Zweigle’s + Boss sauce = Rochester. I think Syracuse’s thing is Hofmanns.

While I am a native Yankee, I’ve been in NC for over 20 years (between Winston, Raleigh, and Wilmington), and I’ve never heard of Bright Leaf either.

My no-flip memory foam mattress developed a hagrok-sized divot over time despite a frame and boxspring, and what I did was fold a thin blanket a couple times and stick it under the mattress. This required some experimentation because I could feel it if it wasn’t lined up or if it was folded too thickly, but once I got…

Agreed. It’s delightfully wacky, too. I sat down to watch an episode or two one day when I needed some brain popcorn, and watched the whole thing in a week or two.

I don’t care how bad it was, Troy made my toes curl.

The chile lime chips are decent, but they are in no way better than Takis.

I bought a refurbished Apple Watch last summer - a 4, I think - because I wanted to track my heart rate due to shenanigans. (SVT, not a-fib) Despite being nearly 100% battery health, and every single major feature turned down or off, the battery was dead within 5 hours.

I have a relative in child protective who deals with both victims and abusers. They are very much in alignment with Dr. Walker’s views.

Stuffing. There’s always celery in it, and cooked celery is an abomination.

I used to volunteer at shelters, and working with angry & scared cats was my favorite thing to do - it is so rewarding to see them learn how to accept love!

I was in a surge at a Dream Theater show in 1993 - up front, on a wobbly festival tent barrier. I was absolutely terrified it was going to go down and everyone in the front with it, but thankfully they held. I got pretty thoroughly crunched in a Queensryche show a couple years earlier, too - it was my first arena show…

I live on the third floor of an apartment, with only one dumpster, which is uphill on the far side of the complex. Most people put their garbage in/on their car and drive it up there. I don’t have a car, so I have to carry it all the way down and all the way over and up.

At work one afternoon a few years ago, during the height of Frozen craze, there was a woman and her four young boys shopping in my store. Let It Go was on the radio rotation, and at one point, I heard four little voices belting out “Here I stand and here I stay!” at the top of their lungs. It was both hilarious and…

Youtube rather than a podcast, but my favorite history channel is Extra Credits. All kinds of cool and interesting subjects, and the videos mostly range about 7-15 minutes, so you don’t have to spend an hour plus unless you really want to.

I made it through book six, which I threw at the wall twice because of mortally offensive cheap plot tricks, and refused to read any more. I know Sanderson has done good things with the last few books, but there is no fixing Jordan’s cheating his characters out of consequences for their (or others’) actions.

Earls Court would like to have a word with you - even London can’t figure out whether there’s an apostrophe or not.

The main thing I suggest is checking as early as possible, at least 2-3 months out. The properties with good ratings tend to get booked pretty quickly, and the pickings start getting slim 2-4 weeks out - longer, if you’re looking in a high demand neighborhood and/or in tourist season. I needed a short-notice one night…

I just poke through the AirBNB site and scale it down to the most I’m willing to pay. Sometimes I have a specific area I want to stay in due to activities or friends or whatever, and sometimes I go in with an open mind looking for a good deal that’s interesting. I do Google Maps the area (even if they don’t give you a…

I liked it more than I expected, too.

I tried the black cherry Pepsi and it was merely okay. Now I’m debating if I want to try the cream soda...

While this is true, everybody seems to ignore the part where people can be shitty employees too, and they quit because management doesn’t put up with their crap.
