    The quesadilla maker’s pretty useful. Skillets only cook food on one side at a time, you know.

      Mine has been sitting in the back of my cupboard for at least a decade. This post just remindied me to donate the thing to Goodwill. There once was a time when I would eat a quesadilla on a regular basis. At this point in life I can’t justify having a whole appliance for making only one type of dish.

    I would probably hate wet sandwiches too. Glad my Arby’s near me doesn’t have wet sandwiches. It sucjs that even with all the work franchises do to try and make sure each location is as similar as possible, some people just get unlucky that the one they live close to sucks.

    Arby’s can be pretty good if you get stuff other than their regular roast beef. I like their reubens, gyros, and jamocha shakes.

    That said, they’re definitely not as good as they used to be. I miss their sliced roast chicken sandwiches, both the normal one that came with tomato and shredded lettuce and mayo, but more particularly the “triple cheese and bacon” roast chicken sandwich that they had like 20 years ago with sliced swiss, cheddar sauce, and parmesan spread.

      Agreed. Stop flushing wipes, none of them are “flushable”. If it doesn’t dissolve from light manipulation when wet, it’s not flushable.

      Bidet. Just get one. They’re like $30 and take 10min to install. Clean buttholes forever.

            Guess I was wrong about price… it’s $850 but it’s the Toto S550e. Bought it two years ago and haven’t regretted it at all. I’m actually going to have an electrician come out to install plugs in the other bathrooms to put bidets in all of them.

            The one I have now also sprays the front area for the ladies to I can’t comment on that but might be why it’s so expensive.

            The seat heats, the water is warm that sprays, auto open… pretty much all you need. I will say that as a dude on the taller side (6’ 2”), I really have to scoot my ass forward quite a bit so I’d probably find something else for my next bidet.

              Ah that’s a lot more features then even the nice hotel in Korea had. The instant heat and all the automatic stuff is probably why it’s so expensive.

              The second nozzle for vulvas is standard on even cheap models.

        Yeah same, I got ones that smell like Shea butter, they’re pretty nice. I mean if the store had other ones branded differently with the same wipes I would just buy those lol. I feel like the only ones triggered by the imagery are ironically the guys who are insecure in their masculinity and feel threatened by a literal moist toilette.

        I’m a caregiver for a man who needs coaching through the entire bathroom hygiene process and I can say that in my professional opinion, Dude Wipes are terrible. They pull apart just getting them out of the package (see below), let alone when someone with dexterity issues tries to clean their butthole with them. He ended up with a poop covered hand after pulling the bits of pulled apart dude wipe out from his butt.

        They are the largest “flushable” wipes, but are smaller than a normal baby wipe. Flushable wipes shouldn’t be flushed anyway, they’re terrible for every type of sewage system.

    A few years ago my friend’s father passed away. My friend’s mother continued to live in the house for another year or so. She never worked and had to eventually sell the house and downsize.

    My friend had referred to her mother as a hoarder before. I’ve seen the reality TV shows about hoarders. But you don’t really understand just how bad the problem is until you spend several days helping your friend clean out their childhood home for sale, filling up several dumpster bags worth of… Stuff. Apparently the mother has always had some mental health problems and a shopping addiction, but spending over a year alone in that house drove her off the deep end.

    We could have opened an entire new Harbor Freight store. There were clothes in sizes I didn’t know existed. My wife casually found a pistol just shoved in a random box. It was madness.

      My MIL once brought a trash bag full of clothes for my wife, from friend who didn’t want them. Most of them were brand new with tags still on them. We thought it was strange, but they mostly fit and we didn’t think too much about it. Next visit she brings two more big garbage bags of new clothes, and one of the bags had dirt (like actual earth/dirt) on the outside. It turned out that the friend was a shopaholic and had been stashing the bags of clothes under the house so her husband didn’t see, but she was running out of room, and was trying to make space.

      We stopped taking the clothes. It felt like taking advantage of someone’s mental illness. Never met the lady, but seemed sad.

      Fuck dude wipes though, that’s a ridiculous concept. Just get a fucking bidet and stop hating your anus (not you, person I’m replying to, but everyone reading this comment. Including you, if you don’t already have one!)

          Totally fair, I used baby wipes and just threw them away before my bidet. Bought a cheap cold water only bidet and it changed my life! It’s especially good for periods and cleaning for butt stuff. And horrid shits.

            No, but neither are my kids’ diapers. The way I see it is there are far worse things I could do to the environment and far more impactful changes I can make on my life for the environment than consuming 3-4 packs of baby wipes a year. I’m sure I’ll convert to a bidet sometime but right now I’ve got bigger fish to fry

        I remember reading somewhere that men’s buttholes are tougher than women’s and therefore more resilient to anal sex. It was in a thread though where feminists were complaining about anal sex being degrading and potentially injurious for women, so take it with a grain of salt.

          I mentioned Dude Wipes to my wife, and she said that they were popular with the young teens she works with. Apparently they’re not for your butthole specifically, but just general cleanliness wherever.
