Had a similar situation around here a couple of years ago. A small gathering at a local Chic-fil-a got too big and the owners of the stores in the adjacent shopping mall forced them to close it down. Several months later, the same store owners were bemoaning the drop off of sales.

“ It’s the city of Malibu/Malibu police causing all of the issues.”

Yep. The car folks eat breakfast at the Malibu Kitchen, and then go shopping afterwards. They're already there, why would they not? At first it was the business owners putting up signs and cones to stop the sports cars parking there. I guess they've realized it brings business, and now it's the residents of Malibu…

No, the people with surfboards are parking there to go surfing across the street at Malibu Point when the Lagoon parking lot is full. The car enthusiasts generally are eating coffee/breakfast at Bill’s or one of the other restaurants there.

I think that listening to the businesses and actually understanding their concerns should be the primary concern. If no one is complaining except 1, then what’s their issue and how can it be remedied?

I mean, it was a Lincoln MKZ soooooooooo.

Sorry, man, I’m usually in line with you, but I haven’t touched those in over a decade because they’re terrible.

Sometimes a claim is just so damned ridiculous you have to import new words just to say how ridiculous it is.

People who voted for Donald Trump because they think he’s one of them even though he’s an east coast elite who was born and raised by millionaires in a golden palace?

It is a Pop Tart, that’s like complaining there’s not enough “kids” in Sour Patch Kids, consumers have to shift expectations based on the product itself. If you want more than 2% strawberry puree, buy toaster pastries from Annie’s Homegrown or Nature’s Path.

This only goes to prove that there is no meme so obviously stupid that some idiot won’t believe it and repeat it to all his friends. Seriously.... COVID got to us through the lobsters? WTF. An airborne virus that would start with an underwater creature? I just can’t anymore with these wingnuts.

People actually believed there were real strawberries in these things?

Or like Tesla and direct sales of cars where everyone pays sticker and not like traditional sales where 90% of cars are sold at a discount?

I didn't even make it that far. I got to the middle of the first book before realizing I didn't care about any of these people or what happened to them.

Next time you don’t have to post a picture of every single one of them. I’ll take your word for it.

When I sold GMC’s (2019) we actually had a lot of customers coming from Chevy just because the refreshed Silverados were so ugly. I genuinely sold over a dozen trucks to people who said they wouldn’t be seen in the Silverado.

the problem with the reese’s holiday offerings is that the ratio is all off. pumpkins, trees, hearts, eggs, whatever it is, they all have way too much peanut butter with not enough chocolate on the outside. the cup is the perfect combination.

That’s a good point—while size is good as a safety feature, there’s been a hell of a lot of engineering going into safety since 1973. My brother in law was in a small Korean car that got hit in an offset head-on by an old pickup. He lived, and my nephew in the passenger seat had only minor injuries. The car was…

No, wet wipes have fragrance, which contaminates the shrimp with a terrible taste. Moist terry cloth hand towels is what you want. Bring a ziploc bag with a couple.
