Shitposter while I tend to two babies. Maybe when I have my life back, I’ll help us get a few more niche communities back?

  • No, you’re right. Chipotle isn’t the highest grade food but there’s a reason it’s in a category above, say, Taco Bell. It’s servings are a little big, but it’s not unhealthy per se, except some of the more gimmicky items like “queso”, lol.

    They do have a bad rep, but the hoopla about it giving you diarrhea is probably more because it sits out too long and/or spicy; fast casual is basically pre-prepped lower tier casual chain restaurant food (e.g. Olive Garden, Applebee’s, or whatever).





  • And yet, if you have any illness you actually should still take that day off to recovery. Capitalism doesn’t let us, but it’s still good practice as you may be contagious and infect your coworkers as well as the kind people on public transit.

    Ah… I kinda miss quarantine. Healthiest time of my life without people giving me the flu every fucking year.

    As others mentioned, different companies. More importantly, for non-US folks, as far as taste goes Dove is a bit better quality than Hershey garbage and even other Mars brands (M&M, Snickers) as it’s their “premium” chocolate, but it’s still pretty waxy and low quality overall. Given the price, that shouldn’t be surprising, though, you can get a bag of the stuff for just a few dollars.

    American chocolates are generally sweeter, but not always low quality (nor vomitty, like Hershey’s); it can be quite good, especially if eaten slowly and with coffee or something. We sometimes bring See’s chocolates for Japanese relatives for a bit of a novelty, and funny enough a few of them actually like it more but I assume that might be an Okinawan thing.

    Anyway, it’s like comparing a fast food burger to a restaurant burger, they’re completely different animals, figuratively speaking (and sometimes, literally, hehe).





  • It uh… It actually gets considerably worse? But sure, faster, around halfway.

    8 chapters of open world, remaining is more like FFXIII linear gameplay with a story that obviously was written by someone else. The pacing changes dramatically, too. You’ll know the halfway mark because you will be warned you can’t go back to the open world.

    The DLC has it’s moments, I guess. You kind of need it to fully get the story.
