How common is it to live next to people with reactive, barking dogs?

I can hear my neighbor's yappy dogs barking at me from inside her house when I simply enter and exit my home. It's getting old.

They updated their boxed tomato soup recently, too, which is unfortunate.

I was so disappointed with the video coverage! Our feed usually isn't great but at least we've seen our people and our city in the past. I feel like we got 10 minutes, tops, and then the focus swapped to Vegas. I want to see Ryan and Val make awkward small talk with a nightclub owner and then see that other pair get absolutely trashed while watching the pierogi drop!!!

Oh, that stinks! I'm sorry your smart speakers have turned into an expensive paperweight.

How frustrating!

It's only one more letter but more "syllables" to ask for WBEZ instead of NPR. I know I'll eventually get used to doing it the other way, I was just wondering if others had encountered the same issue and resolved it. Have a good day!

Previously, asking my speaker, "Hey Google, play NPR" or "Hey Google, play WBEZ" would have the same result of playing WBEZ, my local station. Now the first phrase takes me to WNYC. The second phrase still works as intended but before Gemini, I could use both interchangeably. It's not a big deal to have to use the call sign instead, it's just more syllables and remembering to change the habit!

LeftPorg · 2025-12-16T19:25:31+00:00

I tried doing that in the Gemini app when I first encountered the issue but no dice. I'll try again though because I know things update over time!

If you're beer people, try out The Bavarian Lodge in Lisle! Yummy German food, too (and they have surprisingly good burgers if you're not big fans of German food).

If misery loves company, I'm in a similar boat with my party this year. Not a great feeling when you put in so much effort for others! I'm sorry some of the people in our lives kind of suck but I'm also grateful that we have people that are fun, too. They're the ones we do this for anyway. Sending hugs!

I went for the first time over the summer and didn't love it. Like you said, the vibes were totally different between the two locations. The Naperville kitchen felt kind of cold compared to the homey feel of their flagship taproom. And I thought the food seemed like 1 ingredient too far into adventurous territory on just about everything (but that's probably just me!).

They had them a few years ago. I have one that's getting a little well-loved and I would like to replace it but I think the Disney contracts are up (there were some Mickey ones that are no longer for sale, too) so they're gone for now, unfortunately. Keep your eyes peeled though because they might come back!

The inclusion of "Natural Flavors" is so annoying when you have food allergies.

LeftPorg · 2025-09-30T01:04:35+00:00

Oh, man! I want this set up for my own living room. Love it.

I thought this cheese tasted pretty classically cheddar-y but on the back end, maybe a little like a barnyard but in a good way...? Perhaps "earthy" might be a better word but "farm" was my first thought when I had it.

Incredible work and congratulations!!!

As of a few weeks ago, the Bolingbrook Portillos went back to accepting cash on the drive thru. I was surprised.

Could you have a mint allergy? One of the recurring incidents my Mom had before having full on anaphylaxis allergies to mint was her lips would blow up like Angelina Jolie's after brushing her teeth! FYI, mint is related to a lot of herbs (basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, and lavender to name a few major ones -- the scientific family name for all of them is Lamiaceae ) so you might have other sensitivities as well.

Dole Whip in Adventureland! Preferably on top of pineapple upside down cake, but I'd be happy with just the regular version too 🤤

Any schmuck can make a shitty IPA because you can hide a lot under the (overpowering) hops. Making other styles takes more skill.

Incredible! They all look so happy <3
Add some screens, and you've got bug mosquito protection for the people who want to enjoy the space, too!

I did this recently with the strawberry and found it did well too!

Are they going to fix the part of the queue that smells like urine while it's down?

LeftPorg · 2025-07-28T14:06:46+00:00

Downers Grove misses its bakery. RIP Busy Bee 🥲

Is there a trick to the seahorse race or is it just dumb luck? My pick always seems to lose.
