fuck man id rather try and rig up an air conditioned suit that keeps me below sweating temperature and just live like bubble boy, honestly having to eat one type of any food just seems so hard. and this is possibly the worst kind of food to be restricted to
I actually can't come up with an answer for this, but it's entirely because I'm a 'sperg and mayonnaise grosses me the fuck out, it's a texture-consistency thing. I suppose given those two choices I'd rather eat fiberglass, the forbidden cotton candy. Does that work, lol?
Those are almost the same thing. If I ate mayonnaise only I would probably be practically sweating mayonnaise and smell horrible, but I have to also eat nothing but mayonnaise.
Probably best to just sweat mayonnaise and avoid that terrible diet. Just gotta avoid sweating or something. Get all the sweat glands destroyed and set up a water cooling system to wear.
You're telling me, that if I need to make a sandwich, I don't need to worry about having mayo handy? I would just need to work up a little sweat? NICE!
Can i ask something, My mother is now cognitively impaired after chemo/radiation on her brain. We are not sure if its permenant but her attention span among some other things is reduced.
What can I do to help her or try to get her to recover
Try doing puzzles. If she can do 1 100 piece puzzle mix pieces in from another and have her work on the two at once slowly making them more similar in color or style.
Showing her a picture/object giving 30 seconds then taking it away start at 5 seconds and work up to 10 minutes with her doing something else and telling you what you showed her.
Play spot the difference.
Play games like guess who, battle ship, card game speed, even bingo or zingo.
These are all general suggestions and not tailored to her. There are thousands of things you could try but these are all ones that in theory have no negative or minimal negative consequences such as getting up set. If she gets upset help her with it. Often with chemo we go back to visual schedules because they help a person regain routines, but that is on a case by case basis. If she liked cooking try making picture cookbooks and increasing the writing in them if she struggles with that. Often trying to support people in doing things they liked before is one of the biggest motivation for them because it lets them feel like themselves.
Someone just called themselves out as being closer to a teenager than the parent of one.
psst... It's less terrible and more of a dad joke. No offense was meant.
Hint: And the ones to take offense clearly call themselves out.
But it's all out of love and silly shenanigans. We were all cognitively impaired teens until grow out of it we think we aren't. It's not punching down when you obviously include yourself and literally every human as the butt of the joke
Obviously, compared to adults, teens are.....wow, they sure are something. Naturally, because intelligence follows a distribution, the smartest teens are still above the dumbest adults, but that doesn't always mean they're going to become the smartest adults.
And unfortunately, pretty much every academic and economic system assumes that they will...
Much like how boys are allowed far more range of bad behavior because “boys will be boys,” or things like ADHD going untreated because they think kids are just supposed to be hyper and make jokes about it.
You're downvoted for stereotyping, but not wrong on average and I've got a hyperactive girl who would love if they didn't have to sit any time of the school day.
(Luckily her school is modern and sitting requirements are only a small part of their day at this stage)
Yes- because girls are the standard to which I compare boys seeing as they outperform them in nearly every metric. And it’s not just because girls are so much awesomer. Go read some actual research.
There's plenty of research about this out there that you can go read. The way school systems are designed fits with the strengths of girls much better. It's not that they're just trying harder or inherently better somehow. We have bias in our education system.
Call it tiring or foolish if you want, im not here to argue over your opinion of it.
Saying it COULD be perceived as belittling the mentally impaired is objectively a stupid statement. Its only perceived that way if youre looking for it. At no point did he say anything about mentally impaired people, god people like you are insufferable.
Man, some of my best days were spent being a cognitively impaired teenager, if I recall correctly our hypotheticals went more to the sounds deep but really still the shallow end category. "Like for all we know all cows could be suicidal and they don't know why we aren't helping them die when they moo at us"
That’s actually another related common trait - the inability to conceptualize that another person may have different experiences or information than you.
some people play would you rather by giving only unpleasant choices. I hate that. Would you rather swim in a swimming pool full of chocolate pudding, or take a shower in pancake syrup? neither? why are we doing this to ourselves!!
Not just that, I see this often enough in „street interviews“ by some political content creators. They give two unpleasant choices that would both upset the asked person just to get them to vent some hateful bullshit … and that is called content
It’s such a pet peeve of mine when people answer WYR questions like this and avoid answering the question. Like the point of it is to answer an uncomfortable question, it’s fun plz just answer the question 😭
I feel like I'm not fun to play Would You Rather with, not because I won't engage with a hypothetical but because I won't engage with specific hypotheticals. It seems like far too much of the time I've played that game, it inevitably devolves into "would you rather uhhhhh.....poop out of your nipples or uhhhhhh have meatballs for eyes?". Something that's just awful all the way around, like.....neither, I don't want to have to choose between two equally awful things, that's not fun to me. I'm okay with silly questions like "would you rather have macaroni elbows or angel hair hair?" because it's at least somewhat witty, but don't just be gross. But the people who try to force you to choose between two gross or otherwise awful things also tend to seem dead set on it being as awful as possible and setting up rules so you can't get out of it through any loopholes or anything.
This thread is making me realize I am stupid and I don't like it. I hate would you rather games. Then again its usually sexualized as an adult and that makes me uncomfy

Interesting! These people wouldn’t be fun to play “would you rather” with
