  • Also, I think mainstream Americans expect people to be bouncy and grinning all the time or else they say you have resting bitch face and a case of the Mondays. In a lot of cultures, grinning at a complete stranger is condescending and makes you look foolish.

  • I used to like donuts, then one day I started making my own frosting and put it on cake and toast and other stuff. Eventually I got tired of it and I haven't wanted donuts since. My theory is that donuts give you just enough frosting to want more but not enough to be satisfying, so you keep eating those blobs of deep-fried bread hoping to get enough frosting.

  • When my BFF's cat died, they were crying, upset, completely disconsolate. I was a bit suprised that they were even sadder than when their father had died. They said: "it's because my cat never told me I was doing everything wrong."

    Likewise, there's a saying along the lines of: every man is a hero to his dog. Some people talk to plants, or hug stuffed animals. So I think there's value to that kind of relationship. Obviously if you ONLY talk to plants or stuffed animals then you might get a little weird, but otherwise it seems OK.

  • In ancient Rome, geese are credited by the historian Livy for giving the alarm when Gauls invaded (see Battle of the Allia).[9][10][11] Geese were subsequently revered in the supplicia canum annual sacrifice, and the Romans later founded a temple to Juno, to whom the geese were considered sacred.

  • I suspect comment-OP just lives somewhere that giving teens sex education is considered odd and unethical. Unsurprisingly, teenage pregnancy is often the result, so with good intentions they are giving the best advice they have.

  • In general, I use the simplest technology that does the job. So it really depends on what you're generating names for. A lot of times, just selecting items from a list of firstnames and lastnames is enough.

  • FWIW I had a similar experience, and just switched to oatmilk. I only use it for breakfast cereal, so I don't notice a difference.

    (I've heard almond milk is good too, but I believe almond growers take up a disproportionate amount of water.)
