These hamburgers were cooked…well… let’s be honest they were cooked to screw over America

I’m Aussie. For me friendliest countries probably Taiwan, Ukraine and Canada

I would strongly advise against drinking your vehicle regardless of how old it is.

The best part would be that if they went to another wizard to have them break the curse they’d tell them that there was no curse. More paranoia fuel.

I’m not going to entertain crock from an overly ambitious form of ape

Cold showers are for the weak, scalding showers are for true warriors.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed the anti cheese edits to be honest.

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one

No no… negative three

Hydrohusband, 'cause they hydro everybody out here.

I don’t think it’s necessary to strictly avoid it by any means, it’s quite a useful tool. You just have to use it appropriately, similar to stack overflow in some ways. That said, obviously you should use / avoid whatever tools as you want.

Not like this…slurp…not like this…

Is it possible to learn this power?

The cherry on top is that they didn’t even spell settings correctly.

Any advice for getting started with journalling? It’s been recommended to me but it’s not something I’ve ever really done before.

Well, I’m a Star Citizen backer, so…

Hard to tell exactly, but if you want to be more convincing and engaging in these kinds of discussions I would suggest a couple of things. I’m not an expert here by any means though so take with a grain of salt:

Give up trying to convince someone to your side in one conversation. The most you can hope to do is plant a seed for further reflection that may eventually lead to the person changing their mind but don’t even count on that.

Try not to come into the conversation assuming you are right. It can influence the way you talk, makes you less engaging and more easy to dismiss because it can be annoying for people. Try to see it as an opportunity to test and refine your own views, that’s something you can control and an outcome you can benefit from regardless of the other person.

In that spirit, spend time upfront asking questions and understanding the other person’s point of view even if it seems obvious at first. This is a good time to find the areas you both agree on which is going to be really important. Emphasise the areas you agree on and express your agreement whenever you can.

Once you have a good understanding of the person’s position and the areas of agreement, you can start using those areas as a foundation to start building the case for your side. Don’t push too hard, express your views and ask for their opinion, ask them about what they disagree with specifically and listen.

That’s all the generic advice I have really, just try to frame it in your mind as a chance to understand why someone might think the way they do and what you might be wrong about and you won’t leave disappointed. If they’re not willing to engage at all though, best to just move on and not push.

If you’re saying shit like “orange man bad” unironically I really don’t think you do.
