I don't know if anyone else can relate to this, but this is what the arrow on those self-applied airplane luggage tag stickers feels like to me. For a while I kept peeling off the wrong half because the arrow isn't pointing in a direction that makes sense to me. Iirc, the arrow is pointing towards the part of the sticker you don't peel off, while at the same time being on the part that you do peel off. To me, the arrow should be pointing towards the part you peel off; that seems more intuitive to me for some reason.

Propose to my gf.

I've never seen someone get so worked up about the 18th century opera composer Christoph Willibald Gluck.

Where do you buy lead foil?

This is just your average scene from season 3 of Strange New Worlds.

I can sort of relate. I'm fat as fuck, but I really like salads and veggies. When I go out to eat, my (much smaller) partner will order like a steak and potatoes, and I might order like a chicken cobb salad, not because I'm dieting, but I because I really wanted a dinner salad. And like half the time they give the salad to my partner and give me the steak.

I recently became aware of the "performative male" stereotype. Basically, if you're a guy who doesn't dress the way most men dress and you like to read books in public, you're just "performing" in order to attract women.

I think it's the whole anti-intellectualism aspect of the stereotype that irks me the most (it being shameful somehow for a guy to read).

In some cases Tik-Tokers are filming guys just sitting alone at like a Starbucks reading a book, bothering nobody, and acting like they caught a predator.

It reminds me of that old Bill Hicks anecdote where he's at a diner in the deep south reading a book, and some dude exclaims "looks we got a reader!" as if it were something peculiar.

Here's a good critique of it if you're OOTL https://youtube.com/watch?v=b3jIgdbVjr4

Did she open up the packaging and spray directly on the food? Article doesn't say that. Usually food delivery comes in a bag that's stapled or taped shut, and the items in the bag are in their own closed containers, except maybe for fries. I'm just not clear on how the spray could have gotten onto the food.

G to E is a major sixth, not a major seventh. That's the mistake. It then misidentifies the chord because of this.

Yeah, with chords you generally try to mentally rearrange the notes such that they stack in thirds from bottom to top in the process of identifying the chord.

Wow, I had completely forgotten about Ain't It Cool News. It's still running.
