I've always wondered why yoghurt is a thing. It's basically spoiled milk. But going back to cereal, I really dislike anything that's "fruit" flavoured.

Based on this thread, it seems that this site has plenty of penguin members. Or maybe they're krill.

I love the aesthetics of epic fantasies, but I don't always like reading them. I really dislike having to keep up with hundreds of characters and factions and made up terminology, and large-scale conflicts don't interest me unless the actual main characters are central to it, and have personal...
