Wow. Just wow.

Depending on my mood I go butter and brown sugar, or olive oil, garlic, and Parmesan.

I eat the skin of regular kiwi’s. Am I not supposed to?

Find a purpose that motivates you. For some people that is exploring, for others it is expressing themselves creatively, or helping people, or fighting for a cause you believe in, or trying to make the perfect baked potato.

I don’t know your specific limitations. Perhaps there is motivation in overcoming them, or helping others so they won’t have them too?

You were a little sparse with details, and I trust you have your reasons. Depending on this situation this advice could be pretty insensitive. My goal is not to offend or upset. I hope I haven’t.

It’s also called redundancy.

Such a weird idea. I want to try it.

This doesn’t answer your question, but I just had a great idea for an art project which includes detailed applications of different protection levels of sunblock, and a tanning bed.

I guess stripes would be an easy place to start. Who wants to try it?

Before I had a kid, I heard this was a thing, but didn’t really care as I didn’t really have a desire to be around kids. Once I became a father, I realized a lot of people make strange assumptions about men around small humans. Its certainly not most people, but definitely some, and definitely not just online.

I think you were implying something different, but I feel like I get a ton of odd comments suggesting it’s weird for me to be out with my own kid. Things like “giving mom the day off?” or “what happened to his mom?”.

I had friends complain about this kind of thing before I had kids and I thought that they were exaggerating. Nope, it’s all over the place. It’s certainly not everyone, but it is much more common than I expected.

I don’t mind buying things, sometimes I even enjoy it. I hate being sold things.

I’m often for giving people the benefit of the doubt, but the “keep your dumb mouth shut” part makes me feel like this is less of a shower thought and more of a “I didn’t know where to complain” thought.

I’m guessing you didn’t really think this one through. Perhaps try on Unpopular Opinions ?

I’m a little out of the loop on this one, so this might be a dumb question. For $70 do you get the game, or just most of it? Do certain features cost more? Does it require a online subscription?

I like the “secret 'stache” joke.

… Forgive me for borrowing from reddit:

If I put myself in the mindset of the time, this makes complete sense. Looking back though it sounds ridiculous.

I love it.

I remember borrowing CDs from friends and converting them to MP3s in the mid-late 90s. Admittedly I didn’t really know what I was doing, so I couldn’t really explain it to my friends, but ripping CDs with Windows CLI programs and amassing a huge (for the time) digital music collection was something I thought was super cool. Unlike wav files, I could actually (not always) fit a whole song on a floppy disc!

Find a hobby that would use the product type in question. Find a community for said hobby then look for discussions comparing the options that are out there.

This tends to work better for certain things more than others. I doubt many hobby groups get excited about dishwashers or clothing dryers. I’m these cases, the Buy it For Life communities tend to have decent comparisons.

I came to specifically to promote the infrared thermometer. Glad to find it near the top of the list.

It’s so helpful for so many things.

I wander. I can walk to a Boston subway stop in about 35 minutes. I often just hop on a train and get off at a random stop and just explore.

I’m literally on a train right now for this very purpose.

My personal experience: Trying to find a restaurant that has vegan friendly options isn’t always easy, and used to be much harder. That would make trying to find somewhere to eat as a group much more tedious if someone was vegan. I don’t think anyone had issue with the person being a vegan, I think they just didn’t like eating at the same two restaurants over and over.
