Why does nobody talk about how many calories are in a single Chipotle burrito?

Bro, youre acting like thats a BAD thing. Two in one sitting is just efficiency. I knocked back three once and it was the most productive day I ever had. I planned my whole kitchen remodel from that couch. Sometimes you gotta let those gummies do their job and marinate your brain.

Just found out the original ending of the Dexter finale was way different

Yeah I used to think the lumberjack ending was kinda fitting in a weird way, but reading about the lethal injection thing changed my mind. That original ending would have actually given the show a real sense of closure instead of that weird open-ended thing we got. Makes you wonder what other shows dropped better endings for worse ones at the last second.

My coworker told me to skip the first 3 episodes of Dark and I almost quit the show

Why do you think watching a show the right way matters or doesn't matter to different people? Like, I get that it's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but some folks really get into the details and the small moments. What's the cutoff for you between being invested in a story and just getting too worked up over nothing?

Found a weird trick that saved me $400 on closing costs

Man, that's exactly it. It's not just mortgages either. This junk fee stuff is everywhere now. I see it on car repairs, cell phone bills, even utility statements. They toss in a "processing fee" or "admin charge" that nobody can really explain. It's like companies just decided to add a 5% tax on everything because they know people won't question it. Good on you for catching that flood cert fee though, that's a huge difference. I've started getting quotes in writing for any big purchase or service and then asking them to itemize every single line. The magic phrase is "explain this one to me" and watch them squirm. Your mileage may vary but I swear most businesses will fold if you just push back a little.

My sourdough starter went from bubbly to dead in 3 days flat

Put the starter in the fridge next time. Seriously. Cold slows everything down so a hot streak doesn't ruin your timing. I feed mine once a week, pull it out the night before I bake. Also helps to use cooler water when you feed it on those hot days. Like straight from the tap cold. Keeps it from overproofing overnight.
