Also, if you have a cast iron pan that is extremely rusted, get a brass bristle drill attachment and blast all the rust off with it.

After you have finished that and cleaned it, season it like the other poster mentioned and it will be as smooth as almost any Teflon you've ever used.

Honestly it kind of sucks.

I always wanted a kid but it requires a partner who is able to be a parent and I have never had such a partner.

I had a pretty fucked up childhood and I wanted someone who could be a good mother to a child and everyone I've dated who had the ability to be a good mother was not capable of giving birth for one reason or another and everyone I've dated who's capable of giving birth was not capable of being a good mother for one reason or another.

I know it's not too late for me but it's getting pretty damn close.

Even better, if you scour your local thrift stores you can occasionally find them for as little as $10 and all they typically need is a cleanup and a new toner cartridge.

I bought mine for $7 4 years ago and it's still working on the toner cartridge that was in the printer when I bought it.

Admittedly, I only print about 40 or 50 pages a year but that's a hell of a deal.

Kind of a car accident:

I was on a smoke break on my job as a chef at an imitation Waffle House one day and I saw a police officer take his cruiser into one of those automatic drive-through car washes.

The spinny brush thing ripped the antennas off the top of the car and turned them into a flail rotating at 40 RPM.

His car looked like it had been attacked by an angry jackhammer by the time he jumped the curb and drove it out of the car wash.

It smashed out the back windshield completely, left dents all the way across the hood and trunk, and had sprayed soapy water into the cab of the car.

I heard not too much later that that police officer no longer worked for the city.

He was supposed to take it to that car wash but he was also supposed to use the little jet-powered sprayer to hand wash the car and him choosing to be lazy destroyed a police car with less than 10,000 miles on the odometer.

I am a straight guy and I have used a woman's restroom.

But only in the context that it was a single restroom and the men's was occupied. I just unilaterally executed my male privilege and declared that the woman's restroom was unisex for the time period that I needed it.

There was nobody else in the room and if there had been first the door would have been locked or I would have been absolutely mortified.

Too bad that if the motion gets denied, chances are the jurors will never hear that Disney pulled this shit in the first place.

If I knew that I would do my best to give a hundred million dollars to the plaintiffs because Disney can afford it and they should be punished for being dick heads and that would be within our power as a jury to do.

I crashed a friend's house one night, and I woke up and $50 was missing out of my wallet.

I asked my friend, who I knew had stolen it, "how can $50 disappear from my wallet overnight?" and he looked me dead in the eye and said:

"I don't know man. It's a mystery."

We aren't friends anymore.

The algorithms primary objective is to generate interaction.

Interaction leads to ad revenue.

The quickest and easiest way to get people to engage with a topic is to infuriate them.

After all, how many of us have apps on our phone that shows them only cute pictures of cats and dogs and babies?

How many feel-good stories do you read in an average day?

How many of us spend our time solely in the pursuit of self-improvement and self-education rather than delving into bitter bickering over politics or religion or whatever the cause of the day happens to be?

It's easy to optimize for the lowest common denominator.

Got tired of losing in the first 30 seconds?

If Trump had lost to Hillary Clinton then people would make fun of him for not even being able to beat Hillary Clinton when there was a multi hundreds of millions of dollars hate campaign launched against her that was so effective that people still hate Hillary today.

Idk, the #1 thing people said behind Dolly Parton's back and held against her was that she had fake tits.

Any conspiracy that you hear about more than two or three times is actually a part of a deeper conspiracy to create so much conspiracy chaff that finding the truth becomes impossible.

The actual deep state Illuminati whatever thing that's behind it all running everything are really just a bunch of powerful old rich people who have capped out on money bringing them any joy in life and the only thing they have left that brings them any excitement is keeping people down.

We have enough financial resources that every person on the planet could work 20 hours a week and have a house and have time to spend with their community and accomplish things that are meaningful to them, but in order for those resources to be distributed fairly we would have to identify the people that are hoarding it and divest them of their horde.
