I see they've included a sticker for that unsung hero of the internet Jones Good Ass BBQ & Foot Massage! That really classes up the whole thing!
Careful, you may have just started an Entmoot
It's fine I actually like seeing all the posts from Germany and France and the UK, it was just weird to see the same meme show up so many times with no explanation lol
I just opened Lemmy to browse all and half the posts are memes in German about pizza. Wtf Germany?
I'm in the US. On my last trip to the grocery store I saw that the Mt Olive brand is now selling pickle juice as its own separate product. They had little shot sized bottles and big liter jugs of it. Someone had the actual nerve to market this as a "sports drink".
It's literally on the same shelf right next to the pickles, and cost nearly twice as much.
This reminds me of a lady I used to work with around like 2001 or so. She was the first vegan person I'd ever spent much time talking to. Every vegan I'd met up to that point were people I'd consider to be "health nuts" as in they were constantly talking about nutrition, they were all on the thin side, most of them didn't smoke or drink. After talking to this lady for a while though it became apparent that her "healthy" vegan diet was like 80% deep fried oily junk food and the other 20% was mostly booze lol. She was always complaining that she couldn't lose weight. I remember thinking at the time how silly it seemed to go through all the hassle involved with staying vegan while still getting zero health benefit from it.
Even if you're only vegan for moral reasons it seems like you'd have to really work to make it that unhealthy lol
I guess it would depend on how badly I need to use the bathroom... If it's becoming an emergency situation then I'll go pretty much anywhere.
Most people get way less picky once they're legitimately afraid they'll shit their pants
The actual word is "citrusy"... What kind of restaurants have you been going to? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
It's literally in the article my source is right there. The only person trolling at this point is you. There is literally nothing I can quote here that isn't in the article, so copying and pasting it for you serves no purpose. I am done arguing with you about it, so I am blocking you now.
Have a nice day
Dude, it literally says it in the article in the post. If you can't be bothered to read it that's not my problem. I'm not going to go through and post quotes and links to an article that the post has already provided. It's not difficult, just click the link in the post
This looks like it might be kind of fun to actually cook lol it might work better with the baked style Mac n cheese though
I got to see them live way back in like 2000!!! One of the best live shows I've ever been to!
That's hilarious! I used to love that game and I still rock the soundtrack sometimes lol
Maybe the nuggets at that location are close to their expiration date so they're only selling larger sizes to get rid of them faster?
You read the same article I did buddy, I don't have any other information. If you disagree with my assessment of it that's fine, I'm not going to sit here and copy/paste the whole article for you though.
Well, it comes in handy as a mini pry tool, a mini scraper, and on occasion it can even work as an improvised screw driver! You can also use it to play the guitar in a pinch lol
I never knew the 80s new wave version by Soft Cell was a cover lol
I had to frog almost all the progress I made last week and redo it after realizing I'd somehow stitched everything in the new section one row too low... Thankfully I got caught back up and made a little more progress though so I hope this panel will be done by Friday!
There aren't really any other instructions included on the PDF. I think it's supposed to be a half stitch of one color and then a half stitch of the other maybe?
Those little flowers took a while to finish but I'm really happy with how they came out! I think by the end of today I'll be able to finally move on to the next section!
This section is taking a while since there's so much confetti stitching between the pink sections! Hopefully by the end of the week this part will look like flowers lol!
Once I finish the first half of No Faces mask and the bottom where Chihiro's shirt is I can finally move on to the side sections!
This is just what I keep on me when I'm at home being lazy lol
Guitar pick for scale

I've been a Slayer fan for nearly 30 years now, and as a guitar player Kerry King has been one of my heroes since I was a teenager, so I went into this with high hopes.
I'm sure you've all heard some reviews already calling the whole project "Slayer Lite" and I can't completely disagree with that, but I really feel it's not entirely fair, and I will clarify that as I go through the good, the bad, and the "meh" of this album.
Let's get the bad out of the way first. This is mostly just a Slayer album. As much as I love Slayer I was really hoping for something more from this solo outing. The part that really kind of irritates me the most is that it's not even a cohesive Slayer album. Some tracks sound like modern Slayer, some like 90s Slayer when they flirted with nu metal, and my favorites sounded like classic 80s thrash era.
What we've ended up with sounds more like a collection of Slayer B-sides and unreleased tracks that goes on a little longer than it probably should. While they are all definitely good songs, there's really not much here I haven't heard before. The guitars sound like Slayer, the drums sound like Slayer, the bass sounds like Slayer, even the singer sounds like Tom Araya with a sore throat.
Wow, I really used the word "Slayer" a lot there...
That's really it for anything negative I can say about it, so let's move on to the positive!
There are a number of tracks on here where you can actually hear Kerry King very tentatively trying to step out of his comfort zone a little, and that kept me engaged enough to listen to the whole thing. Mostly these were little things that I think would have been vetoed on a regular Slayer release. There are some neoclassical riffs, a couple of tracks lean a little more punk which I really liked, I think I even heard a little blues lick here and there!
I wouldn't call any track on here bad! I enjoyed all of them individually even if they don't necessarily add up to something that sounds like an "album" as a whole! If you were really wanting more Slayer after the last album you won't be disappointed!
My final conclusion is that this is an album written by a man who has played the same type of music with the same band for 40+ years, and is not yet really sure how to branch out on his own. If he makes another one, and I hope he does, I'd like to hear him go completely off the deep end and play something totally unexpected that he always wanted to do but couldn't because it didn't sound "Slayer" enough.
My final grade is 3 inverted crucifixes out of 5

Working on finishing Yubaba's son (in his mouse form)! He looks a bit like a zombie mouse right now, but that will change once I finish the eyes lol
After a little over a year of stitching now I still feel like a bit of a noob, but I'm pretty comfortable with the basics. These parts of patterns still give me some problems though!
My strategy is usually to just do all of one color then move on to the next filling in the gaps as I go, but when it gets down to filling individual stitches surrounded by a bunch of finished stitches it gets quite cramped and sometimes those final stitches end up looking pretty rough.
Is there some really obvious method of doing this that I'm missing? Does anyone else use a different approach?
Once you see it you can never unsee it
I got behind due to a lot of stuff going on in my life, but I managed to make some progress still! Sadly because I've been working on it here and there I had some mistakes that resulted in me having to frog a bunch of stitches to get back on track, but it's looking good now!
I did not realize how many fiddly little parts there were to this one lol I think No-Face and Haku should go a bit faster once I get to them though!
