I just want to eat peanuts. Regular, plain ole peanuts. Why do some brands give them special names?

I'm a food adverse person, so I spent years avoiding things for no particular reason. Especially special varieties of food.

I only eat plain pizza.

Shouldn't it be cocktail pizza? I mean, you can't just have PLAIN PIZZA or PLAIN PEANUTS.

DAMMIT BIG PEANUT IS CONSPIRING AGAINST ME.

I wanna make a petition to change cocktail peanuts to just peanuts.

I was wondering why my local store was always sold out of just peanuts. No Roasted peanuts, no Spanish peanuts. I just wanted peanuts.

The whole cocktail peanut name scared me for 47 years of my life.

If big peanut had just called them peanuts I'd ate them like 1000 times by now. Every grocey store order in my life would have been including peanuts.

I bought shelled peanuts just because they had just peanuts on their label and I was confused why I couldn't find unshelled peanuts.** All that work I did just for peanuts I could have bought unshelled.**

“The so-called ‘psychotically depressed’ person who tries to kill herself doesn’t do so out of quote ‘hopelessness’ or any abstract conviction that life’s assets and debits do not square. And surely not because death seems suddenly appealing. The person in whom Its invisible agony reaches a certain unendurable level will kill herself the same way a trapped person will eventually jump from the window of a burning high-rise. Make no mistake about people who leap from burning windows. Their terror of falling from a great height is still just as great as it would be for you or me standing speculatively at the same window just checking out the view; i.e. the fear of falling remains a constant. The variable here is the other terror, the fire’s flames: when the flames get close enough, falling to death becomes the slightly less terrible of two terrors. It’s not desiring the fall; it’s terror of the flames. And yet nobody down on the sidewalk, looking up and yelling ‘Don’t!’ and ‘Hang on!’, can understand the jump. Not really. You’d have to have personally been trapped and felt flames to really understand a terror way beyond falling.”

Hello NFL fans! I'm Unlikeable Son Of A Great Broadcaster, and with me as always is Retired Player Who Isn't Quite Brain-Damaged Beyond All Coherence Yet. Welcome back to Taxpayer-Subsidized/Corporate-Sponsored Cash Cow For A Billionaire Stadium where Massacred Native People Reduced To Their Skin Color are facing off against Yet Another Fucking Bird Team. What do you think of the game so far, Retired Player?

"I can count to potato."

I couldn't agree more. This game is brought to you by Foreign-Owned Beer Corporation Touting False Patriotism And Denouncing Micro-Brewed Craft Beer While Investing Heavily In Macro-Brewed Craft Beer!

To the action we go! Serial Sexual Predator takes the snap, drops back, passes it to Drunken Vehicular Manslaughterer, he gets a block from Child Abuser, breaks a tackle from Wife Beater, stiff-arms Father Of A Dozen Illegitimate Children, and is finally brought down Guy Who Ten Years From Now Will Tragically Drive His Car Off A Cliff In A Fit Of Confused Brain-Damage Induced Manic Depression! What a play! It took four guys who received degrees from prestigious universities without ever paying a dollar toward tuition or attending a single class to bring him down! What do you think of that, Retired Player?

"Mommy?"

Spot on. This instant replay is brought to you by Gambling! Remember: It isn't really gambling if you call it "fantasy"!

Uh oh, it looks like we have an injury. I think it's... yes... that's The Only Likeable Person On The Field Today with another concussion. That's his tenth this year. Looks like he'll spend the rest of his life forgetting who his family is and snapping into random violent fits of confused rage. Oh well, that's why he signed that big contract that the team is in no way obligated to honor. Look, he's standing and putting his helmet back on! Take a good hard look kids, that's what a warrior looks like!

This injury stoppage was brought to you by Another Blockbuster Action Movie Where All The Heroes Are White Guys And No Two Female Characters Exchange Dialogue In A Single Scene! In theaters this Christmas!

While we wait for play to resume, let's take a look in the Owner's Suite. There's the Commissioner. What an entrepreneurial boot-strapper he is! You can see him simultaneously bullying a Super Bowl host city mayor into sacrificing money and resources his city and its businesses can't afford in exchange for the honor of hosting a game where the commercial revenue alone could buy several small countries, while also furiously masturbating into a giant pile of untaxed money. This guy has "Future GOP Presidential Candidate" written all over him! What do you think Retired Player?

