Wait ‘till the Sad Shoggoths hear about this.

What’s weird is that I often overshoot my party’s number (by two) to make sure I get a reservation. I’ve never heard of undershooting.

I HAVE A SERIOUS QUESTION YOU GUYS.

I’m Canadian and Portland Maine was the primary Portland we knew about up here until the hipster thing, unless you were in BC. Then the Portland Oregon one got well known outside of the states because of Portlandia hahahaha. Until then, Oregon was known as the state which had Eugene, where you had to go if you wanted…

I got no sympathy for the last story. It’s not even WTF worthy. Walk your lazy ass to the restaurant, three blocks is not a fucking Arctic expedition.

I don’t think my cupboards have ever been so bare that I would have gone to sleep hungry if the delivery driver didn’t show. You don’t have a box of macaroni, or a can of tuna or something? It might not be good, but you have to have SOME food.

Not really on topic, but where you mortified when “corn-holing” became a term for throwing beanbags into holes in wood? At my old job they had corn-holing tournaments and I just didn’t...

The movie theater story reminded me of one of my own. One time getting popcorn at a local multiplex, the (obviously new) teenage girl behind the counter asked me “Would you like a golden shower with that?” causing me to pause significantly before confirming that I would like some butter-like topping. While she was…

There is a special place in hell for people who order delivery during snowstorms. And in that hell, crab rangoon will always be Three. Blocks. Away.

I would love to exploit this at some point.

Especially airlines/baggage handlers. I live in Portland ME and I can’t tell you the number of times we’ve intercepted very befuddled tourists wandering around the jetport asking which way to Seattle.

Oh I love it. That is a big YES! It’ll go with all my colorful Fiestaware, too.

I can’t believe this photo exists. Thank you Google Image.

I only laugh at salads alone.

It’s all the same to me because that set is redonk for any demographic. Bold statement alert: Rich people are dumb as rocks.

....I want that ladle that looks like the loch ness monster.

A ladle is actually super-useful if you need to transfer hot liquid from one pot to another — like when you’re making risotto, for example. We use ours all the time (though we also own only one peeler. And it’s one of the comfy Oxo ones, not a weird minimalist one like the MOMA one.)

LOL! I have a ladle and no peelers (or graters, now that I think about it,) and I LOVE SOUP! If it weren’t projected to be 94 in the shade this weekend, I would be making soup! But yeah, this set is just incredibly wrong-headed. A good starter set for college is nothing like this. Hell, this is bad for a starter set…

When it comes to zesters, microplane or GTFO. And yes, I don’t think ladle technology has improved to the point where one could justify that much more for one. There’s not many variations on bowl at end of stick that could make much of a difference in it’s ability to ladle soup for you.
