| Topic | Is saki supposed to be warm or cold? |
| opopopza 07/14/20 6:16:49 PM #16 | Good sake is served cold. While traveling Japan, not one place I went served it hot. I was told that was something that was done to make bad stuff drinkable, and only old men still do it out of tradition. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
| Topic | When buying a new car, what do you do with your old one? |
| opopopza 07/11/20 5:10:47 PM #10 | I've always kept my cars for years before getting a new one, so I've just junked them. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
| Topic | Americans that are out of work...what are you doing for money? |
| opopopza 07/01/20 7:34:23 AM #6 | pinky0926 posted... As I understand, some of you received a check about 2 months ago that was just about enough to pay rent. What else is going on?You're understanding is wrong only partly correct. The media loves to pile on America for everything now, even with things that we aren't doing badly. The truth is unemployment benefits were greatly increased, to the point where some people are making more money now than pre-pandemic. The stimulus check was an attempt to help people in the very immediate with necessary items like groceries. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
| Topic | Well I have tinnitus. :( |
| opopopza 06/29/20 11:26:53 AM #10 | I've had it for about a decade. I sleep with a fan on, but other than that it's ok. During the day there is enough background noise that I can forget about it. It definitely gets worse with alcohol and caffeine, so if you drink a lot I would suggest cutting back. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
| Topic | Ramen is just soup |
| opopopza 06/28/20 6:08:40 PM #8 | NotYou posted... I've had some of that cheap single-serving stuff, and it's pretty boring. I did always want to try an actual ramen place (I hear that's actually a thing) because I hear people rave about it, but they don't have any of those out in the boonies.I mean yeah... That's the equivalent of comparing 7/11 microwave burritos and going to a nice Mexican restaurant. If course the cheap crap isn't going to be great. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
| Topic | Reading Moby Dick made me want to try eating whale. |
| opopopza 06/13/20 9:47:10 AM #10 | Kami_no_Kami posted... I talked to my Japanese coworker about it once when there was news about Japan going back to whaling for traditional reasons. He said its extremely bland and was eaten in his hometown mostly because it was cheap at the time.My wife is Japanese, she says pretty much the same thing. No one actually likes whale, but after WWII it became a major source of food out of necessity. And now you just have people who are nostalgic for it that push hard to keep it somewhat legal. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
| Topic | Black Man found Hanging from Tree outside of City Hall |
| opopopza 06/13/20 9:43:48 AM #45 | We've had multiple people hang themselves in the train station here, I wouldn't say there is no chance this is suicide. But I feel like a proper investigation would make it clear. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? |
