Modern flip phones (e.g. Samsung Fold) are stupid and tacky and will never be as good as previous gen flip phones. Just won't. Sorry not sorry.

Calling Buddhism or Confucianism not a religion is a political claim which the speakers usually have zero knowledge of and I’m sick of it. The history of what is religion in China from the republic onwards with the very Protestant understanding of what is a world religion is very important to understand this question. But most people either claim this for their hippy means or to be derogatory

Blessing someone for a sneeze is the most useless human interaction I know of and we should do away with it.

Percentile dice (two ten-sided ones) are read with one die representing the 10s digit, the other the ones digit.
00 and 0 = 100
10 and 0 = 10
The shit people come up with as alternatives to reading the results are wrong

Being neuroatypical isn't a fashion accessory. Growing up in the 80s and 90s and not being "normal" was marginalising and hard for everyone around. You're not special or trendy because you self-diagnosed autism using an online questionnaire in 2023, you're just an unbearable twat and you want to not have to take accountability for your own shitty attitude.

The "phones are bad and suck your life away" crowd has gotten way too big. Yes, it's easy to waste time on them, but that's just something you gotta learn, like not watching TV series all night. You're a grown up, deal with it. Also maybe you feel bad for spending all that time on your phone just because feeling bad for that feels cool? It's actually your life you can spend it however you want. You don't need to be productive or successful to be a worthy human. Be a lazy shit that plays stupid phone games while on a train to work.
People will all change. In the past, I strongly opposed my wife's purchase of luxury goods, such as LV handbags. And we even quarreled because of such matters. Looking back now, it really wasn't necessary at all. So, people's concepts will indeed change.

If the ingredient of whatever snacks/dessert you're making is mostly chocolate, only use couverture or don't even try. There's place for compound but not here.
It doesn't matter which side you put the toilet paper in. I'm poly-dextrous and it is the way
