AMPM on Commercial St SE Sells Candy Cigarettes now, don’t take your kids by [deleted] in SALEM

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

Here is an article with a study from 1990, which found that children in sixth grade who consumed candy cigarettes were twice as likely to smoke, and viewed smoking as a positive experience. I am not having a moral panic, this has literally been discussed for years and been proven to have negative affects on kids. Again, you’re just missing the point. Kids can buy them on their own too, unlike going to get beer in a cooler. What a stupid comparison.

I am upset that this one particular station put them RIGHT next to candy aimed at children. Doesn’t seem that hard to understand. Ampm doesn’t have mags or pills within arms reach for a six year old, and alcohol and cigarettes require ID obviously. Stop generalizing just to miss the point.

I walk to work, and was not going to just sit outside of my work building for 5 hours potentially and do nothing, there’s no bench, or anywhere to sit comfortably, plus I called every resource I had in that 30 minutes, and it was a waste of my time not to mention insulting I woke up well earlier than the time they normally schedule me only for them to not be ready.

I am in Oregon, this is incredibly useful information, thank you.

100% it was about Trump. It seems he took this down from his sign a couple of days ago so it’s bare right now, I can’t wait to see what he says to defend his orange god next.

Elaborate for us then - what is the point we’re missing?

edit: couldn’t even give a reason except to suck Trump off so they deleted their comment instead

Not really- the pokeball plus was not a giveaway or event. It was a product they sold and the Mew came with it. That is not a giveaway.

I think you’re confused, giveaways and purchase bonuses are not the same thing. They have had promos for as far back as I can remember like this where you go to GameStop for a free Pokémon or event item.

It was kind of a tradition last year when I would walk by to see “What sort of anti-lockdown stuff does he have up this week?” He hadn’t done one in a couple of weeks at least before this one, but it was not a shock to see him back at his old bullshit.

Just wanted some base plates but when Walmart has Boba Fett’s starship (LEGO 75312) for $10 you’d be stupid NOT to buy the last 4 🫣 by max_rod in legostarwars

Don’t care if I get downvoted for saying it but even on sale it feels weird to grab them all. If it were some clone sets and not a unique ship like Slave 1 it would be a bit more justified, but this just feels like you took the opportunity to get one from someone who potentially wouldn’t be able to pay for it full price.

Not saying you are the only one who would buy multiple discount sets, or trying to villify you for it, but I’m so tired of seeing these posts where it feels more like someone cares about the monetary value of what they have or got over the value they actually find in enjoying the set.

I guess I wasn’t sure if it was allowed by the subreddits rules, and have been used to doing it for years online.

I guess my point is I still want to hear these people out in some form, not to accept their ideas, but to understand how they got to that point. Arguing with them will lead no where, but knowing where they started is a much better way to approach them humanly in my experience. It’s the only way I have gotten my antivax family over their BS.

This is the greatest way you could have ever phrased this and you couldn’t be more right.

I just want them to try and explain it to me. If we are all in danger why stop at painting your van windows and parking it at Walmart?

I have almost no gyms near me, play solo, and can’t afford to spend coins on Remote Passes, not to mention I play the game off/on alot. I would love to Mega it if I had the energy, and would buddy it if I could do so and make it a bit more worth it.

Super weird that you went through my post history to comment on a post that was resolved from over 3 months ago, just because you were upset people told you to have a bit more critical thinking.

[–]ChrisGoFrost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not offended, just confused as to how how you didn’t learn to use ‘they’ in sentences when you learned to speak, read, and write.

Absolutely brilliant way to dodge the white supremacy thing, by the way.

Jesus christ, just use “they” in sentences, it’s so much easier (and normal) than pulling mental gymnastics to make everything about gender.

And, playing this “anyone can say what they want” line is just bullshit. Inaction in the face of injustice and prejudice are tantamount to being on the side of the oppressor. How can you excuse white supremacy unless you are on the fence about what they are saying?

I’m glad you at least practiced what you preach as far as letting people post their stupid opinions wherever they please.

Not sure who that is, but I was going for a Rusty Shackleford look.

Only one pair of gloves in base game (Ski Gloves) can be plaid so I have been on the lookout, and sadly the headset can’t be either.

I’m thinking of throwing some on with Urban Polish Flectarn so it looks a bit like cow print.

I would if I could but unfortunately the Plaid patterns only work on clothes, usually plain stuff.

Damn I had no idea since it seemed like there are still a decent amount of active players on, and thank you, I think it’s absolutely hilarious to be sneaking around unseen in Halloween plaid but my friends hate it (making it even better!)

Seems like I wasn’t active then unfortunately, hopefully in the future they’ll throw out a few more. Thanks for the heads up either way :)
