That never made sense to me. X is the shape of two people hugging and O is the shape of pursed lips.

You'll also be able to get those side quests done much faster after you get your horse.

Seconding Oxenfree. It's one of the few multi-choice/multi-ending games where I was completely content with the ending I got, and didn't feel like the game ever lied to me or ripped me off for choosing the "wrong" thing. I had stayed away from it for so long because I wasn't ready to deal with choice anxiety that I get in a lot of games of that type, but for whatever reason, the game never made me feel like that.

In Breath of the Wild, I never learned how to cook in the starting area. I completely bypassed the intended path up to the cold area and somehow climbed up the other side, and then just froze my ass off while eating a bunch of apples. I made it out of the starting area and I think I beat two of the divine beasts before I finally looked up how to cook. I knew the game had cooking, but I thought there would be some kind of cooking menu when you walk up to a cooking pot, I didn't realize you had to just hold items and then drop them in.

I've heard that putting a bell and a bright, reflective collar on a cat can prevent them from hunting wildlife.
Does anyone know how true this is, or if doing so would negate some of the risks of having an outdoor cat?

I think my favorite thing I saw was the Opera GX Twitter account changed their pfp to two men kissing in their logo. On one hand it was just a silly meme, but it also made me think how the rainbow logos have become just a standard thing that no one really cares about after so many years. The rainbow has very little to do with what homosexuality actually is, it's just a flag. I get that the flag holds a lot of meaning, but I'd love it if this caught on and eventually all the logos during pride month featured same-sex couples kissing or hugging or getting married, actual representations of gay people rather than just the rainbow.

I happen to be suffering from a sore throat right now from horrible allergies, so I'll have to remember to try this as soon as I get home.

As far as other pickled things, I ironically hate pickled cucumbers, but I love pickled eggs and pickled garlic and have been curious to try some other unconventional pickled foods.

i’ll eat the tails on shrimp.

I thought I was the only one. I've never met anyone else who does this, and everyone thinks I'm a freak when they see me do it.

I'm assuming you've had pickled garlic, then? I just picked up 2 jars of it recently. I have to stop myself from eating too much sometimes. Raw garlic is great for me when I have a bad cold and need to clear out my sinuses.

I could imagine the sweet and salty goes well together. I like when a charcuterie has a nice jam and brie. A cracker or piece of bread with brie, prosciutto, and jam, I could eat so many of those.

Can you explain why you believe that?
