Yeah, most Chinese restaurants I’ve been to have a whole section dedicated to vegetables, usually with a dozen or so items, 90% of them which are pretty healthy (stir-fried eggplant is probably cutting it close). I always make sure to order at least one leafy green veggie dish with sauteed snow pea sprouts and garlic b…

This was how one of my roommate always seasoned her veggies: a touch of garlic powder and a dash of soy sauce. Worked on virtually anything— even the veggies that came in steamer bags.

Have you tried shopping at Indian grocery stores? There are a bunch scattered around the Bay Area. They usually have fresh okra in stock, assuming you aren’t distracted by the super affordable garlic, ginger, and spices.

I’m from the Bay Area too, and I’m increasingly sad as smaller restaurants are being replaced with more expensive, trendy ones that equate “vegetable” and “vegetarian” with sad salads.

I think the only catch with vegetarians eating at Chinese restaurants is that there might be cross-contamination of cooking utensils (if they care about this sort of thing), and the possibility of animal stock or fat being used to flavor some vegetable dishes.

Indian restaurants are amazing and I’m endlessly amazed at just how tasty vegetarian dishes can be.

Ironically, Chinese restaurants are one of the few places where I can order a big plate of cooked leafy green vegetables (snow pea leaves with garlic? practically entree-worthy), whereas most Western restaurants only offer salad. Hell, even Panda Express lets you replace rice with a ton of seasoned steamed veggies.

A deduction is considerably less valuable than a tax credit, regardless of income. Even then, a deduction is still more beneficial to higher income earners who have higher marginal tax brackets.

Asian moms everywhere are collectively gasping at this very moment. My mom wouldn’t even let me walk around with wet hair (30 years and counting, still no migraines).

I do squats in the bathroom if my pants permit (important!!1!). Our stalls are deep enough that I can pull it off without hitting anything.

Asking the important questions. He’s not bald or dead-eyed, so I really question the veracity of his methods.

I’m glad I’m not the only one confused by the definition of “wider” in this case.

That sucks— maybe the low stance of the car also contributes?

Their field of view is too limited using only the back up camera to be able to see other vehicles approaching.

I miss the days of no traffic lights. Thanks to the Nanny State, modern drivers have lost the situational awareness needed to navigate complex intersections. Nothing builds skill better than coordinating effective horn-honking and obscene hand gestures while trying to force your way through a city intersection during…

Yeah, rust! That’s why they also use plastic camlocks.

“Because you can’t ship a finished car here from Japan.”

Playing through DMC5 to unlock higher difficulties. Originally I was trying to get S rank on every stage before moving on, but I realized that it’s actually a lot easier to get style points in higher difficulties because you get to fight more enemies for longer.

This was my reasoning for “needing” a van a few years back, but then I realized that all these family road trips I had envisioned were pretty much imaginary

Considering the RAV4, Rogue, and CR-V (followed closely by the ever dowdy Camry) are the top-selling non-trucks in America, it’s pretty clear that a big proportion of American car buyers just need a practical ride to get them and their stuff from point A to B with minimal fuss. Hell, I bet the average Camry buyer…
