Water usage is probably my biggest. Living in a high desert, my wife and MIL see no problem with filling one side of the sink with hot soapy water to wash a few dishes because “that’s just how I’ve always done it”, to watering the grass and plants for hours. All of this makes me mental.

I’m not going to eat a fucking hot dog, I don’t care how much everyone else pretends to enjoy them, they’re a crime against food and decency.

Eating a hot dog on a Friday violates all major religions' rules on food.
Islam: No pork
Hinduism: No beef
Buddhism: No meat
Catholicism: No meat on Fridays
Discordianism: No hot dog buns

Nice. That's the best part.

[-] Maeve@kbin.earth 6 points 6 days ago

Plenty of Buddhists eat meat. Often

[-] mech@feddit.org 5 points 6 days ago

And plenty of Catholics eat meat on Fridays.

[-] Maeve@kbin.earth 2 points 6 days ago

I think they did away with that rule lol. Plenty of Hindus love cheeseburgers.

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago

It's still a rule in catholicism, though a lot of them don't give a shit. There's also some hilarious exemptions as for example beavers and capybara are counted as fish.

I guess Friday is going to be Chili-Cheesedog day for me for here on out.

Are you not dismissing every other type of sausage, or did just not consider them? Because if this is about lips & assholes, almost all of them are all lips & assholes.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

It’s not so much lips and assholes, I know far too much about processed foods to be bothered by that, it’s the taste of a hot dog. They don’t taste like meat, they don’t taste like food, they taste specifically and mercilessly of hot dog. I’m not opposed to a good sausage, but most sausages aren’t good because for some reason almost all of them have to have fucking fennel seeds in them.

Have you tried the Bacon SPAM? It tastes kinda like a cross between hot dog and bologna.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

That can go straight to hell.

[-] tomenzgg@midwest.social 2 points 5 days ago

That's the strongest point in their favor.

[-] crawancon@piefed.social 4 points 6 days ago

I tell ya you're not missing much.

even the best hot dog is, well,l still just a hotdog.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I’ve had hot dogs, I know what I’m missing and I do not miss it.
