    vodka and milk is not a valid recipe for a white russian. idk what the hell the dude thinks he's drinking but it's definitely not that.

    I don't remeber what a White Russian should be made of from my bartender years, but if it was cream, well I stay with the Dude.

    At one point you've to prioritize your calories.

    Kahlua - necessary Vodka - necessary Cream???? > Milk

    I've never seen someone drink half & half the way people drink milk. Like just a straight glass of half & half.

    It is used almost exclusively as a substitute for heavy cream in recipes, so my mind considers it cream.

    50/50. Half cream, half whole milk... But the few times I've tasted it on its own, it is much closer to cream imo

    The Dude is both chill, and poor. Not everyone has coffee liqueur and creamer money. He makes do with what's around and he's happy about it.

    That's cause you're young.

    When you get to the 50s you can't use cream, bur you doesn't stop to like white russian

    i think the kahlua is probably the most important thing there... otherwise it just tastes like milk.

    only one of these could be called a hero.

    leon is at BEST a very dark shade of morally gray as a former child soldier who was raised to be a hitman by the mob.

    and the dude is just the dude. he just wanted his damn rug back.

    The opening narration confirms that the Dude is in fact, not a hero (emphasis mine):

    [...] I only mention it because sometimes there's a man... I won't say a hero, 'cause, what's a hero? But sometimes, there's a man. And I'm talkin' about the Dude here. Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's the Dude, in Los Angeles. And even if he's a lazy man - and the Dude was most certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest in Los Angeles County, which would place him high in the runnin' for laziest worldwide. But sometimes there's a man, sometimes, there's a man. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But... aw, hell. I've done introduced him enough.

    I've always thought the trope was based on the idea of stunted development. Kids are heavily encouraged to drink milk, so films making a point of adults drinking it are indicating that there's some part of growing up that they've missed.

    It wasn't meant as any sort of insult, more of the trope of overanalizing innocuous things.

    I was considering just not replying to this but I decided that this mindset makes me too sad.

    If an artist decides to include something in their work, it is likely going to be relevant in some way.

    To use the stupid meme example of "the curtains were fucking blue" your teacher wasn't telling you that blue curtains = sadness, they were telling you to think critically about what the writer chose to include in the text.

    "The curtains were fucking blue" can be a valid interpretation, but the issue is when people stop their thinking at that surface level and ridicule any deeper analysis of a work.

    It's also not made for adults, it's literally baby food for mamals.
    While some parts of the world have been drinking it out of necessity to survive (in colder climate) most of the world haven't developed a lactose tolerancy.
    Adult milk drinkers are indeed freaks.

    Yet several cultures across the world developed means to drink milk and eat cheese. The mongols' fermentation process allows them to eat and drink despite being lactose intolerant, not to mention they make kumis from mare milk

    I'll stick to milking my almonds, even if it's a tedious job bcs their tits are very small.

    It's actually really easy, you put them in a blender with water and then squeeze them in a cheesecloth so the proteins come out. And you can make crackers with the dried leftovers.

    But oat milk > almond milk and for that you do unfortunately have to milk thousands of tiny little oat titties.

    Well it's not like plants are made for us to eat but we still eat them

    Actually lots of the plant parts we eat did evolve being eaten as part of the survival plan. Fruits disperse seeds and keep us less interested in eating more vital parts of the plant.

    Not particularly by us, the same as milk didn't evolve to be particularly drunk by humans

    "Not particularly by us" OK then not particularly by anything by that logic, as we're very much included in the wide range of animals who's dietary needs have conditioned the evolution of fruit-based seed dispersal. Fact of the matter is we've been eating and pooping out seeds for the entire existence of our species and likely the entire existence of our mammalian lineage. We did evolve to eat fruit and they did evolve to be eaten by us.

    We evolved to benefit from our own milk, too. Though only for the first year or so of life.
