Corn nuts aren't an Asian snack per se. They're originally from the US, known by everybody, and still moderately popular. It's like saying...being Asian, I get to have great beverages, like Coca Cola.

[–]FLarsen 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It does? I never knew.

I've used MSN from the beginning, but now I had to switch to facebook chat because everyone else is using it. Well, I use Pidgin for both, so it's not that much of a switch, but it's still a little annoying to have to switch protocol (my efforts converting r/f7u12 smileys to pidgin are all pointless now, but then there's also none of that custom smiley for every individual character crap, so I don't know).

Another annoying thing is that now everyone thinks I'm some kind of facebook enthusiast or something, seeing as I'm "online" whenever my PC is on, which it almost always is.

Yes it does. Try sending someone a link to any domain on no-ip.org (a popular free dynamic DNS service) and the message will be blocked by the server.

[–]elmphlemp 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

A guy goes to a doctor and says, "Doc, you've got to help me. My penis is orange." Doctor pauses to think and asks the guy to drop his pants so he can check. Damned if the guy's penis isn't orange. Doc tells the guy, "This is very strange. Sometimes things like this are caused by a lot of stress in a person's life."

Probing as to the causes of possible stress, the doc asks the guy, "How are things going at work?" The guy responds that he was fired about six weeks ago. The doctor tells him that this must be the cause of the stress. Guy responds, "No. The boss was a real asshole, I had to work 20-30 hours of overtime every week and I had no say in anything that was happening. I found a new job a couple of weeks ago where I can set my own hours, I'm getting paid double what I got on the old job and the boss is a really great guy." So the doc figures this isn't the reason.

He asks the guy, "How's your home life?" The guy says, "Well, I got divorced about eight months ago." The doc figures that this has got to be the reason for all of the guys stress. Guy says, "No. For years, all I listened to was nag, nag, nag. God, am I glad to be rid of that old bitch." So the doc takes a few minutes to think a little longer.

He inquires, "Do you have any hobbies or a social life?" The guy replies, "No, not really. Most nights I sit home, watch some porno flicks and munch on Cheetos."

I also eat salad with chopsticks. It, of course, has nothing to do with saving my fingers. But it's much better than stabbing the lettuce or tomatoes with a fork.

[–]koorb 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I did an experiment where I tried to use chopsticks with every meal. My conclusion was that Chopsticks are fun to play with and great for keeping your fingers clean for finger foods, but otherwise a fork is superior in most situations as it allows easier scooping, stabbing and requires less ordination and concentration when eating things like pasta, chicken nuggets, chips, fish. Also a fork is more versatile in that it allows for consumption of foods like pies, even without the use of a knife.

[–]lunacraz 11 points12 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I submit to you, that your skill with the chopsticks is not up to par. We eat soup noodles with chopsticks! Chicken nuggets? That's like perfect chopstick food?

The only downfall of chopsticks is with soup.

Come back when you can pick up peanuts and single grains of rice with chopsticks :X

[–]SgtSloth 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

peanuts and single grains of rice I find quite simple. Many grains of rice at the same time however I have a hard time with still.

Soup is simple because you just drink it form the bowl. No chopsticks needed. And a fork doesn't do much good either.

usually asian rice is sticky, so you can sort of grab clumps of rice with chopsticks (what I do is I have chopsticks parallel with a small space between, so I can sort of scoop a small clump of rice)

or, you could go total asian style, and do the same thing you said to do with the soup and put the bowl into your mouth and shovel it in

Seriously. He can't pick up chips or pasta with chopsticks? ಠ_ಠ

Pie is a legitimate fork/spoon food.

You can always click "formatting help" and get a rundown of common Reddit comment syntax. There's also a guide somewhere....

To use bold, put two astrisks before and after your comment.

<b></b> doesn't work here.

Uh I don't know if you're being serious or not. <strong> was there in the nineties as well, now one is supposed to use cascading style sheets and <div>.

Also, I don't know shit about web design and what I said was probably incorrect.

[–]Hedja 4 points5 points ago

I was trying to convey the era before Web 2.0 with websites made of GIFs and marquees. <b> was a regularly used then along with <u> and <i> because of their links with text editors for styling.

It was just a joke, I don't want to get into too many details outside of r/web_design but...

Though it is recommended to keep styling separate from the document, <strong> is still used to highlight keywords and other things in text and adds a strong emphasis so it can be considered non-aesthetic where as <b> is purely for emboldening. So <strong> would be more appropriate for "Holy shit." to add that strong emphasis.

Similarly, <em> adds an emphasis on words and isn't purely for looking italic like <i> is.

<strong> is just conventionally shown in bold, and <em> is conventionally italic. They're not really equivalents.

It's a bit hard to show the difference between a strong emphasis and a normal emphasis without sound. Hopefully it's obvious...

By the way, I'm not a professional or anything, it's just a hobby. So I could be wrong.

I am not asian, but I do this. I have people bring me chopsticks from restaurants they go to so I can eat my cheetos. I have even considered buying some chopsticks if but for the only reason of eating cheetos.

I've never tried it myself, but wouldn't it be pretty difficult to use chopsticks to pick up something solid and round like cheetos?

Wouldn't it be easier to just pour it into a bowl and use a spoon?
Maybe add some milk and make a cheeto-cereal

I used to get free chips when I volunteered in the giftshop at the hospital. I would get hot cheetos every time, and since the cafeteria also served sushi, I would eat my cheetos with chopsticks.

One day, a kid came in and stared at me while exclaiming to her father, "Daddy! He's eating his cheetos with chopsticks!" The father looks at me strange and asks what the hell was wrong with me. Jk, I don't remember what he said, I only remember the kid.

If you really like this idea you can get some beautifully made "cheetos tongs" on Etsy with a perfectly shaped grip! I sent one as a gift to my dad last x-mas.
