A lot of people use margarine in the USA and that stuff is just one particle away from being plastic.

Well I learned something new today on ySense I don't use margarine either, I was not always like that, as a kid I consumed butter, I used butter to prepare fried eggs in a pan - now when I think about it I gag and want to throw up, I cannot stand the site of butter, the smell or the taste, I am having a gag reflex just writing this, that and Yogourt which is essentially rotten milk, I consumed that as a kid but not anymore, cannot stand it, same with cheese, the only cheese I eat is Mozzarella, Parmesan, Swiss regular and a few types of ethnic ones, that's it, you won't see me eating Bri or Blue Cheese (rotten moldy cheese). I have a great palate the likes of Gordon Ramsey, I can taste right away if something was cooked in butter.

Butter.....gotta have butter, love butter popcorn, butter toast, butter on tater....butter butter butter.

i eat plain toast, no butter, if I wanted to simulate it, I would spread it with olive oil and salt no butter on my toast, but I'll gladly have sliced banana and peanut butter

Why ? What happened to your teeth ? Not everyone loses their teeth with age, were they really all bad ?

Quote:
My last 7 teeth will be gone Monday afternoon. They did suggest partials for the upper where my last 7 are, but I said no, take them all.

You are a dentist's dream come true - why all 7 ? was it really necessary ? Don't forget to put all 7 under the pillow, hopefully you will get a refund, in the days it was a quarter a tooth, today it must be higher, maybe $5 a tooth

Seriously though this is so depressing, it's depressing even to read, someone losing all their teeth, this should never happen in the first place. If you install dentures you can enjoy all that crunchy stuff, instead of the crazy glue, ask them to use the long screws that go all the way down, this should keep the dentures nice and tuck, you'll be able to eat rocks

Quote:
So, I am eating all kinds of crunchy stuff and stuff I won't be able to eat after my teeth are removed.

I bought applesauce, ice cream, and bananas.
I guess I need to buy some nutritional shakes.

Nutritional shakes my arse It's all hype and bullshit. I know people with dentures and they eat everything.

They don't make liquid versions of the square oats, but you'll probably still be able to eat anything you want with dentures, for the criminal price they charge, it should be able to handle food well

valerie wrote: I had zucchini for supper. I fried it with a tad of oil, butter, onions, garlic powder, and thyme.

A few days ago I baked yellow squash with butter, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese.

I love the stuff and can make an entire meal out of it.

I was thinking of making zucchini bread but not sure how well that can be eaten with teeth extraction/dentures.

In the era of squared slop simulated food packets, you won't have to worry, you won't need any teeth Butter is something I NEVER cook with, butter makes me gag, I hate it, I cannot even stand the look or smell of it, I know it is included in many pastries, I don't mind, as long as I do not taste or smell it, but I cannot stand using it AT ALL in cooking, only use oil in everything. Another alternative would be simulated food profile flavours, they could come in gummy bear format or powdered, just add 1 part goop 1 part powder and mix, more than 150.000 different flavour profiles, comes in different textures, thick goop or liquid for those without teeth

Who is that Ape ? , is that his private page or what ?

Strange world , one is never sure what one will see around , maybe I can start posting a bit but not sure how to do that , so far I did never post in my life , please help

Maybe you are one of the few (1%) actually earning on this site Tasman1

It's hard to post success stories when there aren't any - I do post some from time to time, though less than before, because just one or a few days high earnings in a month is not a success, when this site is going downhill fast for those concerned - but on second thought, earning ANYTHING on this site would be success by today's standards here

It's just that I "invest" Less time on the site, I mainly log in either early morning or late evening, once they start adding all those stand alone routers and removing all the GARBAGE PureSpectrum duplicate $10 and invites that always lead to a screenout and are sticky, not removed from the list, then I'll post more success stories - my integrity is not for sale, well it is, but my fee is 7 figures

Not everyone is comfortable posting about their stats / earnings, and only a tiny percentage of people post on forum, I know personally for a FACT some members here earning very well, and I mean VERY well, in the 2 figures DAILY, unfortunately it is not for everyone, it COULD be, but the site decided to only offer routers and good invites to some people / countries, even though the routers support many other countries - I see lots of PRODEGE surveys listed on 2 other sites, with $1-$2 rates, not a single bloody one here, they decided to use only PureSpectrum here for ySense surveys, when they used LUCID before - quality standards for this site has gone down big time - that's not success, that's failure. The only thing keeping me here is Peanut Labs and Talent.com, I would be unable to earn most days without those 2.