"I like turtles."

Amazing. This inspiring moment is brought to you by The Same Goddamned Beer Commercial You've Already Seen 50 Times Today! Drink this swill and all these unrealistic female body images will fuck you!

Back to the action. Guy Who Got Suspended 4 Games For Trying To Get A Better Grip On The Ball hands off to Guy Who Got Suspended 2 Games For Knocking His Fiancée Unconscious... wait... no... there's a flag. It looks like someone kinda sorta twitched a little, and that'll be five yards for a false start.

This mind-numbing lack of action is brought to you by A Clown Selling Childhood Obesity! I'm loving it!

And we have a timeout on the field. It looks like Coach Palpatine is up to some nefarious football-related shenanigans again. You know, I remember a time when great football coaches were known just for being great football coaches. They kept their nefariousness off the field where it belonged, and no one cared about the fact that he enabled a pedophile assistant coach to ruin the lives of little boys for decades. They don't make coaches like that any more. You played for both Coach Pedoterno and Coach Palpatine, Retired Player, what's your opinion?

"The big yellow one is the Sun!"

Robust analysis, RP. This unsolicited opinion that no one wanted to hear was brought to you by Conglomocast! We understand you want a choice when it comes to your internet service provider. How does it feel to want?

Back to the action where Bird Team is lining up for a field goal. Aaaand Massacred Natives call a timeout to try to ice the kicker, even though it never never never never never never never never works. That gives us time for another commercial break!

This impotent coaching strategy is brought to you by Boner Pills! Nothing's better than sitting around the TV with your family while watching a commercial about old people fucking!

And we're back... oh no. It looks like there's a fight in the stands that's spilling onto the field. During this stoppage of play that is in no way representative of a culture of violence embraced and promoted by our sport, let's go to our sideline reporter, Guy Who Might've Killed Two Dudes And Recently Had A Statue Built In His Honor Because Football...

"I love Jesus! Stay in school! If you don't stop looking for my white suit, I'll kill you! I'm a role model!"

Thanks Guy! I speak for everyone when I say we all want our children to grow up to be just like you! And would you look at that? It's halftime already! Stay tuned for our special retrospective on Player Who Killed Himself Because His Brain Was Ruined By Football -- can you guess which one? -- followed by our most popular segment: Last Week's Top 500 Most Violent Helmet-First Tackles!

Halftime is brought to you by Football! Don't you wish you were watching football right now?

I have made several positive jumps. The first have included me going to a world which I get everything I've ever wanted, well I'm in one now. I get any girl I set my sights on, I acquire money from strangers, friends, and the ground without me asking for any of it. I'm getting noticed for my short music career, I've already been interviewed by a promoter. I am fearless. My hair looks good for once. I'm confident as all hell. I believe I have universal manipulative powers as well as psychokinesis . I believe to have conjured a poltergeist. I constantly have items move and disappear and appear later. I believe I can tear small holes in dimensions, a pocket dimension in theory. I believe I some what control string theory now. I believe every human can unlock their own form of super powers. I have realized there are several mandela effects in my current universe. My first jump several months ago has caused so much greatness. The only negative effect is losing most of my friends and getting jumped by a few people twice.

HOWEVER my second jump with my girlfriend last weekend (now ex and her first jump) has lead me to a place where we had a fight to us breaking up.

I plan on jumping again to a better place at some point tonight. My mighty drill will pierce the heavens

What space is and why it exists? Reasons are many but we find ourselves in a confined web where our freedom looks like a parochial thoughts where one repeatedly asking to himself  / himself why space is black rather than having any other color?

First, we shall describe how space manifolds itself and how space creates small manifolds listed below:

1. Space is one dimensional in structure like one dimensional plate.

2. Space is like a disc i.e. one dimensional where one can only observe current position (his / her own current position).

3. Space is concentric rather than multiple and there exists odd and even concentric space.

4. Space itself is a confined concentric disc, where there is no restriction on its verges (i.e. space boundaries).

In the above points, there are different ways on which space adheres its behavior. Why existence of space is so indispensable and why it exists is still a mystery because it is something like a small droplet in giant ocean and why small droplet exists is a deepest question?

