Me just sitting here liking raw onions since a decade before this troll-meme.

Onions are fucking delicious, fight me.

I don't think we'd stand a chance fighting someone who's basically pure testosterone.

Finally, someone else shares the same onion about opinions

Hawaiians soak them in cold water to take out the pungency

I bet they do the same thing with hung over tourists 😉

Have you tried them sliced and salted? I love the crunch combined with the subtle sting. Only problem is your whole body stinks for the day^^

You're the first person other than me I've heard has this problem. I have it with garlic, too. Either is fine when fully cooked, though. I don't even have a sensitive stomach otherwise, I can eat chilis all day every day. Hbu?

Oh man, I used to get heartburn from onions, garlic, tomato, bananas, water. Everything. Now it's mostly just raw onion and sour candy that gets me.

2

That sounds rough! Glad it's better now. I'm perfectly fine with sour stuff too, except on a completely empty stomach. Not quite cooked garlic has made me throw up before though.

every dude who balds early: my dude, out of balance testosterone isn't something you should trying for...

Afaik as long as your primary sex hormone isn't estrogen, you're going to go bald regardless as long as you have the genetics for it.

Huh, how does 'itll happen regardless [of t levels] IF you have the genetics' mean 'itll happen regardless OF genetics'? Am I being thick?

oh that's what you meant!

maybe typing it like "it will happen regardless, if you have the genetics" would avoid the confusion, because otherwise you get people (me) reading it wrong

Lol glad I followed the comment chain till the end. I also read it as meaning "regardless of genetics". Classic blind dispute.

Your hair might become thinner but you wouldn't necessarily go bald. My grandfather had a full head of hair when he passed away at 79. I don't think his primary sex hormone was estrogen.

Fuck it, I'm just gonna start transitioning the second I notice my hairline receding

that's a really bad observation, especially considering it's only caucasian/European that have the highest rates

Don't joke ... my wife's family is Irish Canadian and their grandmother died in 1995 at the age of 102

Every day for her entire life (she grew up on a rural farm for the first 30 years of her life) she ate a whole raw onion every evening after supper.

Rip to your grandma, but your grandpa was the true hero. Laying next to onion Sally his whole life.

That's an even better indicator of health .... grandpa loved his bacon, pork, fried food and smoked a pipe every day .... he died of a massive heart attack at the age of about 50 in the 1950s.

Onion Sally outlived ol' Pork'n'Beans

grandpa loved his bacon, pork

Had he reached 60-70, he would have suffered from gout

Last time I went there I ended up arguing with some guy about whether or not working out 3.5 days a week was possible.

feddit.dk

Well, when you count on your fingers its clear that by working out every other day, you can workout 4 times a week, duh. /s

If you work out every other day for 31 days, that is 16 days a month, 4 days a week! See, it's that simple.

If anyone can find the original thread, I would love to archive it for eternity, as it is hilarious.

Thank you so much. I recommend everyone here read it. It's history.

The term is juxtaposition but I don't know if a Lemmy community exists for it yet

Testosterone spikes are what happens in your body when you fall in love. Therefore testosterone is sometimes referred to as the hormone of love. It is true for both men and women. So how do onions fit into that?

Who doesn't love the smell of raw onions on a first date?

lemmy.world

You shouldn't be going down on people on your first date, but I agree otherwise.

I gotta say I'm just really upset that nobody called me out on my belief that crotches normally smell like onions.

i was a big proponent of the /fit/ memes about drinking semen for gains. which caught on really easily but i still want to take some credit

There was/is a movement regarding butthole and ball tanning. I am suspicious that it also started like this.

I love raw onion, is that why my balls are the size of children's marble and bicep size of grapefruit?

I recommend you start BloominOnions @ federation of your choice (or something, I don’t really know how any of this stuff works)

Ironi, onions are generally the first thing to cook. You don't desperately need onions midway through a meal, you need 5 spice which is 4 years out of date.

I plan to pass these same bottles of oregano and mustard seed onto my grandchildren.

I recently actually ran out of black pepper(!!!) and it messed me up for a solid week or two until I finally remembered to buy more. That should hopefully hold me until at least the second Barron Trump term.

I wonder how many people the "suicide grip for bench press" advocate guy on /fit killed.

It was called reddit juxtaposition or something like that. Not sure if there's an equivalent here.
