vanilla ice cream is best. vanilla isnt a boring flavor, people just think that because it's just a plain cream color, the vanilla plant has a completely unique flavor thats a lot more subtle than strawberry or chocolate. a lot of vanilla ice cream that you can buy in the store sucks rear end though and barely has any real vanilla flavor

Of course the guy who thinks blowjobs are too weird would be a big fan of literal vanilla.

You know what's a really good combination? Mint Chocolate Chip + Butterscotch. You can substitute caramel and it's also good, but butterscotch is the realness.

I agree with this, although I love all ice cream flavours the only one I would never have to be 'in the mood' for is vanilla

Vanilla is a complementary flavor. It needs toppings or a second flavor to mix with.

I checked a couple of cities in the midwest and the east coast at random and it looks like they've got pretty good coverage. They're something like the 50th biggest dairy processor country in the country so I'm not really surprised.

Always been a big fan of their ice cream.

I find that with icecream, I just really like the super artificially bubblegum flavored stuff more than the higher-end stuff. I mean, for sure, there's good chocolate and bad chocolate and good and bad quality strawberry and w/e, but more than the fancy stuff and w/e I just want blue and pink twirly tutti-fruity and with the cheap syrup-y caramel goop and sprikles on it

i dont know what you call it in English, but the pink goop made from eggs, i want that all over my icecream, as well.

Sometimes you just want whatever, of course, but if i could only have one style of icecream then i'd be an easy call for me to decide on the stuff that looks like toxic plastic and sort of taste like licking a bubblegum wrapper

My English isn't good for foodstuff and recipes, but I'll try to explain the pink goop made from eggs that is put on icecream, and also sometimes as filling in some style of chocolate tops, but I imagine you probably have it, but I just don't know the word.

Anyway, it is made by boiling lots of sugar in little water, so you get syrup and then it must cool. Then you whip eggwhites in the ratio of half as much weight of eggwhites as the sugar. Perhaps for a batch to multiply you could use 1dl of water and then 200g of sugar and 100g of egg whites. you whip the egg whites until they are stiff and then you slowly pour the syrup on the eggwhites and continue whipping and then you end up with a fluffy topping which is sort of a goopy candyfloss; come to think of it, it is probably for most purposes candyfloss, but with different texture, which is not common here but I've seen it in movies. regardless, you usually make a strawberry syrup as the base, or if a shop makes it they will use some kind of dangerous chemical instead of strawberries, which creates the lovely pink colour either way.

I'm sure I've brought this up before in this exact thread but I genuinely enjoyed Ringo's solo career. There's just something that's so Earnest and yet stiff about everything that he does it's so charming.

His son is a very good drummer too, so much so that he played for The Who during their 50 year anniversary tour.

EDIT - He's been playing with them since 1996???!?

Only the dead can know peace from these hats.
If the internet as it is today was around when the Beatles were popular, it would be full of the same kind of hatred towards them that most boy bands that are popular with teen girls get now. Sure they got more experimental further down the line, but they were essentially the One Direction of the 60s

if you make a song, and in the lyrics of the song you talk about how you made the song, or music in general like "the beats" or "the bass", you hosed up.

if your song has a bridge where it's just a bunch of boring filler, you hosed up.

Nah talking about beats or bass is fine if the beats/bass are ok.

but

If you brag about drinking/smoking weed/drugs, your song sucks. It's uniformly the worst part of most rap and country and the biggest signifier that the singer is a 19 year-old who got lucky and has nothing to share. This can be offset if the beat or construction is good enough, but being real it's almost never good enough. It can also be offset if you've actually going a thematic point to the subject like how the substances are a crutch or communicate what the drug is like (good trap music does this). Instead you could at least talk about loving. loving implies some level of effort and achievement at getting another human being to do something with you. All drug/alcohol talk does is say "I had money and time."

To be honest I'm not sure I've ever seen that variety, but if I had then yeah, I would have assumed that "strawberries and cream" meant something different than "strawberry" since, in every other instance I've ever encountered that combination of words, it does. Because of how there's two extra words there. Why would you label it "strawberries and cream" if it's just strawberry? That's just dumb.
