It is still weird to call that a cum goober but that's a lot better.

This isn't really related to anything, and I've said it before, but I'll always be kinda proud of my mom for giving me the sickest  ever, when she said, just before slamming the door and driving drunkenly away to go do meth with the lady she was cheating on my dad with, "I should have swallowed you!"edit: I guess I talk about my mom's shenanigans a lot. My avatar is something someone bought after I revealed my mother used to call me Nards as a way of embarrassing me in front of company.

do you often find that you're at a party or something and you tell a funny story about your childhood, but instead of laughing, all your friends get really quiet and serious?

My peeve right now is mobile game ads. Why do so many of them now have really hosed up scenarios? I keep getting two sets of ads, one showing a mother and daughter dying if you don't solve the puzzle and another of a small dragon being literally tortured. What the gently caress is wrong with these developers and how are these not super banned?

Tiggum posted:My issue with them is, how come they're allowed to make the button to close the ad so small and hard to hit? I accidentally open the play store probably through least one ad in three - and if I do it once, it's likely I'll do it at least once more on the same ad because those buttons are loving impossible. What's worse is the fake "X"

Set your private DNS to dns.adguard.com and be almost entirely unbothered by mobile ads ever again. The ads in my daily solitaire game are replaced by black screens with a big X, or occasionally by static screens advertising other games from the same publisher. I never realized Duolingo even had ads until I had to turn off the DNS to use a certain intranet. e: It doesn't work on YouTube, though.

Hirayuki posted:uBlock Origin alone does the trick for me on PC, but I'll check the others out. Sponsorblock skips past the ads that are part of the actual video. NonStop just clicks through the popup you get asking if you're still watching if you leave a playlist going (but also works for YouTube Music, where that popup is way more obnoxious because you're much more likely to want to set it going and leave it for hours at a time). Enhancer does a bunch of things, most of which you probably won't care about, but there's a decent chance that something in there will appeal to you.

When I sneeze at the exact same time a loud noise happens outside so I can't tell what it was or if I just imagined it. The last time it happened I thought it was nothing and ignored it but it was actually a car driving through the front of the store I live a couple of buildings away from.

I was just enrolling in online banking for a new credit card and instead of 'save' on the new entry in my password vault I hit 'cancel' so now I'll have to reset the password on my account 3 minutes after opening it. Smooth move.

I'm not even really sure where to ask this so I'm framing it as a peeve: Somewhere, at some time, I heard that mouthwash is a bullshit waste of time and money, and now every time I'm swishing mouthwash I wonder if I'm just going through the motions. Does anyone know if mouthwash is actually efficacious or not? My mouth feels better after I use it, but that means nothing

I've asked dentists and they have usually said that it doesn't really do anything significant in terms of dental health. But yeah I feel like it leaves a fresh taste in my mouth for longer. And it's also convenient to swish some in the middle of the day if you feel like you have coffee breath.

I asked my dentist about that and he said that it does help to an extent, but there are some brands that don't actually kill bacteria and are just breath fresheners. It's been years so I can't remember what brands he listed. I use good old fashioned brown Listerine and it definitely takes a lot longer for my mouth to start feeling gross.

Decades ago, a dental hygienist I dated briefly told me that the only one that really does anything in terms of killing bacteria is Listerine and that all the others were a waste of money.

Okay, thanks! I'll keep doing it then because I definitely enjoy the breath freshening part. I figure it's gotta be going in and clearing out some biofilms under my tongue or some poo poo. Who knows? It's doing its job even if that job is Associate Director of Minty Placebos FX. Also my phone did a complete update and it sucks. But the worst is that I used to be able to tap the wifi button in my menu and it would disconnect and reconnect. My phone tends to hang on the wi-fi and this would help. But now it takes me to the network setup menu. So my wi-fi still hangs but the two-second fix I used was just axed. I swear there's no end to the petty little psychological war being waged against me

Hey now, sometimes they'll make basic features not work, as an additional little bonus. My last phone's do not disturb mode stopped working after an update. So every night at 23 it would helpfully fire off a notification at full volume to notify me that it was entering do not disturb, as scheduled. And then proceeded to not silence anything else either.

I have the opposite problem - mouthwash, and the feeling of having used mouthwash, triggers my gag relax something fierce. Afterward I get to walk around just low key almost throwing up constantly for an hour or two. Idk how anyone does it

BOOTY-ADE posted:Even better knowing Listerine started out as a feminine hygiene product It started out as floor cleaner. Then they went to feminine hygiene. Then they invented halitosis as a marketing gimmick and sold it as mouth wash. All without any major changes to the formula.

I certainly enjoyed the fun feature my phone had for a while where I told it to set an alarm for tomorrow morning, it told me that it had set an alarm for tomorrow morning, and then did not in any way set an alarm for tomorrow morning.

My old phone used to do that, but only when I used voice controls to set the alarm. Say "hey google, set an alarm for 8:00" and it would pop up a thing saying it was done, but it wasn't. Using the touch controls worked fine though.

I stopped using voice command because I was too stupid to remember to say "timer" instead of "alarm" and kept setting daily alarms to time cooking
