For much of my early life, a popcorn ceiling was the butt of easy jokes. like vegans, comic sans, people who hate the word “moist”, and Disney adults, it became such a no-brainer crowd pleaser punch line that there’s no room to seriously consider it’s positive attributes. But I kinda like a popcorn ceiling. You can get lost in it, imagining small mountain ranges, considering the shapes of its shadows like you’re watching clouds pass by. I have fond memories of standing on my parents bed as a youth, reaching up and feeling the popcorn ceiling in their room just bc it looked fun to touch. That being said I wouldn’t put any in my own place, it is kinda dingy

If you, like me, take popcorn very seriously, you simply must try Anson Mills’ popcorn. It is the first popcorn I’ve tasted that truly tastes like-- get this-- corn! It’s subtly sweet and toasty and nuanced in ways that I’ve never tasted from the popped stuff. Rancho Gordo popcorn is also tasty and a very dramatic color, but Anson Mills is on another level. As for popping, you can’t go wrong with the absolute game changer that is a Whirley Pop. Despite its goofy name and the annoying amount of cupboard space it occupies, it makes perfect popcorn. Every. Single. Time. No burnt pieces, no kernel left unpopped. And when they’re the best kernels you won’t want to waste any. From there, I adorn mine with a copious amount of salt, olive oil, and nutritional yeast or fresh parm. If it’s the fake butter you’re craving, may I suggest Butter Buds™? They’re little butter-flavored granules I first had in grade school popcorn parties, and have loved for their unabashed artificiality ever since.

Just sat down to enjoy one of my lifelong food hyperfixations, freshly popped popcorn and decided to post about how much I love it.
It never gets old, it’s crunchy, buttery, salty, and just full of deliciousness. Can be eaten sweet or salty, for breakfast, lunch or dinner (at least to me) and is so quick and easy to make, I love popcorn.
There is no snack greater than popcorn, especially movie theater popcorn but that’s a different post.

It’s like cereal but dry and salty. If cereal can be a meal, popcorn can be a meal.

Ok stay with me here. Too much public filming. This is going to discourage good weird public activity. We need people being weird in public. Odd dancing, carrying around insane items, freaked out fits, etc. Instead of a quick vid to show your friends, or, god forbid, *get internet clout*, people should be sketching the scene and describing it in colorful language. Now you have to take accountability for your opinion on the matter, your draftsmanship and writing gets better, and the public freaks have plausible deniability in the job interview. This goes for drunk man on the street tik tok videos as well. Put on a newsboy cap and start jotting. There should be exceptions like intentional performances or heinous crimes of course. I’m open to other exceptions I just can’t think of any rn. This will never be a reality but i can try
