I think you’re missing my point. People love to give random “corrections” of things that may or may not be correct themselves. It seems like people just love to mindlessly parrot things.

I’m pretty sure everyone just makes this shit up

What I’m getting at is these large plastic jugs of water are not just purchased routinely by the majority of the population when grocery shopping.

I don’t think I buy the diet thing at all.
In the US, it’s commonplace for people to “get a tan” and people in general are not as protective over sun with the use of sunscreen or long sleeves/pants.
In many Asian countries, whiter skin is more desirable. People are a lot more diligent in wearing long sleeves and pants when spending time in the sun and etc.
The sun will age you a LOT.

Have you never heard of such a concept? Some people do it because they are going camping or in case the water goes out in a storm or rarely if the water from the tap is of dubious quality.
- Comment on Butter 2 days ago:
Is the infuriating part supposed to be that someone got to the butter before you? Or is it that you don’t like how it was scooped? What is the “correct” way if this is “incorrect”? Genuinely curious.
- Comment on When will the all white home with grey floors trend be over? 4 days ago:
I definitely feel the same. For years I had watched hone renovation shows with my mom and they looked nice but at the end they started to feel all soulless. Stumbled into this one home reno show several years back that was totally different. I was practically in awe…colors, wood tones, reasonably priced remodels! Idk if the show is still like that or not, but it really felt like a breath of fresh air.
I’m a Millennial, so I get that this stuff has been trending with people my age for the past decade or so, but I’ve just not been into it either.
Needed to buy a car several years ago and I went out of my way to try to find a car with a COLOR. It was a bit more of a hassle, but I’m glad I did.

I do think it looks pretty cool…but what about washing your hands? That’s the main issue with it I’d think.
- Comment on How do I drink more water? 2 months ago:
OP, are you sure you are actually dehydrated? Are you getting kidney stones?
Most people don’t need to actively concentrate on drinking liquids. Your body will tell you when you’re thirsty. It’s a weird internet fad where people try to drink like a gallon of water a day. It’s not necessarily. Your body tells you when it’s hungry and it tells you when you need to drink liquids. You’re not going to die from failure of the body signaling you to eat or drink.
Now, if you’ve had kidney stones, your doctor may tell you that you need to be drinking water.
Beyond that, excessive water drinking is just the latest fad right now. It’s not necessary.

Ah yeah that is what is happening in the OP. But I don’t understand the Stewie Griffin one.

Those worked for you? They have always been comically small such that they are barely usable, if at all.

…yes, and? I don’t get what your comment is trying to get at. I’m sorry that I’m not an uber paranoid luddite. I use modern tech. The name is in jest.

- Comment on Waffle House: Pull up then. 😐 3 months ago:
Interesting. I didn’t hear this part. Do you have more on this backstory? I watched a video from chair girl, but she didn’t mention instigating anything. I mean I definitely wouldn’t blame her for not wanting to admit it lol.
- Comment on Waffle House: Pull up then. 😐 3 months ago:
She got fired for this video, unfortunately. :(

And then they never take it out of the packaging to even look at it.
I don’t get it either.

I have heard the biggest risk of the surgery is basically “permanent” dry eyes. Might not sound like a big deal but to me it sounds like torture.

What’s the relation of this gif in your post to the static photo? It’s this an ad in the Duolingo app or something? It’s hard to make the connection to that.
