Dude's technique for twisted doughnuts was masterful, no way could I do it, but they're all wearing surgical masks, so I'm assuming it's recent that it was recorded, but get this, THEY'RE NOT WEARING GLOVES! So they have the surgical masks on, but they're touching the fresh doughnuts with their grimy hands, possibly infecting the doughnuts. COVID 19 or not, you wear gloves when touching food in food service, the virus only makes it more crucial to wear gloves. Seriously, the woman covered the in sugar with a glove on one hand and the other hand was gloveless.

Someone in the comments said, "the masks are meant to protect their faces during frying," which is bogus. If you wear anything to protect your face when frying, you wear goggles, not surgical masks. I have goggles at work that I wear, and I also have gloves to wear while frying (which the guy does) that protect my hands and wrists from any grease splashes.

I'm going to throw MS Word through the gosh darn bird gauntlet if it's keep his malarkey up. I'm writing a story. A gay story, with gayness, and I'm writing dialogue. I use contractions when I write dialogue. "You're" instead of "you are," "he's" instead of "he is," and so on. MS Word puts little lines under them, and I'm all "But why"

"Consider using less contractions."

I'M WRITING DIALOGUE! NO ONE IS "I LIKE HIM, HE IS SMART"! THEY SAY, "i LIKE HIM. HE'S SMART" OR "i LIKE YOU, YOU'RE NICE," NOT "I LIKE YOU, YOU AR NICE"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I wish mine had told me not to use contractions when I was writing my first paper after years of not being in school.

Mine still criticizes my choice of words though

Living with dirty disgusting hoarders.

So on multiple sites I browse, I get the ad from Zenni or whatever that company that sells cheap glasses online is called, for "gaming glasses."

What in the holy heck are gaming glasses? I've played video games since I was three, and my eye sight it terrible, but I don't think I need specific glasses just to play video games.

Family of origin drama. Same feces, different day. Everybody goes to the trouble of hooking up & having babies, but then the babies suffer because these sperm & egg donors don’t really want to be parents—they’re too far up their own rectums to care for anyone at all, even themselves. These sperm & egg donors want to get drunk, batter their partners emotionally, mentally, & physically, & then hook up with the next warm body with the misfortune of staggering into their field of vision. Because, “love”.

My company announced their next round of scholarships for the upcoming semester for certain workers going to college! Oh boy!

They pick twenty people per district. They had the names of all twenty of them and where they went to high school at. In my district, 17 out of the 20 went to private schools. Please explain to my these kids are getting a $10,000 scholarship while the college kids I work with are struggling to survive and aren't being given a penny, yet these privileged kids are being given a free ten thousand dollars?

As if it’s not bad enough u r making soup on a 102 degree day, u r making split pea soup, which resembles vomit in its smell, appearance, consistency, taste, texture, & temperature. ...& people think I’m a witch?

A neighbor letting their dogs run around in trash & feces. People breeding pets for money when pets are executed every day in shelters. Hoarding.

Omg, the 2nd gen hoarder is driving me crazy today. Even more than usual. Go get yr supply someplace else, strega nona! Hopefully they will bug right off after lunch.
