alternatively, i can pull it out, lick my fingers, and keep eating

and then i have no peanut butter

[scriver]

Alternatively you could leave it in and keep eating the peanut butter, and then you'd still have a cracker.

[Tack]

Use the next cracker to fish out the first cracker.

[TempAcc]

Perform standard cracker removal procedure n.1: JUST EAT IT WITH THE PEANUT BUTTER YOU MONGREL

[Rolan7]

Contamination protocols are clear:  Get a spoon and consume the entire jar ASAP.
It's okay to leave the glass if you must

[birdy51]

Discard the jar immediately through the nearest window. It has already been infected.

Speaking of multiple-choice questions, this year those have been fully removed from Russia's official state exams, with the sole exception of English. And I say good riddance!

[Dunamisdeos]

Who cares about Russia we have a peanut butter crisis I recommend hiring a professional to extricate the cracker from the jar.

It's funny, but it's true. The score on the first exam in the biochemistry I class biochem majors at my university take their 3rd undergrad year is pretty often among the lowest of everyone's whole time in school, since that's the first year that they actually start on biochem instead of the general and organic chemistry that most science people need. The classes are small enough in those for the professor and their TA(s) to grade a fully written exam instead of mostly multiple choice with a couple of math problems at the back, and people underestimate the amount of work they need to put in that first time.

You know what...

I REALLY hate No Chance Romances in fiction pretty much period (unless that is kind of the point)...

It is just a waste of time to focus on the romance between two characters that you KNOW won't ever develop or even really go anywhere.

"Ohh man... the main characters are a male female team... and they both have outside love interests... I totally believe they will end up with someone other then the other main character..."

Then again I dislike the "obligatory male female team romance"... Main characters are male and female? They are going to end up together... guaranteed.

I still remember the show where they hated it just as much as I did SOOO much that at one point the female lead is tortured for having an "obvious romance with the male lead" when she didn't... But the villains couldn't get it through their heads that men and women can just be friends OR that spending time together doesn't necessarily mean romance.

[Dunamisdeos]

So you just hate everything then.

[Neonivek]

So you just hate everything then.

Yes... my dislike of forced romance translates into an intense loathing of everything. How did you know?

But no... I just hate it when shows act like something is more significant then it actually is... and continue to fail to do anything with it anyway.

As well I hate it when shows just sort of hit the default button, when it is always the default button.

Then again I dislike the "obligatory male female team romance"... Main characters are male and female? They are going to end up together... guaranteed.

Heh yeah, I love when this is averted.  Particularly if there were strong signals that they'd get together - and then a new character arrives or becomes prominent who is better for one of them.

Of course it usually leads to a triangle for a while, which is tired but fun.  And it can go either way, maybe.  Mainly I enjoy the uncertainty.

Fakedit:  Neo doesn't hate triggering discussions

I will give credit to Ben10 (ben is 10 years old for context)

In that when his sister got super powers his response wasn't the typical "Ohh no! someone is special other than me!" but rather "I am happy to have someone who can have my back" which shows he actually experiences... What he experiences.

Ultimately I guess is that I want fiction to better reflect itself and be honest with its material.
