For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don't want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That's ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use "less" when they should use "fewer"

"white chocolate" doesn't exist. It's just sugar and a little bit of cocoa butter. It's edible wax. It's not chocolate and it doesn't belong in any assortment of sweets, ever. Cocoa butter is skin moisturizer and that's it.
It provably does exist. And it's delicious. I could go to the supermarket and buy some right now. Except I'm fat and trying to lose weight.
It does exist in the way that chocolate ‘solids’ exist as an element of chocolate. A typical chocolate bar consists of both chocolate solids and cocoa butter. It’s still an element of what you’re eating,
So just cuz you eat ‘chocolate’ because you think you only favor the solids, you’re still eating the butter too in what makes chocolate. It’s like drinking milk products and then getting pedantic over people who use butter as a food even though milk contains some the same elements.
But again this is about stupid hills to die on. And you picked an intolerant and ignorant stance so I guess you technically win in this particular topic.
No need for personal attack, this is all in good fun.
But personal attacks are funny.
TIL I like eating wax
Have you tried ruby chocolate yet? I'm guessing you won't be impressed.
Ruby chocolate?

I've tried it a couple of times, but it's a little hard to find.
It gets it’s name from it’s reddish-pink color.
@notnotmike@programming.dev, this one trigger you to?
Blocked.
I get it off Amazon. It’s so good as is.
I'm allergic to chocolate solids but can eat cocoa butter. So, in a society that is unreasonably obsessed with chocolate, it is nice that there is occasionally a "white chocolate" option on things that for some reason come in 15 flavors of chocolate and little else.
I'm fine with changing the name for it, but you sir can fuck right off if you want me to stop eating it instead of your "real" chocolate
Well, since you called me "sir" like a polite person, I shall retort. I don't care if you eat it, this is about being pedantic! You can go and eat kale!
I try to be polite when cursing at others. It just makes for better online discourse imo
You have my sword.
And my bow.
And my axe!
Oh crap, I zoned out. What are we doing?
Hey, you. You're finally awake.
Dunking on a dude that doesn't think white chocolate is chocolate, hope that helps

Cocoa butter is delicious you fucking heathen. Its melt rate is so close to human skin that it is one of the best carriers of flavor in a cold food.
The PROBLEM is all the white chocolate you've had (or likely never had, from your writing) was child grade hersheys. Try something made in a shop where they add fresh vanilla or strawberry syrup and if you don't change your mind then you just don't like sweets.
I would argue it’s actually congealed demon jizz but it’s definitely not fucking chocolate.
Thank you for being fun and not a terrible person.
I agree with your feeling for the most part. White chocolate is not chocolate and does not belong in chocolate assortments or in the lofty company of actual chocolate. It's a byproduct of chocolate making more than a chocolate itself. That being said, candy and sweets that are made with cocoa butter can be nice. I'm just not going to eat it when I want chocolate.
