The French wines (especially those you are referencing) are meant to be aged 20+ years. They would still be good earlier, but the aging mellows the tannins, evening out any “rough edges”. And BTW, sediment is common in high end wines, not a cause for concern, but rather a sign of quality. You might also notice an…

If you’re at a restaurant, simply call attention to the oxidized wine, they’ll be happy to replace it. If you bought it from a store, take it back to them and ask for a replacement. They should have no problem doing so, The distributor (who sells the wine to the retail outlets and/or restaurants) will take back the…

Facebook, Fox news, OAN, QAnon, Trumpism, Pandemic stress, Already fragile mental health... The list is long.

Yeah, but Denzel Washington? Really? Really?

I think you’re paranoid, manipulated...

I appreciate that, and recognize that some of this is a little tongue-in-cheek. My original statement about fries was more of a response to people who think “French Fry”= cut potatoes and deep fry them. I mean, at it’s most basic form, yes, that’s a french fry. But any good fries I’ve eaten (again, subjective, but…

I’m not trying to be a foodie purist. If you like it, I ain’t gonna yuck your yum. But “totally freestyling” in cooking methods (like boiling a steak) can result in sub-standard food. You wanna grill a steak? Great! You wanna pan fry a steak? Have at it. Sous Vide? Knock your socks off. Microwave? Eh... if you like…

Look, man, you wanna boil a NY strip steak and eat it... fine. But you ARE doing it wrong. It is possible to prepare food incorrectly. And anyone is welcome to add dill pickles to Jelly Donuts, if you like it, whatever. It’s still wrong.

You are also cooking fries wrong. Seriously, try the submersion in water to leach the starch, maybe if you wanna get crazy freeze them, and then fry. You WILL notice a big difference.

No. Just no. Potatoes should be sliced into fries and then submerged for 2-4 hours to leech some of the natural starch out. Punch and fry french fries are gummy and unpleasant from all the starch. Freezing them also improves them, as the ice crystals break the starch up. In-N-Out is doing fries wrong. 

It’s not just the spelling, it’s a very weird run-on sentence with no filter. It reads like he’s saying the entire thing in one breath.

Are you ok? Kinda seems like you might be having a stroke, or something. 

Don’t believe I actually defined what “masculinity” is. Or made a generalization about what defines it. I wish you well. 

“dick around so every country to see just how “free”

Because that was the way in which the abuse was “bullying”. Look, I get it if you don’t understand “masculinity” or the concept of “manhood”. They are social constructs, and you might even feel that they are false constructs, and should be done away with. Society’s definition of what “makes you a man” isn’t…

I’m interested to hear why you believe the word “emasculate” is sexist? Do you mean it’s derogatory to men or to women? I think it’s strange that any word with a gendered association is considered “sexist” by some people. In this case “abuse” is vague and imprecise...what kind of abuse? Verbal? Emotional? Physical?…

Hahaha. It's kind of sweet the way you believe evangelicals are capable of critical thinking.

Because emasculating is more precise. Words mean things.

Don't worry,  when the revolution comes he'll be among the first against the wall.

“pre-tipping at a bar (i.e. handing the bartender money before they even get your order) is also assholish. you’re basically telling the person that you can and will buy their service and that you expect to be remembered.”
