  1. Yeah, everybody pronounces my name wrong. It's especially obnoxious that one supervisor at work is always yelling my last name over the intercom while she just uses some people's first names. Edit: Oh, SPELLS, I thought it said "says". Nobody really spells my name wrong, it's just the pronunciation.
  2. Something I've been wanting to read for a while is Howl's Moving Castle.
  3. I've read both. I'd reread A Wizard of Earthsea.
  4. Yeah, I hate for anybody to be in a public bathroom with me to begin with. The way some guys sit on the toilet Grunting and growling and hyperventilating. You're just pooping, shut up!
  5. I think tolerating other humans is just really difficult in general. Just grabbing one that you find somewhere to live with forever is pretty crazy when you think about it.
  6. My grandparents and my old dogs.
  7. Heresy!!! (Kidding. I know people either love it or hate it, no in between.) I never used to like yogurt but I started liking it a while ago so that's one healthy thing I like. I think it's healthy... In my observations of other people's romantic relationships the evidence shows that they're almost always a disaster. Huge cost in money, sanity, and time, No matter what people want to believe they virtually all end eventually. So many middle aged divorces throwing people's lives into chaos. I'll just stick with romantic fantasies and good romances in sci-fi and fantasy books(Not the romantasy stuff, just romance in regular sff.).
  8. I miss this stuff so much! WHY don't they have it all the time????? Don't know if anybody remembers these. They were delicious! These were the best oreos ever!
  9. What was your experience with tripe? I got some once on a whim(because in Star Trek it's Bregit Lung.) and looked up how to cook it. All the recipes said to boil it for two hours. I figure okay, it's organ meat, I guess you have to do that for safety. After two hours of boiling it was literally like rubber. I could not even chew it. I cut a piece, chewed it and chewed it and made no progress. I finally just swallowed a couple of small pieces whole and threw the rest away. It was pretty expensive too for one of the garbage parts of the animal. They're good but really pretty similar to chicken.
  10. Me too, but my cursive is even worse unless I wrote really slow.
  11. I think the best teacher would: 1. Make learning fun and interesting. 2. Make it visual, and hopefully interactive, not just lecture. 3. Not give homework. If the learning is engaging, it's not necessary. I've had a few really good teachers. Almost all had some homework but they were entertaining and made things interesting.
  12. I've heard that strawberries were better a long time ago before they were selectively bred to be bigger. And I know there are different species but the ones from grocery stores that I've had don't impress me at all. Tomatoes are another thing I'm not big on so I've never really compared different kinds. I like them in things and I love ketchup, spaghetti sauce, etc. but I've never compared different kinds of tomatoes.
  13. Coffee, like alcohol, is a social thing. Neither tastes good but people force themselves to like it because if you don't you're a pariah. I've never tried to like either because I just don't care. I don't completely hate them but something I think is massively overrated is strawberries. The flavor's nothing special and you have to dump a ton of sugar on them to make them palatable. The only other fruit I can think of that needs added sugar is lemons but lemonade is really delicious. Strawberry juice, no thanks.
  14. Yeah, probably. Those movies were popular so they're probably hoping to cash in on it. I really hope it's good. I'm mad about the end of G5 too but I don't think this movie is to blame.
  15. I just realized the threads with a star in front of them are ones I've posted in, ones with a circle I haven't. Mind blown.
  16. Yeah, gingerbread is just uniquely christmasy. I've always wanted to have the time to design and build a gnigerbread house from scratch. Those kits they sell are terrible.
  17. This. Excuse me, I have to go vomit now.
  18. In theory I can appreciate that people like watching but I don't see why it matters so much that people they've never met won or lost a game. I think it's especially funny when fans say "we won!" Really? You were playing? Exactly! Alcohol is stuff that's been left to rot, it's just disgusting. People convince themselves that it tastes good because they like how it makes them stupid.
  19. Bagel bites have a better crust. I haven't had any of those in a long time.
