5. Electrocute(if you're into that sort of thing)

the difference being that hot dogs are tasty and tofu tastes like gelatinous sadness

I'd love to see an edit of the Cosby Show that removes Cosby in his entirety from it. No other changes, just a blank white space and awkward silence wherever he was. I feel like that'd be entertaining for an episode or two.

I've provided you with a source that you choose to ignore. It's a standard part of etiquette code, whether you like it or not.

I have always felt like that was very insulting. Its like saying, thanks for cooking, but you never season things properly, so I will do it myself.

To the vast majority of people, seasoning your food without tasting it is the exact same ballpark.

So a made up group.

Some people are lacking in common knowledge. Your ignorance to something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The majority of people know about. Etiquette classes will always teach this. It's widely regarded as a standard rule. I even provided you a source to look into it. I'm sorry that you weren't taught proper etiquette and feel personally attacked because people might hold you to a standard that has always been present, but that you didn't know about.

Autocondimenting in a restaurant is a dangerous pursuit several hot-tempered celebrity chefs refuse to put a cruet on the table and react with blind fury should any of their customers request salt. Salt, as Mr Ramsay or his like would point out, has already been added to the dish by someone whose taste buds have been honed by many years of fine-tuning. You have paid X hundred pounds for this experience, he would go on to say (quite reasonably), and now you insult me by suggesting that this fabulous dish, the pinnacle of haute cuisine, could do with a bit more salt.

Dunno why you seem to hate chefs,

but they acknowledge that people have different tastes. That's why salt and pepper are provided with a dish at most restaurants, and often other condiments as well. So that people can season the food to their preference. But if somebody hasn't tasted the food yet, how could they know how much salt to add?

They're drawing conclusions based on if someone follows etiquette rules that are nearly universally agreed on and known.

Nah, this isn't "etiquette"

You are objectively incorrect. It is a standard part of basic etiquette rules. That's not something that can be debated.

If you think "keeping your elbows off the table" isn't something that needs to be honored, you don't have to follow it. But you wouldn't argue that it isn't part of basic etiquette. It's the same with this. Just because you disregard it doesn't magically make it not a standard etiquette rule.

I thought it meant you nuke him from orbit.

Do you also think it's totally fine to strike up a conversation with someone wearing headphones?

Do you see no issue with people that loudly burp or fart at the dinner table?

Would you judge someone that combs their hair differently than someone that lets it be messy?

There was the case of the Chicago executive who turned down a major publishing company post because the president salted his steak lightly before trying it. The steak may not have needed seasoning. How could I work for someone who makes such arbitrary and hasty decisions? the candidate asked.

I never understood the 'Majora's Mask is stressful' sentiment. I'll admit myself that I'm a very highly strung individual. It doesn't take much to stress me out at all. However, Majora's Mask has never ever caused me stress in any form, even when doing challenge runs of the game. It's my favourite game of all time and I replay it on an almost monthly basis.

The fuck is wrong with you? The point is that this happens to plenty of people and theyre not alone. Why the fuck would you mock solidarity amongst victims?

No, the whole #metoo movement started out where everything was lumped into one gigantic category. Many women were lumping catcalling and into the same category as sexual assault. On social media there were many instances of women lumping persistent men asking them out as #metoo.

Instead of asking why Superman can't be black, ask yourself why he should be. There's no reason besides pointless diversity with no actual artistic purpose or value.

lol I travelled to the other side of the planet for 2 weeks for literally 1/3 of that. You think you need to spend triple to escape poverty? Are you high?

Well look at this fancy mother fucker

Every trip I want to take is worth more than 5000$

What do you think youre better than me?
