I am definitely a cismale but I also don't have any attachment to masculine pronouns other than it's what I"ve used my whole life. I'd much rather just default to a pronoun that means "person" independent of gender -- that isn't 'they/them' because it's confusing and if someone tells me they use 'they/them' pronouns, I'm going to assume they're either nonbinary or trans, not that they just don't want to conform to gendered pronouns. I use pronouns in bios because I think it's a good move toward normalizing awareness of pronoun diversity and identity, but it is true that it can also reinforce the stress and obstacles to one who may be transitioning or about to transition. credburn has a new favorite as of 17:30 on Jun 29, 2022 |

Seems like a lot of condiments come in squeeze bottles nowadays that have no business being in squeeze bottles. Real mayo is way too thick for that, you have to cut open the bottle to get the last 1/4 of it out. Relish doesn't squeeze out evenly, you have to spread it out with a fork, so in that case its just as easy to get it out of the jar with a fork.

I have some spicy mayo that I'll need to cut open to get a lot of it out. Its very thick. The edge of a butter knife is too narrow. You can fit more on a fork so you don't have to get multiple scoops out of the jar.

poo poo, I misread that. Ketchup and mustard would be the two that immediately come to mind. You just have to store them upside down in the fridge to get it all.

I use a spoon to spread practically everything, as butter knives are a crap utensil for just about everything but melty butter.

One of my friends is SO sweet and generous but always offers things in the form of 'lmk if there's ever like anything you want bc I'd love to gift it to you' I was so conditioned growing up to never ask for anything that I simply Am Not Gonna take her up on it even though I know she'd be thrilled to get to follow through!!

Easier to say "no thanks, it's ok" than deal with overbearing control freaks who don't understand what "gifting" means.

Great when I was a young stoner and still kinda cool that my birthday is basically a minor holiday up here in Portland, but on to the pet peeve: "You know Hitler was born on 4/20?" No, you are the first person to tell me that. There definitely hasn't been 100 people before you telling me that.

Shibawanko posted:it doesnt belong in restaurant food. its like ordering steak and getting spam Spam is better than steak, especially fried. My peeve is when people will chew through like, burnt ends from brisket and be like "yum, so good cow, way better than some tender barbecue sauce laden pulled pork, that would be gross, i have adult taste, hating my meal is profound" e: more phuo than peeve but steak is far and away the most overrated meat from the most insufferable people. Give me a chicken breast slathered in ranch dressing and cholula, I don't care, anything but a boring middle-aged dad's loving godawful steak (RARE NOT WELL DONE) Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 17:12 on Jul 2, 2022 |

In my area Spam is currently almost double the price (per ounce) of just buying pork chops and the mental gymnastics happening is some real poo poo.

Brawnfire posted:My plate has both and ribs and smoked chicken too Which reminds me of a peeve. Guest: Are you sure this is cooked? It looks pink. Me: That happens when you smoke meat. I cooked that for over two hours and used a probe to make sure it was done. It's fine, I promise. Guest: Are you sure? Me: Yes. Absolutely. Guest then eats less than a quarter of the meat on their plate. Goddamn! I brined it overnight, then smoked it. Do not waste my 16 hours of effort because you are used to overcooked oven charred meat. Next time you get a hotdog.

Manager Hoyden posted:Pretty disappointing when someone breaks out the pulled pork at a barbeque Bad pulled pork is bad, yes. Good pulled pork is heavenly. Crock pots need to die out. Nothing ever got better from being cooked in a crock pot. If you want easy fall-apart pork, at least use a pressure cooker instead.

Oh god, some genius decided to try a takeaway smoked BBQ joint up the road from where I live (in semi-rural Tasmania) and this is exactly why it failed. There's no culture of BBQ or smoking meat like in the US, and everyone I heard complaining about them, complained about the 'uncooked' meat. I think they lasted maybe a month.
