🔥 Post Your Hot Takes... Even the Oddly Specific Ones

I had a biology teacher who called lettuce “crunchy water” and it stuck in my mind. It’s okay, especially butter lettuce used as a wrap:

But iceberg? Maybe as a vehicle for seasoning/dressing. I use shredded raw cabbage in place of it sometimes. Give it a shot!

Cabbage actually has a lot more nutrients than lettuce.

This is what stuck with me.

“Eat two large leaves of Romaine lettuce every day. They contain fiber, but other than that I have no scientific evidence that this technique has any special merits. I learned about it from a competitive bodybuilder in the 90’s. He never won any championships, but by God the man could poop.”

My gut feels the same way about lettuce.

I get the bagged coleslaw, throw a couple handfuls on the griddle with evo, balsamic & some red onion.

That & a couple hard boiled eggs is a nice breakfast.

People who own electric cars are either trying to be fashionable (and failing horribly), self righteous global warming vegan eating idiots or just waiting to be assimilated into the dystopian future.

I’m going to push back on this.

Electric cars produce less noise and emissions in the immediate vicinity of use, regardless of overall environmental impact. I’ll never drive, but as a passenger and pedestrian I much prefer quieter ride, quieter streets and breathing in less exhaust. Most ppl I know who own electric do it bc of the lack of noise and better tech integration.

In China, they can also be a much cheaper option since foreign cars (most internal combustion) get a very hefty tariff levied.

yes I think we will just have to agree to disagree. …

Driving a car that makes no noise is like having sex with a partner that makes no noise.

All of the videos about how GenX are badass and not to be messed with get on my nerves.

They’re trying way too hard.

The boomers did it right. They just silently went about sodomizing the nations economy and snorting any inheritance to be left behind, then wrote books about it after the fact as part of their spiritual journey. :rofl:

80% of all music within a genre/style is crap.

Every training influencer on the Internet make long clips for no obvious reason, which MAY contain a minute or two of USEFUL information (adding - at least 80% of the influencers as well as videos are all crap).

And for a beloved return - Bono should be hit in the face with a spade, for several reasons.

Dog breeders are contributing to the mass genocide of healthy dogs in shelters.

Lazy people who never exercise should be banned from buying big, athletic dogs. Everyone knows their pets end up depressed, under-stimulated, lonely, and often chained up outside in terrible conditions.

People who take their elderly pets to the shelter – just because they can’t deal with an aging dog – should be publicly shamed.
