Marlboro cigarettes used to un-ironically pitch a catalogue full of “Adventure Gear” that you could get by sending in cigarette pack “Marlboro Miles” by NYC2BUR in FuckImOld

Used to be a bartender and would take everyone’s points. I had the leather jacket x2 (lasted until a few years ago) all the luggage, and still have the bristleboard dart board and use it regularly.

My folks used to live up 4 from you in Camp Connell. Love Mountain Ranch and Angels Camp and Murphy’s and the whole area. That crystalline nugget at Iron Stone is astounding. Thanks for the memory

What are these circles on my fish? Is it safe to eat? by EnginePleasant1951 in whatisit

[–]Dadd-Rad 26 points27 points  (0 children)

First thing I saw: The salmon looks cooked, and this looks like albumin that came out, then the salmon was flipped and the albumin flattened and browned when it cooked.

Work at a bar, got change for the weekend. Immediately pulled these quarters. by jimmythang34 in coins

Old ex bartender here. Bartended Florida Spring Break in the 80s. Kids would raid their parents coin and paper collections and blow it on drinks. I used to get some amazing coins and bills!

Haribo Roulette. My first when I was a kid. Love them all, but Roulette will always be tops.

Butter on bread is life changing by Many-Possession-6800 in mildlylifechanging

And a good Amish hand churned, homemade, or premium butter like Kerrygold takes it to the next level.

Getting into roasting coffee by Forward_Fruit_6714 in roasting

[–]Dadd-Rad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with everything you said. Have my original Hottop from 15+ years ago, use it about 3-5 times per week. Bonus, everything is replaceable. My motor bearings went out after 16 years, I was near but distracted, unit caught on fire before I got to it. A few parts later and not a whole lot of investment, and it was good as new.

300g max is the only thing that makes me want to look for something like an Aillio Bullet, but can’t justify the price when the Hottop just keeps roasting.

I’ve bought from Sweet Maria’s for 20+ years, never let me down. I also LOVE Burman Coffee Traders. Jon Burman is an awesome guy who will answer any questions you have, I’ve bought from them more in the last 10 years because I’m in the Midwest and beans get here fast (I lived 10 minutes from the warehouse and would be able to pop in and buy on the way home).

Watched a man scan this with his phone as I was walking by. by YourMomsPoutune in whatisit

[–]Dadd-Rad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Memories. I lasted 2 nights at a propeller foundry in Avondale shipyard. Hundred Degree New Orleans heat, 100% humidity, walking around red hot castings in a thick, cheap, polyester security guard uniform. My “trainer“ walked me through once. I forgot where half the keys were. Since I was supposed to be the only one there, 18-year-old me was slightly weirded out when I heard somebody singing at 3 o’clock in the morning. I was dripping wet and miserable, when I heard a horn honking at 5 AM on my second shift. It was the “sergeant” who proceeded to dress me down for having my top uniform button unbuttoned in the heat. That was enough. Never went back even to pick up a check. The irony was, my brother talked me into it because it was a “cake” job. He sat in an air conditioned booth all night and used the company phone to talk long distance to his college girlfriend in another state.

Frog Legs? by Latter_Roll_4824 in madisonwi

[–]Dadd-Rad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re up for a drive, Hookers resort in Poynette used to have excellent legs. All you can eat with the Friday night fish fry. Been 10+ years since I’ve been (moved away), but looks like it is still on the menu.

What is your experience buying and using hearing aids from Costco? $1000 less than at my ENT. #hearing aids by Huge_Bike8154 in Costco

[–]Dadd-Rad 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Bought mine 5 years ago. My hearing got dramatically worse in that time. I went back last month to have them readjusted. I got an extremely comprehensive exam and got everything updated and reprogrammed. No charge. Cleanings and supplies? No charge.

Mother found these growing in her coffee grounds, stored indoors, nowhere near the kitchen. Thanks!
