It’s also the best Linux distro! 🌱
Just replaced Mint with Manjaro KDE on my work laptop and it runs so much better. So I’m not quite on board with your statement.
I installed Mint on an old laptop with low specs and it ran very well in that context. I switched to Manjaro for my main computer because KDE and i have to agree. Manjaroo is also very easy to use out of the box.
Don’t know about best, but it’s very convenient, accessible, and easy to install.
If all someone is doing is browsing the internet or watching videos it’s the best linux distro from an ease of use perspective.
I was sure this was going to turn into mint slander by the end
i consider it slander to say it is “at home” in a fucking cigarette.
Blended into your favorite smokable herbs.
smokable, like how plastic is edible
Plus cats love their cousin
Yes, that’s why my distro of choice is Linux Mint lmao
I use Arch btw.
I like my kernel as I like my wine. Vintage.
I like 'm like my asshole, bleeding edge
This post brought to you by someone who never planted that cursed, evil herb in their garden
It’s not an herb it’s a lawn
It’s a lifestyle.
Though there are worse lawns to have.
We got “chocolate mint”. Yes, it actually does taste a bit like chocolate mint. Yes, it will take over your garden and be miserable to remove.
Wait, why? Please elaborate, I’m planning to get some for my garden. (In fact, I already bought the seeds package)
It grows like a weed so its quite hard to remove
quite hard to remove
It’s the plant equivalent of cockroaches
If you’re going to plant it, plant it in a pot first, then bury the pot up to the lip. It will stay mostly contained and you won’t see the pot unless you’re right on top of it. Mint reproduces through runners as well as by seeds and the runners are so much harder to control. If you bury the entire pot, it makes it easier for the runners to escape, which is why you want that little bit of lip above ground.
That’s why I just plant it in a pot
Edit: by “pot” I mean the rectangle type
And it’s disgusting.
Hard agree
You’re weak, please remove your genetic traits from the gene pool.
Mint is amazing, so is pineapple. That flavor can fit pretty much anywhere.
There’s a variant of mint known as pineapple mint. See if you can get your hands on a bit.
Pineapple has one up on mint in the pizza dept.
Given how people reacted to pineapple pizza, toothpaste pizza is going to get so much hate from people who won’t even try it.
In theory, mint is great. But poor practice has me avoid it unless I prepare something with it myself.
Mint is delicious and I’ll fucking fight you over that.
No need to fight, you can just have all the mint that comes my way.
And it’s stupid easy to grow. Once you have mint growing in your garden/yard, you will never not have mint growing in your garden/yard/neighbors yard.
It took over a entire section of our garden as a kid. I chewed that shit all day every day every summer.
That sounds like a pretty good memory.
Don’t have tons. Thanks for making a point of that. Going in the gratitude journal.
We once planted 6 different herbs in a rectangle planter including chocolate mint and spearmint, next year the whole planter and part of the one beside only contained chocolate mint.
Chocolate mint is especially evil in my book because it took over an entire area of our yard and killed off my grandfather’s raspberries that had been growing for decades and transplanted to two new homes ending their long lineage.
That’s unless you also have dill.
I can somehow kill dill. About the time it gets big enough to harvest some, it just bolts and dies. Even with a sun shade. I have to replant it every year.
Maybe your soil is not compatible, idk.
Immovable object meets unstoppable force.
Made a herb planter pot thing for my mom for mother’s day a few years ago, dill still going strong even with the cat munching on it
Nobody going to mention bamboo? Ok, I’ll mention bamboo.
Once you have mint growing in your garden/yard, you will never not have mint
Broadleaf herbicide keeps my neighbor’s mint infestation on his side without much issue. No worse than the violet, really. His kudzu is the only thing that causes a problem.
Ivy and brush formula round up appears to have done the trick on the patch in my yard some asshole previous owner spread. I don’t want a mono-culture yard but I hate both the smell and taste of mint. If there’s one herb I could do away with forever that would be it
Once you have mint growing in your garden/yard
you will never not have mint growing in your garden/yard/neighbors yard.
I love how the mint just spreads from your yard to your neighbor’s yard.
It’s a gift that keeps on giving. Forcefully. My neighbors hate me.
Jokes on you and them. I planted Catnip (also an invasive mint variety) to kill the weeds and rodents.
I managed to kill mint that was in a big planting pot. We had a very hot and dry spell and it just didn’t come back the next year. I was flabbergasted.
Also in my new house, animals ate the mint all the way to the ground. Never had that happen before!
I’m enjoying mint gum right now, so confirmed 👌
I was fully expecting this to mention Linux
I was fully expecting this to be only about Linux
Or that app for tracking household expenses.
That one closed and got rolled into credit karma. Guess that’s one L for mint.
Not really an L. It’s to be expected. Mint is always getting consumed!
Could also be a phone plan company. Just more evidence in favor of the versatility of mint.
What is it with humans and eating, smoking, or drinking any kind of leaf, seed, or other vegetable that has evolved a deadly toxin to avoid being eaten…?
“You know what, this tastes a bit bland, let’s add some insecticide to it to make it spicier!”
We get bored and don’t like bland things. These plants developed extreme flavors to deter most animals, but humans like to have unique and different things so it makes sense
I think spicy food is eaten in Spain, in India and in Thailand, because the spice acts as a disinfectant, which removes all kinds of germs (and therefore diseases) from your body, which is especially important in hot and humid climates, because bacteria spread like crazy there?
That’s a good point.
Also, spices can hide the fact that the food’s gone slightly off due to improper preservation (at least until it comes out one end or the other in a ballistic fashion, but then it’s possibly too late to pass the blame), so there might have been a bit of that, too.
Still, it’s funny how we love eating stuff that’d kill or seriously inconvenience most everything else.
We are weird creatures indeed.
Mmm… Tomacco
