Name checks out.

Is Goonies a cult film? I know it’s got more famous cast and production, but I grew up in the PNW and it was pretty much required viewing. I never heard about Monster Squad till I met transplants to Portland from the Midwest and further. Then a lot of them had never seen Goonies. I just assumed childhoods went like…

I live right in between rural farmland and a high-tech suburb, and I see both. To generalize, it’s jackasses in big trucks who can’t seem to keep a steady speed and don’t care about other cars on the road, and overly cautious Prius drivers trying to maximize their gas mileage by getting in the left lane and turning on…

WinCo is your best option in Oregon for most items, you can consistently get the same item and brand for less there than anywhere else. They have a larger and more diverse meat department, and have a way more varied selection of ethnic foods. They don’t have as much in the way of organic and gluten free options, but…

The problem with Hawaii is that it’s Hawaii, there’s very limited space to develop and it’s a pretty wonderful place live. It’s also an island separated from major ports by thousands of miles, so the cost of living is very high on top of the cost for square footage.

I agree that they both seemed too young for their backstories... if they wanted one someone that young Saoirse Ronan seems like a better choice for Laureline, since she played more of a badass as child then either of the leads.

Going into the movie I did know anything about it besides the fact it was based off a series…

Baron Harkonnen was able to rise to the rank of planetary governor and Steve Bannon looks only slightly more infected and grotesque.

Sorry, isn’t the trick to teach your kids that there are things you can only do around trusted people? That’s how I learned about swearing, my parents had no problem with me swearing as long as I didn’t do it around anyone who would complain to them about it. It was up to me to be smart enough to determine who those…

I scrolled though a ton of responses and I never saw anyone bring up kimchi jjigae. I’m not Korean, but one of my best friends since childhood is and anytime I ended up with any questionable kimchi and asked him to check it for me, he almost always just end up hanging out and grabbing whatever garlic, onions, and…

I was definitely with you for the first half, and then you just ended up describing the process of aging.

I don’t know why it took till now or this post for me to realize I’ve never bothered to follow you, but your posts are always awesome reads and incredibly impressive and I just remedied my oversight.

So I haven’t thoroughly investigated the options, but can you control the response of a bump stock, as in selecting how quickly it bounces back? If so it seems like if someone practiced and dialed in their control of maybe a less powerful round, and combined that with a well designed compensator they’d be able to…

Also another real problem is that if they do manage to outlaw the sale of bump stocks, there’s other alternatives on the market that probably won’t be affected by whatever wording they choose to use in the law. Look up hand cranks, they keep you from firing as accurately as you could with a tuned and practiced bump…

This happened to a friend of mine when we were both in our early 20s, probably around 2005? There’s no twist ending or anything I’m just relating a story this reminded me of that I haven’t thought about in years.

His first car was a 1992 Honda Prelude that he loved but was never taken that good of care of before he got…

Then I went to click the star and nothing happened. I’ll be back, because the future begins tomorrow!

I was going to give you a star for your post, then I saw your name and wish I could give you another star. So now my plan is to hopefully see you post something again, ideally something minor and inconsequential that would never normally get a star, and I’ll be there. If that never happens than I can only hope that in…

What if you made the shifter into a cup holder, but it’s a non-standard size so only official or specially made aftermarket travel mugs fit into it? Perhaps the mug is also the key? That seems decently utilitarian and overly complicated at the same time.

Also being able to time your drinks along with proper shifting…

At least with cats everyone is expecting immediate and unnecessary violence at any time, they’re cats, so if you put your hands up and try and turn yourself in they might just attack you. You could pet them in the exact way they love to be petted and they might attack you. With human police there’s some expectation…

First, I had to check the comments to make sure other people were identifying the name Audrey as female, I even searched baby names to make sure I wasn’t taking crazy pills after all the “he” usage in the article. It’s definitely a women’s name right?

For the article itself Torch’s call is perfect for “regional burns…
