I dated a girl who was militant about the seed end being the RIGHT end and anyone opening it from the bunch end was wrong. Her reasoning is that in cartoons the banana peel that characters slip on is ALWAYS opened by the seed end.

I work in the grape wine industry but at home I make fruit wines. I always crack up when someone says this grape wine tastes like cherries or blueberry.

I dont drink often anymore, and not heavily, just a few glasses of wine or a beer or two. I don’t feel like the pear affects the high at all. Maybe I don’t get hungover because I don’t drink enough, but I like to credit the pear.

My trick is to eat an asian pear before drinking. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23587660/

It also says you end up in debt, not owe. So it would presumably cost you everything you have and THEN the original amount.

I have a crowbar that I named Art. I like to compare my crowbar to a piece of art, it’s a masterpiece of engineering. So many uses for the humble crowbar, such a simple and powerful piece of equipment. I love the way it feels in my hand, I love the way I can stash it anywhere easily and keep it handy and secret. The Crowbar is Art, and I study the Art of the Crowbar.

I’m gonna go the other way with this one. I got a reuben on a pumpernickel bagel last week and they put thousand island and cream cheese and wet ass saurkraut on it and it was a soggy fucking mess and it ruined my lunch. I may never go back to that bagel place.

My first thought also. Developing the infrastructure to exploit natural resources under the cover of providing humanitarian aid, while simultaneously supplying the weapons that create the need for humanitarian aid.

Objective tinnitus is a thing, though less common than subjective tinnitus. It is possible your ear actually is producing sound others can hear, though I guess only with a stethoscope, not the naked ear. https://nyulangone.org/conditions/tinnitus/types

Doorways cause memory loss, whenever I’m going to a different room for something I say it out loud as I pass the threshold of the doorway.

Maybe not quite what you’re looking for but Tom Hanks in “A Man Called Otto” might float your boat.

Seems like actual viking burials were…burials…I’m no expert but skimming a few Google search results makes it seem like the burning ship thing never really happened, or at least rarely. Most vikings were ritually buried with weapons, grave goods and sacrifices. The burning boat thing is a Hollywood invention from a Thor myth maybe? Anyway this is why it’s not allowed in most places, you’d need a professional to administer it with as you say a specially constructed ship designed to fully create a body. Your family can’t tie together some logs and burn you themselves. So we’re right back to an expensive funeral industry, but now we get to witness the cremations outdoors so maybe a win.

Burning rafts don’t get hot enough to cremate a corpse, it’ll just scorch you and dump your body in the lake to wash up on shore and terrify children.

The song is called “Bodybag” and I’m pretty sure it’s by Hit the Lights? Really bad.
