How did you spice things up in your life?
How did you spice things up in your life?
While I am leaning towards sex, any thing that you felt that spiced up your life works B-)
Usually salt, black pepper, red pepper, cumin, cardamom, dried hot chilies, cinnamon, coriander, and mace.
Often herbs as well.
Usually you want to dry roast them together first.
Instead of dry roast try adding just a bit of neutral vegetable oil. It will bring out more flavor.
Depending on the exact part of life that I want to spice up, clarified butter is nice.
Mmmmm, butter.
Garlic powder! How is that not listed? You are not doing a good spicing up
I think of garlic as being more herb-like than spice. Same with caramelized onions.
Get a motorcycle. Ok, so if you don’t know how to ride, get a cheap second hand bike under 600cc and take the MSF Basic Rider course. Guaranteed to spice up your life, give you a desire to get out of the house, and you’ll meet many cool people.
Yep. I'm on a bike older than me, she's light and dependable even in the Seattle rain. Street bike, but I still camp with it 👍
Be safe and don't forget to get there, https://shouldispeed.com
Invest in some good motorcycle PPE.
Seconded!
I quit my steady job, broke up with my beloved gf of many years, moved back to my home country and am living with my dad.
Just started a new job. Spicy.
Why did you break up?
My family was a mess in my home country and my siblings were doing heavy lifting without me. Also, despite the strong love between us we had language issues and I was slowly retreating into my own head abroad.
(imagine: if every ounce of wit or humour you had, fell on deaf ears, or had to be explained, or said less elegantly. A piece of you dies every time.)
I think I would have resented her if we started a family, as I likely would have gone into full autopilot. I wish I was born there, or that she was born here. We really could have been happy if it weren't for the communication barrier. She still means the world to me, and I just want her to be happy.
Psychedelics
My midlife crisis at 25 was learning how to safely perform dangerous superhuman shit
What shit?
As far as sex goes, occasionally I'll invite a second person
Hell yeah! Two-somes are lit.
Hah nice sentence! Lit in French is a bed.
for really real. i am pretty tired of all the “ménage a un” and onesomes i have been having.
if you ever are feeling depressed/hopeless, go sit on the grass in a cemetery for a good minute. then visit a hospice, then visit a retirement home.
if you ever dont feel like doing some chore around the house, try doing it blindfolded or without your hands. it becomes awesome and hilarious.
if you find yourself trapped in a conversation, throw in a totally unrelated quote.
if someone is being mean to you, say their name and then stay silent.
oh and for sex stuff, be unpredictable and enthusiastic. many people are just missing FUN.
Slam it to the left If you're having a good time
Shake it to the right If you know that you feel fine
Chicas to the front Ha ha go round
I got a better paying job. Pretty much every aspect of my life has since improved.
Frugal challenges, forcing myself to use my bicycle instead of my car where possible, declutter my belongings (why do I even have all this crap I never touched for the last year?!) and trying out weird things in general at least once (like throwing things at the wall and see what sticks).
As far as doin’ it goes, I opened up my mind to trying almost ANYTHING once, twice to make sure I don’t like it. I’ve found I like… almost everything. Hard no: Poo, vomit, farting, genital pain/mutilation.
I'm usually a shut-in due to my studies so to spice things up I go out and chat with strangers and become friends. I never talk to them again though so they just leave. After a few months I go out again and the cycle continues. Keeps me down to earth. Keeps me sane.
Mushrooms.
Like the trip kind or the tasty ones?
Yes
Started playing Sabacc, which brought me many local friends.
Factorio has made me a unkempt recluse surrounded by drawings and diagrams that ive drawn that not even I can make sense of.
Oh I feel things but satisfactory instead
Never heard of it but sounds cool! Maybe I should try it!
Highly recommend if you've got people in the area. It's a great community.
Sabacc? Starwars Sabacc? With interference fields etc?
As a computer game?
Or a real physical card game
Real physical card game! Check out the Outer Rim Sabacc League for global cantinas.
Sweet! I only learned about real-world Sabacc after how much enjoyment I got out of the Kessel Sabacc minigame in Outlaws. Looks like there are a few cantina tables in my area, might check them out.
