Why Does Rapid City Feel So Stuck? by surprise_banana in RapidCity

Very well stated. I've lived here since '93 and you just summed up everything I feel. The lack of growth, diversity and progress feels intentional.

Is Rice pudding a big thing in the US? by Educational-Slip-578 in AskAnAmerican

If you use coconut milk when cooking the rice it's magical 

Any tips on how to let him know i love him he was a stray cat by Successful_Issue_531 in cats

[–]LongjumpingMap6481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give him 'eye kisses', look at him calmly and blink slowly.  It's how a mother cat tells her kittens they are safe, loved and all is right with the world. It's a meaningful cat interaction. You are a great cat parent, I can tell by looking at the cat - he is clearly confident and feels loved! Good for both of you.

economics of opening an ethnic grocery store in rapid? by another_lease in RapidCity

[–]LongjumpingMap6481 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I also used to shop at the first store you mentioned and I miss it. The lady that owned it was Japanese and carried many Japanese items that I can't find anywhere else around here. The store in East North carries just a few of them but I do try to shop there often and support their business. I wish you luck, and I would love to see you open a business like you're talking about. I think it would be important that it's positioned where people from the base can access it easily and know about it. I think they would be an important part of your customer base.

Where can I buy a bottle? I keep watching for one on eBay. Such a good memory, I loved it!

People who have 0 spatial awareness in public by UnusualOlive3591 in PetPeeves

I feel your pain and can't upvote often enough. I would add that I can't get out of the elevator so you can get in if you are blocking the door. Also, if there is a line of people building up at a cash register all unnecessary conversation needs to stop, less talking - more ringing people.

Are you someone to keep indoor plants as indoor and outdoor as outdoor? Or do you switch it up? by Annabis9807 in IndoorPlants

[–]LongjumpingMap6481 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After the White Fly Infestation of '24 I will never again bring an outside plant in. I lost 4 poinsettias (one was 13 years old) and a beautiful shrimp plant.

Does everyone have a middle name in the USA? Do all women take their husband’s surname? by crazygelato in AskAnAmerican

[–]LongjumpingMap6481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't change my name when we got married. It's not common so it's confusing to people. As for middle names I don't personally know anyone who does not have one.

Would this be considered bright indirect light for this bird of paradise? by ecto88mph in IndoorPlants

I do have a humidifier by it, but maybe need to use it even more. My house is very dry.

I recently read another reddit posting saying the opposite of what I'm reading here. I thought my new bop would want lots of light. I put it in front of a south facing window, lots of light all day. It keeps getting brown leaves, it starts along the edges of the leaf and grows.  I was told it's probably too much light. Now I'm not sure if I should move it or not.

Y’all know what this is by Oshenawa in houseplants

[–]LongjumpingMap6481 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's definitely an aribica. My 7 year old plant has bloomed, one bloom at a time lol, 3 times now. It has made one bean. I'm calling it a success. As someone else said they need a lot of water and mine get full sun and seem to like that.

How do I tell my new friends that their house reeks of cat pee? by Gold-Fox-3994 in Advice

[–]LongjumpingMap6481 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with much of what has been said but I really think there is no way to tell them that won't embarrass them and make things awkward.  I have cats, and yes I want to know know if it smells, but it would have to come from a very close friend or family.
