Only way to eat bread ends: Turn bread ends soft-side out. Then make grilled cheese.

@MeowMeowKapow 4 жыл бұрын

That is definitely an approved method. But, like, this morning I had one bum end and one regular slice and used them for my egg and cheese Sammie. It’s all bread to me! =>.

I willingly eat the end pieces on a loaf of bread; however, I’m also ridiculously picky about it and am only ok when it’s both end pieces vs an end and an inside piece.

You’re the only other person that has said that they think in pictures other than myself. I mentioned it to a shrink long ago and he said it was due to my dyslexia, and that artists sometimes think. In pictures or images. Any kind of math was very difficult but literature was my best subject. It fuels my imagination to the max. Transposing numbers cut my college time down to weeks instead of years, back in the dark ages of 1968, nobody talked about dyslexia. The only good thing about it is that I have never had the problem of running out of ideas for my artwork though at times I have to figure out how to achieve the image in my head onto the substrate I’m working on. LOL Love your quirky paintings and your flow!😻 🥀🖌Annie in TN

I greatly enjoyed your peanut butter sandwich story! Personally, I could picture it very clearly, and I tend to have a combination of an inner voice and an inner movie going on most of the time. But, my husband has aphantasia, so he has no mental images at all. It's wild to me. What I think is particularly interesting is that he still loves fiction, but he just prefers his more action-heavy rather than description-heavy, because the descriptions are just facts to keep track of for him, not experiences. Also, hello, Bubba! I hope you are having a great day! My cats are having a pretty excellent week, because a mantis has taken up residence on our screen door. Sometimes it wanders around, other times it goes all the way to the ground to eat bugs, and sometimes it naps at the top, but it's always interesting!

@MeowMeowKapow 4 жыл бұрын

Yeah! I heard about aphantasia last year or something and it’s also totally wild to me! Specifically heard about it because I watched a KZfaq video of an animator who has it, and realized that part of the reason they struggled so much to make artwork “from their head” was because there wasn’t anything being generated in their head. They didn’t realize that there IS something being generated in *other* people’s heads, and that’s why they can more easily create new shit on the fly. Totally wild! Bubba’s having a stressful week-the couple of big thunder days were too scary! And then when all the lights were out, our house got infested with ghosts and it was much much MUCH scary. Would rather have the mantis, I’m sure.

@MeowMeowKapow 4 жыл бұрын

Oh, and I agree with the hubs on more action, less description. I forget what characters look like all the time, and just skip it when people take a ton of time describing something, especially if it’s only going to be in one scene. I’d much rather have the story first and setting secondary.

@ariweaver1543 4 жыл бұрын

@@MeowMeowKapow Oh, wow! Such spooks! Definitely not as good as a door mantis. I definitely also like story to be more important than setting, but I can also enjoy a lot more description than my husband can. I think that's one of the reasons that I can enjoy older books more often than he can. Not all of them, definitely, but I can settle in to many of the slower paced books with detailed descriptions which he doesn't enjoy. We have a pretty broadly ranging book collection, both physical and digital, between us! :D

I love your intertwining of story and art - we are all pieced together by our stories and how they overlap with other stories. As for eating the end pieces of a loaf of bread, the butt ends are treasures and fabulously delicious especially from bread just out of the oven. For a truly decadent PB&J, use the butt ends of a loaf and sprinkle the peanut butter with Butterfinger crumbs. I like to add blackberry jam as well.

@KitarraChaosWeaver 4 жыл бұрын

I concur! Crunchy peanut butter all the way! But I prefer either sour cherry jam black currant...or...or...silver shred lime marmalade! I totally see what you mean about having little movies in your head. Since I was young, I have always told myself stories. It's been my way of self soothing, putting myself to sleep, and pushing away unwanted thought. They weren't just stories. They were always cinematic vingettes, where I would see these fantastic worlds! I don't always think like that...because I am extremely verbose, it's my job but every once in a while, a good turn of phrase still detonates in my head in tiny movie scenes. I love how you articulate that concept and apply it to what you filmed. You are an excellent teacher!

I disagree about your sandwich choices(lol) but very much relate with making up my own stories. My brother & I use to make up all sorts of stories. We had a collab project we created for ourselves for a fictional game. I drew the characters and he drew the monsters. I miss those days when creativity came more naturally.

@KitarraChaosWeaver 4 жыл бұрын

@@WateryStar yeah. My best friend and I had a whole universe that we created together. Like you and your brother. When I was younger the stories just overflowed. My muse would not leave me alone. Now I am lucky if she wakes up from her coma every once in a while.

@@KitarraChaosWeaver aw, I hope you find the spark to wake your muse 💜💙 My username is based off of a Sailor Moon like story my best friends and I made up. They ended moving away & I felt weird continuing working on it. I've been toying around with my own passion projects. I'm only recently been able to get back into art/writing. Feels like it's been ages since I've really allowed myself to daydream.

@@WateryStar Totally forgot I actually hadn't finished replying to you got distracted because I have a butterfly of thought instead of a train! I guess I have just been finding other ways of letting our the creative energy. Like I do crafts and origami and I have been trying to teach myself to draw kawaii things. I will appreciate my writing muse when she wakes up! I think I know that feeling you are talking about. It's kinda like waking up from an ensorceled sleep to be surrounded by fairies. I hope you enjoy your renewed passion. Dream wild!

the best way to make a Pb & J... butter both slices of bread with whatever Jam or Jelly you like wedged in between, and myself I love the end of the bread especially toasted it's like a mini Pb&J pie for breakfast...Mmmmm!

I *still* struggle with planning ahead on my videos. But I think I've gotten better at it over time.

@MeowMeowKapow 4 жыл бұрын

Yeah, sometimes I kick myself for forgetting this or that. I’m sure I’ll still leave something out despite relatively planning ahead-ish. ESPECIALLY because the power went out in the middle of me recording, tooooootally throwing off my groove. Left the cap off my pen by accident in the chaos! Oy. But still. Adapting is all the rage these days.

When I was younger, end pieces of the breadloaf absolutely disgusted me! I felt that they were just too thick and it was basically eating one large crust. (it essentially is) however, I changed my mind one day when I realised that it being so thick and heavy gave me a reason to load it with more peanut butter and filling! So now I'm a huge fan of the end pieces, if only so I can eat more peanut butter 😂 Also, take your time! More time for me to marathon your other videos 😉

@spacepisces9287 4 жыл бұрын

When I was in primary school the school had toast. Everyone loved to get the end piece and if you could you were considered lucky. Have you heard ‘eat your bread crusts, it will make your hair curly’ or is that just a saying where I live?

=O.O= I have never heard it, but I do have curly hair! Must be from all the bum bread I’ve eaten. =>.
