I would be so tempted to bring you something horrific because it would be kind of funny and evil.

Pretty much. I doubt that many servers eat regular meals where they work. Their favorite meal is the one that they (A) won’t get sick of and (B) won’t be gross when they get to finish it over half an hour of getting constant pop refills for the 9 year old at table 6.

But pushing a specific dish just because they ordered too much of ____ is a little disingenuous.

I will take Japans ‘obsession’ with doing things properly over USA’s near daily mass shootings.

indicative of a lot of shit that’s less admirable about Japanese culture.

Though, how clean the schools get is kind of reflective of the level of the school. The higher level schools (academically speaking) tend to be pretty spotless as they expect more involvement from their students. The schools that are just kids wrapping of their public school education tend to be not as well cared for,…

The overall lack of litter in Japan is amazing. Here, you see little bits of trash everywhere. Drive out to the middle of nowhere here and you’ll find a piece of trash within 10 feet of where you stop.

I’ve been to Japan twice. When people ask me about my time there, at some point in the conversation I will talk about how nice and clean the toilets are. The first time, when I got back to Canada and went to use the washrooms in the airport, the floor was sticky as if someone had used corn syrup to mop the floors.

I actually like shredded wheat. Now, any cereal with marshmallows in them are truly disgusting. I never had those types until I was an adult and it horrifies me, the horrible texture and cloyingly sweet taste of stuff like Lucky Charms.

I remember those mini cereal packs. We’d get them on trips and I’d be the kid that actually wanted the plain cereals.

I get Nature’s Path Kamut flakes and those stay crispy pretty well. To me, cereal is just something to consume in the morning. During the week, I probably barely even taste my breakfast, it just happens.

I swear Honey Nut Cheerios have gotten a lot sweeter in the last 40 years. I now mix them 1 part to 3 parts regular cheerios.

I was raised on Muffets and oatmeal. I also didn’t get store bought cookies except at friend’s houses.

If you go watch the various ads for Apple Jacks on youtube, the concept that they are supposed to taste like apple and cinnamon is very clearly laid out.

There are NO grapes and NO nuts in GrapeNuts cereal. Honest to god, what the fuck is with that?!?!? The one time I tried them, I was horrified.

One of the few guys that I’ve slept with gently tried to push my head down toward his crotch. I literally said “are you fucking kidding me?” and then left. Apparently, I’m a ‘blue balling bitch who can’t take a joke’.

Slap the vape out of their hands. I sure fucking would.

It is like my brother that claims he was doing that Jim Carrey “Alrighty then” gag years before Jim Carrey was doing it. I guarantee that, if you looked through old movies, you’ll find someone else doing it. Also, I just assume many other people have said it that way.

Yeah. Kind of like how people who complain the most about political correctness are the people who miss being able to make racist and sexist jokes.

Oh, hey . . . is this an academic paper discussing the correlation between poverty, education, and terrorism? If you google poverty and hate groups, you’ll find a number of papers and many articles discussing it.
