I don't appreciate your ruse.

Gotye sampled it to begin with, so he couldn't sue. He couldn't even make money off the original song for that reason, but he seems pretty chill about stuff like that.

Based on other comments, it sounds like Doechii wasn't trying to release Anxiety as its own song and just made it for fun, and then her fans kept requesting she record a real version of it.

So the story is that some people's hobby is just to hate things.

But that's not how averages work. We'd really be imagining the median person.

About one third of Americans are bringing the average stupidity way, way down.

So half waffle, half pancake?

I bet I could make that.

Respect, but the real deal is the only syrup in my house.

My six-year-old daughter tried pancakes at a restaurant the other day where they only had Smucker's corn syrup, and she hated it. She knows the taste of real maple. I couldn't be prouder.

I figured it out because I fucking love maple syrup.

[–] moakley@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Wouldn't work. I need butter, so unless I'm dipping in syrup and liquid butter...

Never mind, that would totally work.

Pancakes. Waffles just don't achieve the same thing. Crispiness is great, but they don't absorb the butter as well.

It lets the syrup soak into the middle.

[–] moakley@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (2 children)

The waffle doesn't have enough syrup.

The pancakes have almost enough, maybe, depending on if there's any in the middle of the stack.

Real maple syrup is a reason to get up in the morning.

Whoever downvoted you must not have ever had real maple syrup.

I think it should serve the story it's in. There are good stories to be told about teenage Peter Parker. I liked the new Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man cartoon, and him being a teenager really works there.

With that said, I've seen a lot of that version. For new stories I'd be a lot more interested in stories following an older Peter.
