mooyashi posted:All of those things as separate entities sound like Good Cool Things that, when bunched together within proximity of the dwellings of the people running them seems insufferable. I can only air my white bougieness in small doses. It's fine if you are an old man in some small town who is carrying on the tradition of hand making some thing or confection and you've been doing it for 60 years like your father and his father before him. It is not cool when it is a 19 year old piece of poo poo whining about how nothing is authentic anymore and we just need to get back to the old ways and your way to do this is to make gumcutting hunks of inedible hard candy at 100x the effort and cost of modern means.

I do find it hilarious that we've come to 30-40 year olds saying "kids these days" about them doing things in the manner of their grandparents. What a time to be alive.

Remember how there was a D&D thread not too long ago where people were positing that there are no such things as hipsters, and they're just a creation of the media? Good tiiiiiimes...

i think hating on hipsters is kind of sad, much like it was sad when people hated on [enter previous sub/counter-culture here]. they're just people trying to find authenticity and meaning outside the mainstream norm, a norm that violently crushes the will and individuality of most people. it's a fool's quest, because they're looking for authenticity and meaning in all the wrong places - instead of finding some sort of inner peace and finding their place in the world, they identify as a negative - they aren't part of the mainstream - or long for an idealised notion of society that probably never existed. often, their rebellion merely changes the surface but plays right into the capitalist/consumerist/whatever system. they're right to rebel, but if their intended goal really is authenticity and meaning, they'd be much better off with an internal rebellion, which, even if it doesn't form a platform for external chance, will at least give them a sense of peace. the ironic part is, of course, that even their failed and misguided attempts at breaking from the mainstream are viciously attacked and capitalised on because society can't tolerate it. oh well. e: oh we're talking about döners now. döners are very good. i like döners. another good thing is a dürüm. they are also good.

Warcabbit posted:You get better MPG on ethanol-free, too. BrandorKP posted:Need it for marine engines. Also you want ethanol free for small engines like mowers, lawn tractors, or weedeaters. They'll run with 10% ethanol, but they run crappy after a while because of it. Thanks, I figured there wouldn't be a market if there wasn't a legitimate reason for it, but I wouldn't have guessed people would put coal in their engines just to piss off liberals either. And yeah, I know biofuel isn't great but I know people who think that because it comes from a plant and is a relatively new thing and isn't oil it must be some hippie nonsense.

It's particularly funny here when we have a generation of Thai hipsters though, because they hold farmers markets and artisanal fairs and it's a Goddamn developing country that depends largely on agriculture and I guarantee you 75% of these people have never met a farmer.

Majorian posted:Watch it or we'll let Michael Bay make another "Transformers" movie. I am not a movie snob but I couldn't even make it through the first one, I made it to that scene where they're hiding outside the house and the dog pees on one of their feet and I was like gently caress THIS. I also hate the movie Garden State but I watched the whole thing. Dallas Buyers Club also sucked from a reality and political (libertarian / anti-science-establishment) perspective. Obviously there are worse movies out there but those are the three that most stick in my craw. I am NOT on the same page with ReindeerF in that I like California Mexican food more than Tex-Mex. They are both good though.

John Hodgman had an interesting spiel about this in an interview I heard him in once, about how much American dietary habits changed in the post-war period. Suddenly, the cuts of meat that had been previously reserved for the rich became much more mainstream, because every man was a king in his prefab castle. Eating viscera, on the other hand, was completely abandoned by the middle class.

And sailors (atleast US flag) eat incredibly well, like lobster, crab, and steak well. Buncha things are mandated to be served X number of times a month by ILA union contracts.
