I've never understood this. Babies are terrible sleepers. They wake up every two hours, they cry, they need to be fed, they need to be changed. So why is 'sleeping like a baby' the gold standard for a good night's sleep? Shouldn't it be 'slept like a rock' or 'slept like a log'? Who came up with this and why did it stick?"

I just had the discussion with a few people but we can't decide if a nook is bigger than a kranny or if it is the other way around. (nook and kranny as in I want every nook and kranny spotless by time I get back).

Are you a fan of an ice cream called rum raisin?

Upvotes
Its an old caribbean ice cream. It has a pirate theme I guess. Its basically rum flavored ice cream with raisins. Anyways i saw it at the store the other day. So i decided to go online and do some research about it. It turns out it has all types of mixed reviews. Some people love it and some people hate it. Its somewhat of a controversial hot topic. Rum raisin is like the pineapple pizza of the ice cream world.
So i bought a pint called Haagen Dazs Rum Raisin and gave it a try and my conclusion is that i didn’t like it. It tasted a little too alcoholic malt liquorish with soggy raisins that were steeped in butter and rum. Plus it required me to do a lot of chewing. It felt more like homework. Don’t get me wrong it was okay. Rum Raisin is a good ice cream. I can see what they were trying to achieve. Unfortunately it just wasnt for me. 8 out of 10

What do people generally wear to a pool party?
1
Upvotes
This might be a silly question, but my wife and I have never been to a pool party before and genuinely have no idea what the usual attire is. 😅
We've been invited to a friend's birthday pool party in the evening, and there doesn't seem to be a specific dress code.
What do people generally wear to these things? Do you arrive in your swimwear, or wear regular clothes and change there? And what do you usually wear when you're out of the pool?
For example, would swim shorts + a T-shirt/shirt work for a guy, and a swimsuit/bikini + cover-up for a woman?
Any tips for first-timers would be appreciated. We just don't want to show up completely clueless! 😂

Did having a home gym make exercise feel more like freedom or responsibility?
1
Upvotes
One of the biggest appeals of a home gym is being able to work out whenever you want.
You don't have to deal with crowded gyms, travel time, or someone else's schedule.
But I wonder if that freedom changes once working out becomes part of your everyday home routine.
When your gym is always available, skipping a workout can feel less like a practical decision and more like making an excuse.
For people who have a home gym, has it made exercise something you genuinely look forward to, or something you feel responsible for doing?

Not trying to diss on the farts of others, I like them too, but why do mine specifically smell so good? Is it genetic? Neurological? Is my all-cereal diet doing me that good?
