- 'slowly' I think is the answer.detritus
- cut into quarters, and suck the seeds off the yellow pith.
or the posh way, remove all the seeds first then eat them with a spoonhans_glib - my gran taught me the first way, my wife is always less than impressed by the slurpy sucky dribbly resulthans_glib
- ... yeah.hans_glib
- fuck it i'm eating the seeds, they are chewabledrgs
- cut in half, place flat side over a bowl and tap curved side with a spoon to release the seeds. might be able to turn inside outsofas
- lol drgs did the same thing years ago... didn't even think to come here for schoolingArchitectofFate
- The only way: break into quarters (scoring skin first with a knife). Then remove seeds with fingers - not a spoon!Gnash
- seed fall out easily in groups by pushing them sideways off the white flesh of the fruitGnash
- then eat with a spoon. I eat at least 2/day in the winterGnash
- You eat the seed inside each one? We had a tree growing up and that was not an option with the fruit we picked from it.monospaced
- I thought the seeds were the white spongy stuff inside each grain, until I just started eating them wholedrgs
- of course, you eat the seed within.Gnash
- throw 'em all into the juicerscarabin

- Like my partner: Leave them on the side until they dessicate, then throw away and buy another one, promising that THIS TIME you WILL eat it.detritus
- We have one from her parents garden.
From October.detritus - cut them into quarters, then pull the seeds out into large bowl of water. the pulpy bits you don't want will float to the top. dump water and pulp. eat seeds.sarahfailin
- I ate two today. I'm addicted to these things, they are deliciousdrgs
- i can't get enough. it's the only 'winter' thing i look forward too.Gnash
- crush the seeds while they are still in the rind, then cut a slit in the rind and drink like a vampire.cannonball1978

so since my mac pro trash can crashed died (its on a flight to the us to get fixed) i ordered a modified MSI gaming laptop for work, my mac had 3 displays, 1 was a 40” LG tv, so since i wont need so much external displays, i moved the 40” tv to the bedroom where we already have a 4k 40” tv (also LG) i figured we’d use one for the playstation, so just now i turned it on, but they both turned on. fuck! i quickly compared the remotes and their the same fuckin remotes. god damit!

When I occasionally drive our front wheel drive VW Passat on the snow after regularly driving our all-wheel-drive Audi Q7 on the snow, I drive like a damn drifter because I’m totally not used to the weak handling of front wheel drive in snow and slick roads anymore.
- That's a pretty big vehicle downgrade.zarkonite
- It's like night and day. Just got my first AWD whip.section_014
- I only drive the Passat if I'm going a mile to the train station to park and head downtown.mg33
- That's brutal, you should hire a driver. ;)zarkonite

is it okay to put my image scanner on top o my refrigerator?
I mean, it has a board in between and there's no heat generated from the refrigerator affecting the scanner.
logistically it's also the best place so I really would like to know but I didn't find any info online.
I confess that I feel a bit stupid.
- it's not energy efficient for a fridge which requires air on all sides for efficiency. also opening and closing door during a scan could cause small glitches.omg
- put the fridge on the scanner. scan it. sell fridge. profit.shapesalad
- better to use an open frame spacer that allows air flow, and not touch fridge during scanning process.omg
- +1 shapesalad!oey
- i will never open the fridge while scanning that you guys can be sure.oey
- the refrigerator needs refrigeration that's what you guys mean right? the scanner doesn't get cold neither the fridge warm. i'll improve it. thanks!oey
- I don't mind. Go for it.Fax_Benson
- Thanks for your permission Faxoey

I fell on the ice and ripped the skin off the tip of my middle finger. Now, with a band aid on, I can't swipe my laptop trackpad with my index & middle finger, I have to use my ring & pinky finger...
- lol. Sometimes I play the guitar so much my fingers don't work on my screenset

Realising you actually do need a shit after all, mid-way through standing up for a piss

- This definitely isn't a 3rd world problemmonospaced
- ^ are you calling those places shit-holes? :)Gnash
- Man I hate when this happens. It just throws everything off.mg33

All the tile samples I ordered to pick through for my basement are basically the same tile and now I can't chose.

The Le Creuset espresso cups are scratching the stainless steel on the new coffee machine.
- those things are awful for the environment.sarahfailin
- which things???MrT
- If you mean Nespresso, I wouldn’t buy one of those even if George Clooney spat on me.MrT
- I'm almost certain that "nespresso" pods just contain instant coffee. They've got that same super acidic nastiness. What a scam.monNom
- Speaking of which, I had some Sanka instant coffee recently. It was actually pretty good.monNom
- I get my beans off an old Turkish dude in Sydney and use an Italian espresso machine. WANKER.MrT
- oh i misunderstood. glad you're not using coffee pods.sarahfailin
- The wanker was me.MrT

Cancelled a toolbox order due to delayed shipping. Ordered a new toolbox to replace that order... in stock. Get notice it's ready and rush to pick it up before they close. For my convenience, they've prepared an assembled floor model, which doesn't fit in my Jeep. I'll have to come back tomorrow with a truck. So where I once waited for the toolbox, the toolbox now waits for me.

2 Bags still in transit and I have to leave on Friday morning to Warsaw for a week. The only shit I have is a simple bag and my notebook. What is missing its battery because I left it home, the only computing thing I have here is a server with a shitty 14" display. My criminal brother borrowed and broke the phone I left here, and my mother lies about it. So tomorrow I have squeeze in to the schedule a trip to buy some lame laptop and a phone, visit the airport do deal in person with the package situation what i'm afraid going to be dead end. FML.

I bought the wrong kind of bananas. I like those small, organic ones, which I think taste better, but I bought huge, unripe regular bananas.
I ate one and it was so big it made me nauseous.Discuss
- were you looking anyone in the eye while you ate it?Gnash
- I eat bananas in the bathroom in privatedrgs
- I can easily eat 3+ of those large banana's. You're banana's if you get nauseous after 1...shapesalad
- did you chew it or just ram it straight down your throat. that can trigger your gag reflex if you're only used to the small onessarahfailin
- small organic ones only!Krassy
- as it should be, drgs, as it should be.Gnash
