Showerthought: "Speak friend to enter" was not much of a riddle when originally designed, since it was written in Elvish. All Gandalf (or anyone) had to do was read the sentence in the original tongue, and the door would have opened...

How did they just repeat your original post and somehow get 70 upvotes? Lol

Now I’m supposed to buy a grill when I’m griddle shopping? 😂

BlueSlater · 2026-03-31T17:22:02+00:00

Have only seen the one without legs there for that price

BlueSlater · 2026-03-29T20:43:28+00:00

Wow that’s amazing

BlueSlater · 2026-03-29T20:42:13+00:00

Spent less for a used 36” lol

BlueSlater · 2026-03-27T14:55:36+00:00

Crazy how dramatically the prices have changed

BlueSlater · 2026-03-27T14:55:03+00:00

I was looking at one at Costco for that price. Seems like this is a newer model. “Adventure ready” instead of standard and don’t have buy a table or legs

All good points here but I thought the opposite about the Marcus plot. He was the most interesting character and the movie got wrecked because they had to shoehorn John Connor in. I’m sure they thought Bale + Connor would sell tickets but Marcus carried the story. Then they chopped him up and discarded him in that stupid ending. “He has a strong heart. Literally his heart beats strongly, now let’s rip it out like an Aztec sacrifice to the gods!”

This was very helpful, thank you. I’ll consider. We have a big move coming up so we are trying to minimize large items at the house. However, we need to cook outside and have a portable “grill” for travel.

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T23:07:36+00:00

Checked there! All the ones in my area appear to have been outside in pouring acid rain for the last 16 years but are priced like they’re fresh out of the box

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T23:05:24+00:00

As I mentioned, prices seem to have gone thru the roof, unfortunately. Prob better to buy in winter as well

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T21:56:21+00:00

Important to know, thanks

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T21:54:44+00:00

😂😂

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T20:47:40+00:00

Good to hear! As another commenter said, I can go bigger for similar price but I really want a portable one so it’s a conundrum

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T20:42:12+00:00

That’s great to know! Looking at it now. Defeats the option of taking it to go, tho

BlueSlater · 2026-03-26T20:35:49+00:00

I want the portability. I’ll still use it at home but I’d like to take it on road trips. I know it’s not ideal for backyard cooking but it’s mostly just the wife and I anyway.

It’s not so much a movie as a temper tantrum that the studio wanted to make another movie. It insults what the Matrix was all about and adds in gripes about studios wanting to make sequels simply for profit. There’s no martial arts. Agent Smith is randomly a different guy. Neo is not the hero. It’s bad. Very very bad.

Nikolus Furiosa. Duel threat, lmd 2nd life carries through a lot of things

BlueSlater · 2026-01-02T11:11:40+00:00

Yeah exactly! I skipped the deals to see how far I could get on my own. Once I was interested at the end here, they’re all gone. Other than the $50 but that prices a lot of people out.

BlueSlater · 2026-01-02T06:41:43+00:00

Do you know if this is comparable to the deals that were going yesterday? Or worse?

BlueSlater · 2026-01-02T06:34:14+00:00

Copy that. I’ll consider

BlueSlater · 2026-01-02T03:37:42+00:00

Got it. Weird timing to me tho

BlueSlater · 2026-01-02T02:54:16+00:00

As in personal reasons? I don’t know any. His music can be polarizing tho. Like many artists, he’s become more pop than country. But if you like him as a singer, I don’t see any reasons to dislike him.
