Slooooooow Fermentation. What gives? | I'm trying a belgian wit extract recipe, and it's been fermenting for three weeks now. You might remember it from its messy thread here.
Anyway, the fermentation has mellowed out, and I had been planning to bottle today, but my hydrometer doesn't agree with me on the readiness. The O.G. was around 1.035, and three wee... |
What's the deal with disinfectants that "kill 99.99%" of germs? | Why can't they say 100%? Something has to do with the law or legality? Or does it really kill 99.99%? |
Does anyone else think that Jacob might actually be the evil/dark/bad guy? | The first thing that struck me weird was when we saw Jacob and MiB watch what is most likely The Black Rock come to the island during *The Incident*, and MiB says that he doesn't like humans because they kill and are deceitful (not verbatim, but my computer is too slow to look it up right now). Also, Jacob had some pow... |

/r/writing, I need some feedback. I think my diction is too pretentious. | I recently wrote a short blog piece that I'm thinking about submitting to the school paper. It's a polemic, so it's either really good or really bad. I can read it over as many times as I want, but it's nothing like reading it the first time, so a few words of criticism would be greatly appreciated. Here's the link. |
Can anyone recommend a good seller for Kopi Luwak? | I really want to try some of this rare coffee (although I've heard from a lot of critics that it's good, but not worth the price tag). If I'm going to pay $100-200 per pound, I better get a good retailer that is selling the genuine thing. A quick google search turns up a few retailers, but not a lot of info about the... |

At the End of "The Exorcism of Emily Rose," the priest in charge of Emily, who died, was found guilty and sentenced to time-served. If you were the judge, how would you have sentenced him? | Personally, I agreed with the jury's recommendation that the judge order the priest to time served. I understand the hostility to ignorant priests who are responsible for things like this. Actually now I'm mad at those priests so I don't know what I feel lol. |

Reddit, what recurring posts are you sick of seeing? | I'll start it off:
* "What movie should I watch next on Netflix?" You know Netflix already goes through the trouble of recommending a movie for you, right?

Anyone have a good spice rub/marinade for chicken shawarma? | I tried doing this once and found a recipe for "ras el hanout".

Jeff Sessions is my representitive.... what should I do? | So, I went to a town hall on health care with Jeff Sessions answering questions (lightly interpreted) about the health care bill.

Obama has not begun nuclear disarmament. Obama, despite the fact that the Iraq War was based on the disproven claim of nuclear weapons in Iraq, has not actually ended the Iraq war. | Retroactive title edit: nuclear weapons -> nuclear weapons "facilities"/"supplies"/"programs"/whatever

DAE feel like they get nowhere socially despite how hard they try? | I'm 29. I was fairly social in high school and the beginning of college, then from about 20-25 or 26, I didn't make any attempts at getting new friends or even a girlfriend.

What did people think of "Human Nature"? Seemed kind of like Charlie Kaufman's "Idiocracy" to me. | And in a good way. I really liked Idiocracy, but it seemed like a great idea never entirely sure how to carry itself out and tie itself together, edited quickly with more regard to getting across its blunt theme than making a good movie. BUT, underneath there's still this great idea and these disjointed but hilarious m... |
Connection problems. R/tf2, any ideas? | I was playing on the Reddit Central/East server this morning (I'm in lower Michigan) and I had a ping of 7.

Then it would snap back to realtime a... |
Apparently homosexuality is a fetish like BDSM | Does this bother anyone else?
To clarify: in my opinion, the fact that sites like that make "gay" and "lesbian" regular categories (as opposed to a different section of the site with their own independent sets of categories), alongside fetishes like BDSM or redheads, makes homosexuality seem like a fetish, and further... |

As well, is there a reasonable standard method for reworking full websites to work on phones? | With Google now rolling out advertising on mobile networks, I think it's time to rework some client websites to function on mobile phones (on a separate domain).
