I believe there’s a different technical term for mouth farts.

This is precisely the answer I was looking for, though I didn’t know it when I asked. Thank you!

Not for everyone. Antiperspirants irritate my skin. There are deodorants that work well for me, like Dove.

There’s a whole subgenre of D&B called Halftime that’s full of slow (by D&B standards) bangers, as well as plenty Trap, Dubstep, etc that fits the bill.

Cake - Ivy Lab

Era - RL Grime

Ruffhouse - J:Kenzo

The Nomad - Noisia, Mono/Poly

Move It Along - Audio

Drone Warfare - Eprom

Work For Nothing - Decimal Bass

Ego Death - TMSV

Ouija - Ankou

You may not agree with all of them, but tried to find plenty of examples to make a point. Hard not to bang to most of these.

This guy Jesse on Alone Season 5 was running out of food and had read about native tribes creating bread from tree bark, so he stripped some off a pine tree and ate it. It seemed edible but hard to pass. The video shows the aftermath, basically he had to tap out and be rescued due to severe abdominal pain. However, apparently it is a thing, I’m not sure how you could do it in a way your stomach can handle though, and most likely it has to be specific species of trees.

Imagine doing that while someone’s having coffee shits a stall over. Imagine being on the other side of the line. Maybe you should drink more coffee and the problem will solve itself.

I mean, I didn’t take notes or anything, but given how much I played, looking back I think it was some sort of coping mechanism. Moving can be tough on kids.

Always thought this guy was a boss!

Wow, I totally forgot about this one. I used to play it all the time when I was a kid. I think I bonded with it because my family moved to California around that time and I had trouble fitting in (a-la Daniel-san), so I think partially it was my way of simulating being a native as silly as that sounds. Anyway, I had the NES version, but your write-up is making me want to try a Sega ROM of it. Thanks for the nostalgia blast!

And those are all a “deal-breaker in friendships” for you? I think we all realize people find all sorts of reasons to use us-vs-them mindset, that’s not really the point of this conversation. What reasons you choose to make your friends or otherwise be decent to someone decides whether or not you’re being immature or even a bigot.

This is some sort of childish tech-classist B.S. Like you wouldn’t talk to a friend because of the shoes they wore or the car they drove. Who cares about people like that?