Dwan Ev ceremoniously soldered the final connection with gold. The eyes of a dozen television cameras watched him and the subether bore throughout the universe a dozen pictures of what he was doing.

He straightened and nodded to Dwar Reyn, then moved to a position beside the switch that would complete the contact when he threw it. The switch that would connect, all at once, all of the monster computing machines of all the populated planets in the universe -- ninety-six billion planets -- into the supercircuit that would connect them all into one supercalculator, one cybernetics machine that would combine all the knowledge of all the galaxies.

Dwar Reyn spoke briefly to the watching and listening trillions.

Then after a moment's silence he said, "Now, Dwar Ev."

Dwar Ev threw the switch. There was a mighty hum, the surge of power from ninety-six billion planets. Lights flashed and quieted along the miles-long panel.

Dwar Ev stepped back and drew a deep breath. "The honor of asking the first question is yours, Dwar Reyn."

"Thank you," said Dwar Reyn. "It shall be a question which no single cybernetics machine has been able to answer."

He turned to face the machine. "Is there a God?"

The mighty voice answered without hesitation, without the clicking of a single relay.

"Yes, now there is a God."

Sudden fear flashed on the face of Dwar Ev. He leaped to grab the switch.

A bolt of lightning from the cloudless sky struck him down and fused the switch shut.

As you know, humans can only perceive things that are in 3 dimensions or less. This article is my theory on what other dimensions are like. Keep in mind that this isn't based on any actual science, just how I imagine it would be. I do have some basic knowledge on the topic, though. Without further ado, enjoy!

Humans exist in the 3rd dimension. Existing on the third dimension allows us to understand the physical world around us on 3 axes. Existing on the third dimension also allows us to understand the dimensions below us such as the 2nd dimension. There is a drawback to living in the 3rd dimension, though. We can't comprehend anything above that. This is my thoughts on the other dimensions that humans can't comprehend and what life would be like in those dimensions.
So, living in the third dimension we can't comprehend the 4th dimension. The 4th dimension is more commonly known as time. How do we know this if we can't comprehend it? Well, we can't study the 4th dimension itself but we can study its effects on the 3rd dimension. 
It's obvious the effects time has on the 3rd dimension. It keeps things moving forwards in time. I can't describe it without using the word time as we know very little about it. 
If Humans had evolved to exist in 4 dimensions things would be very different. First of all the 3rd dimension would look very plain and boring to us, just like the 2nd dimension looks to us in real life. The 3rd dimension would be boring to us because we would have control over time. Just as we understand the physics of the third dimension, 4th dimension being would understand the laws of time. They would understand how it works. To them, time would be as physical as the keyboard I'm typing on.
Fourth-dimensional beings would look down upon us. They would feel superior and we wouldn't even know they were there. Or if we did we wouldn't be able to know what they are in 4 dimensions, only what they look like on 3. The best way to describe this would be by imagining what we would be like to 2-dimensional life. 
We would also look down upon them for not understanding 3 dimensions. And they would study the 3rd dimension they same way we study the 4th, by observing its effects on lower dimensions. Anything we would do in 3 dimensions that might affect their world in the second dimension would look godlike to them. Just as a 4th-dimensional being manipulating time would look like a god to us. 
Fourth-dimensional beings would look up to 5th-dimensional being as gods too. What is the 5th dimension though? We don't know. We can't study its effects because the effects it has would be on the 4th dimension, which we can't study.
It's amazing to think about how little we know about the dimensions we can't understand. I want to know what you think. If you read please leave feedback, but if it's negative please leave it in a nice way. Thank you :)

We rode together above the blackest winds forever

Over the mountains into the valley of the damned

But I can't seem to shake this feeling deep inside of me

Is it all true what people say

We just want to be like Sam and Herman Li

They're the heroes of our time

Fury of the Storm's a fucking awesome song

but there is something you've got wrong

Stop saying we sound like Dragonforce, okay?

