Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 431

Ugh the worst. I have lumbar scoliosis and working at a desk 8 hours a day has me constantly stiff or in pain.

Accidentally fell asleep on my very stiff couch last night and my lower back is killing me today

 

not the point of your post but I gotta ask what set lol

 

LEGO Ideas Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone. It came out to about $60 with the discount

 

great choice

 

Tell my wife that lol

 

Ohhhhh it could have been so much worse! You could have bought a $100, $200, $300 or $400+ dollar set! $60? Nothing compared to what some of them costs!


(I know this isn’t a good statement but this is what I use when I regret a purchase to make myself feel better and yes the dollar value will always be finding something more expensive than what I bought even if it isn’t even in the same category of product so don’t follow this thought process lol)

 

I left a brand new carton of eggs out on the counter for an entire day bc I set them off to the side and forgot they were there. So if I just stop posting I died from eating the eggs bc I'm cheap and hate waste so I'm def gonna eat them still. I do shit like this all the time and I hate it. I'm so forgetful and if I don't do something right when I'm thinking about it, I will get distracted and it won't get done. Why am I like this??

 

according to the Google search I just did it’s probably best to trash them honestly. wouldn’t want you to get really sick from them and that seems like exactly what might happen

 

Don't other countries not even put their eggs in the fridge?

I just do the float test if they're past their date. As long as it doesn't float in water, you're good

 

said to discard if you leave them out for more than two hours if it’s 90 or above tho and well I don’t even have to ask that question in America but you might have a point about the float test

 

Just read that while the float test is helpful, it's not always foolproof. Hmmm. Guess I don't really know, but if they're otherwise new and you don't eat them raw, I wouldn't worry too much

 

if I’m remembering correctly, eggs can be left out / not refrigerated if they’re “raw” in the sense that you get them directly from the source. Any eggs sold in stores have like a pesticide or something put on them which makes them need to be refrigerated otherwise they go bad. Whatever is “originally” on the eggs will keep the egg “sealed” so it doesn’t need to be refrigerated. Seems like a very backwards system we have where we wash eggs which makes them require more work than if they aren’t washed but I can’t remember what “benefit” washing them off does but it’s probably some made up corporate nonsense to companies can sell eggs.


And could I have put anymore words in quotation marks? Jesus.

 

I mean I eat raw cookie dough with eggs in it all the time so this shouldn’t be any worse lol I think I’m gonna risk it!

 

I’m by no means an expert on this kind of stuff but I’d like to try and keep someone out of the hospital if I could

 

godspeed

 

It is kinda nuts how expensive eggs have gotten. I paid close to 4 bucks for a carton, feel like they used to be a buck and some change

 

because you’re right about that

 

if it makes you feel any better I've done this too, turkey did not smell good after being in a shopping bag for a week

 

I felt like puking just from reading that

 

Omg haha was it at least something prepackaged like Shadybrook Farms, or deli packaged?

 

boar's head, I would notice shady Brook I hope those packages are big

 

I hate when people say that if ground turkey smells at all, you should toss it, and that "you'll know when it's bad"

Ground turkey literally always smells like a fart when you first open it! I always get nervous haha

 

That's how I am with steaks when I'm grilling. Sometimes we'll freeze and then thaw them and there's a vague sour smell? But the Internet is so vague about whether that means it's bad or not, and it typically doesn't taste any different or make us sick, so idk

 

Ants

 

Hmmmmm
