    I’m a railroad and siren enthusiast. Many people look down on the hobbies as “childish”, although there are tons of adults who participate. I still feel uneasy telling people though, because I fear how they’ll react.

          I keep thinking about thos and forgetting to comment back. What are the small sirens used for? I don’t know anything about this niche of objects and am curious

            Small sirens are usually used on vehicles such as fire engines, as they are audible at a longer distance than electronic vehicle sirens. Small sirens are also often used in industrial sites, where they are used as general indoor emergency sirens and lunch whistles. They are also often used by rural volunteer fire departments as fire sirens to summon firefighters to the station during a fire call. They’re perfectly suited for short range use.

    Chef Boyardee and Heinz Tinned Spaghetti.

    If I’m doing a grocery shop alone, I can’t be trusted not to buy some. Sometimes I bring some home. Sometimes it doesn’t make it.

    Oh yeah, I like it cold too. I know I’m a monster.

    Very rarely I crave some disgusting Kraft Mac & Cheese and a can of Dr Pepper. The former being not easy to get in Germany.

      No shame in that, it’s literally like getting drunk on lemonade. Shit was delicious.

      Not like I’ve drank any in like 15 years, but I have some fond memories of younger me drinking this crap lol

        That was probably the only drink that gave me a really bad hangover headache when I was a teenager. I was pretty much invincible back then, and maybe would get a slightly upset stomach, but they would crush my head in a vice >.<

          Understandable. It may have to do with the sugar content? Or sulfites, like wine? Dunno, honestly. Still made me drink like an idiot without realizing.
