That is absurd. Words should beget violence????? I am done with this topic, I am obviously out of my wheelhouse not having kids.

Am I doing it "wrong" trying to make my dashi more powerful? I doubled the kombu. Also the bonito. Though I think the extra bonito was just a waste. Is your kombu soft and easy to pierce with your fingernail when you take it out? It takes a while to extract it's goodness and you shouldn't let it sit in boiliing water. My dashi never boils. Yes it is really tender. Like a over cooked noodle but a mit more.... connective.

Great healthy food. There is a reason they are all fit and live a long time. I thought it was MUCH MUCH more complex to cook. I am so glad I tried to make miso.

You meed armadiller. And I agree. I hate me some big gubment.

Bullying is only an issue because the kids are pussies nowadays. They can't take anything, have no self esteem, feel like they have to look and act a certain way instead of being themselves. This goes back to the parents or lack there of. And then everyone is medicated because laziness is being excused as a disorder. Getting in a fight today often times has much worse consequences then "back in the day." I remember senior year one of the students streaked during a football game. He hadn't done anything before, still the school expelled him for 4 months, and he had to petition to the school district about allowing him to graduate because of all the time missed (even with making up all the work). How the fuck does that better his education? I couldn't imagine what shit he'd been in if he fought someone. Or if you fought someone away from school, someone talks about it at school, school finds out, your fucked. So in that regard I see the same as you about our current society being fucked up. This... and why the fuck should we allow violent dominance to prevail? Because in then end that is all it is? I agree, kids of today are "pussies". More power to them. Let shit get hashed out anyway other than fists in my opinion. If that is how it should be maybe we should have all the kids fight for grades. Push the kid with crutches down the stairs.... he was a pussy to let his bones get broken anyway. We don't need Klingon warriors. People can express themselves without medication and without hitting. As you said a shit load of that comes down to parenting. But saying it is going backwords is pretty wild IMHO.

In regards to technology, yes, but they don't know shit about taking care of themselves, anything about history, half can't do any math without a calculator. I personally think we are going backwards. We're just getting closer to killing ourselves and have mother nature purge herself of our destructive nature. I get the message but I call partial bullshit. They take better care of their health in many ways. Less incident of nearly every disease. Most of what is left is suicide or a culture epidemic. They are more informed about drug a abuse and sex. They are more socially intellectual in almost every way. For the most part kids come out brilliant genius'. We just fuck up that roll and ruin it for them. The people on this site are FAAAAAAR ahead of the average. Even the most ignorant person has a leg up on joe q public. And joe q public of today is leaps and bounds above what our grandparents dealt with. It is just the way it works. If we got slowly worse we would have died out a long time ago. Knowing how to solve a matrix without a calculator is pointless in daily practice. You need to know how so you can learn why we have a machime to do it. If someone blasted us into the stone age we wouldnt need long division anyway. We would have more immediate problems. When you learned how to do all that shit math in school it was needed. Because they didnt have disposable machines that could do it for you, and nothing when we were kids required anynof that kind of math. Now in industry from coding to engineering we need math like that to be precise on a daily basis. And since the long way takes too long it is more important to know how to run a machine. Thinking otherwise is like thinking that learning to put fuel in a car is silly when you can just raise horses. Have you spent any time around children, especially teens lately? They are socially inept. They can't communicate with each other at all without a machine. Two teens sitting 2 feet apart on a couch and how do they talk? They text each other. They ARE more informed about sex and drug abuse and they still choose to ignore it. That is stupidity, steps backwards. As for the machines, what will they use when the machines don't work? Ever go to a store or restaurant and you bill comes out to, oh let's say, $20.36. You hand the person $21.00, they plug it into the cash register, then you find a penny in your pocket and hand it to them. They don't know how much change to give you. They can't do anything for themselves. I could go on with this forever. Just like plumbing, what about when all the toilets fail?! Modern plumbing is the number one life saving factor in our world, but whay do we do when there are no toilets left. We should all take bucket pooping classes and train in them until we have it just right. You know that was an actual argument they had when the aquaducts and the later modern plumbing came around? When we have 90000000 ways to dispose of technology that does it all for us it is silly to fixate on the steps that lead us there. Appreciate, learn why, and move on. As for my dealing with kids, I worked in the school &park/rec co effort for low income kids. Volunteer with them. Used to also do groups annually. Was a nanny with 5 kids to watch also. MIL is a school worker for the principle at a local school. I get a lot of exposure. More kids play Instruments and explore art with tech than ever before. They communicate faster and articulate better than we could have ever imagined. Teen pregnancy is was down. Kids ODing is way down. School violence is way down. MN is a shining star for all of that in general but when I was in middle school I went to the school that "won" most violent school in the US.... I am not an expert, but I think that being pessimistic about it is silly. If things in general are getting worse we wouldnt have made it this far. And maintaining that people are idiots just because there is a tool to take over a time honored tradition is a bit silly. You have to see my point on that at least a little.

