If you’re lucky enough to have some kind of Asian supermarket nearby, go look for Kiwi knives. They only cost a few bucks, but they’re super sharp to start and will last many years if you sharpen them from time to time. My Kiwi chef’s knife has been my daily driver for years, over a much more expensive knife that just…

Can confirm, my 6-year-old loves Dream Buffet, Animal Crossing, and Lucky’s Tale (we don’t own that last one, but she’s played that demo over and over for like 20 hours)

Ket Shee is like Teedus. Everybody on the internet will “well actually” you about it in an instant, but everyone I’ve ever known in real life uses the “wrong” pronunciation.

Ree-seez? Ree-says? I’ve never heard anyone (or any commercials) call it either of those, or even that there was a question on the subject. It’s Rees-ez.

Elder millennial here, the one time I tried online grocery shopping they got my order hilariously wrong in a way that cost me 50% more money (they “ran out” of the smaller cheaper steak I selected and gave me two larger fancier ones instead, among other errors), and I ended up having to go to the store physically to…

I got to level 13 before I ever got an affliction, and it was because I jumped off a cliff to see how far I could fall before taking fall damage (I’d jumped down a few places I felt should have hurt me before this and was wondering). I tore a muscle, and just used one of the many restoration items I’d picked up to…

I’ve been using a combination of most of these with my daughter. We spend time together regularly going through her books and toys, deciding which ones she’s still regularly using and which ones to donate so other kids can enjoy them, which makes room for the next new thing she wants to get. She's not really…

I’ve got a very small house (only around 600 square feet) and while I own a broom with a full-length handle, it’s been hanging untouched behind a door for at least a year while I use my daughter’s small toy broom to actually sweep up anything around the house. I mostly use the vacuum on the wide open spaces, so the…

Yep, this game is exactly what I wanted it to be. A new adventure in a new place with new people and new lore to learn, but set in a game that plays the same as one I’m already intimately familiar with, so I can just jump right in and start enjoying those things right away rather than having to get used to the…

Mine has always had pickle relish, that’s the way my mom made it and I basically can't order tuna salad anywhere else because they make it wrong (with celery). I think hatred of celery might be genetic.

I lived with roommates for years due to necessity, and I’ll never do it again. Something about having to share a kitchen with someone whose level of acceptable cleanliness is even the tiniest bit different from yours. Tiny annoyances that are too minor to actually talk to people about will simmer for years. And that’s…

Or to prevent them from sticking together like that, freeze them on a baking sheet, separated from each other, and THEN put them in a bag and suck all the air out. Pretty sure that’s how the companies that sell frozen fruits and veggies in bags at the store do it.

Thinking back on other Bethesda games I’ve played in the past, I certainly didn’t feel like I had really gotten a good grasp on Skyrim or Fallout 4 until I’d been solidly playing for weeks, and that’s a good thing! I love having huge detailed worlds to really explore. If a place is so shallow that I can understand it…

I feel like we should stop calling them “main” quests. They aren’t any more important than the other ones. It’s just another path to follow, another story to explore, and all of them are equally optional.

Eh, I’ve always been one to deep-dive into only one or two games per year and skip all the other ones, so I do appreciate having a big game to really chew on. I don’t want to spend the time getting started and learning all the ins and outs of a new game just to have to move on in a week or two because I ran out of…

I don’t go into a Bethesda game for the main quest though. I’ve got 500+ hours on Fallout 4 despite not normally enjoying post-apocalypse as a setting, just because I loved to come back into the game just to mess around with settlement building.

I used to have one of these, with the intention of using it while sitting at my desk or at the couch playing video games. Unfortunately, cycling at my desk is a no-go because my knees slam into the underside of the desk (maybe if it were further away it would work, but my desk is up against a wall), and when I tried…

Not everyone likes almond flavoring. It doesn’t taste anything like almonds. If I went in expecting vanilla and it tasted like almond extract, I would not be happy and most definitely would not be asking for the recipe.

I’ve got a ton of tomato plants right now, and I’ve been using them up (along with my too-much zucchini, green beans, and onions) by making big batches of vegetable soup to put in the freezer. I’m too paranoid for canning, but I’ve got room in the freezer for future lunches. However many tomatoes I have in a…

I’ve always lived in the suburbs. My previous workplace turned out to BE a pokestop. If I was running low on pokeballs or something, I’d take a few seconds here and there to spin it while I was working. That’s when I made the bulk of my progress on the game, because otherwise I’ve always had to go out of my way to…