UPDATE: On this site today I earned 80+ cents....crummy survey invites all the way. Site #2, $11 for less than 30 minutes work through BitLabs router and other, but I cannot post success stories from other sites so...here we have to go through so many empty shells and irrelevant garbage to qualify - on site 2, the survey invites are mostly relevant, and rarely are there issues if at all, high paid surveys on Bitlabs there are common - this is a router they should add here, they source many surveys from Samplicious - did many $1, $2 surveys that were only 4 or 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, back at home, the richest man in the world spend 44 BILLION on a goofy social network site.

Exactly, that was my reaction too, I've said it so many times, so much money WASTED and so much food wasted, yet people are starving - and of all the social media he bought Twitter - is it really worth 44 billion, what a rip-off, there are many good businesses that are struggling, that are much more useful than this crap, and some social media full of scammers, spammers, conspiracy theories, fake news, etc, gets 44 billion ? Well today Twitter dropped 20%, as Musk decided to hold off (temporarily) on buying, because he wants to make SURE that Twitter's fake accounts and spam represent less than 5%, he is waiting for the data to confirm - What a joke, this is such a BS move to plunge the stock, and make his friends some good money when it skyrockets back up - If he was concerned about the spam and fake accounts, he should've thought of that before offering to buy it - why is it people with the lowest IQs that are the richest ?

Quote:
Can you imagine for just a few moments how some of those billions of dollars could save those people and animals and create crops for food? Create water reservoirs, wells, cisterns, greenhouses, animal sanctuaries, vitamins, nutritious foods, and more more more.

I don't like the man. I don't appreciate the man. I think he is full of himself and cares nothing for others.

Yeah try telling that to the greedy and rich - that's enough money to invest in infrastructure in many poor countries, unfortunately for the rich it has little to no returns - These rich spend their money not because they are generous, because they are greedy, they EXPECT to get back what they invested + profits - I wonder how long it will take for him to profit on this transaction though - Trump said he is not interested in joining back on Twitter anyway, WELL at least he didn't buy Amazon

Here is the article as I am not making this up:
https://www.pcmag.com/news/elon-musk-to-let-trump-return-to-twitter

Read the comments people leave below that article, someone made a good point, pretty much inline with something I wrote here, without even read his comment - so Musk plans to unban all users, AND .............. he wants to release Twitter's source code - Great hackers rejoice

Just as I predicted, it was so obvious, initially he made no comments - now he does - of course, I mean who would pay $45 billion for a social media that only allows you limited number of characters in a post.......so one day he woke up and decided on a fast way to recover his "investment", it's called, "restoring freedom of speech", so he decided that once the transaction goes through and is official, he will unban Trump who was permanently banned from Twitter. Now we all know that there is no room for fake news or posts inciting violence and murder on social media, but we also know that people will do it anyway by other means - so instead of banning someone, you remove the posts that violate the guidelines, but wait, you apply 2 standards - regular members get banned, but politicians don't get banned, only their post gets removed So Musk will soon welcome Trump back to Twitter, 2 things can happen, Twitter shares can skyrocket and Musk will recover his investment sooner than later - OR Twitter will plummet because they rather have bullshit politics, lies, deceit, war mongering politicians a.k.a Obama, Biden and the likes. So we'll see.........Of course this is not to say that Twitter will allow anything to be posted. Question is, what does Trump think of this ? Trump is Trump, he won't change, freedom of speech goes a long way even offensive stuff is covered, but there are certain lines that won't be crossed I'm sure like, promoting violence, only the terrorists are allowed to have their own web sites, and gang members, but not politicians, no way......double standards, again.