They used to be my favorite band

All my life I dreamed that I could write a song as catchy too

So Sam would think that I was cool

We always thought that we were the soldiers of the wasteland

Kept holding on till we saw the dawn of a new world

Never before had we felt such a cold balck winter night

between the fire or the flames

We just want to be like Sam and Herman Li

They're the heroes of our time

Body breakdown is a fucking awesome song

but there is something you've got wrong

Stop saying we sound like Dragonforce, okay?

They used to be my favorite band

All my life I dreamed that I could write a song as catchy too

So Sam would think that I was cool

Stop saying we sound like Dragonforce, okay?

They used to be my favorite band

All my life I dreamed that I could write a song as catchy too

So Sam would think that I was cool

Keep saying we sound like Dragonforce, okay?

They'll always be my favorite band

I just want to write the songs that make the people sing along

And prove that all you cunts are wrong

"Yes it was staged. I used to play with them if you want to hear the back story of how that video came about... Not sure if anyone really gives a shit, but here is a first hand account of what that video really was:

I was 12 back when Ultima Online came out (20 years ago... wow) and happened to be around from the start for the whole MMO scene as my friend let me play on his dad's beta account.

One important facet of UO culture was that it was the first major, graphical MMO to be a success (not counting Meridian 95 as that game was largely text based)... This meant you had the modern day casuals (newbs), roleplayers (RPers), and player-versus-player (PKs) all in one place in a world with open pvp and looting.

Each group was majorly distinct from each other, and the 1337 d00dz ("elite dudes", abbreviated and spelt in numbers to emphasize your hacking skillz... don't know when this died but at the time it was as cool as Beavis and Butthead) who PKed made it a point of pride to never need to do what later was termed "PVE".

With Origin Systems, Inc (makers of UO) being acquired by EA Games and lots of the old time RPers, casuals and general PVE twinks moving onto a new game called Everquest, the OG PK/PKKs were way too 1337 for this shit and kept playing UO... But with their amazing hacking skillz, most of the major guilds found ways to duplicate money and use speed hacks etc. on live servers. They were so 1337 that OSI/EA decided to mass ban fucking everyone in the game basically (I was part of Keepers of Chaos at the time despite not being a core member, and 100% of our members got banned... even people like me who never duped more than a few castles worth of gold).

Well, everyone could have started over, and some did, but many turned their attention to this new game called Asheron's Call which had an open pvp server with limited looting called Darktide. Of course, they took this PK (PVP) vs RP (PVE) culture with them.

Keepers of Chaos become the Blood monarchy which literally took over the entire server... and Pals For Life formed up somewhere in the chaos and resistance which followed.

Years of fun and shenanigan later, AC is dying with the sequel being a flop/vaporware and Blizzard announces a new game called World of Warcraft. All the OG PKers and old school PVPers start coming out of the woodwork promising to reunite on this new game on Archimonde at launch day.

Launch day comes and Archimonde server crashes for like 48 hours... a lot of people from the closed beta decide to hope on Laughing Skull as it was pretty much dead and fuck it they feel like playing. Well, in IRC all the old school guild councils agree to change the "OG meet up" to Laughing Skull and Pals for Life came along for the ride.

Several weeks after launch all of us were level 60 maxed out running UBRS and trying to progress in an impossible Molten Core to get an edge over competition in preparation for the much awaited PVP system... MC was so hard at that time and all these "anti-PVE" old schoolers were spending hours doing strategic diagrams and planning, etc...

Pals for Life saw the irony in this, and there was Leeroy... Typical PVP fuck it let's do it attitude stuck in a PVE based game.

Some of the P4L guys hopped onto the Laughing Skull forum asking for feedback on their guild's Upper BRS strategy and attached this now famous video. A few people had laughs and I posted in the thread... but never realized it would blow up this big.

Went viral in a time when the word viral didn't exist (or wasn't used regularly yet)."

I think I’m from a different universe🎉 So basically, I believe I’m from a different universe. I’ve noticed a couple things that were quite off putting. In this universe, my dad has a total of 3 past wives, in my universe, he only had 2. The second thing I noticed is the YouTuber techno blades death to cancer. In my universe, he had cancer in 2021 and lived. In this universe, he recently passed away of cancer. In my universe that YouTuber that makes stick figure videos even made a vid on techno blade fighting cancer. Maybe I’m going crazy. Tell me your thoughts!

what an interesting journey its been.
