It definitely was not a waste of time! Grab a cheap fountain pen and give yourself a new hobby :)

It is true, but it also goes a little deeper than that. In the 1980s, Amy Yip, a Hong-Kong sexy actress, was extremely popular in Taiwan along with her nickname "波霸" (boba, or "the biggest balls" in Cantonese). Around the same time, people started to put tapioca pearls in drinks, and called the bigger tapioca pearls "boba."

In recent years, people do consider it's improper to use such a term and has been slowly moving to more SFW words as "大/小珍珠" (big/small pearls) in Taiwan, but "boba" has stuck too deep in the English speaking world.

Can't blame Jered. It's summer and I'm basically thinking of boba 24/7.

I can't. I literally gave up and uninstalled Morrowind because I couldn't find my way out of Vivec. ;-;

Same. I will not quit Reddit right away... yet, but I will only browse the site on my PC. There's no way I will use their app.

Eating fried chicken sandwich for breakfast is completely normal and an awesome way to start a day.

Top ten BL drama plots that no one asked for.

Exactly. I was planning to just migrate to their official app after July 1. I mean yes the app may be an ad filled shitty experience but such can be said as well for Facebook and Instagram. Companies need money and I am perfectly fine with that.

It's Huffman's AMA that made me actively seeking Reddit alternatives. It was that bad.

1. Involving microblogs is very interesting and I eager to see how it opens up more discussions after Kbin grows bigger.
2. Solarized light theme looks very nice!
