As soon as I had the chance.

I have a real problem with authority and being told what I can and cannot do.

It’s the internet. Not much we can do. They will read the comments and do whatever it is they are gonna do. Nothing we can do to stop em.

You sound like you need some help. Like therapy help.

Based on the way you told the story and your responses to other peoples comments it seems like you might have some undiagnosed condition making you paranoid and aggressive at what seems like fairly normal neighbor behaviors.

Best of luck.

I should probably ask my mom to write down her recipes for posterity sake at some point. I think my sister knows some of them .

I think my mom’s recipe is all in her head. I do know that she tends to add some lemon peel zest into the dumpling mix which gives it just the faintest citrus smell/taste prior to the butter and brown sugar being added at the end.

Bed of luck. Let me know how you like em.

Nothing really.

Some of the greatest racecar drivers built their own cars. Some of the greatest race car drivers literally had no idea how to build a car.

Do your thang and have a good time.

She responded immediately. It’s called “Quark Klöße” according to her.

Looks like the specific ingredients and prep are a family thing, but that’s definitely what it’s based on.

Now I can rest easy. It was gonna drive me crazy if I couldn’t remember the name of the food. Haha

That Hungarian dish looks visually the closest but it was definitely made with wet cottage cheese.

I am absolutely going to butcher the name/spelling but it was called “cvlockclusa” in my house. I’ll ask my mom how it’s spelt.

My mom makes these cottege cheese and bread crumbs dumplings that she boils until they float and then you cut them in half and drizzle melted butter and brown sugar on them.

I could never pronounce or spell the name of the dish but she claims it’s a traditional German dessert.

I tried explain it to chat gpt and it had no clue what the hell I was talking about. It kept telling me about Turkish dishes that have the right ingredients but look nothing like the baseball sized dumplings she would make.

If you want OEM look I would recommend: https://www.genera.com/Headlight.html

If you want different styling I would go with: https://www.carid.com/headlights.html

This is another issue. The ride of the front of certain vehicles. Namely large trucks. I’m 5’11" and there are many trucks sold now that have headlights at my shoulder level. It’s ridiculous.

They need to lower the front hoods of all these vehicles. It’s dangerous for pedestrians and just general road safety but it also would help alleviate some of the headlight woes others experience.

If your dog is only trained when you are around and giving commands then it isn’t very well trained.

A properly trained dog shouldnt require commands to keep them from barking/attacking a TV.

There are levels of dog training and most people do basically none or stop at basic commands like stop/sit/come here.

I truly trained dog should be able to sit still while another untrained dog barks in its face without you having to give any commands.

You would be correct. I buy replacement lights from reputable brands with quality parts and adjustability lol

My dad bought some replacement lights for his car recently and he was so angry about the way they were pointed he apparently sent them a super angry letter. I then showed him I could adjust the beams down with my hands and he went back inside to send them another email apologizing hahahahah

Wait till you find out that dogs are trainable and you can get them to stop doing that lol

I don’t think it counts as “nobody watching” since many people saw it technically, but I will often pull over to ask if people on the side of the highway need help as long as I’m not running late for something.

I helped a Hispanic guy recently change his tire since he apparently misplaced his lug nut wrench and he had a blowout. I let him use mine and I topped off the air in his spare that was a little low. Took me a little while to figure out what he needed since he didn’t speak a word of English and I failed Spanish 3 times, but we got there using Google translate, hand signals and grunts haha.

I do it because I hope that if one day I was stranded on the side of the road (and somehow without all the tools I always carry around) that someone would be nice enough to stop and offer assistance.

Be the change you want to see in the world n all that.

The brightness is one thing but also the alignment. These people install new headlights or the manufacturers just do not adjust the lights alignment correctly at all.

I installed entire new headlight assemblies in my car upgrading from weak stock crap bulbs to LEDs with running lights, but I FUCKING ADJUSTED THEM afterwards.

If I am ~50 feet from a wall there is a hard line where the top of my lights do not shine. That line is purposely placed so it won’t shine until cars in front of me unless I am every far away from them or there is an elevation difference. Sitting behind a car at the lights my lights will cut off generally right below the top of the trunk of most sedan models.

I have never seen a headlight that could not be adjusted up and down with a little screw. Maybe the newest cars need an app or something stupid but I would be willing to bet they can also be adjusted.

The fashion industry is one of the most environmentally disastrous industries that serves no real purpose.

At least with things like coal power you can understand why we are destroying the earth and killing people to keep the lights on everywhere (we shouldn’t be doing that either but that’s a different topic).

With fashion it is JUST waste. Most fashion these days is made to be worn a handful of times before it falls apart. Just needless waste with no real value.

I hate the fashion industry with a passion.

Hang on I’ll edit my comment in a second with an explanation.

Copied from my comment in a different thread about this (with typo corrections):

"Many years ago he paid like 5 bucks on fiver to see if some Indian guys would write “heil Hitler” on a sign and hold it up for a video (they did). He was doing stupid edgy humor and playing with fire like many creators at the time. Many people canceled him “fully” a year or so after that when he had the “bridge incident”. He called someone the n word for camping or something while he was playing PUBG. He apologized and took responsibility for using the word…sorta. He continued to make content for a few more years and then he “retired” in Japan with his wife and child. They post update videos every few months but more or less he got his bag and dipped out after he pulled too many stupid moves and was seen as “toxic” to work with.

I don’t think he’s a bad person, but that’s just as someone who occasionally watched his videos over the years."

I am by no means a big PewDiePie fan/expert and I don’t claim to know all the specifics, but this is what I gathered from being on YouTube often from the beginning and having two little brothers who went through a PewDiePie phase.

Designed by a stupid hippy that died to a somewhat survivable cancer because he was a fuckin moron.

He had some good ideas for sure, but the man himself was just manipulative twat. His products are insufferable to use. Even as an apple certified repair technician for years I despise everything about apple and it’s many products.

The only reason I haven’t kicked it is because it would hurt people I love.

If there was some magical way to wipe the memory of my existence from all my friends and families minds I would be booking a first class ticket to hell immediately.

I’ve done pretty much everything I can reasonably do as someone in my tax bracket. All my other hopes and dreams cost too much and/or seem unlikely to happen at any point in the future so I may as well check out.

To be clear I am not actively suicidal right now, but I really think we ought to let people check out if they want to.

I didn’t have a say in being brought into this world and it feels cruel to force people who don’t wanna play anymore to stick around.
