Tbh, Kagus, I ghost my friends for weeks at a time. If a relationship is just starting out, a week of no contact might be normal. Just my brain thoughts.

No contact is fine. Ghosting is specifically not answering someone else's attempts to make contact, as is what happened when she vanished mid-conversation and then completely disregarded the "Hey" I sent a couple days later.

And getting stood up on a pre-agreed date, with zero explanation or apology for several days, is also pretty fucking uncool. Especially when the extremely-belated apology you do get amounts to "oopsie".
Agreed. Sorry if I bother, wasn't aware of the full context.

I find them all the time too. You aren't alone. People are just generally awful.

So, I learned that in Japan, Colonel Sanders is an official vengeful spirit capable of inflicting curses.

This makes me laugh. If the colonel can curse people, why hasn't he cursed the current corporate leadership of KFC for being fucking horrible, and letting the quality of the product slide so much? In life, the guy was a fucking stickler for that shit.

I keep getting reccommended random ass reaction videos by YT on a daily basis. Not sure why or how it decided that nonsense like a history teacher reacting to sabaton or a vocal coach reacting to random metal songs would interest me but here we are. It keeps coming up with uninteresting bullshit and I keep scrolling right past it.

That's because you watched something in the past.

I hear how bad KFC has become, and I think it's probably a bit better out here in Australia. KFC came out here 40 years ago when it was still pretty good, so local expectations are higher, and it's generally just as good recently when I've been there as it ever was. Maybe the type of cost-cutting etc you're talking about is in fact specific to the American operations, and overseas operations which predate that have just continued on doing the same as they always have, i.e. it's better.

Also note, that you guys actually eat Taco Bell, however after a short initial level of interest, that stuff failed in pretty much every other country. Australians will eat just about anything, but not Taco Bell apparently.

Australia, renowned for its world-famous cuisine such as

I haven't had KFC for a while, but it turns out that beans and rice wrapped in tortillas is pretty hard to screw up.  I wonder if the people who complain about Taco Bell aren't used to heavy bean diets.  They do go heavy on the sour cream though.

We complain, because it is NOT real mexican food.

Compare-- Taco bell "tacos", with REAL tacos.

ACTUAL tacos:

I've never understood the shells... They're just as big in fake Mexican food here in Norway as they are in fake Mexican food in the states.

Completely useless food article.

Just 'cause you don't like hard shell tacos doesn't mean they ain't real tacos.

Mind you, I much prefer a good ol' burrito anyhow.
