Yeah there can be oils and mayo that actually contains truffels, but on the whole they are usually artificially flavored.

Real truffels are intense in flavor, but don’t block out other flavor like those artificial flavors. It can be an awesome additive, but due to being expensive it’s often over used. In the type of money over substance way you described.

Lunch box vendors around the world:

Great victory, due to our efforts nobody has flat sandwiches anymore!

Also we have no potential customers left so we’ll go bankrupt

Nope it’s reminiscent of burning rubber and it’s a flavor that drowns almost everything else out. A consommer tv program in my country found out that they don’t even use real truffels in the making.

But it sounds expensive and is instantly recognizable by anyone. Just like the aesthetics of the rich, another poster was referring to. Loud, bland and very recognizable as ‘expensive’.

If you work for a boss that fundamentally misunderstands what you are doing, then misleading them into thinking you’re ‘hard at work, making decisions with consequences’ is the theatre you put up to keep the cash flowing.

It’s one of the fundamental flows of autocracy, people try and represent what you want them to

I can see how that makes coping easier. And follow your agreement for a bit.

The grasmower argument doesn’t gel with me, though. I can’t release human agency that easily. I mean one doesn’t have to anthropomorphize a human being, as they are -well- a human being.

But on the ethical side of this much debate is possible. It hangs on the free will/ determination side of debate, not really one end all answer.

Your username is incredibly apt here

I do agree with that, but you can’t say there wasn’t awareness on his side.

While I follow some of your argument I cannot entirely absolve the self in matters of addiction. It is a medical condition, but I wouldn’t call alcoholics who drive under the influence and kill a person not responsible for their actions., therefore drowning in a drug induced stupor has a function of responsibility in it.

I’d argue it didn’t happen to him, but he did it to himself. A sad way to go, for sure, but he was well aware of him doing it.

If he dislikes it so much, he can just leave the EU.

I’ve always had that dislike. I even do not wear clothes with text on them as I feel like I’m constantly saying that. Often the texts designers put on clothing is nonsensicalb stuff. F.i. Hollywood, I’m not from there, I’ve never been there, why would I want to say Hollywood the entire day?

There’s surprisingly little overlap between text people put on clothes and what I’d like them to say but there’s a shitload of clothes the people feel like it needs some text on it.

Anyway that’s my pet peeve.

He just had Rutte visit and thinks he could arrange that for him. Rutte skirted the question by affirming that the defense of the polar region was important.

Hear, hear

I aim to please o7

Since they are both dogs, even though Goofy is anthropomorphic, Pluto and Goofy could technically procreate.

Do with this knowledge as you seem fit…

They’ve asked Denmark as well, which is quite tone deaf.

There’s a reason Putin has focus on this region. It there’s negotiations he can’t be seen to given up Russian territory, so holding it gives Ukraine a great negotiating position.

It’s not that great for info either

Mike Myers as both Wayne and Austin Powers. He has a way of doing corny characters with soul, and that’s quite rare.

I want to see the sale figures on this
