Constipated? With that much caffeine? O.o

“It will also serve as further incentive to improve your lot in life so you can eat something with actual flavor.”

Pica is the eating of indigestible things like dirt.

Hot take: I like cookie dough way more than these risks require my abstention.

It took some forcing for me to get to like plain water, but eventually I just started getting a gallon jug and a really long straw and making myself drink until I didn’t get annoyed at it anymore. That said, now I go through lotion so fast it’ll make your head spin, because washing your hands after having to pee for…

Not really! The reason everyone drank so much watery beer and tea and such throughout history is that anything that cleaned your water was your friend. Boiling water for tea cleaned it, and alcohol kills microbes. Those also add flavor. Drinking plain water was not always so common and could get you cholera.

I’m more amenable to plain water these days, but I’m going to chalk my general reluctance up to childhood. I grew up in the South, with hyper-sweet tea, juice, and soda all the time, so my drinks didn’t taste right without a lot of sweet flavor. We never (no exaggeration: never) drank water in my house unless we were…

I’ll totally believe that this is psychological and the recipes aren’t different, or not by much. I think I got used to Diet Coke and that might be it.

Agreed, stevia is awful. IDK what it is, maybe it’s whatever they use to extract the stevia stuff, but the aftertaste is horrid.

Did they change Zero? Because I used to like it and now I don’t.

I spent my childhood hating Diet Coke because people told me to. As an adult, when I started having to really watch my weight, I realized that Diet Coke is actually a miracle that lets you taste sweet things when you have a craving but offers zero calories. (Yes, I know there may or may not be research showing that…

Ugh it’s orange inside, no. And if there’s even a hint of “cat food” smell or taste, that ruins everything. I tried that nasty-ass fake jerky stuff and the article here was “oh it smells weird but it tastes great.” No, it tastes like wet cat food. I bet this does too.

The deal with the suicide increase with some SSRIs is that parts of your mood lift before others. You often will get more energy before you shed suicidal ideation. Before, you wanted to die, but you couldn’t get out of bed to do so. Now, you can get out of bed, but you still want to die. The key is to coach people…

Service jobs right now don’t pay enough. You can see it not just in restaurants, but in stores, too. Most big chain stores I go to (Walmart, Petco, etc) look so trashy right now because there just aren’t enough employees there to keep them neat. Clothes on the floor by the racks. Shelves half empty. It’s like looters…

I can’t explain my intense love of Subway bread. Though from the comments here, maybe it’s because it’s sweet bread? I fucking love sweet bread.

Hey, I’m super close to that old Necco factory...

Worst hot take.

In my experience, I take like 10-15 minutes to fall asleep and so a 20 minute nap is really more like an hour by the time I’ve managed to sleep, slept, and then woken up through the groggy stage.

This is not a game for kids. It’s for horror elements and the story is deeper than a kid is probably ready for. Don’t judge it by whether a kiss likes it.

By amazing, you mean predictable? Most everyone likes sex, and a whole ton of people have “disturbing” fetishes. Japan didn’t invent paraphilias.
