Mine is plain/lightly salted Doritos/tortilla chips dipped/scraped in unsalted butter.
I’m now wondering whether this is a little too specific of a question and I just really needed somewhere to get this off my chest…
Sink pissing
You win.
D:
Distance attempt or just hover?
Plot twist: vagina
Ohh yeah
Sometimes you just gotta put convention to one side and recognize when one is in a situation where pissing in a sink is the logically sound thing to do
Playing stupid phone games. Really mind-numbing, no talent required games. Currently into “Whiteout Survival”. I am over 60 y.o.
It scratches an itch.
Man I feel this. I’ve been obsessed with Cooking Diary since May of last year.
Just this morning, I popped awake, threw on some YT drama videos for background noise, and just played CD for like an hour and a half before I was like “Time to be productive”. Good easy start to a Sunday.
That being said, I saw further down you try not to spend money on the mobile games. I went through a phase in 2019/2020 where I was fucking massively into a Chinese dating Sim game called “Mr Love Queens Choice.” I spent $850 over the course of 2 years. It was a great game and I had a ton of fun, but there was a point where I crossed into a bonus tier that you could only get to by spending a certain dollar amount. And then I was like “Oh. Oh no boo boo what is you doin’?!”.
Damnit. You know I’m gonna go check out those games now! Lol
Do you ever spend money on them?
No lying, I have in the past. I spent $5 here and there on a game I played for about two years. The total was certainly under $50. I have known people to spend a lot though.
Sad story, I stopped playing that game because I betrayed my long-time league by using a hacked game and getting banned from the game. They had invested a lot of trust in me and given me leadership over their original team. I wanted to be like them, but I didn’t have the skill, so I cheated. I lost that team for them forever. I loved those guys, I really did, what a great time and a great social outlet. I even met one of them for lunch. Real friends online.

