Reading this thread I think the conclusion is that both men and women can consider themselves “perverted” but the bounds of what each consider “too extreme” is so different that they both think that the other side is just too kinky/disgusting.

Edit: or maybe I mean the other way around. People saying “yeah I’m kinky” and someone else going “eh, that’s nothing”. Two people both thinking two different things are extreme and then learning that mutually, both their extremes are considered tame by the other person.

Also these “jokes” come from the long history of women having to marry for status/stability instead of being able to think about their own attraction.

Listen Meta, all you have to do is make the technology free and available to everyone, prove you aren’t motivated by profit, use your vast wealth and resources to improve society, and be completely transparent with all your business interactions. Then you wouldn’t be getting all this hate

This made me laugh pretty hard.

Yeah if you don’t go to a lot of restaurants and realize the food is mid, you just aren’t good at cooking yet.

High quality restaurants that can beat my cooking exist, and are in every town. I’m not just comparing myself to a Michelin star. Another thing restaurants have over me are deep fryers and other superior cooking equipment, which make food I just can’t make myself.

And I would never deny, the way I make my home cooking taste better than a restaurant is by taking an hour or two to cook the food and being able to buy fresh, small quantity ingredients the day of.

But I mean come on. To your point, people who work in kitchens can make a better meal for themselves at the end of their shift than what they generally serve in a day. Restaurant food is designed for quantity and consistency, that’s about it.

I think it’s the “yes, but” that makes it bad. Implying that the second image makes the first image worse. If it was just the two images side by side it could be interpreted as just an observation.

It does not take very many tries to start cooking better than a restaurant. And the best part is you can make sure that only your favorite ingredients get in there.

After like maybe half a year of cooking for myself a couple times a week (instead of frozen food or like canned food) it’s seriously started to astound me how bad some restaurant food is.

I know take out is mostly for convenience, but if the problem is taste you’re in luck because the bar to clear for tastier food than take out is really really low.

Well, they were all single.

Idk for me this cycle happened because for the first 6 months of work I took my bosses criticisms seriously thinking “holy shit if I keep screwing things up I’m going to get fired.” 2 years on and I realize every threat was completely hollow.

I do use KY jelly to know myself.

I thought the CEO of sex was real and loved me :(

To me the point of regular exercise, especially cardio, is that if I run every day, my body simply doesn’t want to eat the unhealthy food. I can’t run if I’ve eaten a sleeve of Oreos that day. And afterwards my body craves hearty, healthy meals and vegetables.

3 or 5 they’re two different moods. 4 is too in the middle for me.

“In one go” is a loose term here. You’re not going to feel pretty tomorrow no matter which way you slice it, but if you start at like 7pm and are up until like 1 or 2 in the morning that’s a lot of time to space out the drinking. For a 750 ml bottle that’s about 2.5 shots an hour. Bad for you, but doable. Not to mention they did not fill the cup up with a whole bottle.

ITT lotsa people who have never been made aware of “morning breath”

Because your body naturally produces things you need to clean, it’s like 75% of the reason you do it. Eating stuff just speeds up the production of bacteria. Give your breath a smell as you wake up in the morning before you eat anything, it reeks.

You should brush your teeth in the morning whether you eat breakfast or not.

So often it’s me typing out a big old comment. Realizing I can preempt some nuance to help the conversation. Thinking of a dozen more little nitpicks that might happen and realizing it’s just not worth it and it’s really the idiocy of the argument that’s making it so hard to explain myself.

And the last panel just tells you to use cocaine, unrelated.

To point 3, I heard some author point out, and I think it makes a lot of sense, that reading bad writing can maybe tell you what not to do, but there’s so much good writing out there, more than you could read in a lifetime, that it just doesn’t make sense not to read all the best books. If you read in a world of excellent writing your standards are that high and you can still take lessons from the worst of the best.
