Unfortunately I have the gene, but onions are great though.

Cilantro is one of the best things in life.

There’s a generic thing with cilantro that makes some people think it tastes like soap. I don’t have it, but my wife does. I hardly notice cilantro, but even a little ruins a dish for her.

For the longest time I didn’t even know what cilantro tasted like. I thought maybe it tasted like nothing to me. The reason for this was once when my wife and I were at a Mexican restaurant, I got some green salsa. I dipped my chip in and complained to my wife that it tasted like nothing. She dipped a chip in and started gagging. She said it tasted like pure liquid cilantro.

One day I was cutting some cilantro for some tacos I was making at home, and I took a big bite. It didn’t taste like nothing to me. I just always associated the flavor with lime because anytime I have something with cilantro, I always squeeze a lime over it.

I always thought that was mildly interesting.

im pretty sure i could eat an onion like an apple. i LOVE them

I hate both, and I lasted a week in Mexico city, but learned how to request those things off, if I could.

Oh I’m quite aware, tomatoes too.

Every little bit I eat them to see if I like them (or can force myself to) but I just haven’t been able to yet. I really wish I could just get over my dislike but I can’t seem to enjoy the taste.

I read reviews before buying on day 2, basically. Sure, I expected some bugs, as the reviewers warned. I barely got any, just some visual glitches during cutscenes. Still, I would give the game a solid 8/10.

Came out of my playthrough to everyone raging about everything about the game. Couldn’t even give an honest opinion about the game without being downvoted to oblivion because people who never even played the game refused to believe the game was playable at all.

The hype backlash was a serious issue for that game. People expected it to be something it never could have been.

Cyberpunk 2077 was an incredible game until I tried to drive a car.

Same. I played it on stadia and it was pretty stable. When I went to that other site to see what people were saying I was absolutely shocked at the amount of bugs and hate it was getting.

I borrowed it from a library for a PS4. It was genuinely unplayable if you actually wanted to play it, but for laughing at the bugs and whatnot it was great.

Would’ve been pissed if I had paid anything for it.

To be it was truly bad, but not in a rage-y way, only in a “Wow, this is it?! All this hype, all this wait, and this tepid fart is all we’re getting at the end?”-way.

I finished it - which granted isn’t difficult given how brief the main quest is - then went through some specific side quests. I will give it credit, some of the side quests have really cool characters and are overall really well done. And the graphics can be pretty as hell in some if not most areas. But ~everything else, the main quest, the writing, the story, the city in itself, the software quality, the combat system, the upgrade system, it’s all there, it’s largely functional, but just barely so.

So yeah, just massively disappointing given how much work must have been behind it. I don’t even want to know how often management yanked the team around and made them re-do massive parts of it, the bugginess and tonal disjointedness of the finished game hints at it plenty.

Special shoutout to the driving, which highlights how the game was clearly not meant to have this until relatively late in development.

I played it on Stadia, completed it within like two months after the release, never encountered any bug

I LOVE pineapple on pizza. The best pizza recipe IMO is BBQ sauce, with chicken breast, bacon, and pineapple.

It’s such tired posturing as well, like yeah fine whatever

Nobody actually hates it, it’s just a joke that’s been dead for 3 decades and beaten into the ground

My wife and I lived in Germany for 2 years. We went to Munich for a weekend and had an excellent historical walking tour across the city, provided for free by our hostel.

During that tour, we learned that pretty much every stereotype Americans have for Germans (lederhosen, yodeling, beer and brats, etc.) are actually Bavarian culture, not German. And Germans are actually quite offended at the confusion we have between their culture and Bavarian culture.

We also learned that Bavaria used to be quite wealthy and powerful, and intended to split off into their own independent nation at one time. But then Hitler set up shop there and made it his headquarters for the Third Reich. The city was absolutely decimated during WWII, and when the war was over, they not only had to rebuild from scratch, but also had to contribute to rebuilding the rest of Germany, as well as paying for war damages for Europe and all Allied nations, etc. Their wealth was pretty much depleted and their hope of being an independent nation was gone.

Until I started working for a bavarian company (I live in Hamburg), I didn’t realize how warranted much of this resentment is. 😅

At least it isn’t Bielefeld, amirite?

Antisemite Aiwanger, extensive preventative jail, attempts on dismantling state equalisation payments, lack of secularisation, decades-long opposition to queer legalisation, abortion, social security, asylum in general et cetera

Come to the rest of the world, no problems here .

Honestly if every brand would stop making their own shitty launchers and filling their phones with bloatware this would mostly not happen anymore I think. Pure Android on Google Pixel phones is hands down better than every other version.

It is only bad in the sense that it could be so much more, but it certainly is the best we have for phones atm.

I use it but often I hate it and random, in my opinion shit, UX decisions that are forced on me.

Rickrolling wasn’t ‘ha ha you listened to an overplayed song.’ It was the punchline to successful trolling. You’d wind people up with a story and provide alleged video evidence. Suddenly they’d know they were duped. The tension, the emotional investment, was yanked out from under them. It’s the comedy version of a jump scare.

Basically, do you know who Shittymorph is?

But this being the internet, a lot of people Did Not Get It, and thought the entire gag was the mild annoyance of unexpected exposure to some above-average pop hit. The meme died because of their clueless misuse and overuse.

The original Rick roll was not a happy YouTube video link. It was a JavaScript bomb that you couldn’t get out of. Some people knew how to terminate their browser process, most people had to reboot.

Biking is based. The benefits far outweight the cons compared to the other private transport we have today. I thought the hate was almost exclusive to cars from what I’ve seen which is understandable. At least in comparison to bikes.

Knowing that there are motorists out there who will maliciously put your life at risk because you’re on a bicycle is insane to me.

Super weird how weird people are about bikes and bike lanes here.

redditors are the worst about it. If you post in your town’s subreddit about bike lanes, all the landlords crawl out of the woodwork to talk shit about bicycles and go on paranoid rants about how drivers are oppressed by bike lanes.

Here’s the problem: for the average consumer, more than five minutes of exercise in a bicycle is apparently excruciatingly painful.

Who doesn’t like bicycles? I mean, cyclists are often very reckless, dangerous people on the road, and bike lanes are sometimes more of a safety hazard.

Bikers get a lot of hate because a lot of them act like pedestrians. (i.e. riding on sidewalks, crosswalks, not stopping at stop signs, not signalling turns or shoulder-checking) But then if you do all of that dumb law-abiding stuff like some kind of responsible citizen, people in cars honk at you, give you their right of way, or worse!

I love riding my bike, but one thing I and everyone else heavily disagree on is riding in the street. You can tell me it’s safer (somehow) than the sidewalk until you’re blue in the face, I’m not doing it and I certainly don’t feel safer doing it, and I’m definitely going to be pissed at anyone doing it in a road I’m trying to drive down.

Edit: I almost forgot the carried over thing from Reddit where anything ambiguous is automatically the worst possible extreme, so I want to clarify that “being pissed” is just complaining to myself in my car, I’m not going to commit vehicular manslaughter because someone’s in the road on their bike.

Oddly I really liked it as a kid and now I can’t stand it.

Yeah part of why I liked Halloween was those bags of black and orange jelly beans. The only jellybean flavors I liked as a kid. I love licorice, anise, fennel. My kids do too. They ask for fennel instead of onion in a lot of foods.

I do understand people not liking it though, it’s a strong and odd flavor. Like cantaloupe.
