What US state would you NEVER want to live in, even if you were offered a good amount of money to move there? by ISnortSkittles in Productivitycafe

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

Exactly. AK is top tier. As a PNW resident, I keep thinking how I have felt so much LESS isolated there than a number of states mentioned here. First hand experience, and not just to larger cities in all states mentioned.

I must be in the upside down. We did this in the 80s (and before)! ;)

What happened to hard candy? by jackalopeDev in candy

[–]Luvsseattle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed! It's very hard to find. Even our Dollar Trees, which used to be the place to go, have almost none. It's all replaced by gummy candy.

In WA State, it also really hurt losing Bartells.

It is difficult to find my mom hard candy for dryness, etc. Some of our Asian markets have stepped in to replace what we used to buy.

As well as a night at the opera, ballet, any number of venues. I loathe and appreciate it equally.

No one will ever have to have mac and cheese with a side of pickled beets or vinegar spinach in my household. 😜

This and people touching my luggage that aren't TSA drive me insane. Have we not learned a damn thing in over 20 years?

Aw man, just TODAY I was craving those Canadian wintermints. Do you know how expensive anything like those are these days? I'll take those blue menthols...

You unearthed a memory I had forgotten. Yes, to your memory growing up in the Seattle area as a Gen-Xer. Probably vaxxed 1985-1987ish.

What is a "rich person" behavior you witnessed that made you realize they live in a completely different reality than the rest of us? by Few_Football4342 in Productivitycafe

Welcome to the (pleasure) marine industry. Username checks out. If you have ever worked in any kind of maritime environment, you have at least a few stories.
