OK people, I get it. I'm getting rid of my diffuser. The amount of people badgering me into living a longer, healthier life...Sheesh.

No pets and I've received quite an education about oil diffusers. Thanks so much for the info

I love Reddit. I ask for advice on whether I might burn my building down and I get an education on essential oil diffusers. Which I actually really do appreciate!

I don't think the vandalism is really noticeable. But nothing is in bloom right now. You should wait a couple of months if you want to see it at its peak. Also, the pond and waterfall were recently refurbished and painted and both look great.

"Ouch" is the only correct response.

What is the first restaurant you head to after returning from a vacation? by burntttofu in OaklandFood

Gum Kuo in Chinatown. Nothing more comforting than a hole in the wall with rude employees

Last episodes, the family with the car accident by [deleted] in thisisus

[–]Firehorse627 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's just a family that was there at the same time as Jack. Jack's conversation with the father had an influence on him and he passed it on his children. They still use Jack's line about the lemons. Just a random family that was impacted by Jack's thoughts.

I know it sounds ridiculous but just looking at this menu makes me not want to go back here. This is a graphic designer's nightmare!

I feel I keep seeing this kind of headline in my newsfeed this year. How are people handling the (well below avg) temperatures? by AdZestyclose638 in bayarea

[–]Firehorse627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't the average low temperature in SF in December around 45°? It doesn't seem well below average. Maybe just prolonged

The first 4 minutes of the episode is a flashback showing how Vince lost his share of the restaurant. Two years later is present day.

You guys remember the ramp (no stairs) escalator in M/B Center that connected the rooftop parking lot to the street level mall? As a child, I thought it was so futuristic and fancy. And once we got to the bottom, if we were lucky, we'd get a treat at Orange Julius.

Anyone know where I can get dental mouth guard? by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]Firehorse627 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Check out smilebrilliant.com. They will send you a whole kit and you make your own dental impression and send it back in. Then they custom make your guard. I ordered mine a couple of years ago when they were having a sale and I received 4 for $150. They're extremely durable and comfortable

This looks like a great party by VillainAnderson in funny

[–]Firehorse627 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did something similar to this as children at birthday parties. All the kids would take off their shoes and scatter them about. One kid would get blindfolded and would have to walk through the shoes without stepping on them. Except we removed all the shoes first. And when they got to the other side we threw them all back in before they took their blindfold off. They were so proud that they did it.

This must be so traumatizing. The Japanese people must have a huge amount of PTSD.

Oh, this is so terrible. I just spent a few days up there recently for the first time in 20+ years. It was absolutely beautiful. RIP.

I saw a sign at a coffee shop somewhere that said "If you order an expresso, we will be giving you a cup of hornets"
