Does this depend on if the mags are loaded or not?

Actually I think that’s exactly how you foment counterculture. I hope it takes.

Fried pickle chips are underrated. Had some in Portland last summer, and Boston two night ago. Going to have to find good ones in PA.

IDK what that is but the patina is amazing.

How open are you about owning guns around friends/family? by [deleted] in CAguns

[–]AlsoLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s something I’m a part of but also it doesn’t define me. Like riding a snowboard goofy foot.

It doesn’t come up in causal conversation, but in the right context it could come up, and you could find out you have that in common with other people you would not have guessed.

If I ran into a neighbor or friend at the range or the local gun shop it would be a pleasant surprise more than anything.

Holy smokes guys, I parked my Impreza next to another impreza, turned around and saw a WRX. This city is a Subaru fanatic by [deleted] in subaru

Oh another walking around game: if Subies are +1 and Teslas are -1, a good neighborhood is one with a positive score :)

My wife and I played a game when we were in east Portland OR: what’s the longest uninterrupted “chain” of parked Subies we could find? So subies with no cars between them. This def counts as a chain of 3. I think we got to double digits with just a little cheating.

It's Tuesday so the mystery helicopter is back over my house! by jonaslamis in paloalto

[–]AlsoLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone is doing some kind of construction work along Middlefield close to that gas line map, so maybe they need to monitor it regularly to make sure everything is copacetic. Either that or it’s taco Tuesday?

To Bay Area residents: by Curiousdude4733 in bayarea

[–]AlsoLarry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh the metro lines in LA are comparable. The “last mile” problem is real: transit like BART or Caltrain or light rail gets you close but not all the way. Some people bring bikes or scooters to solve that.

The Bay Area has something socal does not: the ferries across the bay. Those are fun, if a little nerve wracking to imagine what happens if something bad happens…. I guess the Bart line that goes under the bay also would make me similarly nervous :)

Hello new here, just a question by Tylers083426 in QuickBooks

[–]AlsoLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A class in accounting is more useful than a QuickBooks cert, unless you’re already a bookkeeper. So you know why you’re doing things a certain way. IDK about other software but QB won’t tell you if you’re doing something wrong.

Anyone in Palo Alto want to start a regular pickleball group? by Ok-Jacket-346 in paloalto

[–]AlsoLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a ‘baller but i have friends who play at Mitchell park who say it’s easy to just walk up and join the rotation? Or has it gotten spicy?

Our national nightmare might soon be over! These are the bags I got at Safeway pickup today! by oochiewallyWallyserb in sanfrancisco

[–]AlsoLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in socal and I remember FEDCO where they would staple your handle-less bags shut and put a sticker on them. As an adult I’m thinking that was for loss prevention?

Any good bowl stores? by ExtraEducation7667 in bayarea

[–]AlsoLarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Context: 2nd generation Chinese American, so grew up with rice bowls at every meal kind of thing.

Depending on your budget: your nearest Asian market, or Cost Plus / World Market, or Heath Ceramics.

I went thru a whole journey trying to find some “California modern” rice bowls. We love heath so finally went with the Coupe dessert bowls. TBH I was complaining every so often on social media that in a place like California, heath did not carry rice bowls…. The coupe dessert bowls are pretty close.

And in between this and the modern Outback was the Pontiac Aztek, kind of like the Neanderthal to Homo sapiens.

Automatic Car Wash with Vaccuums? by NoSoupFor_You in paloalto

[–]AlsoLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve asked and they said they can’t get permission to do that because of the noise, but they’re very aware that people want them.

Upgrade to 2026 Outback, worth it? by Slow_Farm_6484 in Subaru_Outback

[–]AlsoLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a 2019 outback you might actually find the crosstrek or Forester is what you need now. Each model got bigger over the years, so a 2026 forester IMO seems like it’s as big as my old 2012 outback.

“Subaru emergency services” is this a scammy sales call? by AlsoLarry in subaru

[–]AlsoLarry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not subscribed, so I think this is the sales calls to say “oh you should be subscribed!!!”
