granny smith owns the apple game

Granny Smith is only good for apple pies and bitter disappointment.

Pink Lady’s treat you right.

This has been my go-to for a few years now (used to be Gala). Pink Ladies are delicious

[devils acrobat]

Don't know if they are available elsewhere but Topaz is the best apple over here in Europe. Fruity, juicy, and sour at the same time while also edible for people with allergies

Edit: added some missing words lol

Right on.

Galas are so hit or miss: there’s been some really good ones, and then some really disappointing ones.

This is unpopular opinions I’m in the right place right? 
SOTY race rules.  Everyone wants it all the footage comes out best time of the year.  At a nigh level skating is competitive all these dudes want it embrace it.

It’s fun. The only problem I have is that it’s ultimately up to Thrasher and they sometimes make choices I disagree with.

Caring about wheel size same as caring about dick size

and speaking of dick size, what’s the deal with everyone being over particular about their shoes being TTS or having to swap out the insoles?  I’ve never met a size 7 that didn’t fit my feet. guess I’m lucky

For real. I’ve never sized up or down in different shoes. Always wore the same size and it’s never given me any trouble.

Do you actually buy the same size in Nike vs some chuck Taylors?  You're not the enlightened one if so

yea i find it hard to believe that an adult that dresses themselves hasn't come to understand that shoe sizes can't really be standardized and that other people with different shaped feet would have to wear different sizes in different shoes

I think jinn might be my favourite poster on here right now.

Same. Whether it’s true personality or a shtick, don’t care, laugh every time and about 1/4 of the time think “FUCK, they actually make a decent point…”

Also anyone calling out honeycrisp for being a basic bitch apple needs to be including their preferred alternative so we can judge you back.

And jazz apples are great.

I have an oral allergy to a lot of apples and so far honeycrisps are the only readily available ones that don't fuck up my mouth.

I'm also backing Jinn rn, the posts have been incredible recently. Give it a year and this may end up in the popular opinions thread

It matters more when you start wearing adult shoe sizes. Kid sizes are more similar.

Why does Dick Rizzo get a man bun pass? Is it a passive aggressive "look what you could've had" gesture to Habitat for not putting him on years ago?

That’s fair, judge away. some of the heirlooms i’ve been liking are ida reds, ashmeads kernel. Arkansas blacks are good not great. Golden Russets reign supreme imo. I also like pink lady’s if I want something sweeter.

Pink ladys for eating
Granny Smith for cooking

Pink Lady is the cariuma of apples

I’ve got an apple hard-on for Fujis & Pink Ladies.
I don’t care for an overly sweet apple & texture is crucial too.
Both of the above are crispy with a lickle bit of tangy tartness to balance the sweet.

If you like Korean pears, you should try Korean sweet potatoes, sometimes you see them labeled as Japanese yams. Nothing like  a hot potatoe on cold days
