Mine is plain/lightly salted Doritos/tortilla chips dipped/scraped in unsalted butter.

I'm now wondering whether this is a little too specific of a question and I just really needed somewhere to get this off my chest...

2 pieces of cinnamon bread bread with tostitos in between.

Picking my nose, then eating the booger.

I am in my 30s.

What the heck is a plain dorito

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

A tortilla chip.

Doritos are to tortilla chips as Potato Chips are to Flavored Potato Chips. They both rely on a dusting of flavor on a type of chip.

Sugar in a raw tomato. It’s really fun to eat and grosses a LOT of people out!

I know this will seem like a joke but legitimately asking: what is this exactly?

CONSTANT MASTURBATION

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Ruffles potato chips and nacho cheese dip. My Jean size doesn’t accept it.

I smoke weed every day. Casual marijuana consumption is definitely socially acceptable here (I'm in Canada where it's legal) but I've been high more often than not for the past 8 years or so.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Rookie numbers! Going on 30 years myself down here and it isn’t even legal!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Same here! Look up CHS. It’s awfully rare, and IIRC is more prevalent in men than women. It sucks. A T-break every now and again is healthy for the body, mind and spirit.

I dunno, I don't really do guilt beyond truly bad acts done by choice.

That being said, I am a chocolate milk fiend.

I have to strictly limit myself or I'd drink nothing else, and not eat anything useful nutritionally.

Chocolate in general is my one true vice. I don't drink, I don't use recreational drugs, I'm monogamous (and happily so), I quit tobacco, and even caffeine beyond trace amounts in decaf. But you try an take chocolate out of my life, and I will fuck you up.

I'll even accept Hershey's if there's nothing else available.

But chocolate milk? Fuck me running. Cold, sweet, chocolatey goodness. I will walk right the fuck over infants and kittens if there's a cup on the other side. Puppies? I dunno, I think I'd try to step between them, but I'm not making promises.

Home made is incredible. But my particular weaknesses are the pet trumoo, and the promised land midnight. They use thickeners that up the silky texture. The promised land stuff is meant to be more like melted ice cream, and it succeeds.

Which, don't even ask me how quick I can kill a pint of hagendaz chocolate. Don't blink is all I'll say there.

I have no guilt involved there, but holy fuck is it an indulgence.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

I feel you on everything but the thickeners, I can’t drink the ones with that, feels weird.

Playing stupid phone games. Really mind-numbing, no talent required games. Currently into "Whiteout Survival". I am over 60 y.o.

It scratches an itch.

Making random screeching noises. I love it so much. But obviously I can’t do it around everyone all the time.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My SO and I make weird noises at each other constantly. I also make weird noises around my siblings.

I bathe 2-3 times a day. A quick one in the morning to get me out of the house, or I just skip it if I don't have time. Cycle to work, real shower there. Then a nice long bath in the evening where I just soak and watch anime. Or browse Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I like that end of the day bath too. Must be the Japanese in me. I feel some guilt over the water usage, but then again, I'm soaking in there for half an hour. If I did the same in a shower, I'd probably use even more water right? Also, the more you weigh, the more water you displace, meaning you need less to fill the tub. So it's a rare case of weight gain actually reducing resource consumption. Thank you Archimedes!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I feel bad about the water usage too, so I limit the length of the showers to no more than 5 minutes. The baths can be an hour long.

[–] [email protected] 56 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There's nothing socially unacceptable about this. This is environmentally unacceptable

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (8 children)

I know. But... I don't know how to not do it and either not make my bed smell or smell at the office.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

if you've just bathed before going to bed, why do you need two baths before work in order to not smell? this sounds like there's some kind of underlying medical condition lol

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I'm not the other guy, but for me, I need a shower in the morning no matter what, otherwise I can't wake up and I don't feel physiologically ready to start the day. Also I feel sticky in the morning, because my skin gets oily.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well the morning shower I sometimes skip, but if it's an especially cold day and the house is freezing, then I might sneak one in just to get enough motivation to leave the house

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Taking 2-3 showers a day when you’re working up a sweat isn’t killing the environment, don’t feel bad about it. If you’re worried about your personal water consumption then reducing the amount of meat/dairy you eat and not participating in fast fashion will do more than never showering again ever would.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah then I still regularly wear the clothes I bought 10 years ago, patched armpit holes and all!

I haven't actually done this in over ~~twenty~~ thirty (fuck I'm old) years, but while thinking about it, I recalled my childhood...

I used to dip extra buttery popcorn in chocolate milk. I fucking loved it. Honestly the thought of it makes me slightly nauseous now...

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's fucking nasty

When I was a kid I would take cold hot dogs and grind them on the wheels of my toy truck, take the ground hot dog meat and make a taco out of it with American cheese slices.

Truck

This reminds me of how I used to eat a spoonful of chunky peanut butter and then add a glug of maple syrup

I'm trying to picture this. You eat it like cereal?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

nope. I ate it with a bag of popcorn next to me and a glass of chocolate milk next to me. I would take like three popped corns in my fingers and dip them in the milk like an oreo and let them soak up the chocolately milkey goodness.

Here’s a minor one:

Dry ramen. Crush up the bag a bit, dump in the powder, shake and enjoy.

What are you, twelve?

No, why do cool adults require their noodles so hydrated?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I don't even use the flavor packet when it's dry, I save it for the next time I actually cook the noodles.

I just like the crunchy.

Cigars. It's a common topic of judgement, as if I don't know it's an expensive hobby with increased risk of cancer. I just love them, and the rituals involved.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I'm an academic who no longer smokes (thanks grad school...) You meet a huge variety of folks in smoker's pits. The folks a university relies on a hell of a lot more than at least half of faculty. I'm thankful for the daily, sometimes hourly, rituals that taught me that.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I knew a very smart manager who quit smoking but still used to go hang out in the smoking area just to stay in touch with everything. I’ve learn more in 10 minute conversations while smoking with coworkers than entire week long seminars.
