As a Southern gal myself, I got whiplash from the implication that people sayin “fixin” are trying to sound important.

I promise, among those of us who say that kinda thing, it’s seen as a mark of ignorance and bein low class in general. The idea that a hillbilly accent can seem “important” is banana sandwiches to me.

This is the internet, friend! You should be free from judgement for upvoting cum!

They are explicitly complaining that there are several users posting content they don’t enjoy.

Don’t you know the entire fediverse is supposed to be cultivated to PatFussy’s personal taste?

MyFitnessPal had a problem with anorexic using the app to compare their disordered eating in competition. From there it went downhill fast.

(Unsweetened) coffee gang represent!

I do a yogurt Smoothie (130 cals) and a cup of black coffee for first breakfast, then a carnation breakfast essentials or a muscle milk protein shake for second breakfast.

It hits my protein goals (super important- I have a very physically demanding job) but it costs more than eating garbage (or pure carbs which I can’t afford to do for my health).

I have no idea. It’s monstrously large so that might be why.

I was buying them and eating half of one for breakfast but with like no protein and no redeeming qualities beyond “not hungry” and “taste good” I knew it wasn’t a real option. But my point here wasn’t “this is what I do,” my point was, “people are being disingenuous when they pretend it’s not a real option many people are taking.”

I work 12 hour shifts. I do meal prep of curries or stews and that makes a good, cheap meal, but the storage required to freeze 3 meals worth of meal prep for 4 days of work… plus the time it consumes in making and properly cooling and storing those meals… it’s not a luxury many people have. Convenience options are very appealing for many reasons and there’s this place where “I have to spend at least a day a week planning for work, preparing and putting away food in order for it to be healthy” yoyos around to, “I don’t make enough to buy healthy convenience food.” If I had kids I’d never be able to prep like I do. Hell, it’s difficult as it is!

Hopefully, one with quiet relief.

Mom wouldn’t want you miserable every year because of her.

I’m the wrong person to answer this. I react badly to eggs (just know it’s gastrointestinal and unpleasant) and I have oral allergy syndrome (specifically bananas).

Love hot sauce though!

I had a hard time arguing against Sam’s Club muffins for breakfast.

For less than $6, I can have nine 710 calorie muffins. But the cost to my health to eat that much pure sugar with extremely little nutrition and like zero protein?

But that’d breakfast for 9 days for less than $7 (including tax.)

People who say eating healthy is cheaper if you’re willing to spend the time have never been to Sam’s Club.

This is such a universal feeling.

There was this mean thing people would say back in like the 90s, that the people complaining online win every argument because everyone who had success was busy being in a relationship.

Loved me some Chip’s Challenge.

You just told them a “better example” than the one they made, because the example you told them was “better” was one you could disagree with, and that shit was transparent as hell.

You talk about wanting free debate but you used an actual strawman.

I think that is exactly why that problem persists. Among a certain subset of the population, there is no need to look further. Why assume that there’s a deeper message there?

Which is why it’s always so frustrating when you see someone arguing that you should only be able to vote if you serve. (Yes, this really happened to me.)

I love the way the smoke seems to be coming off of the top of it…

Ah. The Starship Troopers problem.

It has been so, so long since I last saw the Time Cube. Thank you.

Actually, that’s amazing. Like even if you believe in these things, the karmic “payback” for trying to do evil with it is paid immediately by being scammed.

Man I had to reread that headline like five times. “How was the man, who was killed, rebuking anyone?”
