Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
I understand that in Europe they have toothpaste with a different flavor, since some Europeans will complain that American root beer tastes like toothpaste. To be specific, one Hungarian mathematician made that complaint, so maybe that's only Hungarian toothpaste.

The brightness settings on the sun when I really just want to take a nap and sleep off a headache are too damn high.

Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
I'm not going to lie, i don't actually use mouthwash (because it's nothing but mint.) and i have no idea what flavors they have (because its all mint). i just wanted to throw in one random non-mint flavor to show that the variety is extremely low. For all i know, there is no mouthwash that isn't mint flavoured. the orange flavor thing was completely made up on my end, sorry.

Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
Listeria used to make a Citrus Splash mouthwash that was orange-flavored (and was marketed as being used with the toothpaste i mentioned above) but no longer. I suspect that the dcing of one led to the other.
There's a few brands i use that do have citrus and other fruit flavors but i dont like them as much. Listen also came out eith a lime and coconut mouthwash recently and while i have no idea what it tastes like (beyond "horrible"), i can attest it does not taste like lime and coconut.
I dislike coconut to start with but its better than the other flavors. At least, if it actually tastes like coconut. That doesnt.Cuthalion's art is the prettiest art of all the art. Like my avatar.

Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
For the mouthwashes I suspect it's because mint is one of the few things that sort of tastes ok combined with the alcohol and other flavor components of most mouthwashes. Toothpastes.. you can get boutique toothpastes with other flavors, but most of the time you have to special order those or possibly go shop at more upscale/specialty market stores. Sometimes you can find like mint-vanilla from the big brands which will at least have a much milder mint. I'm guessing there's a lot of focus marketing there where they have determined that customers associate the taste/smell of mint with 'clean' and they think other flavors of toothpaste 'don't work' as well.

Pine is associated with freshness, but I think it probably tastes worse than mint.

See if you can find cinnamon. That's the only mint-alternative I've seen in mouthwash.

Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
A quick Google suggests you should be able to find several alternative flavours for toothpaste. Looking at my local online shop for such things, I can see watermelon, raspberry, banana, blackcurrant, blueberry, bubblegum and vanilla, mostly (apparently) aimed at kids. Also one brand proudly "made with tea tree oil", which doesn't actually say anything about flavouring but I'd like to try it.

if i ever get the power to wipe out one species from the face of the earth, then forget mosquitoes (Which apparently are not spelled at all like they are pronounced), I'm getting rid of Mint.

Wait...
It's pronounced as if it means "of or related to a corona" and spelled like it means "of or related to a colon" but in fact it's neither of those things... right?

Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
...So... I can only speak for AMerican stuff, but I'm pretty sure that in the Army, the Marine Corps, and the Air Force there are in fact about four or five different kinds of generals all ranked above a colonel, depending on whether or not w're in a position where someone has to be acting with a rank equal to or greater than the highest rank in an allied nations military department.
Like I'm looking it up right now but in America, colonel seems to be consistantly right in the middle when it comes to officers.I also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

Re: Completely Inconsequential Hot-Takes 2: People Take Too Long to Post New Threads
I would interpret it as "Colonels are way more important than generals". Which from the regular soldier's POV, is probably about right.
A general isn't likely to know your name or face. The colonel of your regiment probably does know you personally to some extent, and very likely has an opinion about you."None of us likes to be hated, none of us likes to be shunned.

From what little I've personally seen the British The Office is better than the American The Office but that's a pretty low bar.
