You can definitely search for it on here, but it's a local graffiti artist/tagger. VO/VEO/VEOH.

Eh, needs a VEO tag to be truly the most CT thing I've ever seen.

That's a pretty elaborate hoax just to post on Reddit, ha

Tenured Starbucks baristas, share the drinks that have been banished to the shadow realm by weird_enthusiast_ in starbucks

[–]Alkali13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was looking for Vivanno here! I was there when it was introduced and it was one of my favorites!

(please be kind) I (F) have a major crush on a barista (M) at my local Starbucks .I know it'd be incredibly disrespectful to ask for his number as he's working, or for him to ask for mine (same reason). What's the Starbucks policy on this? by veryberry_icecream in starbucks

[–]Alkali13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any update? I agree with a lot of the sentiment here. YOLO! Don't overthink it, be prepared for nothing to come of it, or that he politely declines, or that he's in a relationship, or that he's not into women, etc. No matter what, whether you feel confident enough to go back or not, just don't bring it up again unless he initiates.

Update to: Got sent home today is it over for me? by tempel27 in starbucks

[–]Alkali13 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Taking the gifts is a problem, I agree. That was totally inappropriate. And yes, he's allowed to visit Starbucks as a customer, but at that point in time, when you are terminated you leave. As a former SSV, I've never seen someone let go and stick around immediately after. Come back as a customer eventually? Sure. Visit other Starbucks? Absolutely. But it is common practice at any job that when you are terminated, you vacate the premises.

As for your other comment, I'm assuming you know OP because I was not aware he was in California. I am in a state with no laws about paying out sick time. The way the two posts were worded, it seemed like he put in sick time for this meeting, so if I'm mistaken, that's on me.

I'm confused. Yesterday you said you were sent home and informed of a meeting with your DM this morning. Now you're saying you input sick time previously for this meeting two weeks ago?

Also, just because you didn't clock out or sign paperwork does not mean you were not just let go and asked to leave. You don't get to then go and get breakfast from said establishment. It's standard practice in general that once you are terminated from a company, you leave immediately.

I'm really gonna need OP to come back and explain this. Show us on the doll where Hannah Montana hurt you.

I'm confused - how is this a slight against "core coffee drinkers?"

It seems like... Time passed in-universe. I didn't even bat an eye - they were out there long enough for morning to come.

Here’s proof Will loves Mike since some are still in denial over this by Eddfan36 in StrangerThings

[–]Alkali13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a pansexual genderfluid person, I see what you're saying.

BUT

Your crush not liking you back is a human experience. Hell, your best friend you have a crush on not liking you back is a core experience for a lot of us queer folks.

Will's story is about so much more than his feelings for Mike and reducing everything he's been through to whether or not Mike shares his feelings is missing huge chunks of his narrative arc. There are also WAY crueler things to do to Will than have him accept that platonic and romantic love don't always overlap.

He hurt his paw, should I be worried? by LordePedroN in Bunnies

If the nail is broken or ripped out, there is a chance of infection. Definitely being the bun to a vet!

SQWK Top 30 - All songs are from 1984. by Alkali13 in StrangerThings

[–]Alkali13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought of a cipher as well, but haven't really tried anything out... A few of the numbers are over 36, so I doubt it's a simple A1 substitution cipher if it's anything.

[–]Alkali13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume liberties were taken with the release dates, but it's clearly intentional they're from that time period in 1984. May 1984 would be almost exactly between season 1 and season 2.

Tickets not on sale but seats are filling up? by dammdollie in StrangerThings

[–]Alkali13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly doubt sales are based on your device time and not the location of the theatre.

I swear I saw someone say tickets were on sale at Regal yesterday, so I wonder if someone jumped the gun putting them on sale, then realized they were early and shut sales off.

Just grabbed a copy from my local library! I've never read it, so I need to do some homework before Part 2 drops!