In my opinion, any FAKE news that can directly or indirectly harm public health or public safety should be off limits and not allowed on social media - This includes false information about the pandemic, vaccines, etc, claiming virus is a hoax, etc. As to Trump, he is no different than ALL the rest of the politicians out there, only Trump is obvious, the other politicians are just more clever at lying, bullshitting, stealing, and doing what they do best, NOTHING. Does Trump spread false news ? WELL ask yourself do other politicians do the same, YES on a daily basis, they SPIT lies, and continuously tell people what they want to hear, lying about the state of things, lying about what they accomplished, etc, but it's funny how people have pounced on Trump yet they don't pounce on Biden and his disastrous administration so far, of everything - there are good liars and bad liars, the silent ones are the most dangerous.

Biden is allowed to go on social media and claim that inflation and rising costs are his first priority, now isn't that fake news, it is in every sense, because it should have been his priority a very VERY long time ago - on the first hint that inflation would be higher than expected, but instead he believed the bullshit from the Fed reserve's chair, Jerome Powell who told a massive lie that this inflation is transitory - he's letting the Feds run the show and destroy what's left of a once strong economy......now is that leadership ? It's a typical politician that is just a more convincing BSer, more so than Trump, only Trump can be the bigger BSer, but more obvious, but yet he produces some results - so let's see now, if you had a choice, would you want a total BSer who sinks the ship, or a BSer that gets results and keeps the economy afloat ? The choice is easy

Good job Elon Musk, now finally Twitter users can get their daily dose of free entertainment

You won't, you will just adapt - You know how in some countries water is not potable - if tourists drink the water they get violently ill yet the residents drink it and are fine ? Same thing you will just adapt to eating simulated food in the form of black mushy squares - it'll not be tasty like the real thing but it will be better than starving to death - besides it won't be any different than most of the food in this part of the world, artificial, processed, sweetened and coloured
It might even be tastier than some of the stuff sold out there

How many times have you heard people say that school is so boring, that you are taught stuff you will forget and not be useful - WELL to some extent it is true - Some of the stuff is boring af - I mean why the bloody hell do they make philosophy a requirement to get your college degree - waste of bloody time - if you wanted to be a poet or philosopher you would be one - instead they should teach stuff that is truly useful and that people can remember, because not only should they teach it, they should teach you the work experience - not just have you take an exam and answer stuff, most of which will be cheated and answered purchased in the back alley next to a dumpster and paid by bitcoins to some nerd selling test answers so he can buy his new $1900 gaming chair.............. Sex should be mandatory, not only that they should have an entire course on predators and pedophiles, kids need to be made aware very early on about the dangers of a world full of predators and pedophiles, combined with that, self defense should be mandatory, with awareness you will not find underaged online being stupid and sending pics or being lured by the CREEPS out there - now THAT kind of learning is useful and for life. They should teach about real world economy and basic stuff, cooking, bare minimums, budgeting, managing money and how economy works........ Why is school so boring because the topics are so boring and no student wants to listen to all that boring rubbish - if they wanted to spend their day listening to rubbish they could stay home and watch re-runs of Obama's Presidency Learning can be fun and useful, if they had COMPETENT teachers out there.

This is not quite true - in an ideal world we should all be equal, but in reality we aren't, cultures are different - in this part of the world the culture is "f*ck around anything that moves and is cute", on both sides, because a coin has 2 sides right, guys and girls equally, although for guys it's statistically worse - people don't respect their own body (look at how much people mutilate their body and transform it), and don't respect others. Not everyone behaves the same way everywhere that's for sure - over here people say stuff like "Bitch you ugly why don't you go hide in a dumpster" OR they say "Hey you fine I wanna hump you till sun set" Western culture stands out - try this experiment - go live in China or other Asian countries for a year and observe people there - now go live in America, or Canada or UK, and watch how they behave there - they often immigrate to these countries and become "Westernised" or "Euroised" and adopt the mentality and culture of the country they go to. SO they often get judged by how they act in their new country, but in reality, they were not like that initially, people can go from a good culture down to a rotten one - fortunately not everyone transforms like that.

