LOL wth Russia.......

I feel a certain schadenfreude when it's Russia we're talking about.

There's an entire subreddit dedicated to these problems.

http://www.reddit.com/r/sochiproblems


That toilet paper in toilet one is actually pretty common in old world countries with ancient plumbing. The pipes just aren't wide enough for toilet paper and you can actually clog up things up big time as a result.

A lot of the other stuff is funny but that one I can understand to a certain extent.


I seriously, I mean SERIOUSLY, doubt this is still a problem anywhere in Russia. Some people just got so used this that they never change. I recall in Korea they had to ran a campaign to stop people from keeping toilet paper in bins. I've had peers in university doing this in apartments.... IN CANADA. Old tradition dies hard.

Vegetarianism gets a bad rep in the U.S./ internet for some reason. I blame the bland food most people call vegetarian that people get in restaurants. No wonder people don't like the idea of it. WHERE MY SPICES BE AT??

I am on a quest to find the perfect salad. Whenever I happen to find my way into a restaurant I try a salad I haven't had before.

I think people dislike vegetarians and vegans the same reason people dislike bible thumpers.

I think they are generalizing a whole group of people unfairly. I've never actually met any vegetarian that tries to force their view point on me. Nor have I met any vegans who do that. I'm sure there are people like that, but there are people like that for everything.

Ugh. LCS is doing it again. It's messing with my entertainment rationing. With it, there's too damn much that I want to watch/do. I've got 24 half hour LP videos to watch on my backlog plus 2 seasons of a tv show. Doesn't help that it brings along some coke series teams I care to watch.

Oi.

Don't hate on veggies, it represents one of the bigger luxury problems of our world.
Also, a lot of the "lolrussia" stuff could easily have been fabricated though. I feel very sorry for the workers at OS village, hope they don't end up in siberia...

Some of the finest things about the Olympics:
1. USA already has a gold medal.
2. Jamaican bobsled team is back
3. Athletic women are hot as fuck.

The thing with commercial orange juice is that it's processed to hell and back. They deoxygenate it for longevity and preservation, which makes it lose color and nutrients. So then they need to put color and nutrients back artificially (so it sells), and ass tons of sugar for flavor.

The fresh stuff is really great. Also, there's this really cool brand in the UK called Coldpress which uses pressure treatment so you retain all the flavour. It's really good.

for the record, I don't actually hate vegetarians, I was just kidding - didn't realize it would start a small discussion lol

my first serious gf was vegetarian and got me to try a whooooole ton of foods I never had before and really broadened my pallet

unfortunately she also scoffed at my love for meat, which annoyed the shit outta me - but vegetarians are totally cool as long as they don't shove their greens in my face being all high and mighty =)

Unfortunately I have literally not met a vegan who isn't incredibly judgemental about the dietary choices of other human beings. I'm sure they exist, but I only run into the ones who embody everything that everyone actually does hate about them. Maybe it's a selection bias thing, because those who are making a personal choice for themselves don't feel the need to be outspoken about it to literally everyone they make contact with, and thus I don't know I've actually come into contact with them.
