Firefly’s use of “in universe” curses are a good example.

Also, The Good Place

Hahaha - that sh^%s working perfect…

Those are low-to-mid tier at best though

So is Hershey’s. It seemed fair to me to compare like to like

A more appropriate comparison to chocolate with butyric would be to chocolate without it.

That was the comparison I made. I thought I was pretty explicit about that in my comment. I count myself lucky that I can taste it and I enjoy it. Some folks just prefer a simpler flavor profile.

I’ll readily admit I’m a bit of an odd duck, though. I can appreciate and enjoy more challenging foods than most.

People love to bring up the vomit thing, but butyric acid is also naturally found in milk, butter, Parmesan cheese, and even papaya. Things a lot of Hershey’s detractors would claim to like.

I like don’t hate Hershey’s nor do I think it’s the best. I also like European chocolate like Cadbury, Tony’s, etc as well but they do seem a bit flat or one-note in comparison. Sometimes that’s what I want. I can also understand how if that’s what you’re used to any deviation could be off putting.

Cling wrap, the store brand is absolute garbage

…unless that store is Costco.

Kirkland Signature cling wrap is the best. And the “Easy Cutter” is the best thing to ever happen to cling wrap.

Arabic is right to left, but interestingly the place values of numbers are still left to right from highest to lowest

That’s exactly how I felt reporting it — debated it a bit but the personal insult was so unnecessary…

I would say he has been very successful. He managed to become a billionaire

I guess we have different measures of success.

If I ever become a billionaire and am not actively figuring out how to effectively redistribute my wealth, you have my permission to kill me.

We could certainly use one here in Coastal Carolina, but we’re just left to fend for ourselves…

Contact your local mosquito control agency

Y’all have mosquito control agencies?!

Yes! This is also my understanding. I’ve even experienced hail in hot tropical countries.

In the U.S. sleet bounces off the windshield instead. I think we’d call Canadian sleet wet snow. OP said we’d call it “wintry mix” which maybe some of us would but I always thought “wintry mix” was when you were on the line between snow and rain and you just got a bit of everything; snow, sleet, slush, freezing rain, etc…

Where are you from? Based on your and OPs descriptions I’m guessing a Commonwealth country.

Being from the U.S. I’d have described it as frozen drops of rain.

I didn’t know it required a freeze-thaw-freeze cycle either. I’d always been under the impression it was just rain that froze before hitting the ground.

I don’t see how it would be different in that regard than 69ing which I’ve always enjoyed giving and receiving of

Are you saying you’d be more focused on giving yourself pleasure than romantic partner?
