I will admit straight up that I do not know what kind of deal Amazon actually has with the Post Office. But I could sort of understand some kind of volume discount. Can’t be too many other single entities that ship that much stuff. Are the margins on postal rates just too low to justify such a thing? What exactly is…
One thing I think this review missed is that he was acting like that, with Fitz in particular, BEFORE he had his familial realization. He’s just latched on to these guys and is excited to be there. The family connection just adds to it.
The problem is that, as awesome as small, locally owned toy stores probably would be, they don’t have the massive purchasing power that something like Toys R Us has, so there are likely to be fewer oddball/collector focused/oversized items that a big national store can support, because it won’t be profitable to make…
Tipping is why “tipped minimum wage” (that is, a lesser minimum that assumes they will get tips) exists. Tipped minimum wage is why tipping is a moral imperative rather than a reward for exceptional service or general generosity. Tipped minimum also allows employers to pay less and keep more. It absolutely helps their…
Oh how I miss Carl’s Jr. There’s only one within like 100 miles of me. I used to live down the street from it. Now it’s an hour’s drive away.
I guess that’s subjective. There are some really terrific cues in the series, but they are deliberately short cues that can be recycled many times. Hard to stand up 1:1 against the tightly scored animated movie score.
Mine also did this and I found it incredibly alarming.
You clearly have not heard it. There is some great music in the show’s score.
What you most likely have is the Transformers: The Movie soundtrack. This is the TV series. Completely different music.
Absolutely cannot take your side on the drive thru bit. I can not count how many times my order has not only been wrong, but DRASTICALLY wrong, ordering to go, both at the drive through and from the counter. I don’t even mean extra/lack of sauce. Items prepared entirely wrong on special orders. Whole menu items,…
My browser lacks an Open Image In New Tab option. I use Firefox. It’s just not there. So that’s a reason.
This is an attitude known as “blaming the victim”.
We always talk about guns, but what about the bullets needed to fire them? It is easier to buy ammo than it is to buy certain decongestants. As I understand it, all that’s required now is just to convince the person behind the counter you’re over 18. Putting aside the fact that, yes, it is possible to roll one’s own…
That’s not even close to the weirdest thing. I have always been most aghast at the fact that stores are forced to take nice, hot items like rotisserie chicken, and then refrigerate it before it can be sold with EBT. Exact same item, except instead of being put in a heat lamp afterwards, it’s been put in a…
Well, as I said before, I wasn’t specifically speaking of Snapchat’s redesign. I don’t use it, and don’t know what, exactly, they changed. I have assumed it, in part, involves trying to duplicate what some other more currently popular app is doing. That may be incorrect. If the big takeaway is just that they’ve found…
I feel like you’re practically making my point for me here. You take a product that’s slipping, make a drastic bid to grab new people, and in the process alienate and lose your existing customers. I see it over and over. That’s a sure way to guarantee a failure, because without the power of an existing base, you may…
I don’t use Snapchat, so this specific instance isn’t relevant to me, but it’s part of a trend and practice I do not understand. You have an app/software that people like, that people use. But maybe you start grubbing for some extra market share, so you look to your competitors. You copy the things you think people…
The key word in xevioso’s post was “openly”. The number of “actual racists” may not have significantly increased (and may have even decreased), but certainly the extant ones have been further emboldened to more openly express those feelings, perhaps in more extreme ways than they might have previously.
My mind boggled, years ago, the first time I noticed a show censor out “god” but not “damn” in that phrase. Just... WTF.
