    My son asked "what does a papaya taste like" yesterday and I said, "I don't know how to describe it, like a papaya"

    repeat about 4 times.

    " ...I'll go buy a papaya"

    And that's the story of why I went to the Asian supermarket yesterday, the end.

    Good dadding imo

    I always wonder what the grinch's deal is. Not the Jim Carrey grinch, which comes with a backstory, but the actual grinch.

    There was a canonical (?) special written by Dr Seuss where he even has a Grinch's Oath about how evil he's going be.

    What role in society does a grinch play? Why do they exist? Is there just the one, or many? Why hasn't he been arrested?
    what crimes did the grinch commit prior to stealing christmas

    being a green monster man? do you support a Who ethnostate

    Every once in a while I'll search for something that's not incredibly obscure (generally relationship- or sex- related) and stumble across message boards where randos are talking about something related and man, people have some very strong bad takes for things they have no experience with for basically every subject ever.

    Why lettuce when you can spinach, I say

    Spinach is the superior green leaf.

    Yeah, when I say "bag of salad" I mean "bag of spinach leaves", because big lol at the thought of buying a bag of lettuce.

    Why is the produce so cheap at the Asian market? I got huge tray of basil. 2 dollars. Huge tray of limes. 2 dollars. Huge tray of prickly pears. 1 dollar.

    I should go there for produce every day.

    Asian grocery stores are the best.

    But is the produce grown in magic landfill adjacent dirt?

    There were some signs up with wacky health claims about turmeric.

    and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them

    I called my brother who struggles with addiction and who almost certainly has bipolar disorder and he said he read the symptoms of bipolar disorder and said most of them were a “slam dunk” and described all these things in his life that were probably manic episodes or paranoia

    It’s very treatable! Most people just need a mood stabilizer

    God that was a relief. He wants his life to get better and this explains why he’s had such problems with drug addiction, can’t hold down a job, blows up in violent and scary ways etc

    Also this is a wild re-framing of my own life given that both of my brothers had bipolar disorder

    I was the only good kid OR I was the only kid without untreated bipolar disorder

    Jesus. What a nightmare for them.

    I know, [chat] is insane, amirite?

    Chat's hot takes are not sufficiently spicy. I'm talking takes like "if my boyfriend had another girl's number in his phone I'd punish him" with no qualifiers, or dozens of blanket "I'd break up with someone if I found out they ever did X" for things where X is completely immaterial to everything, or "I won't date anyone whose vagina can fit more than my dick," which I don't think the poster meant to imply that he'd never date anyone with a vagina, but if not I have some extremely essential information about vaginas to impart.

    The Cat in the Hat Grinch special is basically about how he likes to wreak general havoc.

    But even disregarding that, I'd be shocked if "stealing Christmas" is his first crime. That's a big one!

    Its a thing. A lot of the make up stuff has been from Korea and Japan recently. And led to a lot of not Asian folks doing make up that makes them look Asian as it accentuates already almond shaped eyes in certain groups.

    the way broar said it, i thought she'd pulled an Oli London
    Oli London is a British Internet personality and singer. They are most notable for identifying as a transracial Korean and for having multiple plastic surgery procedures since 2013 to attempt to look like Jimin, one of the members of the K-pop group BTS.

    Thankfully my job doesn’t let us enforce mask wearing so half our customers just don’t wear masks.

    I’d say another lockdown is imminent but I’m not sure the insane people are going to go for it
