Those John Hughes movies have a great way of mixing cartoon nonsense and some seriousness. The 00s kids comedies always had this over the top goofiness that was too unrealistic, but those movies somehow made it work.
It’s the same as the Shopping Cart theory. There are a few analogous theories, but they’re all the same. If you don’t return your grocery cart, pick up your pet’s poop, or hold your trash till you find a disposal then you’re an asshole.
My crippled ass limps and canes my way to the nearest provided spot.
If I can do this with one leg that barely works, two bad knees, a bad back, and after a half hour+ of misery stumping around a grocery store, nobody not in a chair has an excuse. And it ain’t that hard to return a cart in a chair.
Returning trolleys was the norm in England during the 90s. I dunno what the fuck happened for everyone to suddenly start refusing to return them. Maybe the employment of trolley collectors made people lazy?
Winds me up though. I always return them and make sure to return any nearby ones.
Haha unfortunately not - I wish I was this funny. First time I saw it, it needed a lot more jpeg so glad to see it’s been renovated. Meme of the month at least imo.
Wild Turkeys do fly. Just usually not very far, and usually only to escape predators or to fly into trees at night. Or to fly onto my roof to get the the yard on the other side of my house lol
The number of times it’s handed me a copyright strike for recording tunes that are >400 yrs old is simply tiring. Used to be infuriating, but now I’m just tired lol
So the composition and the performance are two separate things. Sure the music was written and composed a long time ago and if you were to play your own version that would be fine. But the recording you have is not that old and has it’s own copyright attached because they have transformed the public domain composition into their own performance.
The wild part for me, though, is when I basically played the basic Greensleeves on the lute from memory in a livestream, then slipped into playing Francis Cutting’s version (the best, IMO, the elegance of the compound meter is just badass) after the first playthrough, again by memory, I was copyright struck after the fact twice, with a strike for each, one after the other.
TBF the proper way of doing it would be to improv it into your own direction, which I did afterwards and didn’t get struck for, but it’s just crazy to me how much the recording industry tries to clamp down on anyone performing anything even vaguely sounding like a preexisting recording. I contested the strikes, largely standing on principle that I was doing the performing myself and that the music itself was ancient and they were dropped.
Longest wait on a song was 15 years, with 3 years of searching on reddit. The artist uploaded the song one day, and it was found. It turned out that he became a dentist instead.
You have to pick the part of the plant just below the waterline, you can just twist and rip it off or use a knife for a clean cut.
Then you remove all the green and cut the white part into small slices (like you’d cut an onion). Then fry the slices in a pan with butter, when the pieces become translucent they’re done. Add a little dash of pepper, salt and few drops of lemon juice.
The taste is a bit “almondy”, it’s great with fried halloumi or beef.
The best time to pick the roots is before Midsummer, after that they’re not as tasty.
Yes, it is edible when young, but once the tail is brown like this it is no longer edible. Its core is composed of many tiny seeds covered in tufts of cotton-like filament that it uses to float off and germinate elsewhere.
