I honestly haven’t had the 3x spicy version so I honestly cant say anything about it. I had the Spicy and Hot Chicken which, based on the name, I’m guessing is milder. I know that spice tolerance is a huge thing and can vary wildly from person to person so I totally understand how it could be a bad experience to some. Which is why I think a recall is silly and instead they should have a warning so those who like it can continue to eat it.

Sounds like a skill issue.

But seriously I’m guessing people in Denmark (or these regulators) don’t eat much spicy food because I’ve had the Spicy and Hot Chicken and it wasn’t spicy to me.

I’ve been dealing with my 85 year old uncle who recent fell and broke his hip again. I’ve learned the following:

1. Physical exercise is important! My uncle could barely walk before, which is probably why he fell. While he was in the hospital he physically could not sit up on his own (no upper body strength) and now cant lift himself into/out of his wheelchair. I’ve decided to start working out more and focus on strength.

2. Listen to your doctors!! After he broke his hip the first time, he refused to do physical therapy and would not use his cane. It’s obvious that both of these things would have helped prevent him from falling the second time.

3. Be kind to the people around you! My uncle is narcissistic and insults friends/family when he gets comfortable with them. This meant that for most of his stay in the hospital, I was the only person who visited.

My family says your an adult the day you enjoy buying adult things. I just recently bought some good knives and glass food storage containers. I was super excited when they arrived. Video games and other fun things are exciting to buy myself but some good knives were next level.

Pumbaa, with you, everything’s gas.

I think the problem is that no one can agree on what makes the world shitty. Some people think the rich should be taxed, some people think other people shouldn’t have equal rights. And then other people are purposely using the disagreement to get what they want. It’s a mess with no clear fix in sight.

Alcoholic drinks, for a good part of history, were safer to drink than water because its production includes a boiling step that kills bacteria. We know now that you have to boil or treat water before drinking but for most of history alcohol was safer.

I think a normal measuring tape could work. I went to a place and they measured my chest above/below my breasts and then across the center and lower part of my breasts. The issue is the cost for premium bras are often out of the price range for most people.

I accidentally overdosed on acetaminophen after a surgery once. Doctor forgot to tell me (or I was still high when he told me) he gave me acetaminophen during/after the surgery. I thought I still could take up to 4g that day. A few hours after the surgery, the pain started to kick in so I took some acetaminophen. Ended up vomiting uncontrollably.

My mom told my brother he’s her favorite son (he’s her only son) and I’m her second favorite daughter (I’m her only daughter). We were confused and my mom said we have a secret older sister. We’re pretty sure she is joking but what if???

My partner also doesn’t like floral prints but recently bought some other “summer patterns” like fish and a pink/purple plaid. There are other options out there.

For summer months I think Hawaiian shirts or other patterned shirts are cute. You can pair them with khaki, navy, or jean shorts for a cute look that is still cool.

So I found your comment about dreadlocks being Nordic interesting and looked it up. Wikipedia claims that oldest depictions of dreadlocks date to the Minoan Civilization on Crete. They are also found in Asia and the Americas which could indicate they are a much older (or common) hairstyle. All very interesting!

Half of the old testament just feels like health codes. This is make sure to not poop where you live. Other stuff is don’t eat foods that will make you sick.

My bad understanding is that Hollywood was giving actors contracts where they would own your likeness forever. They want to make 3D models of actors they could use in future projects without the actors consent. Effectively not needing to hire actors because they could use past 3D models.

If anyone has more info please correct me.

I think someone said it above but that’s probably because there were less French immigrants in the 19th century compared to Italian, German, and Irish. Italy and Ireland had famines and Germany had a revolution in the 19th century which led to lots of immigrants to the US. Many (maybe most) French immigrants were much earlier which may have led to decendents feeling fully American versus calling upon a more recent immigrant identity.

Anecdotally, I know a guy of French descent whose family had settled an area (forget where now) before the US existed. They chose to join the US (voted for their state to join the union) and felt fully American. It’s possible that many more older French settlers felt the same.

Totally agreed! However the ferris wheel was built by actual engineers not some rich guy who fired/sued his engineers into silence.

I’m going to miss Poem_for_your_sprog. Some were hilarious and others were emotional.
