My Least Favourite Kitchen Applience
not that i spend all my time complaining about homeware, really, but as an adult i suppose im legally obligated to have opinions on these things now and have at least one thing a week make me want to either smash in into smithereens on the pavement from the balcony or commit murder. and the winner for most hated rage inducing appliance really has to go to these 'hot water dispenser' things they have in the student residence hall kitchens here instead of a normal proper kettle, despite these horrible things being more expensive, less convienent and a lot harder to use.

not only can you not pick it up to refill under they tap so you have to find something else to carry the water, but instead of an easy switch you flip on the boil the water and automatically goes off to tell you its done, its got these ridiculous load of different buttons and sometimes pressing the right one doesnt even do anything and it just sits there flashing and not boiling the water. and even if it does decide to work, it doesnt actually bother telling youu when its done so you constantly have to check. its lterally bloody impossible to get to work sometimes no matter how many times you plug it off and on (dont get me started on the power plugs here, i dont know how theyre even legal). its literally completely fucking baffling why they didnt just save a bit of money and buy normal kettles

It's a hyper realistic trout the size of her body but it's what she sniffed the most so. That's what we got.

please do look it up if you dont know the date bc there may be at least an approximate answer and otherwise the last option will completely dominate and this poll will be boring.
and dont be like 'but i cant sing'... just answer the earliest tune you know well enough that you COULD sing it

okay bear with me here but i went to illinois last week and one part of the experience has stuck with me
this is, of course, ignoring things like current weather, time of day, your current ability to physically go outside, etc…. answer based on what you consider would be your optimal mountain viewing conditions on a day to day basis 👍

buying four things that are about sixteen dollars adds up to over sixty dollars. that doesn't make any sense they are each sixteen dollars (small price) and it is only four (small amount) they should not make over sixty dollars (big cost) this is why the economy is in shambles

i never usually allow news apps to give me notifications but i allowed nhk to cause i couldnt figure out how to find out about weather warnigns so i knew when uni is cancelled but it was odd to wake up to a notification that a missile 'might' have been launched at japan (and then i found no mention of it on my usual international news app)
