Plain ol cooked chicken doesn’t hold sauce very well but the breading on deep fried wings does

I believe it’s less about the calories and more about how your body processes it

Is it really more expensive in today’s horrible housing market?

Boomers. Same reason why they’d much rather go to concerts for halfway decent cover bands of their childhood favorites than put any effort into discovering new music

replacing them with individual personalized echo chambers

Which really wouldn’t be that bad if instances were more clear about how they operate. Like, on the user signup page, there should be a big ol checkbox saying “I UNDERSTAND THAT ANYTHING THATS NOT A POSITIVE POST ABOUT COMMUNISM WILL GET ME BANNED” or whatever

• Trauma, to describe a negative experience

The spike of interest in mental health over the past couple decades (in the West) has certainly been a net positive, but an unfortunate side effect - one that is true every time science becomes trendy - is that technical terms get grossly misused/overused. Sometimes it’s malicious, like someone exaggerating a self-diagnosed condition to get out of work; other times it’s benign, like someone using a term which they genuinely think they understand but the reality is only half so. If you recognize someone as being the latter, just try to ignore it or gently guide them to better terminology; else, if they’re being the former… well that’s more complicated, but just don’t be a dick about it because that’s never changed anyone’s mind

Post-smartphones, it’s now vice-versa and unless we remind them to put their phones on silent beforehand, their phones inevitably erupt in alarms at full volume reminding them to call Marianne back or whatever

1 decent exclusive every other year

Absolutely hyperbole. Just last year, we got Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Wonder, Pikmin 4, and Advance Wars Reboot. Doesn’t matter if these aren’t your kind of games, they sold well, were critically acclaimed, and won awards.

lag behind the industry by 5-10 years

For graphics, sure. For creativity, accessibility, and all the other things that matter in video games? They lead the industry

This is hilarious because the latest Cod update prevents some Xbox players from booting into the game if they have a headset plugged in

Just another group of people that are gonna give unions a bad rep, I’m afraid

When there’s barriers and a line of guys are waiting cuz they’re obeying the gap rule, I love seeing their looks of confused frustration as I walk right up to one of the free urinals. Not my fault yall are fragile and insecure
