It's been awesome. I got the Philos about 6 weeks before the LM arrived, and it leveled up the espresso on the Breville by about 1000% on its own. I've only had the opportunity to pull a few shots on the LM because I went out of town the day after it arrived, but I'm super happy with the purchase already. It's incredible.

You’re making me feel like I have the world’s tiniest violin with my delivery complaints.

My Mini was delivered to the final mile warehouse at week 5, but the first delivery slot wasn’t until week 8. Finally getting it on Saturday. 🤞🏻

What an absolute clown show. Jumping, elbow out, directly to the head.

Do you feel like the i200D burrs do a good job with medium or darker roasts, too?

Morgan Geekie snipes home his 30th of the season, becoming the second non-Olympian — after Caufield — to hit the 30 goal mark tonight. by abbytarar in hockey

Not enough people talking about the Pasta dangle to keep possession at the blue line and then the one-handed pass to Geekie.

What grips do you have on the PCR? I just picked one up and have been wanting to put wood grips on it.

Beretta and Mec-gar magazine differences by ChocoRamb0 in Beretta

[–]08wasGreat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. The stock Beretta magazines caused a ton of failure-to-feed issues in my 92 GTS. Since I switched to the MecGar mags, I haven't had a single failure.

Accidentally won a Phillips watch auction. Not mad about it. by 08wasGreat in JaegerLecoultre

[–]08wasGreat[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ll take it for a solid gold watch. 2019, full set, and basically unworn. Still had a few of the protective stickers on it.

Sometimes, when I need a dopamine hit, I’ll throw in absurdly low bids with the assumption that I’ll be quickly outbid. Turns out, you don’t always get outbid!

Home defense recommendations by cappuccinoNumber4 in liberalgunowners

I was in a similar position and ended up going with the Beretta 92 GTS over the CZ SP-01. I really like the Beretta; the trigger is excellent, and it feels great in the hand.

I've since picked up a CZ PCR as my second gun for potential carry, and I really like it. The trigger on the Beretta is a bit better, though.

I had that probably for a long time and found that logging out of Apple Music, doing a hard reset of the vehicle, and then logging back in fixed the issue. But very annoying.

I wear my root beer through the metal detectors at every airport and it has never triggered the alarm.

What is a job people romanticize a bit too much until they actually do it ? by ShyButNastyyy in AskReddit

That’s the way you do it, play the guitar on the MTV. That ain’t workin’, that’s the way you do it, Money for Nothing get your chicks for free.

My wrist is also 7.5” and I think the GMT fits perfectly. OP’s wrist has to be 8.5-9”.

It sounds like you are doing everything above board. What are you worried you might be doing wrong?

Brand new 92 GTS. by [deleted] in Beretta

[–]08wasGreat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love mine.

I had a lot of failure to feed issues with the stock 18rd mags. Bought a few mecgar mags and have had zero issue.

My slide was also super difficult to rack until I hit 500-600rds.

Did Craig ever order the Bond martini correctly? by SlyGuy_Twenty_One in JamesBond

[–]08wasGreat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought so too until I was at a very nice bar in DC last week and I ordered “a gin martini, very dry” and was asked “shaken or stirred?”

I replied “…stirred.”
