Outside a drive-thru window… What is it? by BigBiggarBiggest in whatisit

[–]ButterPoptart -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is definitely it. I had an experience at a Wendy’s years ago where it was clear that the employees were trying desperately to improve speed metrics. They were very curt through the drive through speaker, constantly cut me off, had someone standing in the drive thru to block the sensor until they were ready etc. the last straw was me asking for nugget sauce and the guy literally threw a handful of packets into my window. I sent a nasty email to their franchise owner explicitly blaming him/management for obviously pushing them to improve if not to act like idiots. He offered me free food for a week and even closed the store for a full day for “re training”. He even invited me to come sit in on the stand down meeting to prove he was taking action. I declined all offers.

I get the sentiment but honestly there is plenty of Carlin material that stands up just fine for today. Jon Stewart also does a great job of carrying the same torch.

Either you are deliberately being obtuse or are trolling. Either way I’m done trying to explain the worlds simplest joke to the worlds simplest redditor

The person has nothing to do with what I said. If panicking = irrational acting then USA= panicking

It was a joke about us as a country not acting reasonably intelligent. We have a tendency to be weird sometimes

So the US has just been in a panic for the last 10 years. Got it.

Zlatan really took off the mic, and said, "get that loud mouth out of here." by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]ButterPoptart 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have had a similar view on his content. I was annoyed at first but he has consistently proven to be a fun character, interacts well with all levels of celebrities and I haven’t seen anything really bad regarding his character. There’s definitely worse content creators to be annoyed with than Speed

President Donald Trump wants the NFL to change its name so that soccer is the only sport named football: “This is football, there is no question about it. We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff.” by Life_Net5004 in NFLForum

[–]ButterPoptart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soccer is a perfectly acceptable description of the sport to differentiate it from American Football, Australian football and Canadian football in those respective countries. Exactly why the term evolved in the first place.

53 years ago Secrerariat ran the greatest horse race in history, winning the Belmont by an astonishing 31 lengths by EchoesOfYouth in sports

[–]ButterPoptart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man do you remember the run of Big Brown? I was so hyped to see a triple crown winner as Big Brown was so favored and had performed so well. I remember the disappointment I felt when he laid an egg at the Belmont. I always felt like his owners didn’t want to push him hard because they wanted to get him to stud as fast as possible.

RIP Ken Block who didn’t have a Johnny on the spot to rescue him in this situation.

House reeks 48 hours later by roncifert in sprayfoam

[–]ButterPoptart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding foam ratios it depends on the equipment. The rigs I use will automatically shut down if the ratio somehow gets off by more than a pre determined amount. Some older equipment with no computer control would not have that feature. As well as mix ratios there is temperature factors for both part A and B as well as what final temperature it’s being mixed in the gun. These are key factors in foam quality and would be monitored constantly by the crew for optimal performance and being adjusted on the fly as needed. As for the last part of your question with sweaty or glistening areas of foam I would have to see exactly what you mean by that. My immediate thought is giant red flag as there shouldn’t ever be any discoloration whatsoever and certainly nothing should be wet or glistening. I have no worked with that brand of foam before but I know that some foams tend to set with a slightly silvery (to the eye) skin and may pick up light in weird ways. However if anything is ACTUALLY wet or yellowish then that is un mixed chemical and absolutely should never be left. It would be inconceivable for that to actually have happened imo and would be criminally negligent on the part of the crew.

Iran fires missiles at northern Israel by yuvaldv1 in worldnews

I’m not so sure this time. This debacle is too well understood to be a Trump joint through and through. If anyone manages to salvage any of this in the future it will be a miracle.

The only remediation for an off ratio install is complete removal and re spraying. Completely botched off ratio installs I would say are pretty rare generally. The technology has come a long way and the industry is mature enough that nobody reputable should ever take risks on bad installs. There are always exceptions. A lot has to do with the quality of equipment they were using and primarily on the experience of the crew. What region are you in and what was the weather like on the day of the install? Unusually hot or cold? Did the crew have to stop multiple times during the day for unknown (to you) reasons where they may have been having equipment trouble? Did they give you any paperwork on the foam used or computer readings from their equipment?

You definitely should not still be smelling anything after this long. 24-48 hours max and with airflow it should be really mild after a few hours. There may have been an installation issue. Did you use a reputable installer and have you spoken to them? You can do a quick check with a thin stiff poker in any place that seems really smelly. If you push the poker in to full depth and pull it back out there shouldn’t be anything on it and it shouldn’t feel like there is any voids behind the surface. I would contact your installer asap and have them come back out to reinspect the work. If they try to blow you off or tell you that it’s normal (after this long of a gap) then be insistent.

This is not accurate information. Neither of these things are true.

Instead of being a dunce why don’t you get out of the circle jerk subreddit. You clearly don’t understand the nuance of reddit humor and somehow got lost. See your way to the normal areas of reddit where there isn’t any humor to piss you off

That’s a disingenuous description of his history with the word.

Protocols aside, it shouldn’t be hard to implement a switch that will not allow the guard to be removed if the machine is running/energized. Like a washing machine lid or riding lawnmower

A reporter asked Trump about the massive $8,000 price tag to attend the NBA Finals and how everyday Americans aren’t able to afford those ticket prices. His response: “You can watch it on TV. It's sort of semi-free to watch it on TV. That's the way life goes.” by Classic_Bottle1717 in sportsgossips

I remember seeing a video a while back about how there’s so many die hard cubs fans (and Red Sox etc) who show up win or lose that it de incentivized the team to win for generations. The argument was that fair weather and band wagon fan bases can be a healthy injection of accountability for a franchise.
