning? Want something to drink? There’s beer and soda in the cooler, or we got tap water. The little cooler has juice for the little’uns.”

And then have a cashier keep track of what they had, conveyor-belt sushi style. The cook chats with whoever is standing around drinking a beer with them (and is drinking beers or soda or whatever all shift), and everything gets served on paper plates. And the tables are all those wooden picnic tables with cheap plastic tablecloths.

And those who are eating there are encouraged to stand around and chat with other people as well (if they want). Just make the whole thing like a backyard barbecue with your neighbor Hank.

And hire nothing but retired men and women working part time as the cooks. Nothing but grill daddies and mommies, working just for some extra cash and the fun of barbecuing. I would take that job when I retired in an instant.

Edit: better yet, make it habachi-style, where there’s a grill daddy/mommy for every group or two, set up like a park barbecue. I love this and want to go to one or work at one now.

The Battlefield 1 trailer.

I had never played a Battlefield game, and that trailer got me pumped enough to buy it at launch. Also, WWI was such an interesting (and horrifying) war.

That (the “crucifact” thing) is actually an excellent response to the stupid “it’s the Theory of Evolution. It’s just a theory!”

Because it makes about as much sense.

I’ll add that this is practically impossible to replicate in adult life until you get into a “retirement community”.

Small disagreement (that shows how possible it is if effort was made to make it happen): I’m in the military, live in military housing (sizes of which are largely based on family size, up to a certain point… 3 bedroom for my wife, 2 kids and me, but 4 bedroom for the families with 6 goddamn kids omigod I can’t imagine), walk to work and the galley (cafeteria-type place for meals, including for dependents), am surrounded by families with similar lifestyles and kids, have two workout spaces on base (as well as access to off-base gyms and pool through my work), and am a short walk to downtown with plenty of entertainment (and most decent sized military bases have similar situations on base itself).

So it’s possible, you just have to sign your body and will away. Or, like, convince a developer to make a civilian equivalent you can just buy into, like an uber-HOA.

If you don’t believe that the cunty “ur not irish m8” attitude is borne of hatred for Americans… Show me the hoards of Englishmen, even, being told the same.

Wait… the Irish hate Americans more than the English now? Daaaamn. I mean, not like we don’t deserve it, but so do they.

That’s literally why my several members of my family voted for Trump. They really don’t like Trump (they voted for Nikki Haley in the primaries), but they really like Vance and hope he’ll take over at some point.

I was blown away, because I was under the impression that Vance was fairly universally disliked. I immediately responded with some equivalent of “clearly we watch very different news.”
