AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to memes in Merry Christmas

Mr. Bubbles didn’t have a soul? 😭

I always heard that you do not want to smoke pot with a hookah because you’ll gunk up your nice glassware - get a proper bong instead, and just use shisha (the flavored tobacco) in the hookah.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to asklemmy in Indian Food is praised worldwide and celebrated in countries like the UK and Germany. Americans, why do all your comedy shows rag on Indian food?

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen jokes about Indian food, but if you’re right I would guess it’s for the same reasons Taco Bell gets the same jokes - it’s still spicy by “mayonnaise is spicy” standards and (at least my orders) are usually bean heavy and that’s a lot of fiber by average American diet standards. The joke is really on us, not the Indian food.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to risa in It's just a song, right?

I took a year of French in middle school. My class learned this song, it’s brutal, lol.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to 196 in I hate designer shoes. I hate designer shoes. I hate designer shoes. I hate designer shoes.

I’ve heard Solovair is now making the original boots of you want something that’s at least rumored to be as good as the old doc martens.

I’m like 95% sure I’ve seen that somewhere around Orlando, and the sign looks like a Turnpike sign, but the turnpike doesn’t go to Tampa unless you go turnpike to I-4…

EDIT: there’s a less crunchy image on Reddit, apparently FDOT posted it to Twitter. That is definitely a Florida Turnpike sign (sorry for linking to Reddit)

EDIT 2: Found the original tweet via wayback machine, which was deleted by FDOT (gee, I wonder why?) and it’s somewhere in Palm Beach County (Lyons Road to the Turnpike), not Orlando.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to asklemmy in Can I get UberEats to stop recommending to "bundle" alcohol from a liquor store to your order?

No, but it’s been interpreted in relevant cases already, the courts told Domino’s that their website needed to be screen reader accessible because of the ADA. That was in 2019 though.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to risa in Can someone open this pickle jar?

I love Trek but I don’t really care for McFarlane’s sense of humor, is the Orville worth checking out anyway?

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago (edited 6 months ago) to 196 in Seasons G(rule)sons

Kinda sounds like HG Wells the Time Machine with the Eloi and the Morlocks. With apparently the same amount of cannibalism. Weird that that happened twice.

EDIT: Just read the forward of Man After Man - the Time Machine is name dropped and quoted, and this seems to be a sequel of sorts?

EDIT 2: What is this book?

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to asklemmy in What is the profession you wouldn't work, even for a day and even if paid your weight in gold?

Executioner for the US prison system. In some states it’s a real job, and it’s not a doctor, it’s just whoever is sociopathic enough to want to do it.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to games in ConcernedApe (Stardew Valley): A ton of progress on 1.6 last month, it's (self-imposed) extreme crunch mode, nose to the grindstone (raw nose) mode.

And the second best time is today. It’s such a great game I own it on three different platforms.

AlligatorBlizzard, 6 months ago to games in Weekend PC Game Deals: Freebies from Ubisoft, massive charity bundles, and a lot more

I have Death and Taxes on Switch, it’s a fun little game that’s definitely worth playing if you get the bundle.

I’ve played a bit of Superhot on VR, and it’s one I’d definitely pick up if I ever get an Index, but I’m honestly not that interested in if it’s not VR, it’s not a genre I usually play.

I’ve got A Short Hike on my wishlist, that looks good, and some of the colony sim games look entertaining.

I’ve had deep fried Snickers before, it’s a common thing to see at fairs, they’re a tasty heart attack on a stick.

This isn’t significantly more revolting than a standard Bloody Mary; the entire idea of tomato juice is disgusting, it’s just thin and bland tomato soup and if you chill it it’s even worse. It’s a waste of vodka, not good vodka mind you, but you could have had a perfectly fine screwdriver with that vodka!

Huh, TIL, I thought they were German - I’m in the US and the only time I’ve seen Jaffa cakes is when Aldi sells them as part of their German Küche line.
