I read the first 50 pages of Twilight once upon a time and while I found the prose grating and awfully dry actually, it was absolutely nothing in badness compared to Ready Player One. There's no amount of dunking on RPO that would make Twilight's treatment proportional.

But it's only human to desire "grandpa cereal" badly, can you blame them?? And if you leave a trail of grandpa cereal, you can set up an elaborate trap to catch them and also protects more expensive food stuff.

Look up shaping. Here's a simple video, but as its been studied by psychologists there tons of information about shaping.
You could try to teach her to swallow on cue if a pill is present, but I have no idea how'd you make safe practice pills.

I think it's pretty apparent given that some of the most enthusiastic about those jokes are white and/or straight themselves. I feel like it can function as a form of deflection.

This list of SNES extra chips on Wikipedia makes no mention of any sound chips on cartridges, but apparently some Famicom cartidges had ones.
I had a Sega Megadrive growing up, but I think the stock SNES sound chip was better than what the Sega had. I have a vague memory too that some SNES games had a sound chip on their cartridges, but the purpose of which was to enable the abuse of the original sound chip for non-audio processing.
I think in the end it might be that the Sega soundchip was more limited that what SNES had and thus the good songs had to be more carefully written and arranged to fit the limitations. I think one reason why Sonic 1 OST is so good it was made by a bassist as I think it's the bass that is most lacking on Sega games. But bassists tend to be quite sensitive to tone so I'm sure that helped.
Example: compare the hospital theme of EarthBound to the Star Light Zone theme, which seems to be Genesis chip bass at its most mellow and even then the bass line consists of pretty detached notes, I think in order to work around limitations. It works here because the music demands it, but I think SNES is the general winner here as it could support a bass and drum propelled track like the above.

A little mustard goes really well in a vinaigrette and it helps to emulsify it as well - in other words, helps to keep oil and water together.

I'm pretty sure that there is a somewhere a method to train your cat to eat pills. Like at first, click with your clicker and if the cat comes nearer, feed them a treat. Do that for sometime, then train them to open their mouth etc. etc.
There's a lot of tutorials on dogs about stuff like this.

This is such a good post toasthaste! Applause to my comoderator, folks!
Especially what you said about Adventure Time. It's pretty weird in a way that it got so much mainstream media and critical attention back in, like, season four as it has come such a long way since then. I wonder where the fandom went too - honestly that might be about some changes in media habits, AT isn't on Netflix. The viewership per episode is under a million nowadays, down from about 3M at top.

The fandom backlash is way older than Gem Harvest, like House Guest and Keep Beach City Weird in Oct. 2014, which were both before Jailbreak (with its Garnet vs. Jasper fight) that really helped the fandom grow. Say Uncle, Bismuth, Chille Tid, some Sadie and Lars episode I've forgotten the name of and some shipping dispute between Amethyst-Peridot-Lapis that really made some fans pissed off and Alone at Sea too.
I think the scheduling is what is actually annoying lots of fans more than anything else. There was a dip in production quality too at some point which some eagle eyed fans apparently think was down to some specific production studio in Korea since it was noticeable only in some episodes.
I actually think that the growth of /r/StevenUniverse has something to do with fandom behavior. It's probably no secret that Tumblr and Reddit fandoms of the show are symbiotic with each other, it brings a large audience for Tumblr generated content and the communities overlap. Reddit holds grudges forever on a lot of topics; on a many of superficial ones they've been relentless to the degree that people like me who care less for the complaints must have unsubscribed.

Mustard is a bit of a passion food, for or against. It's literally the only emulsifier I know of that people readily recognize as food stuff - soy lecithin works well too, I suppose, but who has a taste for that stuff?
