30 Common Cooking Mistakes That Amateurs Make That Annoy These Chefs

Chop expensive ingredients like meat or mushrooms small. We often judge if we've had enough by numbers, not volume. So if you chop things small, people will think that they are getting more than they are getting if you chop the same amount but in larger chunks. If you serve someone one chicken breast the will be disappointed, but if you chop the same chicken breast into small pieces in a curry or stew, they will rarely eat a whole chicken's breast worth of meat but still be satisfied with the amount of meat they think they've had.

“This Doesn't Add Up": Woman Claps Back At Haters Who Don't Get How She Can Have A "Handsome" And "Physically Fit" Husband

Those comments make me feel sick. How dare people say that to any other human being? And I suspect they have a relationship that will stay the course as it's based on real things - love and character, rather than looks. I suspect lots of the couples that feature on the endless AITA articles here were attracted by looks and then married without really knowing each other.

It amazes me that people have the audacity to be so incredibly rude about someone else's looks.

“This Doesn't Add Up": Woman Claps Back At Haters Who Don't Get How She Can Have A "Handsome" And "Physically Fit" Husband

I guess that explains why dating apps, and casual sex took off. People got used to living for beauty, but after 10-20min of bed rocking there was nothing else... I was short chubby girl, he is 196cm tall and slim built, we spent together 5-6hours walking in the middle of the night, and then he moved to another country to be with me, we didn't get to sex till after 5months of living together and sharing a bed. Beauty won't last, but humour and ability to talk and listen, and support will outweigh any physical appearance.People who have criticized us since the beginning are the ones still jumping from person to person, like ticks never satisfied. You're beautiful, and couples that are connected on deeper level are better looking than two models on a photo. (wonder how many takes it took to get that photo). A whole generation has grown up comparing themselves to others and if you're below or above then you get hit by their insecurities. Wish you all the happiness and success!

Husband Plans To Leave 33-Week High-Risk Pregnant Wife And A Toddler Alone For A Trip To Another Continent, Wife Wonders If She's Wrong To Be Upset About It

This actually sounds like bad communication. It sounds like she hasn't actually laid it out for him like she has here and is expecting him to intuit that she's actually not ok. She sounds like a really nice but conflict averse person and has probably not wanted to say 'don't go'. Her husband has probably read this as her being really, really kind to him, so feels bad but thinks he has had her blessing to go ahead. She just needs to talk to him straight.

Here Are Some Of The Most Displeasing And Annoying TV And Film Characters Ever (30 Examples)

No. No. No. Blame it on the director or the writing if you want to, but his acting reminded me of those old car-dealership ads where they would hire a local sports celebrity who had absolutely zero acting training. It should be terrifying to watch a "hero" descend into the abyss of hatred, but instead, it's so poorly done that it's funny.

"Am I The [Jerk] For Wearing A White Dress To My Friend's Wedding?"

Honestly, I think that Bridezilla somehow learned that her groom was attracted to OP and set the whole thing up to end the friendship. The fact that the groom offered to sleep with OP, ostensibly as an apology, supports this. Bridezilla couldn't deal with her groom's attraction to her best friend and needed an excuse to get rid of OP. NTA, and good riddance.

This list is a mess. It mixes well-written, well-played villains (like Dolores Umbridge or Joffrey Baratheon), which are not supposed to be likable, with annoying protagonists that are badly written and/or badly played. Not the same thing at all.

"This Is Blowing People’s Minds": Amateur Historian Explains Why Some European Countries Probably Won't Feed You In Their Home

I wonder how much of that is a hangover from the war - I'm the child of parents who went through rationing, so even if I didn't go through that myself, I was brought up by parents who wouldn't waste things and I feel uncomfortable if food goes to waste.

"This Is Blowing People’s Minds": Amateur Historian Explains Why Some European Countries Probably Won't Feed You In Their Home

Yes, this - I plan meals and cook fairly precisely so there's not much over and not much leftovers in the fridge, so if my kids' teenage friends who eat like horses suddenly turn up I don't have anything for them, so I just tell them that and they pop to McDonalds.

30 People Share What Baby Name Immediately Makes Them Think The Parents Are Stupid

In Antebellum US, enslaved people were not allowed to name themselves or their children. Instead, they were given names by their enslavers, including the surname of their enslavers. Many African Americans today reject traditional "white" names, but don't have a reservoir of traditional names because during chattle slavery the people were literally bred like livestock and denied all access to their ethnic heritage, including their native languages. Non-traditional/creative names is one solution. Others (like Mohammed Ali -previously Cassius Clay) use traditional names from their chosen cultural heritage.

"This Is Blowing People’s Minds": Amateur Historian Explains Why Some European Countries Probably Won't Feed You In Their Home

As a kid we lived in an Arab country. There was a young girl I met, she was staying in our compound for a bit and we became friends. One day my mom invited her for lunch. She said yes and mom made peanut butter and jelly snadwiches and ice tea.. She really enjoyed that and we helped mom clean up. Next day or so, she invited me to lunch. There was a huge table with about 15 people a whole roasted goat, rice, veggies and servants (70"s) I ate everything offered and was stuffed. And then we left to play. She said she thought my lunch was better, as we talked to my mom, she laughed with us and we cleaned up, she liked helping which was never allowed by her family. I never saw her mom. Oh, turns out she was some kind of princess.

Neighbors Keep Harassing This Couple About Using Their Pool Until They Finally Lose Their Patience

And now I'm banned apparently for writing comments (this is my other account), only because of a stupid, little joke. Look, where I'm from, it's uncommon for people to have their own pool, only the very rich got them. BP comment sections can be really toxic when you're not entirely aligned with the "hive mind".

40 Hilariously Unfortunate Names Parents Actually Give Their Children, According To People In This Thread

I normally agree, but every now and then you come across one that is actually kind of cool, in a "You could be famous with a name like that" way. Three examples I have known, all of whom were born between 1900 and 1920 were, Joy Devine and the brother and sister Treble and Tenor Bell. Edit: Also, look at my name, remove the later addition of "Hudson" and then sing "Puff the Magic Dragon". Just the first couple of lines.
