Me when my inventory is 95% filled with water.

Time to make some agua de pepino.

One time my dad gave me 37 cucumbers from his friend's farm, and I was just sitting there staring at a fridge completely full of cucumbers displacing everything else like what the hell do I do with 37 cucumbers???

Most recipes online are like, use 1 cucumber and 8 potatoes... I need a much higher cucumber to everything else ratio. I eventually found an ancient website online from the 90's outlining someone's grandma's recipe for peasant Polish soup from "the war". It was like a whole damn cucumber quest.

It was ok. Really made you feel like a peasant.

I'd probably pickle them all. But then again, I love pickles.

If you don't love pickles, probably not a good idea.

That's quite a story. Cucumber soup sounds not good. Agua fresca is the way to go. Maybe make a Japanese Sunomono salad. Obviously just make pickles.

[–] Zarobi@aussie.zone 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah I didn't know about this back then, and I didn't think of pickles for some reason. I was hyper fixated on a "meal" solution

[–] Zephyr@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

Idk about you but pickles can be a meal, maybe add some deli meat, cheese, and crackers, but honestly just pickles is good too.

something's not quite right...

This is a really good shop honestly

My brother and I have been calling it that ever since Oblivion came out.

[–] fleem@piefed.zeromedia.vip 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

what did you call it in Morrowind?

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 2 points 1 week ago

I think our Morrowind was in Russian...

Is that a cucumber in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

[–] squirrel@cake.kobel.fyi 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Sadly, I'm under-cucumbered since @moistbones@lemmy.world stopped posting to !ich_iel@feddit.org

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Ich bin Gurken-Rick!

[–] Kratzkopf@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago

They did? Oh no, I just thought the posts were very irregular.

Is this "don't buy too much cucumbers, you don't need then"-awareness month? Asking for a friend

[–] grue@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This is "you are an absolute fool for planting that second cucumber plant" month.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 week ago

Thanks, I finally feel seen. I mean, my friend does

[–] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 week ago

just make pickles by the barrel

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Honestly, one of my least favorite RPG mechanics. Especially when it's a game that surrounds you with an endless amount of useless shit to pick up.

Yes I know that's the point. I don't care, I hate it.

[–] lividweasel@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

…and me sitting over here unencumbered…

[–] gnufuu@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

One of my Baldur's Gate parties once came dangerously close to breaking up because of this exact pun lmao

[–] Damarus@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

Why would you put the items that can be picked up there, if you don't want me to pick them all up? Who understands games man...

How many are rotting in your fridge right now?

Or am I undercucumbered?
