They take so much disgust and offense to it as if the pizza itself had insulted their mother. It’s honestly one of my favorite toppings and people are just baffled. Is it because of cultural elitism? Or something else? What’s the deal?
I come from an atheist household in a very secular country, so for me the idea that there exists a God has always been presented as incredibly irrational. However, it seems like it is something philosophers disagree about, so there must be some good arguments for God's existence. What are some of…
I used to love Chris Brown's music, and would say I definitely used to be a fan. Then it all came out, and there is actual verified proof that he is a physical abuser. BUT, other artists still actively collaborate with him, and his music is still used in film and TV. I get that he has a fan base,…
So, when I think of stuff there’s usually several layers of my thoughts, one is talking to myself in my head, one layer ”deeper” is where my thoughts kind of prepare for that first layer, and a third layer is things like music that repeats, or more subconcious thoughts, thoughts that prepare the…
A lot of media in Hollywood tries to make it seem like there were white people who cared about the Natives. How true is this? I'd like to believe the number isn't zero, but at the same time, Hollywood does try to make history conform to modern ideologies. I can't seem to find any details about…
By 1391 the Ottomans had the run of Thrace and, increasingly, the Balkans. They helped Manuel II depose John V and were able to order both Manuel and John VII to take part in the siege of Philadelphia. By the sounds of it the Empire had no army, no money, and no allies at that point. So why didn't…
Haiti, Jamaica, and many of the other Caribbean islands were apparently ludicrously profitable in their slave plantation heydays, but none of these countries are extremely rich now. Was this because it was only profitable with respect to money being extracted for a tiny group of peolle that made it…
I am a British girl studying for my postgrad in New York and so far all of my friends are dudes. Basically, none of the girls I come across seem to like me. I’m not sure whether this is some kind of cultural divide but it kinda sucks as I place a lot of value on female friendships. Not that I’m…
Aren't there a ton of people imprisoned in America for the same/similar crimes? Will she be tried here for the crime if she does end up getting traded for?
Those little bones freak me out. I feel like every time I eat fish, I chew it about 40 times and it takes me completely out of the experience.
So I’m really insecure about my inner labia because they come out and make my vulva look kinda meaty :( I wish so bad god would’ve given me a perfect one and I’m thinking about getting surgery on it. My question to men in this sub now here is, If they prefer innies or outies, or does it even…
She admitted to possessing vape cartridges with cannabis oil in Russia, where it's clearly against the law. So how is she being "wrongfully detained"?
Visited LA and noticed all the Teslas. I’m sure EVs are still less than 10% of all cars there but just curious about local emissions/smog
I work in a laboratory and we work with a lot of acids. Because of this we obviously have litmus paper. My question is; when litmus paper is left (away from acid, but exposed) should it stay the same colour? I only ask this as when we tear a piece off the roll a bit of it still sticks out of the…
Is it possible to grow a maple apple tree?
Please help (British): What’s the girl’s equivalent of willy? I (M) fumble for words when speaking to my 3 year old daughter e.g. at bath time when it’s time to wash the outside of her privates. I’d like to find an accessible name we’re both comfortable using.
When piracy in antiquity is discussed, it almost always focuses on the Mediterranean. But there were rich trade routes across the Indian Ocean, with India being a major trading hub, rich in resources of its own while also connecting trade between Rome and China. So it seems natural that with so…
No this isn't a joke I genuinely forgot the word and I don't feel like saying "sexts" to anyone if I can't remember it, thanks in advance and you may laugh at my stupidity :)
I (20something man) have a brother (20something man) who seems to be becoming more and more extreme. When I say “extreme” I don’t mean “political stance I disagree with” I mean that he says and believes legitimately concerning things. As kids, we were fairly close, hanging out and playing games…
Most of the time I shower every other day instead of everyday. People usually tell me that it’s weird to not shower everyday, and I usually just tell them that I agree. Do people just say this in order to not sound gross or is it actually true that you should shower everyday?
Whenever I’m on top of my boyfriend when we have sex I keep getting this sensation like I have to pee so I stop everything and it goes away. He keeps telling me it means I’m going to squirt but I don’t trust it with actually peeing on him
My car broke down so while it’s in the shop my grandma let me borrow hers. I used it for a few days, and before I returned it I filled it with gas and washed it since she didn’t ask anything if me in return. After a few hours she called me and seemed genuinely offended that I had done that, but i…
A lot of cliches in pirate fiction can be attributed to Treasure Island (buried treasure, one-legged pirates, parrots, songs about rum, etc). My question is were these tropes invented by Robert Louis Stevenson, or was he merely using things that were already popular beforehand?
