I listened to it. It could be a lot worse -- Trump doesn't sing.
The repeated phrase "One Day You'll Find Yourself" reminds me of the Talking Heads song "Once in a Lifetime".
Was that one of the things that came up in the "useless web sites"?
I refuse to believe that OP.3 isn't satire.
3: I have to believe that the use must be consciously or subconsciously inspired by the song.
Plagiarism: because property rights are an illusion if it's not our property.
Another useless song full of internetisms, that seems on-topic.
The etiquette guy may be right that for most young men vegetarianism is a phase, but he might have clarified that the two possible endgames for that phase are resuming meat eating or becoming a woman.
Vegetarianism is obviously a huge pain, but forging an identity around cooking and eating meat seems annoying.
10: I've been vegetarian for about 35 years, and I continue in my lackluster way to identify as male, but what turns out to have been just a phase was youth.
12 wow peep, that's great. It's been about 25 years for me.
I think I wouldn't go nuts as a vegetarian, but veganism is impossible. Cheese and butter are really great.
14: Maybe I'll find out.
13: Thanks, Barry! And congratulations to you, although 25 years could be a mere phase, and you're still young too.
I like milk in my coffee and tea too.
You can continue putting tea in your coffee if you take up veganism..
The plant power is strong with you all! It's been a mere 22 years for me, longer for lurid, but neither of us is going to raise much fuss about fish broth when we go to Japan next week, and I'm sure the kid will eat enough karaage to undo all our virtue.
I haven't read eaten meat since last night. Unless you count fish.
21: Yes, I typically don't inquire too deeply into ingredients at restaurant.
As an advice writer, you might some day find yourself saying that hiking sandals are to be shunned but also - inexplicably - that a man's thigh is the same circumference as his neck. You should know that proper use of the first will easily prevent the unacceptability of the second.
For extra points: wear the sandals with socks.
The first useless link: something about a binary piano. Useless indeed because I'm viewing all this in my phone in public.
The second useless link: a page with a list of apparently useless books, like How To Outsmart a Squirrel, but the page itself was reasonably amusing as a joke and maybe even gift ideas.
The third useless link: something about checkbox Olympics, which I think didn't work because again I'm on my phone.
The advice thing: mildly interesting but also not optimized for a phone.
For great and iffy advice I rely on JP Donleavy's The Unexpurgated Code.
Some topics:
Upon Being Cuckolded
Upon Being Stung on the End of Your Prick by a Bee on the Golf Course
Upon Encountering Happiness- "Be wary at such times since most of life's blows fall then."
Upon Abandoning the Aircraft
Much debate accompanies the premise of whether it is safer to bring your own personal parachute with you and jump out of a crippled aircraft or come down with it on the off chance of a miraculous landing.
[Two paragraphs on the possible difficulties of using the parachute.]
For all these reasons it may be, as the good people of the airline usually suggest, prudent that one descend with the motor bird.