I use light mode on Discord, and just about everything really. I don’t like the feeling of being in a gamer cave. I always have a bunch of lamps on, and light themes too.
A valid positon but also…
How dare you?
Personally I use light mode on everything work related and dark mode for everything personal. Helps my brain separate the two
It’s the dark moders who should be ashamed
Are you every one of my coworkers who unknowingly send me black text on a clear background because they always use light mode?
Disgusting.
Making random screeching noises. I love it so much. But obviously I can’t do it around everyone all the time.
My SO and I make weird noises at each other constantly. I also make weird noises around my siblings.
Same here. Wife and I make funny noises and say weird things all the time. Sometimes we forget not to do it in front of others.
Screeching then biting my bfs neck in a surprise attack
Really scratches an itch in my lizard brain
A lot of people are saying porn, drugs and alcohol which sure i indulge in but not really in excess. I would if i let myself own any but i dont. My biggest indulgence is media, i consume slop in excess, i let myself fall into meaningless entertainment. Usually drama, youtube drama, it makes me feel so gross because i know how much of a waste of time it is. I could be studying or spending quality time with the people i love but instead i just listen to drivel.
I know it seems relatively harmless but i hate that about myself. I dont even enjoy it much, i just do it becuase id rather do that than nothing
Are you introverted? If you are, it sounds like you just need some time to recharge on your own.
But then if you don’t enjoy the dramas then maybe you could try actively seeking out a solo activity that you do enjoy? Because it sounds like it might just be a procrastination activity which isn’t usually as rewarding as we want and you’ll feel better actively taking time out to do something you truly want to do.
It is a procrastination ativity unfortunately, my school work is hard and i need breaks but dont have anything i really enjoy at the moment. I dont know what id want to do and have time to do rn
My time is split between work and spending time with my girlfriend which while i enjoy isnt personal time yk?
That’s fair enough and completely relatable. In which case I’d say go ahead and embrace watching them man. They may not be the most top tier of all TV ever, but they’re entertaining and cathartic enough to give you what you need.
I had similar problems and finally realized it was a symptom called executive dysfunction. I’d do easy dopamine drips like video games or watching YouTube videos instead of projects I want to do or tasks I need to do
Yeah im severely adhd and also have autism, dopamine seeking is like all i do. Trying to do better though
As someone who watches +5 hours of YouTube a day I’d say the main issue with this stuff is the ease of access. I can easily lost track of time and spend hours organizing screws in my tool shed but that mean I need to actually decide to go there first. That takes effort. Sitting in front of my PC and opening youtube (or xvideos) doesn’t take effort.
If I had people to spend quality time with, I’d do that, but I don’t so I’m online like 12 hours a day
Sometimes I’ll swing by Starbucks before my hour long commute to work I feel guilty each time because all but one coffee shop in town closed down but we have like 7 Starbucks now, one literally across the street from the other
This is a great reply because fuck Starbucks. Love it!
I pick my nose.
I bet you do too, don’t judge.
Or do: It doesn’t really matter what you think of me because I’m not a telepath.
There are two types of people in the world: People who pick their nose, and liars.
Seriously though, slowly pulling out one of those boogers that tickles your brain is a unique joy.
I once had a bloody nose while walking, I was about a half hour away from home. Since I don’t carry tissues, I did what made the most sense and just held my thumb over my nostril. Once I got home I grabbed a tissue and took my thumb away while leaning over the bathroom sink. Nothing came out, but my nose was plugged. I twisted the tissue and inserted it, removing it pulled out a 3 inch long bloodclot cast of the inside of my sinus that fell onto the palm of my weak hand. It was like a slug made of blood. The feeling of it slithering from my face was what I imagine to be the closest approximation of what the loving embrace of a benevolent god feels like while cumming. It was a transcendental natural high that no experience has come close to.
This post is a thing of beauty
Oh my goodness. And when it comes out the nose is completely clear and blood free. Sometimes I miss having nosebleeds.
I’ll do you one better. I pick my nose then sometimes (not always) have a lil snack :)
You disgusting monster (me too)
I wonder if it has something to do with my parents being heavy smokers as a kid, now I think about it. Nicotine is detectable in mucus, so if you do the kid thing of trying it enough maybe you can end up vaguely addicted?
Used to have a problem where I’d scratch my head and sniff it when stressed which stopped when my parents quit, too, now I think about it…
Sure enough my parents were also big smokers when I was younger, so you might be on to something here
I used to be quilty of that aswell but I still judge you.
I’m more curious to hear your accent.
It varies depending on what I’ve eaten.
I haven’t actually done this in over
twentythirty (fuck I’m old) years, but while thinking about it, I recalled my childhood…I used to dip extra buttery popcorn in chocolate milk. I fucking loved it. Honestly the thought of it makes me slightly nauseous now…
This reminds me of how I used to eat a spoonful of chunky peanut butter and then add a glug of maple syrup
That sounds really good. I think I’ll try that.
I sometimes do similar but unsalted mixed nuts instead of peanut butter.
Raw spaghetti dipped in smooth peanut butter.
Childhood is strange.
You’re not the only one. One of my favorite college stoner snacks was uncooked shell pasta filled with peanut butter. Sucking the peanut butter out softens the pasta and then you get a nice starchy finish.
I never got the appeal but they do sell chocolate covered popcorn so you may be on to something.
I bathe 2-3 times a day. A quick one in the morning to get me out of the house, or I just skip it if I don’t have time. Cycle to work, real shower there. Then a nice long bath in the evening where I just soak and watch anime. Or browse Lemmy.
There’s nothing socially unacceptable about this. This is environmentally unacceptable

