Guys, it has a hole in the middle so you don't have to do that and get it all smudgy! This. All this. And people forgetting to put DVDs back in their cases
A Budgie she/her Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 People using frozen sheet pastry. Yes, I know that some types of pastry are very fiddly and take a long time to make, so frozen pastry has its place, but if you can make it using homemade pastry its a lot better and if you have the time there's really no excuse. Besides, shortcrust is actually really easy and you can make a lot of things from that.

You can add a dash of this and that and fudge your measurements and it's fine. But baking? Baking is science for hungry people. And if you get just the tiniest detail off, it ruins everything forever. Also, I have learned that the only way for me to successfully bake things is to offer the oven a blood sacrifice in the form of burning myself. 3
Delightful Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Re politics: "I havent done the research but I trust my gut. Too many people don't trust their intuition. I think I'm right" that.....that is not how facts work. That is not how reality works. You can't pretend something doesn't exist because your gut doesn't think so. Sure theres a place for instinct and intuition but just no. 6

Oversleep Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 Usually in movies: people scribbling and writing over maps with markers and pens and stuff. And I'm just sitting there and thinking "Sure, it's not like you're gonna need the details of the terrain you just covered with that thick line marking your route... Oh wait..." 3

While I'm sure he meant well, it completely backfired as people still had to work outside their best medium. If he'd said "do a project on this, and it can be an essay, poster, presentation, whatever", things would've gone much better. Of course, it didn't help that both he and the subject (Pre-Algebra) were horrifically dull.

Or buy headphones with a cable long enough to reach you're purse if you use one. However, with a cable that long you might have troubles despite having it under your clothes... Well, wireless headphones exist too
Oversleep Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Naah, I used to wear headphones under my T-Shirt, they still managed to fall out often.

If they're falling out of your ears, then a way to prevent that is by looping them around the back of your ears and wearing them upside-down
