People in the first world are weird and incredibly wasteful around food. That piece of broccoli that fell on the countertop for two seconds is still okay to eat. You don't have to toss everything one minute past its sell-by date, which is just put there arbitrarily the by food companies to make you buy more of their poo poo anyway. If your apple is a little bruised on one side, just cut that part out and have the rest. Or you can probably just eat the bruised side too, it won't kill you. Cheap cuts of meat, liver et. al are all delicious when prepared in the right way and you don't have to eat Trump steaks every night. If you go out to a restaurant and can't finish the meal, get a box and take the goddamn thing home. Don't leave half of it out to rot because you're too lazy to put something in a microwave for three minutes. We live in a world with increasingly strained resources and the utter disrespect some people have for the abundance that surrounds their lives drives me crazy.

My personally held unpopular opinion is that people are way too elitist about food in general which sometimes leads to bizarre cultural fetishism privileging what is essentially the comfort food of other regions. Like people who fall over themselves to fake disgust and mock the great sin of ranch on pizza while espousing the great virtue of some $8 elotes, essentially Mexican junk food, they bought off a food truck. I’m a pretty fit person and have enough money to buy whatever I want now but that wasn’t always the case and when people feign their hyperbolic online revulsion of cheap functional food that help people feed their families then I get mad. Now I’m not saying that the food industry moguls aren’t all horrible monsters who sell us a ton of crap every day, because that’s definitely true, but I know what it’s like to not have a whole lot and I’ll eat a humble pop tart and artisanal charcuterie just the same.

1 should be a prime number and it's totally hosed up that it isn't considered one any longer. Basically the only reason why is that there's something called the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra that would have had to include an asterisk for "except 1" and instead of just revising the rule or writing a better theorem, some math nerds back in the 1800s decided to demote 1 to not being prime. But 1 IS prime! It's literally the most prime integer you can have! That's burnt.

One of the very best Black Mirror stories (San Junipero) is also one of the few optimistic episodes so that would be good to start with, alongside the decidedly less-happy offerings like White Bear and Fifteen Million Merits.

I have never seen an anime that is laid back. It's always japanese people screaming at each other even if it's something as simple as saying good morning. Settle down. That doesn't happen nearly as often as the old lady noises every character makes whenever there's a break in the dialogue.

This entire premise is wack because yes, bread rice and basically anything edible by humans has varying degrees of chewiness. Al dente means toothy and still slightly firm, not "raw pasta out of the box."

But in ridiculously good shape, get to eat everything in sight, and don't get winded walking up a flight of stairs like 95% of all Americans. It has its ups and downs. Once you begin to tolerate the sight of your toenails turning black and falling off every once in awhile, you're good.

The number 1 should be considered prime. I’ve read all the reasons why mathematicians exclude it from the set of prime numbers, and they are all unconvincing to me. Instead of saying okay okay but 1 doesn’t count for everything, they should invent a better rule. You can’t get much more primal than the number freakin 1! #mopa

Food snobbery is just being a picky eater in reverse, with a little dash of classism thrown in. Humans wouldn't have survived as long as we have as a species if everything you consumed caused you to wretch and gag like people love to portray online. Oh my god mayo, not eggs oil and some salt anything but that lol. I'm a mega foodie and I'll eat everything from some froo-froo artisanal whatever to the humble pop-tart. We've evolved to enjoy pretty much anything we can stuff down our collective gullets, and to pretend that your palette is simply too refined, too delicate to enjoy some good-rear end Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli from time to time impresses nobody.

When people say "if you tell me I can't do something, that means I'm gonna try 10x harder!" Most people see tend to see this as some kind of inspirational quote about that person triumphing over adversity instead of failing to follow the probably accurate advice of multiple observers.

Most of those people do not realize that virtually all the meat and produce we eat today are horrifyingly deformed mutants our ancestors experimented on for millennia to grow quickly and be palatable to humans.

People who can't wait to report how some harmless fast food gave them explosive diarrhea after every meal are either lying or have a severely compromised digestive tract and should seek medical help immediately. "I ate a burrito from Taco Bell and got the shits." "I ate chili from Wendy's and was on the toilet all afternoon." "I ate a ladyfinger from Cafè Saisson in the Jewelry District and violently shat my pants." No you didn't, and also, no one wants to hear if you did.

Christianity is a weird one because it's a monotheistic religion whose leaders spent hundreds of years attempting to explain how one logically be both fully human and fully divine. They probably would have loved the idea of the half button press in Mario 64 speedruns.
