No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

The Marvin Show is your poor man's cooking show. Hosted by one time Big Brother participant Marvin Latimer. It's hard to put to words or describe the show so I just linked a memorable episode. This was on broadcast TV at some point. Green screen doorway and all.

Another poor man's cooking show was Masaokis. He had a poor grasp on food in general and his genre is more "cooking with hoarders" with a heavy splash of harebrained philosophy. One video is about hot dogs and peaches. I haven't watched the video in a long time but I can still remember the sound he made after tasting the concoction of hot dogs blended in peach juice. He tried to cook a steak on the rim of his toilet by burning paper. He thought the shell of an egg was the egg whites. He made a smoothie with whole moldy peaches and unpeeled oranges and who knows what else.

I believe his whole mythology was that he filmed in an apartment he would go to when he was on a bender. I think I remember seeing a much ~~nicer~~ less trashed apartment in one video. It has been a long time but I remember seeing a ton of books on a shelf with all their spines placed inward. The conditions he cooked in are not for the faint of heart. I can think of at least 2 fires starting from all the shit on his stove.

Masaokis was insane! I found him when looking for ways to grill a steak without a grill. The surprising part was that setting a steak on a toilet bowl rim was part of the process.
