It sounds like it was a buffet kind of deal, in which case the pieces were probably smaller strips/slices of a steak, and not a full sized one.

Yes but even 4x4oz steaks is a 16oz steak which is a pretty big piece of meat so I think you see where I'm going with this

It's wild to me that plantations aren't seen in the same extremely dark and evil light as like concentration camps or SS headquarter buildings are in europe. I guess because the US never really did any sort of purging of pro-slavery culture.

And because a small but significant portion of the US population yearns for those times

Cruise ships are a blight in many ways, especially environmental, and I judge people that go on them. I don't say anything on social media to people I know that post about going on them, but you better believe I'm judging them harshly.

It's the bottom of the barrel, lowest effort and engagement possible "tourism".

"Cruise ship tourists" are the most widely despised visitors of almost any place cruise ships make port, and for good reason.

But they're not all QR code only and the vast majority of restaurants that have QR code menus have regular menus as well, or at least a menu visible at the front. There is not a grand conspiracy to keep homeless people from eating in restaurants via QR codes

Yeah this, a lot of the restaurants in my area have QR code stuff but they all have physical menus if you ask for them.

Actually you are a dumb gently caress if you think a post about an animal dying is entertainment that should be shared with people on SA.
I know this is hard to comprehend but the parts of the post that were entertaining weren't the parts about the aunt killing the fish.

It was the other parts.

Hope that helps.

I'm NTA for dude in this story. I think I'd be on his side even without the note. At a certain point I think you lose the right to get mad about someone having sex if you do not want to have sex with them. "Stay sexually faithful to me, I will never have sex with you again" is an unfair demand. The answer, of course, is divorce.

100% this. Absurd demands don't get to be honored.

I'm trying to imagine how that dude won't end up homeless eventually if he's so against learning anything on his own.

Or dead from self-caused health issues because nobody told him you shouldn't eat that mushroom, or eat only chicken nuggets for every meal

Laundry talk: is everyone aware that if you leave wet clothes in the washer too long before drying them, you're going to smell like dried piss to other people when you wear them? My wife calls it "sour laundry stench" and three adult men she works with regularly have that lovely aroma of amplified body odor.

I hate that smell and judge otherwise put-together people that smell like that. It's super gross.

That is a perfectly valid reason to not want a beehive in the backyard.

It would be, like, number 46 on my list after concerns about the dog getting stung, me getting stung, our friends and neighbors getting stung, the buzzing sounds, the inability to feel comfortable using my backyard, etc.

I'd consider it to be up there with scat play on the "are you really, really, really, really, really, really REALLY sure" scale.

You should be ashamed to be this ignorant of honeybees, or are you and your pets and neighbors just completely incapable of not going up to bees and loving with them until they sting you?

Do you not know the difference between them and yellowjackets or hornets?!
