The suffering is the point. It’s got nothing to do with morals or human rights or the death penalty or abortion or “Christian values”. It’s all about making “those people” suffer.

So you’d normally say “that’s too much!” in which case the subject “that” is plural and countable so therefore “much” would be correct.

Otherwise you should say “you have given me too many refried beans!” since the beans are volumetric and not countable entities.

It’s been a while since I’ve done long exposure photography and composites, but my recollection is that excessive noise is a symptom of long exposure and high ISO, and stacking multiple shorter exposures into a composite will significantly reduce the noise of the final photo.

Same in VA, but if you buy a 6 pack to go, you cannot crack one open if you decide to stay, it may only be consumed off-site. Some won’t even give you the beer until you have already closed your tab and are on the way out.

Similarly, ranch powdered baked pork chops are super delicious. Get the thin sliced ones if you can find them

You can get semi auto hunting rifles with a capacity of 6-10 rounds. I’m as anti gun-violence as anyone, and generally agree that more gun control is not a bad idea, but outright banning AR-15s is not the answer.

There are too many already out there to make a dent, and anyone can 3D print a lower receiver that will will hold up for at least 20 rounds.

80% lowers are a thing and you can “finish” them with basic hand tools and a drill, then you have an unregistered firearm.

There are many other ways to acquire one illegally or semi-legally, but they are currently pretty “obscure” since it’s so easy and cheap to buy a lower and assemble your own. Banning legal sales will only bolster the alternative methods.

they absolutely could reverse peristalsis just like any vertebrate.

AFAIK Horses cannot vomit, and I also was told that mice and rats cannot vomit.

Lol. That was 2007. I feel so old.

And? It still works.

Speak for your self!

Idk which was first, but it was either blue ba dee or walkin on the sun. Both were absolute bangers to me as a kid.

They are still around in S.E. VA

Seconding the above, I want to say I paid $60 in a pretty average city.

The store I went to is called Jos-a-bank, feel free to look them up but any higher end men’s fine clothing store should have a tailor on site at all times.

There are also dedicated tailor shops you can try looking for one of those.

I don’t think places like dillards or Macy’s will do alterations but I could be wrong.

Worst case the place you go may tell you something like “he only works Tuesdays and Saturdays” or something like that, so you may want to keep trying to get them on the phone, but I’ve not been told that before.

What’s the problem?

My first email was Firstname_Lastname@aol.com. When aol became insufferable and a challenger appeared, I made Firstname.Lastname@gmail.com.

Gmail lets you add "."s anywhere and it’ll still work, so all my spammy or whatever things I sign up for are Firs.T.Nam.E.L.Astnam.E@gmail.com or some random variation. Makes it easy to delete all the junk.

Blue, no, yellow.

AAAAAHHHHHHHHH

Sorry, I just meant that the jasmine rice we get in the US seems different than the stuff you get in a more authentic asian restaurant, but this could be due to many factors. I do realize that jasmine rice was not invented in the US though.

I’ve heard both sticky rice and sushi rice used interchangeably, I’m not sure if one is more correct than the other.

Long grain is American style rice, like uncle bens for example. It’s creamier than jasmine rice, but not quite as much as arborio rice which is the stuff you need to make (Italian) risotto.

Jasmine rice is an American version of a standard Chinese style rice used for stir fry. It usually works well for most American style Asian dishes.

You’ll also see sticky rice which is Japanese rice used for sushi.

Lastly Basmati rice is Indian rice and is characterized by not being creamy at all. You can pick out individual grains quite easily. To me, Basmati rice on a plate acts like 1000 individual items you have to eat rather than like long grain or arborio rice where a big scoop of it feels like 1 single thing you are taking bites of. It really is necessary for authentic Indian food though.

But… It’s a legume?!
