I can fit a baking dish in it so I can use it for many of the things I might want to bake in my oven (lasagna, casserole, small batch of cookies/muffins) but don’t want to heat the entire oven for. It fits a standard frozen pizza, I’ve occasionally baked bread or rolls in it. One of my most frequent uses would be the broiler setting where I just want to quickly brown the top or melt cheese onto something.

One of the drawbacks of my current air fryer is that the fan blows so hard I have to make sure that what I put in there is heavy and secure enough not to get blown around. My son was heating something and put a piece of cheese on it to melt. The cheese was definitely NOT where it was supposed to be when it melted.

Convection toaster ovens have been around for a long time, but for the most part have been “toaster oven plus a little fan.” Air fryers showed up with an emphasis on I’M BLOWING ALLLLL THE HOT AIR!!! I’ll make frozen mini pizzas in my air fryer and have to stab the pepperoni with toothpicks or they end up God knows where lol.

I have both, but would be willing to just have the toaster oven version if it stepped up its blowing game. Until the day comes when one of the appliances craps out on me, I’ll use both.

For a real vitamin c boost cut the milk with orange juice!

Someone leaves me out of a group chat due to the color of my text bubble, I doubt there was any benefit to being included in the conversation anyway.

For the love of God could you not?

Braising low and slow would be a better method. It won’t completely break down, but the rest of the connective tissue should melt in your mouth.

The urethra is still separate from the digestive system though.

I work in hospice and see a variety of conditions. Some people in their 60’s with significant mobility issues that are chronically exhausted, but then there’s the patients in their 90’s who just recently started cutting back on social events and activities due to injury/illness.

Seeing these differences was why I started roller skating (again) at 49 and increased other activities to keep my ass moving and challenge my coordination and balance. I want to get everything I can out of this life.

I would kill that with some Nutella.

I had a cat years ago that would lose her shit over carrots. To the point when putting my groceries away after shopping, I’d catch her trying to chew and claw through the plastic grocery bag to get to them. I can only imagine they made her happy like catnip because she’d play and chew on them if I gave her one.

Serious question.

Following the assumption that it’s not food safe plastic, what is the actual risk that we’re talking about here? I get that there’s many variables (length of time/temp of contact, porousness and moisture content of food, etc) but let’s say that the variety of foods were stored in a cooler for 4 hours prior to consumption. To do this 3x a year, what are the risks? Obviously this set up left in the car during the summer for 8hrs before eating would be a REALLY bad idea, but wondering where it starts crossing the line from insignificant risk to “you should really think twice.”

I remember years ago Mythbusters tested the “5 second rule” and contamination really had much more to do with what was making contact vs how long.

Then I’m guessing rubs the residue on his gums. Repeatedly.

Can’t let it go to waste!

While I prefer the flavor of the burgers from BK, I always end up waiting for my order far longer than McDonald’s, then the combo of ingredients isn’t even warm enough to melt the cheese on the burger (no, I didn’t customize it into an abomination, just asked for no mustard.) So while I’d almost prefer it, I don’t go to BK except for once or twice a year. Even then, it seems like they’re constantly changing the fries that they’re serving, trying to hit a sweet spot?

Instead my go to is the Daily Double and small fry from McDonald’s.

Ok, anatomical horror story aside - what kind of creepy ass fuck knuckle “smirked deviously” at a virgin while deciding what to “do to her.” Who is this written for?

Having assembled IKEA furniture, I’m pretty sure he didn’t trap his sack during assembly lol.

Sitting on a stool with holes in it combined with a nice warm shower, scrotum relaxes, balls slip through a hole. The problem is that standing will try to yank both through at the same time, which just isn’t going to work. I don’t have balls of my own (someone who does please correct me if I’m wrong) but I’d imagine that after that startling moment, the scrotum would probably try to retract is contents for protection, which would make matters worse.

I work in hospice, so I’m in the homes of many, many elderly people. While it’s not just the elderly, some people have balance, strength, endurance issues, or injuries that make standing and bathing risky. Falls are bad, falls when naked, wet, and onto hard surfaces are worse. You can purchase specialized medical equipment meant for shower use, but I can see someone using an inexpensive plastic stool as an alternative.

Look up Dylan Hollis! He’s on YouTube and tests old recipes - be warned, he brings a LOT of personality lol. I really enjoy his videos and just picked up his cookbook, Baking Yesteryear.

LD50’s are fun!

Your parents are doing their best with the tools they have, but they’re preparing you for the world they grew up in - not the one you will live in. The things you think are for other people? They’re for you too. You can have them, it’s just going to be a lot of work to get there.
