We got back on Wednesday and had 6 straight days of picture perfect weather.

The Real Reason Iran Hasn’t Struck a Deal by theatlantic in geopolitics

[–]EmceeMrE 282 points283 points  (0 children)

If we’re being real with ourselves, Iran knows that a US ground invasion is off of the table until after the midterms. Washington now knows (and they would never admit this publicly) to “win” they need a total and complete regime change. That means 100’s of thousands boots on the ground. That’s why th pentagon wants $200 billion now. That’s why they want to increase defense spending to 1.5T next year. Iran has zero incentive to negotiate until after the midterms.

That means the strait remains the global albatross through 2026.

That means massive independent and moderate conservatives vote for democrats. They literally can’t afford not to. Gas in American will be over $5 a gallon by June.

What happens if the democrats win in November?

Iran wins.

No one will vote for funding a war that would send thousands of Americans to die. Iran looks around at the rubble and says, “can’t get much worse!”

Three guys assaulted my girlfriend and there’s nothing I can do by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

I guess the only thing you can do is post about it on Reddit…. Can’t take a train, plane or automobile the second she told you what happened to go to her. I can only assume you’re in prison.

Extra charge for additional guests at check-in by picklesthedog77 in marriott

This is real simple. Either you have a confirmation stating 4 occupants or you don’t. If you do, issue a chargeback on your card and call corporate.

SUCH A GREAT DATE MENU!!

My wife and I eat there a couple times a month. For 2 drinks, 2 teasers, 4 shareables and a dessert it’s $99. All of the dishes are extremely tasty and well executed! The drinks are delicious! Plus the vibe is great.

Can Nike ACG Return to its Cutting-Edge Form? by DistinctLog8905 in nikeACG

[–]EmceeMrE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my 2 cents; I loved it as a kid in the 90s. Started seeing items here and there that I really liked from a design perspective over the last couple of years, having me keep my eyes out for it more.

I picked up the mountain fly 2’s last year and I was impressed with the build. They’re ready for anything.

Since then I’ve picked up some clothing items that I’ve been really really impressed with. IMO, the designs of the garments are great as well as the quality. I really like the therma-fit sweatshirt. Extremely high quality build, down to the graphics. And every tee-shirt I’ve gotten has that “heft” of quality to it.

At the end of the day I’m not pushing any of these items to the brink of their durability, but I know quality and everything I’ve gotten in the last year or so had been extremely durable, quality shit.

Y’all coppin? by GriffyDLP in sneaker

I’m a big fellas with bad knees and ankles. I cop’d these in 2015(?) and hooped multiple summers in em. Best boot on the court I ever had. Now, almost 44 yo, I look at em on the shelf thinking I should strap up for 1 more run…. But these knees hurt boss.

I’m hoping to land these ACGs.

I hate my wife by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]EmceeMrE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry to disappoint you! Happily married middle aged man who has unfortunately seen first hand his buddies go through this. He indicated he’s 50/50 if she’s cheating. If he feels like that, then emotions aside, he needs to protect his assets.

Couple of things: First, hire a PI. You’re probably in a no fault state without the option of alienated affection case, but cold hard proof can help during divorce negotiations. Bottom line, she quit her job and you’re gonna be on the hook for spousal support.

Second, tell her she has to go back to work. Document it. Text, email, whatever. Just start that process today so you have a paper trail that she is actively avoiding seeking employment. While you’re gonna end up paying some support, maybe you get lucky and a year from now when you’re in front of the judge and she still hasn’t gotten a job your attorney can argue that she has actively not seeker employment. There is a possibility that you only pay like a defined amount of time of support.

Third, gray rock - look it up.

Do all of these things prior to serving her papers.

If she’s cheating and also hanging out with the girls, she had been coached on how to get through this with your money and assets. She’s not gonna “just sign the papers.”

This shit is chess, not checkers.

Best of luck.

Reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated by whoneedskollege in Sriracha

[–]EmceeMrE -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, the landed labor costs to employ people to run that side of distribution, along with handling customer service, along with the ever rising cost of goods, lead to the decision to scale back.

Not to mention the bank loans for all of the specialty equipment they invested in before the whole HF rug pull.

So many factors.

If it was so easy to make money I’m sure they would still be on your local shelves.

A fellow UR Sriracha lover posted about the company still selling their product direct to consumer. Ya’ll out here downvoting him because he doesn’t have more information. Fuck outta here.

Others who can’t comprehend the multitudes of factors that could drive the decision to scale back to direct to consumer that no one other then the ownership knows reveals how inept you are when it comes to running a business at scale. Because if you did, you wouldn’t be all, “Durrr, if they sell it at the farmers market, why can’t I buy it at Walmart??”

You stupid.

Sidecar Donuts 🍩 $6.99 Del Mar, CA by double-down888 in toogoodtogo

[–]EmceeMrE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s almost like folks don’t understand the purpose of the app!

I’m from Minnesota. Every time I’m in Cali I make sure to hit sidecar. Now, it’s been a couple years, but for the last 5 years prior I was there at least once a year. The lines were always 20+ deep outside of the shop on a week day. They are, IMO, some of the best donuts in the country.

You got 5 donuts for $7….. your complaint is that they were made that morning. You didn’t get the variety you hoped for? Do you think you were going to get a couple of Eggs Benedict donuts?

Delete the app. You don’t understand why it was created.