I know. But… I don’t know how to not do it and either not make my bed smell or smell at the office.
Taking 2-3 showers a day when you’re working up a sweat isn’t killing the environment, don’t feel bad about it. If you’re worried about your personal water consumption then reducing the amount of meat/dairy you eat and not participating in fast fashion will do more than never showering again ever would.
Ah then I still regularly wear the clothes I bought 10 years ago, patched armpit holes and all!
if you’ve just bathed before going to bed, why do you need two baths before work in order to not smell? this sounds like there’s some kind of underlying medical condition lol
Well the morning shower I sometimes skip, but if it’s an especially cold day and the house is freezing, then I might sneak one in just to get enough motivation to leave the house
Do you live in a very humid place?
Not particularly
That sounds nice, but if I did that I would be a dry flaky pile of dust.
how come?
My skin gets quite dry after a shower, so multiple in a day would suck all the moisture out of me.
What’s more, after the dryness, I’d then get super oily to compensate. Won’t help with the dryness, but at least my DNA is trying, right?
I dunno, I don’t really do guilt beyond truly bad acts done by choice.
That being said, I am a chocolate milk fiend.
I have to strictly limit myself or I’d drink nothing else, and not eat anything useful nutritionally.
Chocolate in general is my one true vice. I don’t drink, I don’t use recreational drugs, I’m monogamous (and happily so), I quit tobacco, and even caffeine beyond trace amounts in decaf. But you try an take chocolate out of my life, and I will fuck you up.
I’ll even accept Hershey’s if there’s nothing else available.
But chocolate milk? Fuck me running. Cold, sweet, chocolatey goodness. I will walk right the fuck over infants and kittens if there’s a cup on the other side. Puppies? I dunno, I think I’d try to step between them, but I’m not making promises.
Home made is incredible. But my particular weaknesses are the pet trumoo, and the promised land midnight. They use thickeners that up the silky texture. The promised land stuff is meant to be more like melted ice cream, and it succeeds.
Which, don’t even ask me how quick I can kill a pint of hagendaz chocolate. Don’t blink is all I’ll say there.
I have no guilt involved there, but holy fuck is it an indulgence.
have you tried chocolate milk flavored protein shake? or does that not quite hit the same, for you?
I, the King Of The Internet, hereby grant you permission to have nice things every once in a while.
don’t knock the choccy milk protein shake powder, that stuff can be pretty good sometimes. it’s mostly just that you gotta shell out a buttload for it most of the time, for the stuff that actually tastes good.
I had to take powdered whey protein for medical reasons and it isn’t that bad, but it isn’t a milkshake from McDonald’s either.
I don’t know how regional this is, but Prairie Farms has a line of “premium” milks sold in small 1 serving bottles (and occasionally pints too) that I’ve only found at gas stations. The chocolate milk of that variety is really good but the strawberry milk is the nectar of the gods
I love black licorice. Developed a taste for it as a kid because it was the only candy available at my grandparents house. Now if I’m hanging out with buddies and I don’t want them mooching off my snacks, I’ll bring black licorice. I’ve only met one other person that wanted some and I was happy to share haha
I bought black licorice at the store and the cashier called it disgusting. I don’t care, I’ll keep eating that garbage.

Eh. Cigarettes are way worse, as far as I’m aware. So slowly slowly cutty habit.

You will take my overly sugary caffeine water treats from my cold dead hands
If you’re drinking monster energy drinks we shouldn’t have to wait all that long
Maybe try the sugar free ones? If you’re gonna be drinking a triple shot if caffeine, at least it doesn’t need to send you to the brink of diabetic shock. That’s where I’d probably start if I was hooked on them. Baby steps, y’know?

It’s the classic “pick your poison” but beetus will kill you long before cancer will
Cigars. It’s a common topic of judgement, as if I don’t know it’s an expensive hobby with increased risk of cancer. I just love them, and the rituals involved.
I’m an academic who no longer smokes (thanks grad school…) You meet a huge variety of folks in smoker’s pits. The folks a university relies on a hell of a lot more than at least half of faculty. I’m thankful for the daily, sometimes hourly, rituals that taught me that.
I quit smoking years ago but smoked for a long time. If I ever go back to smoking I think it would be a pipe. I did it once or twice and it was extremely relaxing.
I recently picked up a pipe. It has all the rituals and escapism of a cigar, without the hour-long commitment.
That being said, sometimes being”occupied” for an hour is part of the appeal. Each has their place ime.
What the heck is a plain dorito
A tortilla chip.
Doritos are to tortilla chips as Potato Chips are to Flavored Potato Chips. They both rely on a dusting of flavor on a type of chip.
The flavoured kind, sure. But I’m talking about these - do these not qualify as a proper tortilla chip? They are just Corn, Rapeseed Oil, Salt and Anti-oxidants.
The salt ones aren’t the plain ones, the ones in the blue bag are
Huh? Not for us. The blue bag in the UK are their ‘Cool’ flavour, which IIRC is lime-y ish kinda.
Apparently PepsiCo just sells unseasoned tortilla chips under the Doritos brand in the UK.
The UK? That checks out.
Drinking shots of gin.
The place I frequent has the same price for whisky, whiskey (with an e), and vodka.
The bartender says I’m the only person who opts for shots of gin as first preference.
Huh. Interesting. I don’t think I’ve ever tried gin as a shot.
