muffins and (new style giant frosting-heavy) cupcakes -- both equally annoying to eat

peel the sides down w/o tearing them, it makes a cup for u to catch crumbs in, then eat the top in portions, then the bottom in portions
if you cannot detach the portions w/ yr fingers w/o making a crumby mess then u need to find a more buttery muffinmaker

^This also works where frosting is present.

One of those annoying life hack pinterests macros suggests lopping off & flipping cupcake tops to create icing sandwiches, but I have not attempted

made out of two small tortillas in a rowthis is hilarious
this is hilarious
I know! Every so often they attempt 'world food' or whatever the hell they think a burrito is and each time they improve one thing (this time, it had rice in it!!) and make one thing worse.It is mainly eaten by students so they get away with it

two tortilla burrito would be p upsetting imo

When someone is attempting to pick the brains of others/"crowdsource" and concludes a request with "Go!" like we're all supposed to trip over our own feet rushing to satisfy the request. This isn't a race, you don't need to tell me to "go". It actually makes me want to help the person less. So mean of me, but true.

I agree. Not that you're mean, but that it is annoying.
― Jeff, Monday, 17 February 2014 15:26 (twelve years ago)
you cut the muffin in half and put it in the toaster. Then smear butter on the halves.
Of course you can't do this with glorified cupcakes and the only place that does decent muffins in Marks & Sparks and they're zionist bastards anyway.
Must look into using bread machine for preparation of muffin and pizza doughs, its supposed to be able to do both easily but so far I've only used it for breads.
― Stevolende, Monday, 17 February 2014 16:43 (twelve years ago)
Muffins are super easy to make in a bowl without a bread machine -- you don't have to knead them or anything. It's just a batter, slightly more floury/less wet than a cake batter. http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/blueberry-muffins-recipe

we get these fancy reams of paper at work that are shrinkwrapped. the first page of the ream has a non-removable sticker on it with the paper type etc. so the first page is useless for printing. it's such a ridiculous waste i hate it.
also we get large rolls of paper to use on our plotter printer. the rolls are sealed with adhesive tape...that tears the paper underneath when you remove it. surely, SURELY you would have half a brain to figure out that maybe you should seal it with removable tape so that the paper is not marked by your stupid non-removable tape.

It's strange to think that there are people out there who look at support form boards the same way the rest of us look at facebook, ilx, templeowlsbasketball.edu, etc.

As bad or worse, people who answer, "That's not possible." E.g.
Asker: How do I disable the Insert key on my keyboard? Answerer: I don't think you can do that. (others offer instructions for remapping keyboards)Answerer: I never heard of doing that. I don't see how that could actually work. Asker: Thanks, that worked!Answerer: That wasn't a good idea. You probably just ruined your computer. it's impossible THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOUa;dklfja;sd

"Two tortilla burrito" should be a phrase for something needlessly complicated. "How's the security line at the airport?" "Ugh, they make you go through this stupid maze even though no one's in line. It's such a two-tortilla burrito."

Books that are told in first-person viewpoint and recount long dreams full of dialogue quoted verbatim. Dreams do not work like that. And they're boring to hear/read about.

I have a facebook friend who posts his dreams all the time -- he's a good writer and they're very imaginative and poetic dreams and they're STILL boring as fuck to read about. I've only known one person ever whose dreams were interesting to hear.

carl agatha is the only person I've know who can recount dreams in an interesting way. I can't figure out her trick. Probably she's a witch.

Also thank you.
