Krispy Kreme donuts. Cold Stone Creamery. Cake Pops.

The one thing Krispy Kreme has going for them is if you can get them fresh and warm, they are pretty damn good, and they generally make them fresh all day. But at least in my area, what they did is open a handful of locations where you could get them freshly-made, let those build some hype for a year or two, then close them down and sell the pre-packaged garbage in grocery stores and gas stations.

IMO they are still generally better than whatever other basic glazed donuts you can buy off the store shelf, but if there's a local bakery that sells fresh donuts though, 10/10 they will be better than Krispy Kreme.

99% of Krispy Kreme in the UK is sold from a small display in a supermarket, where they’re stone cold and greasy as shit.

Nirvana. The band.

I missed the grunge movement in its peak but I got into Pearl Jam and Soundgarden. Just couldn’t get into Nirvana beyond a few songs that I do like. Musically, I feel like both Pearl Jam and Soundgarden dwarf Nirvana.

Elves. They're the vanilla ice cream of fantasy races. Oh wow an elf archer daring today arent we, let me guess smart? attractive? tall? skilled?

Goblins on the other hand they deserve more hype. They're awesome I love those little guys.

Hey don't bring vanilla into this, vanilla is actually an amazingly deep and complex spice and flavor. Common =/= complex or good

Web3. Doesn't make sense. The internet is already supposed to be decentralised.

Romance. Like I get on an intellectual level why people couple up and all, evolution and all that, and that people strongly desire it, but Ive never been able to imagine exactly what it feels like to want that close of a relationship with someone, let alone a formalized and exclusive one.