I'm a gentile and have no clue about this and I really don't want to offend. Google isn't helping at all. If it is okay, what ones would be really okay? Is there a flower that would be offensive to send? ? I know that I'm overthinking this but they are very dear to me even though we don't associate…
I'm not American, so why does it seem like a comedian, and not some politician or war hero, is the main voice in favour of the aid bill for veterans? Even the opponents of this bill, such as Ted…
I've been applying to a bunch of jobs, and haven't gotten any interviews. If they do reach out it's just to say they have not selected me for the job. I know I'm not the only one having this issue, I've seen a ton of people saying they are having the same issue. But then apparently there's a…
Let's say you really enjoy turning left. Could you just not take any exits and stay in the roundabout until you need to fill-up/charge up the car? Could cops pull you over? If so, what law could they pull you over for not leaving the loop?
(Edit) thank you for the feedback, I am now knowledgeable in what girls look for
I've stopped using the word because I recognize it's hateful, but now I need something else to fill the job that it used. Idiot and Moron just don't cut it, I need something to really emphasize how fucking stupid someone is
In the 1818 edition of Frankenstein, Elizabeth Lavanza was Victor Frankenstein's cousin. In the 1831 edition, her background is changed to make her an orphan adopted by the Frankensteins, unrelated by blood. Did this change reflect a change in public attitudes in the intervening 13 years?
I don’t mean like becoming the next Da Vinci, Einstein, Tesla, etc. But to make your brain process information faster and easier.
I recently moved and got a bunch of new appliances, a microwave, a stove, a dish washer, etc. Each and every one of those items utters the most obnoxious sound upon pressing any button, first and foremost the microwave, which is so loud that my neighbors actually complained once after I only wanted…
We’ve been dating for 2 years and it’s probably a last 6 months thing. I get really turned on by the fact she dated people before me (obviously) looking for the right person and I love imagining her letting loose and someone fucking her brains out before she knew me. I also like toying with the…
I(20M) have never gone to the club and don't plan to go either but one thing I'm curious about is what people do there besides trying to mate with someone or dancing. I know the point of going to a club is to have "fun" but is having "fun" just flirting and dancing or is there more to it?
(20m) my girl tells me I’m pretty mid at eating pussy I get her to finish but it does take a while I want to be a pussy eating pro please teach me yall ways
To me, a chicken sandwich is pieces of chicken between regular sliced bread. If it’s fried chicken in a burger bun, it’s a chicken burger
Seems to be that from way back in the neolithic until relatively recent Russian colonial settlement, the region has only been inhabited by nomadic societies - from PIEs to, maybe arguably, the cossacks. Why hasn't a sedentary farming society developed in the region despite its richness in…
I get that it's possible, but how exactly? Men are generally stronger, but even in the case that the woman has the upper hand, how does she force himself on him when it's the man that's supposed to penetrate the woman?
Why do women wear short shorts? I've seen so many women wearing shorts that are so short their cheeks hang out and they're constantly walking around pulling them down, so why wear shorts that always need pulling down, surely get bigger shorts? Edit: I am not telling people what to wear or not to…
I am taking care of my currently spotted nephew, and learned in passing that you can have spots all over your body except those two places. I am grateful for that, but was wondering why.
As part of a sexual harassment prevention training in my work place we are required to go over some slides and at the end you answer yes/no questions regarding situations . One scene describes a man and a women waiting for an elevator at the office, the man taps his women co-worker on the shoulder…
Like, does your entire dick FEEL hard? Not to the touch, but like, the sensation of your dick. Of is it more like it feels like something inside of it is hard, and the rest of the flesh is just sort of there? Im 24f, been around penises and interacted with them, but I’m rather high right now and…
Like when you're horny but not for sex for romantic emotional connecting?
I get that they want to be pretty. But I’ve never met a man who likes it. Not one. I’ve been asking. The other day I saw a coworker try to type and I was like watching chickens eat. I just don’t get it. Will someone please shed some light.
I don’t think I’ve seen a black person with trisomy 21 (Down’s syndrome). Are black people less likely to have it? Do they have higher risk of complications and are more likely to die? Anyone with info please enlighten me
