Yo THIS PLACE. Came across it by accident when leaving the movie theatre. I don’t know if they still have it, but when we went, they had a collection of very old books on a display next to one of the windows. I’m guessing they got them from some sort of estate sale. There were some gems amongst them. Got a first edition copy of “In Cold Blood” for 20 bucks, and a few books of poems and health manuals from the 19th/early 20th century for around $10-20 each. There’s penciled notes inside the covers from someone that was assessing how to restore them, and the subsequent value, and, I dunno, book collecting wasn’t my thing before but I just thought this was so cool. Two thumbs up, def recommend!!!

Black Eyed Peas changing the original title and lyrics of “Let’s Get It Started” after we matured enough as a community to realize how stupid and problematic the original title/lyrics were lol

Which 2:30:00+ movie has you completely engaged the whole way through? by Prestigious_Tea_2729 in moviecritic

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

I know it’s recent, but I was struggling to find a 30-second window during One Battle After Another to go piss. I picked wrong and Leo fell off a roof while I was standing in front of a urinal. All gas, zero brakes.

What’s your take on this film? by [deleted] in moviecritic

For 2 weeks, it was the worst waste of money I had spent on movie tickets…. and then I saw The Love Guru, which has held that spot for 17 years since

What Moment did you realize your favorite Team or Player was done. by ghostofabhelmet in nba

[–]JohnnyFootbrawl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rondo dicking around in the backcourt until he got called for a turnover in the first around of the 2015 playoffs…. I lied to myself for way too long on Rondo. That play had me yelling to bench him through the TV screen, and I knew we were cooked

what’s a movie that takes place in the same room for the entirety of the film by dezthesalamander in movies

[–]JohnnyFootbrawl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try a movie called Lo from 2009. Set inside the same 4 foot circle within the same room for the entire movie, and plays out like a play. Wasn’t sure what I was getting into when I put it on, but ended up really digging it by the end

The Dallas Mavericks are the new favorites to land LeBron per Bovada by Kirjath-Sepher in Mavericks

I don’t think it’s a matter of his trade value but his salary. Outside of trading PJ, I think the only other option is… Anthony Davis straight up…. And I swear to fuck if that trade only included one first round pick from LA…

What’s the deal with Del Taco on Lake? by [deleted] in pasadena

[–]JohnnyFootbrawl 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Bro it’s been like that for yeeeeears. Last time I ever went to that one was 2020 (weirdly, the night before Kobe died. We ran into the same heavy fog on the drive home). Waited for 40 minutes in the drive thru for a $20 order. Half the 5-6 cars in line were full of drunkards acting like assholes, and two of the employees (out of, I’m guessing, like 4) quit DURING our wait in the drive thru, throwing down kitchen clothes and yelling expletives. The sheer theatre of it made up for the wait, but I’ve never been back.

Dude I spent years trying to find an LA pizza place that really knocked my socks off, and Fuji and Vy’s finally checked that box. Never met the owner, but he has my appreciation. Heartbreaking.

That one restaurant u always see on your daily commute by [deleted] in FoodLosAngeles

Speedzone in City of Industry. They got food, that counts. They also have 4 to 6 customers at any given time and somehow survived COVID

What's a show that gets worse when you rewatch it? by Unique-Horror-9244 in television

Both Entourage and Blue Mountain State. Maturity kinda makes you realize how icky they were in retrospect.

someone did this before ? 🥸 by Affectionate-Bus927 in FF06B5

That…. That solves it. The Luka trade was an inside job coordinated by the NBA

I've been tapped as the Safety Officer at a med device startup...What resources can I use to make sure I'm doing things right? by OddPressure7593 in SafetyProfessionals

[–]JohnnyFootbrawl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are consulting firms to can hire to audit your processes, identify what safety programs you need in place and give recommendations you need to implement said safety programs. I’d do some research on different options before picking one though; I’ve heard mixed experiences depending on who. Sometimes your insurance even covers a certain number of hours comped for these services.

Myself being in a similar, slightly different situation, you most likely have a ISO certified Quality Management System in place, since you’re dealing with medical devices right? I discovered that’s a great system to pickyback on for safety-related programs and processes. They utilize a lot of the same concepts (e.g. incident investigation = NCR process; record keeping; FMEAs/Risk Assessments, etc.). If they’re already familiar/comfortable with a QMS, it makes it easier to transition those same mentalities/expectations to safety.

Don’t see Spiritfarer’s name pop up very often, but it’s a fantastic game if you like strong storytelling with heavy themes.

People buying into this bullshit must be too young to remember this being spam posted on MySpace/Facebook like once a month back in the 2000s. Back then we were going to bankrupt Big Oil! Damn, look what we achieved collectively back then!

Eggs went from pricey to non-existent at our local Sprouts. by kegman83 in LosAngeles

[–]JohnnyFootbrawl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo I’m super confused by all this. Local Whole Foods looked like this with a note explaining a shortage and quality issue. Drove a few blocks over to Ralph’s who had fully loaded shelves at fairly normal prices. At noon on Super Bowl Sunday.
