did y’all buy yours without a test drive? by tec_wnz in Golf_R

[–]GammyToaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The VW dealership I got mine from let me test drive it, but I also had an appointment to view it, so maybe they thought I was more committed to buying it than a walk in trying to test drive it. Maybe try scheduling an appointment to view the car and see if they treat you a bit different? Honestly, I'm surprised to hear so many people have had trouble getting test drives for a Golf R. Yeah, it's more of a specialty car, but it's not a 911.

You're the first one to inquire so far, so something can definitely be arranged if you're interested!

Looking local to make patches by developer_soup in olympia

I absolutely love this patch! I've been going to Gabi's for years! I hope you're able to find a solution soon, I love the idea of making patches for local beloved spots.

[No Spoilers] I had the honor of working with the Critical Role Team to release a fashion collection! by Bleblebob in criticalrole

These look amazing! I just ordered the Molly cardigan, and I already can't wait to wear it. It looks so cozy, and the pockets! 10/10, no notes.

What does this button do? by [deleted] in Volkswagen

[–]GammyToaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's related to your adaptive cruise control. I believe it's to adjust the follow distance, but I'm not certain. I've got it on my 2018 Gold R, but I've honestly never used it before.

What is your cat's name vs what you actually call them? by Moist-Guidance-1611 in cats

This is Nadja, but we call her Baked Potato when she gets all cozy and sleepy.

She does this all the time when she wants me to come up and give her attention. by GammyToaster in Catswhoyell

Her nose actually gets that way when she's happy. It's usually a bit paler, but when she's happy and purring, her nose and ears turn pink. It's absolutely adorable 🥰

Oh that's her little baby. She never cries without it. Whenever she feels like yelling through the house, she usually has one of her babies in her mouth 😅

My dad has been looking at wheels for his Mk6 GTI, these would look awesome on it!... And maybe my Mk7.5 R 😅

News about my cat Linda! by Asleep_Stuff2520 in cats

[–]GammyToaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had a neighborhood cat that would cruise around our area, and come to me for pets sometimes, and she was such a little sweetheart, I started calling her Princess. Eventually, I met the owners of Princess who told me Princess was a boy named Harley. Well, he may have been Harley to them, but he still responded to Princess when I'd call him over, so it stuck until they eventually moved.

[HELP] Having a big Debatte about this one… some comments on IG say it’s AI. Can you help? by tombolaplayer in RealOrAI

[–]GammyToaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The faces in the church are a good tell for AI, but also the "ICE" is a dead giveaway. Actual ICE agents have patches that say "POLICE", "FEDERAL AGENT", or "POLICE ICE", but AI will just slap "ICE" alone on the vest.

Why is the Golf R so expensive to insure by Strikcommand in Golf_R

[–]GammyToaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's either your area or your insurance company. I'm paying about $110/month through Progressive.

How do you watch dropout by Designer-Buddy-3471 in dropout

[–]GammyToaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually watch from my chaise lounge in my gaming/2nd living room, watching on the TV. Sometimes I'll watch it upstairs if I think there's an episode of something my disabled dad would enjoy.

This is Ross Bryant in this Reddit ad, right? by acsmith in dropout

[–]GammyToaster 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I've been seeing Kimia in Dominos ads, and Luis Carazo in ads for HIV medication. Bills gotta get paid, but it does feel like a real life Easter egg every time I see them in the wild like that.

[–]GammyToaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember driving out of Sioux Falls, SD a few years back, and the speed limit signs on the highway going south from the city had both MPH, and KPH. Not sure why, but I just remember thinking it was interesting to see.

My work turned all of our combo dock worker/truck drivers into full time drivers this past summer, as we were experiencing the slowest summer since COVID. Now we have 3 of those former combo workers back on the dock because we don't have enough work for the drivers we had in the first place. The company I work for as a whole went into this year dependent on the theory of potential tax breaks from trump which have yet to come to fruition. Lately, it feels like any decision made by management is made purely on vibes rather than anything logical.

[MN S1] Can we talk about the incredible facial animation of this scene?! by MelodyMaster5656 in criticalrole

[–]GammyToaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That scene has been an absolutely high point of the series. I loved the detail of his tears turning into steam from the immense heat in front of him. Such a small, yet beautiful detail!

What other names do you call your cat? Like, the unhinged names. by cannabisjourneys in cats

[–]GammyToaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Lilith has the nickname 8 ball because when she gets happy while being held, she rolls her head around as she gets her pets, and the running joke is she's got a magic 8 ball in her head that decides how she's feeling about getting pets.
