I don’t know who downvoted you but they obviously haven’t tried the PBJ. Those who know, know.

I’d have put all the jalapeño on one slice, and left the rest for someone else..

Reply to comment by knobber_jobbler in Apple Reportedly Working on Touchscreen Macs, Including MacBook Pro by Avieshek
My son is 9 years old, and currently uses my old XPS as his computer. He assumes every screen is a touchscreen - even my desktop monitor and large TVs. He would think a 2023 MacBook was something from before he was born.

Reply to [image] you are tomorrow by yetTear272
Yesterday-waetherman is an asshole. I can’t tell you how many times he’s left me behind on a deadline, with a mountain of work just because he wanted to sit on his lazy ass and watch tv or play video games, or just sit around and do nothing at all. Worse is when he either overeats or gets drunk and I’m the one who has to deal with the extra weight or hangover. I really hate him.
Luckily, tomorrow-waetherman is very understanding and very productive, so I’m sure I can just leave things for him to deal with and he can catch up.

Five times and you're still a terrible driver. Don't take that personally - most people in the USA are. What we need in this country is licensing standards like Germany.
waetherman t1_j2rri3p wrote
It's too damn easy to get a driver's license in this country - far too many people don't understand how to drive properly. Take this as an opportunity to learn to drive well - it's a skill that will serve you for the rest of your life.

"which sounds like I"m a psychopath and the worst parent ever"
Um, yeah, it doesn't just sound like that.
I mean, we all improvise this parenting thing and I'm right there with you in telling wacky tales, but this one really pushes it. Gotta check that stuff before it leaves your mouth, or at the very least roll it back real quick.

Reply to TIFU telling my gf my sexual fantasy by [deleted]
There's an old expression "don't shit where you eat" which can mean a lot of things but usually is used to mean don't have romantic relationships in the office. Even letting your gf meet alone with your coworker was a bad idea. Now it's off the rails. Out of your control. Hopefully the only thing that crashes is your relationship, and it doesn't take your job down with it.
Lesson learned, hopefully.

Reply to comment by Spicy_Sugary in Children refill a stranger’s empty Halloween candy bowl by TheCzar11
I had about 200 trick-or-treaters of all ages, and I was surprised how well behaved they were. But I was supervising the handouts, so I don't doubt a few of them would have dug deep if I hadn't been there. But yes, most are good.

After seeing how badly some trick-or-treaters behave, taking the whole bowl of candy, this was definitely uplifting. Someone raised these kids right.

Reply to comment by Knightbrah_II in [homemade] salty pancakes filled with a gorgonzola-spinach sauce by Knightbrah_II
I didn't say excessive, just more than I use. I make crepes pretty much 2-3x per week for my son/wife and my standard recipe (which is going to be confusing for your German brain) is 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup milk, 1 egg and 1 tablespoon butter. It's an easy recipe to remember before I've had my coffee. But I don't know - maybe it would be better with more eggs...

Yes, in America we'd call that a crepe. We eat them mostly sweet but some savory too. My recipe would have less eggs though - only 1 for that amount of flour.
In America, "pancake" implies a recipe that includes baking powder which makes them fluffy, like a cake.
Looks delicious BTW. I love gorgonzola and I bet it goes great with the spinach.
