to be fair, it probably got beat up because...it’s Tacoma. The only place I’ve had my car dinged more in a parking lot than Tacoma, is Bellevue.

you sure they just didn’t want you parking too close to their car? I’ve had bimmer owners tell me I can’t park next to their car in public lots before (no car show or anything). I’ve even seen guys park and pull out traffic cones from their trunk and set them down on the neighboring spaces. obnoxious.

well seattle land owners are most of the problem too. People are SUPER NIMBY here. So they won’t allow low income housing in their neighborhoods, won’t allow apartment buildings or condos, and really love the street sweeps. Everyone just wants to shove the problem somewhere else, at huge expense, without doing…

yeah it doesn’t help that the men’s shirts retail for $80 but are similar quality to old navy/gap. They go on sale for $25 which is a little high but maybe about right for what you get. I question why anyone would ever buy their stuff at full price. I just walk straight to the back clearance section and don’t look…

“The huge influx of Amazon money and homeless people exported from other cities to temperate Seattle has basically obliterated any kind of affordable housing in Seattle.”

They haven’t. As a resident of seattle, the homeless problem is somewhat caused by the general pricing out of the market (which many, many companies have contributed to, as have the residents), but mostly the gentle temperate climate and liberal politics around homelessness. Outside cities export their homeless to…

counterpoint: Turkey is amazing and it’s a crime that you can’t easily get it all year long. I wait all year for my favorite holiday activity: Turkey eating. I love to gobble gobble up that bird. I love taking the remaining scraps and putting it into a casserole afterwards. It is a blissful time. I love the post…

The irony is that men want OUT of the engagement ring business. There’s increasing pressure and the costs keep going up (1 month salary? I heard that was how it was in the 40s. I was told it used to be 2 months salary until recently and now it’s “at least” 3 months salary). I did not go into debt but I definitely…

Thank you for the recommendation though!!!!! And no disrespect to the product. It juts didn’t work for me for some reason. I still have a half bottle in my shower though haha.

I have. I actually was not super enthused by it. I have a really oily face and it didn’t do enough to cut through, even with a clarsonic.

You’re always made to shake hands with your bully and become friends. It’s such a load of crap. I learned important lessons in my time at grade school: No matter who starts it, always be the one who finishes it. And also never get caught being beat up by a bully, because you’ll have to apologize to them.

Newsflash: PS4 fanboys chime in saying the PS4 is better than Xbox.

I loved the story in ME1. The story for ME:A was interesting but I just couldn’t care about the characters. I tried! I played to the bitter end and still just don’t care. :( That said I do still want an ME:A2.

Keep in mind that people buy new cars more frequently in japan. Because of the dreaded Shaken, nobody wants to keep a car after a few years because they don’t want to pay the insane testing fees. Plus you can’t drive cars around with dents on them (at least not in the city).

where do you live? In some states, the local government has signed laws preventing the federal subsidies from going to you, so you’re artificially paying more because your lawmakers are trying to spite obamacare.

yeah Mrs, Macross is obsessed with all white kitchens. We do not have one but she keeps pining after one.

Kitchens are also way prettier these days and people want to show it off. Before you didn’t want people seeing the kitchen but through the 50s to present people just started hanging out there. They were the focal point of entertainment and it became a PAIN to deal with all those people in there with closed concept.

counterpoint: open concept rocks! You take a small home and make it feel massive. Now when people are obsessed with hanging out in the kitchen while you’re trying to freakin get the main course ready, they can hang out in the living room or at the dining room table and still talk with you while you pretend to listen…

I used to have some comic books work thousands. They’re worth basically nothing now. Just because people are nuts about something now doesn’t ensure value in the future. Magic cards are all over the map and while the trend line is overall up, some day it’ll crash.

It’s basically supposed to be the united states’ paragon of progressiveness.
