As a Southern gal myself, I got whiplash from the implication that people sayin “fixin” are trying to sound important.
I promise, among those of us who say that kinda thing, it’s seen as a mark of ignorance and bein low class in general. The idea that a hillbilly accent can seem “important” is banana sandwiches to me.
They are explicitly complaining that there are several users posting content they don’t enjoy.
Don’t you know the entire fediverse is supposed to be cultivated to PatFussy’s personal taste?
I do a yogurt Smoothie (130 cals) and a cup of black coffee for first breakfast, then a carnation breakfast essentials or a muscle milk protein shake for second breakfast.
It hits my protein goals (super important- I have a very physically demanding job) but it costs more than eating garbage (or pure carbs which I can’t afford to do for my health).
I have no idea. It’s monstrously large so that might be why.
I was buying them and eating half of one for breakfast but with like no protein and no redeeming qualities beyond “not hungry” and “taste good” I knew it wasn’t a real option. But my point here wasn’t “this is what I do,” my point was, “people are being disingenuous when they pretend it’s not a real option many people are taking.”
I work 12 hour shifts. I do meal prep of curries or stews and that makes a good, cheap meal, but the storage required to freeze 3 meals worth of meal prep for 4 days of work… plus the time it consumes in making and properly cooling and storing those meals… it’s not a luxury many people have. Convenience options are very appealing for many reasons and there’s this place where “I have to spend at least a day a week planning for work, preparing and putting away food in order for it to be healthy” yoyos around to, “I don’t make enough to buy healthy convenience food.” If I had kids I’d never be able to prep like I do. Hell, it’s difficult as it is!
I’m the wrong person to answer this. I react badly to eggs (just know it’s gastrointestinal and unpleasant) and I have oral allergy syndrome (specifically bananas).
Love hot sauce though!
Here’s hoping we see a response.
I had a hard time arguing against Sam’s Club muffins for breakfast.
For less than $6, I can have nine 710 calorie muffins. But the cost to my health to eat that much pure sugar with extremely little nutrition and like zero protein?
But that’d breakfast for 9 days for less than $7 (including tax.)
People who say eating healthy is cheaper if you’re willing to spend the time have never been to Sam’s Club.
I love the way the smoke seems to be coming off of the top of it…
Whoever down voted this has no sense of humor.
Context here would help. MewTwo here was born after horrific genetic experimentation and the moment depicted was MewTwo learning that just because his “father” was an unconscionable monster doesn’t mean that MewTwo is justified in waging war on all more privileged creatures. It isn’t their fault he was made in a lab to subjugate the world, so it’s not the circumstances of his birth that dictates that everyone else should pay.
10/10 name! Are you a Name Rater?
I really wish this was labeled with a warning. Scared the hell out of me.
I’m a pokemon breeder. You never get to fight me because I’m always telling you whether there’s an egg or not, but if you got to see my perfect IV, perfect EV, perfect nature team, every single one is shiny.
And a side effect of all that needless effort is that I’m frickin loaded.
My appearance is the Alolan girls’ (braids, cowboy hat, overalls).
Need a better, less kinky name for me though.
I’m in awe of the pylons.
Your comment made me look it up and now I also what the fuck
I would watch this soap opera.
Be good to you, friend. Hope we cross paths elsewhere.
I know! How enlightened and humble that answer was!
Frank Oz, who previously performed as Bert, stated Bert and Ernie were not gay, saying,
"They're not, of course, a gay couple. But why that question? Does it really matter? Why the need to define people as only gay? There's much more to a human being than just straightness or gayness."[17][18]Sesame Street went on to clarify further, stating:
"No, Bert and Ernie aren't gay - they're 'best friends'".[19]The Gaystar News reported that fans reacted negatively to this assertion. Frank Oz later tweeted in September 2018
A last thought: If Jim and I had created Bert and Ernie as gay characters they would be inauthentic, coming from two straight men. However, I have now learned that many view them as representative of a loving gay relationship. And that's pretty wonderful. Thanks for helping me understand.[20][21]
So, I would say they weren’t intended that way from the start but only because the writers didn’t think to do so. Frank Oz is a great reference for these things, and if he says “I love how you see them as representation” then that’s good enough for me.
I have to say, I suspected this. Being honest. I said to myself, “What could run off Stamets,” and that’s exactly what I came up with. The benefit of being closer to 40 than 30 I guess.
Now to join your community. Thank you genuinely for commenting here for me to see directly. I’m not good at creating content (every time I ever got a burst of creativity on reddit I was banned for posting too much so I just stopped making memes) but I comment like a sumbitch!
