You’d love it up here in the Portland area - my wife and I call out the Geo Metros we often see driving around the sea of Subarus. Such a great change from the midwest where anything pre-2000 would have giant rust holes if it hadn’t already melted into an orange pile the color of DT’s fake tan.

Our two 1-yr-old Corgis can destroy anything made of fabric pretty quickly, even the ‘tough’ nylon stuff. Nylabone Durachews are about the only thing we can leave them to chew unattended and not find destroyed 10 minutes later.

Agreed on both - I think Inslee is an excellent governor who has built a great team of people like Ferguson that kept everything running smoothly while he was out campaigning. I hope Inslee runs for a third term and convinces Ferguson to stick around and continue suing the Trump Org. over every shitty new policy.

Always one beverage, sometimes two, but never three. I work from home and start each day by brewing coffee at 6 AM. I use an insulated mug to keep it hot and towards the end of my day I may grab a glass of water. Maybe a beer on those days where I have work left after 5+ hours of conference calls.

My mom owned one of these, white auto sans supercharger, and it took a lot of abuse when a torn ACL forced me to give up my manual pickup and drive it for ~6 months. No major issues over 200,000 miles, unless you count the inevitable midwest rust that started behind the plastic side cladding. The mid-engine AWD balanc…

I would suggest that if you feel unexpected resistance when trying to decline, please stop and look behind you. I am 6'3" and in coach my knees are jammed up against the seat in front of me unless I am wide-stanced and encroaching on my neighbor or the aisle. I have frequently had painful surprises where someone…

I regularly shop at Costco in person and online. I’ve purchased many things online from socks to a new range, but there is one key thing missing: alcohol! How can you expect me to shop online when the heavenly assortment of local craft brews for $1 a bottle is only available in-store? 

As someone in a two-person household I have to disagree about the cereal because you can get it SO much cheaper at Costco than buying individual boxes at the grocery store. With the $10+ you save on buying the giant box, buy an airtight storage container! We have some 1970's Tupperware cereal containers that hold a…

Uh, how is their traditional cardboard box not recyclable?  I’ve always been able to recycle those materials, and I can certainly recycle this new plastic bubble sleeve if I take it to the appropriate location like the plastic film collection bins outside my local grocery stores.

Please change this misleading headline. If you read the WaPo article linked to, it clearly states that the plastic mailers can be recycled correctly at plastic BAG recycling locations like those at the entrance of your grocery store. As with any plastic film, this should not go in the curbside bin with your milk jugs…

Seconded. Even though we have A/C-powered smoke detectors in our new home they were original to the house and 10 years past their replacement date. We found Costco had great prices on multi-packs of hardwired detectors with wiring harness adapters so replacement was incredibly easy.

Thanks for confirming we made the right choice in getting a Poopsie for my 6-yo niece. It sounds like a perfect follow-up to last year’s hit present of the Don’t Step In It game. The description of digging out a heart-shaped butthole with a toothpick is EXACTLY the type of punishment I had in mind when my sister’s…

I got the same tires for my wife’s 07 Fit Sport last Summer from Costco. (195/55) We took a long road trip in early April and she successfully drove through 100+ miles of snowy I-84 in Montana and Idaho. I had the pleasure of driving through snow at 11,000+ feet in Colorado’s Monarch Pass and it could have been much wo…

Your fry-side ranking is missing a major front-runner. Nothing goes better with a slab of spicy ribs than a plate of fries you can use to mop up the BBQ sauce. (White bread is also an acceptable side in your finer establishments, but ribs should be on this list)

I think your problem is sticking with pre-built water cooling loops.  They’re only designed to handle a small amount of heat exchange and you may need a more powerful solution.  I’ve had a 3x120mm radiator in my case for six years that started as GPU+CPU cooling but now only cools my CPU as the new GPUs run crazy-hot…

As a former Iowan, I really hope you’re correct. Unfortunately, I bet Tritip is right and most Trump voters will just buy whatever spin Grassley and King come up with to blame their unsold beans and foreclosed farms on “MS-13 animals.”

Moved to the Portland area from the midwest last year, and I can’t deny the Rogue Brewpub at PDX airport was a factor. Their beers were no more expensive than at a downtown bar, and the food tasted too good to have come out of a microwave.

The whole point of Deadpool is to satire the industry that makes shitty films like Batman vs. Superman. It was not meant for people like you who would rather enjoy a Will Ferrel or Tim Carrey movie where they don’t swear so much and stick to the hackneyed Hollywood Comedy formula.

If you feel the Mercedes is too fancy, keep driving the Acura and have your dad donate or sell the Mercedes. Maybe you take care of everything in return for some cash towards your future Subaru?

I didn’t see any mention of robots replacing the humans that prepare and serve the food, so I’m not sure this would eliminate any jobs.
