Poll of the Day > Do you have a New Year's Resolution?

(+) Yeah! (+)

SighI guess I should try to get a new girlfriend. I dont mind being alone and despise most social interactions so its been a while since my last relationship, but I do miss a few things about it

going to be a lot of work though, since Im kinda short and a little chubby, so I have to put much more effort into the relationship than most guys would have to

I made a New Year's Resolution many years ago to never make New Year's Resolutions.

Not something I bother with. Trying to make changes in my life to improve it is a daily thing for me.

This might sound weird out of context, but I'm gunna self-harm more...

In context I am rather pain-averse so as soon as I get even the tiniest twinge in my body somewhere I freeze up...

This year, Ima go get hurt... maybe skydive or take up roller blading or something

Imma start taking music lessons again

Last century I resolved not to make anymore New Year's Resolutions, and that is the only New Year's Resolution I've ever met.

To do my best at my new job.

No need. I'm already perfect.

I have a few ideas but nothing definite like last year (which was getting my driver's license).

No. Those are pointless For me, anyway If I want to change, Ill just do it And start when I want instead of at the beginning of a new year

I bet local gym memberships are way up

they usually are at this time of year

Yeah. One is to learn how to cook a new thing every month based on cookbooks I've been gifted over the years (sushi, ramen, lasagna, and a Bob's burger cookbook). Another is to watch all the Pixar films (I chose Pixar since I've heard good things about them and because there will be 27 films by the end of the year, which means I can watch one every two weeks and it works out perfectly from 1/1 to 12/31). I'm not much of a movie-watcher, especially at home, so this is actually somewhat of a "challenge" for me.

a Bob's burger cookbook

I got something similar to this It was a pack of cards that had all the different burgers in it I got them years ago Some of the burgers sound weird, but may taste ok Some sound like they might be good, but probably arent for me due to certain ingredients (which I can alter, anyway)... So, I might try to make some Gotta find the cards, though I got them for ever ago. And I think I had found the cards a couple years ago. But put them down somewhere else again

My usual approach to burgers is that, even if one of the ingredients wouldn't normally appeal to me on its own, I'll still give the burger a try as the chef/recipe intended instead of trying to remove or replace it. Very often, burgers are designed around the whole package, so removing any one component can throw the rest of pretty significantly, and even if I might not normally like the ingredient it can be more enjoyable with everything else going on. If I still don't like it, then I'll consider removing it, but I figure its good to give it an honest try first.

Of course, if you're talking about allergies and not just dislikes, this philosophy stops being even remotely applicable.

I think a few were allergies Though, others were just certain ingredients I just dont like Which is why I figured some werent for me since altering it would make it a different burger Though, I might find my own original recipes that I like The ones that seem weird, but I like all the ingredients, were ones Id still try. As unique pairings are still often good

The Bob's Burgers cookbook is very good

To clear through at least 50% of all my backlogs (Video games, books, movies, and TV shows).