As to @Tasman1, and others, there is a difference between RAPE and seduction - of course every guy would dream of being jumped by a hottie - but in reality, you DON'T want to be "RAPED", rape doesn't have to be only about being shagged, it can involve violence and is a CRIME, it's about power, it's more than sex, so I'm pretty sure not all female rapes would be pleasant to guys, unless a guy consents to being memed, whilst being shagged or consents to acts of violence, but that would be messed up, there probably ARE guys that fantasise about actual rape, the same way there are females who fantasise about being beat up and raped, but that's MESSED UP either way, rape is no joke or laughing matter because most of the time it's non consentual, it is a crime either way, some women are easy and seduce guys and get it on - they are not rapists, unless the guy refuses advances and says no and they continue, I'm pretty sure you would not like it if a women comes to you with a gun and a knife pointed at you and made you remove your knickers and tell you to do stuff - because statistically it's likely not to be an attractive one I'm not so sure guys should be going around wishing for that to happen, I know I wouldn't, not all guys are man-whores fortunately, not all guys f*ck everything that moves, not all guys are like a specific Canadian TRASH rapper wanna be I have in mind.

That's rubbish - you can't tap and go just any card Tasman1, it needs to be a contactless credit/debit card or whatever card - if it's an old fashioned non contactless card, it will need to be swiped. The contactless cards are also hybrid and have a magnetic stripe so they can be used both ways, tap that or don't tap that

Not knowing how to tap that ? First you gotta make sure your Credit Card is compatible, old fashioned CC won't work you think some chipped CC I think You probably know that already..........Today it's tap that, tomorrow it's the chip implants on your forehead -guess we won't have a choice but to refuse that, oh well.......

There is also mobile payments too, I don't think you can embarrass yourself at Walmart, people in retail already know that not everyone is aware of that payment method - you would only embarrass yourself if you tried to tap a conventional CC that does not support the technology now that would make any person "smile"

Once upon a time a good education got you a good job - NOW it's not a given anymore, there are people who have wasted a lot of money for education and have been unable to land jobs - WHY is that ? Reality - Once upon a time it was a worker's market, huge demand, few or enough workers to fill those bloody jobs - TODAY, the situation is like surveys here and elsewhere - demand is massive, so it's an employer's market now - they get thousands of resume for one bloody position, you have potentially thousands of people with high education get rejected for a job they are qualified for - often people need the money and give up and end up working in a different field. Then you have another problem, a high education does not mean you are the right person for the job other that flashing your diplomas, that are good enough to wipe your arsehole with - because you may have that diploma, but you do not have the right skills, experience and attributes to work for a specific company, WHY ? Because of the garbage education system that relies more on theory and textbook learning than actual practice and work experience - an exception to that is medicine - you cannot get your M.D. unless you go through years of residency and practice, Medical School has both textbook and practice, and in order to keep your MD license you are required to take continued education (25-50 hours a year or even much more depending on your specialty). In other fields, you go to University, f*ck around, learn theory, get an exam, and get your Diploma - you enter the job market with papers but with no WORK experience - unlike Doctors. So the whole education system is a big SHAM.

Cost of living set to skyrocket ................. No need for rest of story , we can all understand what it is

Hell is here , We are in PERFECT storm

and what has your incompetent government done about this also ? Why the hell do we vote ? Governments are bloody incompetent, they do not act early, and then when it's too late they yell foul and say "it's out of my control", of course it is, they should've moved their scrawny little arses and never let this happen - when economy was booming and growing beyond what was expected after lifting of restrictions, the moment they saw signs of inflation going up instead of acting like a bunch of c*cks that the lot are and claim that is was transitory, they should have assumed for the worst and tackled inflation in the very beginning - now it's too ******mned late - the only way to tackle inflation is to create a deep recession - you know it's kinda like inducing a coma in a human, f*ck with the economy, tank markets, reset everything, destroy all the savings and investments people have made, rear end seniors living off of their investments - no problem for long term investors though, not a ******* problem - recession is a COWARD's way, a pure INCOMPETENT way of dealing with inflation instead of acting early and doing something about supply chain issues, instead of having been quick to re-open everything instead of gradual - two things can happen, a full blown recession, but what next, we have a perpetual pandemic with waves to come in winter, so once recession is over, people will spend again, and if interest rates remain high, company earnings will not be on target and markets will remain low - it looks more to me like we are heading for a stagflation more than anything - OR inflation will go way down, but drag economy down with it.

