Himeaimichu

It was watchable for a few hours after the stream was done. I guess all twitcasts are like that? The whole platform honestly kinda confuses me lol

I see! So far I've only seen either recorded lives or non-recorded ones that end right away... guess there's also a third type then :') yeah non-recorded or deleted twitcasts are the bane of my existence lol

I ONLY GOT TO WATCH HALF OF IT AND IM SALTY

Thank you~!

I mean, Chick-fIl-A chicken sandwiches are some good shit, and while they're a national brand, they're particularly concentrated in the Southeastern US. While brining their chicken in pickle juice and pressure frying create their chicken's unique flavor, they claim that they invented the actual "chicken sandwich" in the 1940s. It's an unsubstantiated claim, and hot chicken between two slices of bread certainly existed long before them.

As someone from the Southeast, Chick-fil-A is leagues beyond most of the fast-food options in the region when it comes to service and food quality. They invest a lot in integrating with their surrounding communities and are fast-food havens for the upper-middle class (who can justify the price hike relative to McD or BK for quality.) When I was part of my youth town-council several years ago, we worked exclusively with them for community events.

On the other side, Popeyes has been perceived a lot differently compared to Chick-fil-A, with deep-southern influence and a lower-class demographic (relative to CfA, McD is the most affordable tmk.) While their new sandwich comes at a premium relative to other items on their menu, having something on-par with CfA's "pride and joy" has stirred a lot of interest. It contests with CfA's cushy spot as "America's Restaurant".

There's, oddly enough, some "political" nuance to this related to CfA that I'm clearly dodging b/c forum rules. If you Google it, you'll find a ton of stuff.

As for my opinion, CfA's quality is pretty much the same nationwide, and they have pretty high ff standards (for both sanitation and food.) I usually seek them out if I'm on-the-road while traveling. That consistency is attractive to me, but local cuisines/"hole-in-the-walls" are always my first choice if I'm familiar with the area.

I've had Popeyes only a few times b/c they're not as common where I'm at, but they're pretty damn good as well.

i thought i'd be able to bring out that one tweet. because above poster beat me to it and with a much better explanation than i would have offered simply from observation, so i'm going to say it anyways.

everyone's talking about that popeye's chicken sandwich but yall never look into your pop's eyes and tell him you love him

... And fun L O L

I mean shit I'd do the same if I was him, I love money 

Imagine being SO thirsty (it applies to both sides).

I remember the shitty notepad tutorials with Paralyzer playing in the background 

I know right? I remember the various "youtube national anthems" made by 009 Sound System that everyone hated, but I liked lol

Yuuga covered himself enough, so

Ah I see.

Yeah, it’s like they think “x ruins metal” but when you think about it, VK is pretty niche in terms of like popularity. Most metal fans who act like this probably are pretty close minded

I mean, I think men look good with makeup lol.

It’s funny when people say that when in reality VK was partially inspired by 80s hair metal. 

I hate metal elitists sometimes. Hell, I hate being part of the metal community to begin with

My partner is involved with the prog metal community, and I gotta say, they're surprisingly pretty open minded to Vkei. Especially compared to the boomers/wannabe boomers. I'd say try out the prog community, but they'd bombard you with technical musical terms that most orchestra players haven't even heard lol. The Djent community is also open minded to Vkei, as I've noticed there is a lot who are finding out about Deviloof and Nokubura, and are liking it. There is also considerable overlap between prog fans and Djent fans lol. 

I think the main difference is that prog and Djent fans try out new music and are in general open minded, while metal boomers still listen to the same stuff they were as a child. 

Oh no the prog community is fantastic, especially when it comes to Diru. 

But yeah, metal boomers are the fucking worst. If your gonna complain about how metal sucks nowadays, then your probably a miserable boring person lol

Oh, he's saying l - o - v -e

The only thing worse than regular hippies are new age hippies.

Had to revisit this status b/c Adam Neely did a video on tuning to the different A432 Hz "chakra" frequencies. Though considering that the video was posted on the same day, your status might've been inspired from this (?)

I think there's benefits in using A432, but using it in such a haphazard snake-oil way is ridiculous. Ends up sounding ridiculous too, haha.

Oh yeah, that's another rabbit hole lol. I think A432 could be good if, say, you're a singer and its more in your range. But when it comes to the actual temperament, unless you're an experimental musician, the whole push to switch to something other than equal temperament honestly makes little sense in the scale of western music. Although alternate tuning systems are really fascinating. 

she’s back 

I'm glad i was at work when this happened or i would've lost my shit

As of 0:27 GMT plus one it has fucked up again

Nice! I'm using it to learn Madarin, although I'm hitting a wall with the difficulty and have kind of switched over to another app that has a better learning speed.

I was learning Japanese a while back but I haven't been on it in ages and that owl is probably pissed at me. Anyways, good luck to you, @Peace Heavy mk II! What app are you using now?

HelloChinese. It has a lot of advantages that Duo currently does not, namely:

-in depth grammar explanations that reflect the context of the sentence (sometimes Duo's tooltip hints don't actually apply to the sentence at hand, so you're left to guess and get it wrong so you "learn from your mistakes." Normally, that's fine, but the app gives you a health bar that they then charge you to refill. tl;dr : you can only make so many mistakes before they try to charge you to try again)

-character lessons

-audio doesn't sound like Siri being put through a cheese grater

-practice games (spelling, word recognition, listening comprehension, etc)

-listening portions are people they found outside and asked them to record a sentence. There's something that never gets old about seeing some girl in the park standing there and saying "....celery..." with a confused look on her face, all for my betterment.

-They introduce content in chunks. I'm finding Duo throws a ton of unexplained grammar and vocabulary at you and it's up to you to figure out how to piece it together. For earlier levels, that's fine. But I'm into the late 30's - early 40's group of lessons and it's getting too difficult to parse through everything and remember it.

It's on one of Gokiburi's live distributed singles. That YT account is their guitarist's, and he posted a couple of demos that later became DK songs (namely, guitar and bass-focused instrumental versions of "Mugen Loop"). 

Ah, thanks!
