Huh, that is weird. Amaretto is the clear choice.
And what’s really peculiar about doing that is you have no pets
At one point in 2008 all my pets had passed away and I spent 2 weeks without any until my current cat was old enough to bring home. Messed me right up every time I left my apartment.
Another quirk: after I scoop the litterbox I can’t touch anything until I’ve washed my hands. If there’s laundry to be brought up I have to go downstairs, scoop the kittyboxes, go upstairs and wash my hands, then go back downstairs for the laundry.
Yes, and the “Perfect” number of eggs (6) should be in checkerboard-formation.
No, no, no. The whole idea is to center the weight into the safest, most protected parts of the carton. That’s why it’s necessary to use the corner eggs first, then work your way in until the front row is empty. . .
:o
errrr. . . . not that I . . . ummmm . . . I think I hear Celtling calling me.
I never go barefoot indoors. I often am nude from the ankles down, however.
No, actually, I want to keep the moment of inertia such that the angular acceleration will vary proportionally only by mass. A carton with four eggs at the center will have a too-low moment of inertia and will allow rotation about the center with too low a force proportional to the mass, compared to a full carton. Even distribution allows you to pick up the carton with any number of eggs without being surprised at how it balances.
By your logic, the last four eggs would actually be in the far corners of the carton. That’s just a sticky goopy mess waiting to be cleaned up.* Clearly you don’t have a child rummaging through your fridge on a regular basis. :rolleyes:
*I suppose this must assume paper cartons, the foam ones are less likely to flop open on you.
When I do this, I’m thinking about how to maximize the polar moment of inertia of the carton so it is more stable. Sort of like designing a splice plate connection for a bridge girder.
When I eat pizza, I eat the crust first. Then I figure out which bite will be the choicest (biggest hunk of sausage and/or pepperoni) and save that for last. I’ll nibble around the piece so that all the toppingless portions are eaten first, then attack the pieces with topping, finally ending with the best bite.
On entering a plane, I’ll pat the fuselage next to the door.
I shave before going to bed so I don’t have to in the morning.
No, see below.
I don’t try to maximize the moment of inertia–that would mean removing eggs from the center and working your way out. I try to approximate the moment of inertia as if the remaining mass were evenly distributed.
Because you’re not indoors?
It’s pretty rare to find something I don’t like, but when I do, this.
Yes! I’m not alone!
I also used to eat my meals one item at a time, leaving the best for last, especially if it was something I hated, like boiled dinner. Boiled tasteless potatoes first, boiled tasteless carrots next, boiled ‘nearly tasteless but still nicer than the potatoes and carrots’ beef last.
Also ate the crusts off a sandwich first, and ate the rest of it while keeping it in an even square shape as much as possible. I also open up a roll or bag of candy and sort it in batches with one of each colour, eating each batch with the least favourite colour first and the favourite colour last. Uneven batches that don’t contain all colours get eaten before complete batches.
To avoid any further hijack of this topic I have started another thread to publish my findings.
Many of mine have already been mentioned which makes me feel better for some reason
I also have “around the house” clothes and “outside” clothes and a third category for “work” clothes which overlaps with outside clothes but is not quite the same.
When eating a meal I always save at least a little of my favorite thing so that it will be my last bite. With things I really like, like bacon, I may save the entire thing for the end.
If I am eating a group of things, one of them has to be plain. Like if I am eating hot dogs, one has with nothing on it. Bagels, plain bagel with nothing on it etc. A plain donut etc. One of my dream foods is I wished they made chocolate chip cookies without the chips so I could have one before I ate the regular cookies.
I will pull apart sandwiches to eat the components separately but only when I am nearly finished with them.
Oh, that isn’t right! You should always have dessert first! Something could happen!
I have a special spoon I use to eat ice cream. It’s small and has a flat end, instead of the typical point.
I like to have soda or some other sweet drink with a meal. But I almost always leave it untouched until I’m finished so it’s my dessert.
Sometimes I have a Healthy Choice frozen dinner, which usually includes a hot sweet fruit something-or-other as a “dessert”. I will finish everything but the “dessert” and a little bit of the entree. I then eat the “dessert”. I don’t want this to compete with the different sweetness of the soda, so then I finish off the entree, which leaves a savory taste in my mouth. The sweetness of the soda then contrasts well with this.
Somewhat similar to some of the cake-eaters above, when I eat a Hostess cupcake, I remove the frosting and eat it last so I can get the full taste of it.
When we had devil’s-food cake as a kid, I would turn it upside down and eat the cake first, then squish the frosting between the tines of the fork and lick it off.
Although I used to eat each item individually, saving the favourite for last, now I often distribute the bites as evenly between items as possible, especially when eating a cooked breakfast. Different items pair up as well: egg and toast, black pudding and potato scone, sausage and beans, and if any, grilled tomato and/or mushrooms with bacon. I always save some of the black pudding and potato scone for last, and a bite of beans to go with them.
I could eat ice cream with this spoon.