Not to take away from what your saying, but you can learn a lot on the internet. Though you can also be misinformed. Oh come on, Blues Audio speakers and Linear Power amplifiers were designed by the God's and ignore Physics. The funny thing is, they sound good too!

If they were made in a different galaxy, then our physics wouldn't necessarily apply, but once they came in our galaxy... I can't believe it's not butter!!!! technically, the physics would be the same in other galaxies. I remember a lecture by Neil DeGrasse where he mentioned that it's a possibility that our laws of physics wouldn't hold true in other galaxies with different dimensions, and such. But it's not something I really know anything about, so... I Dunno. Gots to be careful on how you use the word dimension. If you mean like the show sliders then yes. If you mean like line, plane, cube, tesseract, etc etc then those other possibile "dimensions" literally exist concurrently with our existance. Our frame of reference doesn't permit the sight of that though. Kind of like how shit changes at the speed of light and how time may be an actual physical dimension and not some pseudo dimension. If durration is movement through the dimension we call time....holy WTF. My undepants get snug thinking about that shit.

Albert is my muh fukkkin home boy though. I was watching some talk a while back and this guy summed up AE. People today are still winning nobel prizes from the scraps he left on his table. Guy was a game changer. In highschool I wanted to get an e=mc^2 tattoo. I remember reading his books and not having a grasp on any of the math. But getting just enough of it to be star struck and amazed. I fucking love that magical world that you go to when learning things like that.

I had too much dayquil. I need it to wear off so I can take Nyquil and pass out.

If that galaxy was part of one of the other theoretical possibilities that exist it could in fact have diferent natural laws. It all depends on your universal theory. Quantum is like so passe man.

If I can think of anything it isnthat kids today are just so fucking nice. Bullying is really the nations big school problem. Please. A billion times better than when gangs openly had fights in my school.

I will say the more in learn about Japanese cooking the easier it sounds. Shit is SIMPLE. Extremely delicate and complex mind fuck flavors from insanely simple prep. I think I may try to incorporate Japanese cooking into every day life. It is so simple to make fresh whole meals. I am great with a lot of the stew, BBQ , and other time dependent cooking methods. Adding something fast and healthy would be a great technique. Shabu shabu or sukiyaki would be SOooOooOooo simple to make.

Maybe. The taste is 90% right, texture is probably wrong because they cooked WAY faster than I expected. Maybe I will make some udon and some soba. :-) Illness makes me carbo crazy.

Maybe I will make soba noodles. I think the buckwheat noodles I got are not classic soba style. Tasty, but they seem too fine and short.

I hate how hungry i am when I am sick. It is even worse when most of me doesnt want food.

Double entendre.

Lots of merit. It will make apple lots ot money on adapters. Lawl

You gotta plow a few 4s to appreciate an 8. I tell the wife all the time.

I need caliente!

Who hasn't fucked some pussy?

They exist in the 5th dimension and thus can fold the 4th and 3th to it's will.

Back in my day new bottles of booze were already half drunk, and we took our shoes off when we left the house because we couldnt afford to wear them out. Every generation gets better in general. Smarter, stronger, and faster. And usually has a better life. If it wasnt that way we would be moving backwards. We can still learn things from the past but young children today know more than we ever did. It is too bad that most kids are in a rush to do things their way.... but every generatio of teens is the same in that regard.

Sorbet, ginger ale, 99proof schnaps and peach schnaps. Sore throat medicine FTW
