  • Post nut clarity makes you want to talk I guess, here’s the comment you ignored. Thankfully, you demonstrated my point about these lists and their readers’ self esteem:

    Except these lists don’t uplift men.

    If you’re a man and you do X, then X is a thing real men do.

    Comparing what you do, as a man, to what other men do to check if “you’re a real man” is an inherently insecure thing to do.

    These kinds of lists seek to destroy men’s self esteem. “You don’t do Y? Then you’re not a real man” is not helping anyone. It is a good way of finding men with low self esteem, or creating men with low self esteem so you can sell them things though.





  • To any men reading after this:

    You see what these lists do to people? They destroy your self esteem to the point that you double reply to strangers on the internet that don’t give you the attention you crave.

    To Wigglehard: Please stop, you’re embarrassing yourself.

    I said what needed saying, you told me to go my way and let you go yours. I was happy to leave it there, thanks for proving my point though.

  • Not op but have used an IP to cook pasta. I could absolutely see the appeal.

    Ultimately I mostly use the stove top but that’s for 2 main reasons:

    1 Being UK based, I have electric kettles and enough power in the sockets to drive them. Combined with a gas stove that means quick meals are quicker.

    2 The IP will fully cook the pasta and easily overcook it, I prefer pasta underdone if anything.

    Stove top just grants more flexibility for doneness for various thicknesses of pasta at the cost of another pan.

    So if 1&2 don’t apply to you give it a shot.


  • That’s a shame. Their pressure cooker and air frier are pretty good £/performance. I’m usually using one or the other to make a main/side. I even ferment doughs and yogurts in the IP.

    I’ve not found a glass jug comparable to the .5L Pyrex measuring jug. Maybe its a psychological thing, but I’m happy to abuse pyrex in a way I won’t other glass products. The shallow-wide 1L jugs seem to have pouring issues no matter who makes them.
