FTFY. A pallet is a small bed or an object used for carrying things, a palate is part of the mouth or one’s ability to taste things. Pretty pedantic, I know, but I have this compulsion to correct misused homophones, so… Sorry? You’re welcome? Either way, have a great day!
It’s always worthwhile to be self-aware and to be conscious of the parts of your personality that others might be annoyed by or take offense to. I’m not going to change that part of my personality just to please others, but I don’t think it’s annoying to acknowledge that others might not appreciate that part of who I am.
But hey, you do you. If being your authentic self means not caring about how your words affect the feelings of others, then that’s just who you are, I guess.
I for one appreciated both aspects of your comment. It’s good to understand both yourself and others and to seek to find a balance between genuine self expression and consideration. Also it’s good info that many lack
In all honesty, I think it’s likely a simple mistake.
The object that artists use to hold their paints is actually a third homophone, spelled palette.
It could be that the word choice was intentional and is referencing the character’s bed, but I find it more likely that it was simply lost in translation from the original Japanese
They probably use different mixtures in the US, but here in Germany I think everyone can taste the difference. Pepsi is way sweeter and imo tastes more artificially (compared to coke).
Yeah, I mean it’s the kind of thing most people don’t really think about till your really try them side by side at least once. For me, Coke seems to have a bit of a cinnamon or similar spice flavor going on while Pepsi lacks that spice hit and tastes a lot sweeter.
I would say they only become distinguishable if you actually like cola, and drink I enough to be able to distinguis. Like all things taste, if you aren’t exposed to it often, you can’t tell the difference.
I’d bet you GF just rarely drank either coke or Pepsi.
As someone who rarely drinks Coke and even less often Pepsi (quite uncommon in my country) I still can easily distinguish them. I possibly wouldn’t be able to tell if one is Pepsi or some other brand but I’m sure I can tell it’s not Coke.

I prefer palette because tastes are kinda like colours.
That’s just the synesthesia talking.
… But you’re not wrong
Don’t apologize for being who you are, if only because the apology was more annoying than the patronizing correction.

Yeah autocorrect has gotten markedly more annoying about that.
the best is when you manually edit it 3 times but it keeps changing it
Then why is Pallet Town spelled like that? It’s a reference to colors.

From a soda fountain I can’t tell the difference because they always get mixed wrong anyway. Out of a can yeah they’re different.

That’s pretty much the same as in the US too.
In some European countries, Pepsi actually reduced the sugar amount and replaced with artificial sweeteners.

I did the Pepsi challenge when they were setup at a booth in Vancouver. Ended up picking Coke
It’s alright, we can’t all pass on the first try
It’s still one of the most effective ways to detect cognitive decline
I did it three times. Always picked coke.

Well, you must have a great palette haha.
If you randomly give me one of the two: no idea.
Back to back, sure I could tell, else, it’s cola.
“Dicks and vaginas are like coke and Pepsi: I strongly prefer one, but my dad thinks they taste the same.”
Pepsi tastes like artificially sweetened flat coke.
Pepsi max on the other hand testes like a mix of various household chemicals with sugar and a little vomit
i don’t have the slightest clue why people enjoy that “flavour”
Pepsi Max is sugar-free.
i don’t think pointing out how it only has purely artificial sweeteners makes it better in any way

I can’t tell the difference between Pepsi and store-brand cola, but I can definitely tell the difference between Pepsi and Coke.
I also couldn’t tell the difference, but is very slight to me
