On the other hand tomatoes and potatoes are the same family. You can even graft a tomato plant on top of a potato plant.

I don't think so, I will definitely go back and do not wish to move permanently in another instance.

As others have said I think this instance has a strong base of dedicated users, it's a "specialized" instance that has no equivalent.

Would alcohol be as popular if it weren't a beverage? in c/[email protected]

It's the opposite for me. I don't want the effect of alcohol, I just want a nice drink to complement my meal and is hard to find something that in neither sugary or alcoholic.

Man Bites Dog (C'est arrivé près de chez vous)

A mockumentary made by student filmmakers. The plot is that they are doing a documentary following the life of a serial killer.

The dark humor of this movie is incredibly disturbing but it's really a movie to watch.

The movie is available on archive.org : https://archive.org/details/man-bites-dog

I used the tool when looking for a house to buy.

I was looking in a mountainous area so the amount of sun a house gets in winter can vary quite a lot. Even a few hundred meters can make a huge difference in some cases.

I went to the casino with friends around 12 years ago. We agreed to get a few coins (around 20€ or so) at the beginning, play them and leave once we run out of coins.

Everyone lost their coins except me, I left with like 27€. It was the only time I went to the casino.

So now I can never go in a casino again ! I have a perfect record, I've always won against the casino and I intend to keep it this way my whole life.
