That's just taking the pith
- good job.
Like a freshly shorn scrotum. Exquisite.
- Succulent, perhaps...?
  
  Like a Chinese me..GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY PENIS!
  ..never thought I'd reference that video twice in one day in COMPLETELY different contexts, let alone that it would be THAT part both times rather than the vastly superior "are you also awaiting my limp penis?"
  
  Like activated almonds.
- its breathtaking, I suggest you try it
I don't get it
- I think the idea is that the person would go through the tedious work of removing all the stringy bits from an orange on the other person's behalf.
  
  My pervert brain first saw it as a metaphor for shaving everything.
  But for most people that would count as "tedious work" too, so the underlying message would be the same either way.
  
  Looks like a tangerine. Still tedious, but much easier than an orange.
  
  Why would someone do that ?
  
  That's beautiful
- You either don't have kids, or they're not horribly picky eaters like mine.
  The stringy bits of an orange are tedious to remove. But if you ask my children, they're also poisonous and taste like death.
  
  They're pretty bitter when you're young, but your taste buds usually become less sensitive to it as you age.
- Also comes to mind: grapefruit method
  
  I can still hear her in my mind....
No, I wouldn't even for me.
I'll make 27 trips downstairs to the fridge for you
I'll work double overtime
I'll hold your hair while you're puking
Peeling oranges that well is a layer of hell best left unvisited.
Marry me now.
Pith off!
I'm the one who does that. Still available.
tears in my eyes..
tears in my fucking eyes.
Pectinase'll dissolve the pith if you're a particular kind of weird, lazy nerd
- Interesting. I didn't know that's what that breed of dog is for.
You know that the white part is the most healthy? Just saying, not implying anything
- That's rather simplistic.
  If you need fiber and usually eat too many sugars, then yeah, maybe.
  If on the other hand you're malnourished and have scurvy, the actual fruit would be the "most healthy."
  
  I’m not an expert, but I’ve heard from experts that in a modern world where everyone consumes an abundance of sugar, eating the fibers help with absorbing the fruit’s sugars in a healthier way.
  And let’s be honest, just look at america, just about everyone could afford to cut sugar and get more fibers. And fruits are by far the best source of fiber. The way I see it, I paid for the skin so I’m gonna eat the skin.
  
  I hereby apologize for being simplistic on a meme community. Also I am privileged enough to never have suffered from scurvy. I am sorry for invisiblizing this sickness. Thanks for reminding me of my privileges.
