An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Normal single piece for comparison. Doublers are quite common, never had a quad before.

This is so dull, I wish it was my story.

[–] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

The mega wheat.

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They actually still make mega-wheats, which are quite fun. It's old-school cereal. Throw some frozen berries on it, and it tastes about the same as contemporary stuff.

I hated eating any shredded wheat when growing up, those were just the start to a bad day. Mean I was a fat kid but those things felt like tiny sticks in your mouth even after soaking for awhile....being a kid with adhd that awhile may not have been long as my memory says it is.

The frosted side mini ones are marginally better at least but the texture is mostly what I didn't care for. Rather have it as a gruel than chewing on dried stuff.

puffed wheat is basically the only breakfast cereal i really find appealing, it's soft but crunchy and it's the right balance between sugary and healthy.

Like, no, i don't want to eat cereal that is literally brown (almost gray in many cases) and has 0 sweetness, and i also don't want to eat stuff that is effectively coloured sugar..

I got a super big fruity pebble the other day. It was awesome.

Yeah, but why stop at cereals? Those are rookie numbers!

Damn dawg, noice

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 4 points 2 weeks ago

You got the Quad.

Frosted MEGA Wheats

[–] Killer@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I once got a 2x3 wheat

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 3 points 2 weeks ago

Damn, it's been ages since I last ate those. Now I'm hungry.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I've gotten lumps of the coating in sugary cereals sometimes. It feels like I almost broke a tooth.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I was just trying to figure out why this made me think of Total Recall.

Apparently that's Quaid.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 2 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Is that white stuff sugar?

[–] ceviem@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

“Frosting” they call it, but yeah pretty much just sugar

[–] BehindetheClouds@reddthat.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

No, it's like sugar but duller.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

The Malt-O-Meal brand I used to get started being really bad about that to the point that it was almost rarer to get a single piece rather than a combo piece.
