- Comment on I have been told ever since I was a little shit that when you die you go to heaven first wait in line for St Peter to judge you at the pearly gates? Is this in the Bible? I thought god did judging 1 day ago:
…the St. Peter part is made up…
Which stands in stark lack of contrast with the rest of the bible.
- Comment on Here are some tips for making fried rice: 1 day ago:
Which would be a poor but not completely unreasonable way to describe what happens when you squish a clump to split it into individual grains so the oil can cook it evenly instead of making an oily white rice ball that has a fried outer surface.

I’ll assume they’re talking about breaking up clumps instead of the thing a serial killer would do and then just phrased it poorly.
- Comment on How do I get over fear of cooking? 3 days ago:
Might be worth picking up some fire safety equipment if that might give you some peace of mind and reduce that barrier a little. Not talking about parking a shiny red fire truck in your driveway but a small kitchen fire extinguisher shouldn’t be too hard to come by. There are also stovetop extinguisher canisters that go off automatically when exposed to intense heat (fine for normal cooking but intended to be activated by an uncontrolled fire).
If you haven’t seen it already, I’d also recommend watching a video or two about how to control grease fires. Reading about it is one thing but seeing the demonstration of why not to use water really drives the point home. Scary for sure but the other side of it is that you learn how to handle one of the worst-case scenarios so it can be a confidence boost moving forward.

- Comment on How do I search for this specific post? 1 week ago:
I did a search of !guitars@lemmy.world for the word “sorry” (figured it wouldn’t be in as many posts as “guitar” or “learning”).
Here’s the first result: Really dumb questions about learning guitar (sorry)

- Comment on What does this emoji mean? Is this a British thumbs up? 3 weeks ago:
I’m surprised they made an emoji for something as obscene as this but you know that “two in the pink, one in the stink” thing for the shocker? This is along the same lines: One in the pink, one giving your lady a thumbs up to tell her you’re a chill dude and having a good time.
Doesn’t work as well on guys unless he’s flexible or has a bunch of strategically-placed mirrors.

That’ll happen after a solid meatspinning. Merry-go-rounds can be pretty dangerous too if you’re not careful.

I want to believe that the kids mentioned in posts like this are playing along with their parents’ delusions so they don’t have to sit through another lecture about how the Federal Reserve is a Ponzi scheme and they’re chemtrailing us with fluoride.
