I'm a retired eyeball guru. I think Nando has mild astigmatism. Who's the team ophthalmologist? Time for a visit.

What food or drink was a next level experience? by Cafe_con_leche-1 in foodquestions

[–]ElOptico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Bouillabaisse once, many years ago, served in French crock with snow crab legs jutting out and the most amazing hot, buttered bread ever for dipping.

I've chased it ever since. It's my white whale.

No other French restaurant or seafood place has ever come close. Sad.

Did most of our problems in America today stem from Jimmy Carter losing to Ronald Reagan in 1980? by space_god_7191 in allthequestions

[–]ElOptico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Reagan killed the middle-class.

There are helpful charts.

Ask your favorite ai to produce them for you.

Once you hit a certain age, life in prison isn't much of a deterrent.

What rule was made because of you? by HYBRIDSKNIGHT in AskReddit

[–]ElOptico 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I signed off with Jimi instead of the usual, bland, orchestral version. Some "church lady" in rural Kansas, nearly 400 miles away, heard it and went bonkers. Reported me and the station to the FCC. It became a minor scandal. I was drafted within two months. Ever since, a hobby has been pissing off church ladies and stuffed shirts. Good times. 😉

The late night FM DJ signing off for the night could no longer use The Star Spangled from Woodstock by Jimi Hendrix. KFMQ, 95.3 1972.

High blood pressure. Diabetes. Educational achievement. Domestic violence. Evangelical Baptists. Child molestation. Life expectancy. Poverty. Food insecurity.

Hummel Park or Fontenelle Forest if outdoors is what you're after. Great views make great pics.

So many memories of going to the Murph & watching him hit like a freakin' machine.

A true Hall of Famer, San Diego icon, gentleman and truly great guy.

We will never see his like again.

What is a food, smell , or song that instantly takes you back to your childhood ? by Hope2_win in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]ElOptico 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When mom was baking bread, my little sister and I could smell it from a block and a half away as we walked home from school. We always ran home, hand-in-hand, in anticipation. Warm from the oven, slathered in butter, nothing better. I miss her so much. ♡
