American electric kettles are also quite a bit slower to boil because our mains voltage is so low. https://youtu.be/_yMMTVVJI4c
A towel made of tea, for tea, and by tea.
My boomer mom will put a tea bag in a mug of water then nuke that until it bubbles to make tea. (Yes, even when the tea bag has a staple).
But, if she is heating up a can of soup, she will dump that into a sauce pan and heat that up on the gas range, on the burner right next to the nice kettle I got her years ago.
ZeffSyde@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do movies always get wrong about your job/hobby?3·2 months agoI like how the QA department for Mythic Quest is always just two people. A game as supposedly huge as MQ would need way more (unless they mentioned outsourcing QA and I never caught it).
ZeffSyde@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What’s a thing you miss that you’re 90% sure was objectively awful?5·2 months agoMy friends and I hit up the pizza hut regularly and would just hang out playing cruisin’ USA and whatever fighting cabinet they had set up in the pickup waiting area. Never once got pizza there.
The employees must have hated our guts, but they never kicked us out so we couldn’t have been that bad.

Yeah, if I’m going to look like a sloppy infant by the time I’m half way through it that’s a no-go. And don’t give me the ‘use a knife and fork’ excuse. When utensils are required it ceases being a sandwich/Burger. The same goes for pizza.
They definitely don’t tip their server.
I haven’t been able to enjoy Marjory The Gathering since the release of Fallen Empires. Each expansion since Revised just feels like a cash grab that I refuse to invest in.

Probably won’t go until things calm down here/the nukes fly.

ZeffSyde@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What successful or popular movie that many loved you just HATE?4·7 months agoI’m just thankful that the films left out the majority of songs and poetry and songs that padded out the books. I read the series years before the films and put it down a quarter way through Return of the King because of the lyrical nonsense.
I have heated up a foil lined tetra carton of soup that caused some sparks, but I stopped it immediately and learned my lesson.
