As somebody who does not typically shop hungry, and is then mad at Shopping Dagoth when I’m hungry for snacks later in the week, you make a lot of sense.

To be clear, you can already buy any kind of beer you want in Utah, it just has to be in a state-owned store. This law affects what can be purchased at a grocery/convenience store.

Anyone but Trump 2020.

One thing I really try to separate out when at restaurants is which problems are caused by the server, and which ones are out of the server’s control.

The Outback has the same ground clearance as the Forester. 

I am so infinitely glad that  when I was a teenager (a) social media didn’t exist and (b) I wasn’t famous enough for anyone to give a shit what I did.

Of course they are a transportation company. Where they get their money from is much more important than how they accomplished that goal. 

There’s a Trader Joe’s walking distance from my office. On payday I’ll walk down there on my lunch break and pick up five or six frozen lunch type things to keep in the office freezer. That way, even if I forget my lunch or just don’t want to deal with it that day I know I have something at the office that is going to…

And with the last bite of the best item being the best part of the best item, e.g. the tenderest, most perfectly done bite of the steak. This is to be followed by the last swig of the beverage at hand, the beverage having been carefully portioned out to coincide with the last bite. This is why I refuse to share the…

If I can have one for less than $50K that has their claimed 340 mile range, I’m a Day 1 preorder.

The cars definitely look better and cooler, but the crossovers will appeal to more people at once (IMHO, it’s a freakish anomaly that the Leaf, Volt, Prius, and Model 3 have sold at all — but it’s only for lack of BEV or PHEV competition with better layouts than hatchbacks and small sedans).

I.D. Buzz or GTFO. 

Totally agree with your first two, and we do this.

I’m almost at the year anniversary of making a point of bringing my lunch to work and I really don’t know why it took me so long to figure this out.

I do that and park about 1/4 mile from work to avoid spending $20/day for a garage spot. Plus it’s a nice walk.

“There were these hearings in the ‘30s where they brought rich people in front of Congress and just kind of trashed them.”

I’m guessing so it would fit in a suit jacket pocket. Literally playing it close to the vest.

Let’s be fair here, the problem isn’t that people can’t decide what they want until they pull up to the squawk box, it’s that you can’t see the goddamn menu until you pull up to it. I usually have an idea what I want before I get there, but sometimes the menu reminds me of something that I haven’t had in a while, or I…

Along those lines, I found I was able to happily drink much less when the “something to look forward to” was waking up feeling good the next morning. I now think of it as a luxury. It’s a treat I can give myself by going home.
