I have found no reason to distrust the rice.
the "she said she was tired, then showed up with fried rice" story has been copied so many times that i now trust no one, not even rice

Some people are so nice that they un-knowingly assembled amazing lists of creators to follow on X!
Check the "lists your on" icon and check out the awesome people you can connect with.
As you can see, someone added me to a list titled "Fuckin' idiots"
I followed so many members on this list, awesome accounts.
I learned this morning that I will never eat eggs at a hotel.
The scrambled eggs at a hotel breakfast are 19% water, and they're dyed.
A lot of hotels and cafeterias pour them from a carton of Papetti's Breakfast Blend. The spec sheet reads whole eggs, 19% water, then under 2% of salt, xanthan gum, citric acid, annatto color and natural butter flavor. Papetti's is part of Michael Foods, one of the biggest egg processors in the country.
Every ingredient has a job on a steam table. Xanthan gum holds the added water in the egg so it doesn't weep into the pan. Citric acid keeps the eggs from turning gray or green under a heat lamp. Annatto puts back the yolk color the water washed out. The butter flavor is there because nobody is going to add butter. The carton keeps for 98 days in the cooler.
The plain version from the same company is whole eggs, whey, skim milk, xanthan and citric acid, with almost no added water and half the sodium.
A woman in my building told me her refrigerator was making a funny noise. I said I would love to take a look.
She thanked me three times and took me upstairs. I believe she thought I could fix it.
I stood in her kitchen for a full minute while it rattled.
It was not funny.
I told her I could not help. I do not think her description was accurate.

I go to the same bar every Saturday to watch people watch college football.
Today a man walked up to me at the door, smiling. He said, "You're Carol's friend, aren't you? We met at her birthday dinner."
I have never met Carol. But he looked so happy that I did not want to correct him.
I said yes.
He bought me a beer. As I took it, he looked past me and said, "Look who just walked in. It's Carol!"
I told him I would be right back. This was not accurate.
I sat at an empty table in the corner and watched him tell Carol something and point at me. Carol said something short. His smile left.
They both stared at me.
I finished the beer quickly. It had been paid for.
I will watch the games somewhere else.
I experienced this the first time I bought honey roasted peanuts from a street vendor. I could only focus on their deliciousness and nothing else. I walked into a street lamp.

At 20 I thought you needed a LOT of money to start investing.
Turns out you mostly needed TIME.
What's one money belief you had at 20 that aged badly?