The US and Europe's incompetence in averting a conflict in Ukraine did not help - this war in Ukraine only makes a sh**** situation even worse - inflation - energy and tech in caca land - piling debt - high bloody interest rates, if I didn't know better I'd say we are getting close to a 2008 scenario - and now Biden touts his first priority is inflation - ahahahah the bloke was asleep for 40 damn years, now he wakes up - too late for that, he missed the train - now he has Jerome Powell doing his dirty laundry, and the Fed mishandled this situation too, and now have no choice but to rape the economy and rape company earnings - a dirty downright disgusting hack to tame the inflation - shame on them !!!

Damage is done now - no matter who wins in 2024, be it Democrat or Republican, they will have a lot of impossible challenges - Trump obviously won't do any better with the pandemic, but Trump won't let a sinking ship sink further, I'm pretty sure he does a better job of bullshitting - his bullshitting gives results, lasting ones too

Under Trump there would be no war, under Trump inflation would never have reached that high........ Under Trump, he would never have re-appointed Jerome Powell, who should have raised interest rates sooner than later, better to raise too soon and live with some market fallback, then wait too late, and wait for the shite to hit the fan on all fronts, high inflation, recession, etc.

If Biden can somehow do all the right things and manage to reverse high inflation and high cost of living and find a solution out of this war that should never have happened under his watch, then he truly deserves a second term.
He still has nearly 2 years bullshit - throw more money to help this country, that country, he should start by helping the millions of starving Americans who cannot find a place to live - crime, homeless, it's important to help people who voted for you first, not *** them in the arse.

Blame Biden and the Fed Chair he reappointed for another 4 years ! Biden did F*** all about pandemic when he promised he would, he did F*** all about the economy, he did F*** all about about inflation - all he did was WASTE tax payers money and throw away money to help a country that had its fair share of fault for this current war, so yes, watch markets slide down the toilet now, we are in for a deep recession, expect at least 2 years of negative returns before any chance of a recovery - The democrat party is a SHAM this administration is a SHAM - 2024 cannot come too soon enough, hopefully a Republican will win it and do something concrete about stuff that really matters and no more bullshit. Then you will see markets go back up - Biden totally STUNK UP any chance and any hope, and he's not done yet.
All he is good at is insulting journalists and calling them stupid SOBs, when they are asking him important questions, sending him the message that he is doing a piss poor job.

We are not in 2008, if we meet a 2008 scenario yes, and WW3 is unlikely, at least not now, it would not be a good time for Russia or any country or the best interest of any country. 40% drop, what makes you say that ? Right now the only thing driving markets down is the f*cking inflation - things were ok before the incompetent Fed Chairs shafted the markets last week - Markets tumbled during early pandemic, by almost 40%, it quickly went back up, if that scenario happens again, like all times in history markets dropped, it will recover, in worst case scenario like 2008 it could take years, likely scenario this time it could take 1-1.5 years - likely much less (months) if the earning and inflation reports show encouraging news. I think we are likely to see encouraging news that will rebound markets a little - I do not believe the drop will be that drastic - Also Putin is really shocked and never expected the resistance in Ukraine, Russia is weakened economically among other things, it is not in a good position for a full scale war - WW3 is less and less likely, now it's a WW3 based on words - The West and EU are united, something Putin and Xi never saw coming, this does not create the best condition for a full scale war, I'm anxious to watch Putin's trial, just like I was anxious to watch Saddam Hussein's trial, that b***tard SOW !
