  • Outta the 3 mentioned, I gotta pick ketchup, but if we’re talking favorite sauces or condiments, gotta give it out to toum. The incredible garlic taste in a spread is to die for and works wonders on everything from veggies to steaks to chicken to bread. Seriously, try making a grilled cheese but 86’ing butter and subbing toum. Fuck, that’s amazing.

    Shout out to kewpie mayo, tho, the condiment I use irresponsibly on so many things it doesn’t belong…

    Naw I’m a decent human being and you can’t say the same about yourself.

    You violated community and site rules with your post and now you’re shitting your pants over it by making a multiple post hissy fit about your bigoted trash getting rightfully removed.

    For someone who calls themself old geezer you sure act like a fucking baby 🤣






  • I usually buy the tubs from Barrister and Mann, I find their shaving soaps to be of a significantly higher quality than Sterling, but I never considered getting a buncha samples instead… I wonder if I could reheat them and use them in a tub? I have a small shaving mug for soaps I used before getting stuff from B&M, but I usually just put my brush directly into the plastic tubs.

    Also, are you sure the B&M samples are equal to one forth of a tub? That doesn’t sound right. The samples are small lil pucks, I think the tub may contain far more than 4.








  • How thorough of an understanding do you want?

    One could read Wikipedia pages on the broad strokes of these topics and have a fairly functional definition of both to get on with their daily lives. Or one could take a more academic approach and read Marx and Smith along with other philosophers and economists.

    Part of the issue with both methods is that the meaning of Communism and Capitalism seem to change depending who you’re talking to and in what context. They are both such contentious topics that there’s a great deal of propaganda, misinformation, common misunderstanding and willful ignorance around them.

    So, are you hoping to engage in debate (or moreoften argument) about the merits of one or another? Or just hoping to gain enough understanding that you aren’t confused when the topics come up in casual conversation? I’d advise against the former. It’s exhausting and seems unproductive. At least online. In person, it makes more sense, but you’ll have a hard time finding people who are opening to considering changing their opinion on either system. If it’s the latter, you can really just make stuff up, it seems like most others do anyway.
