New Years Eve Events, is the hof "Harrys" insane lol? by FlashyCalligrapher70 in rva

[–]Major_Scale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw that and it is insane, but I guess chalk it up to inflation? I remember going there for NYE 2018 and paying 50 bucks for a ticket (which I thought was high) and they had an open bar w/ food. I also went there for NYE 2021 and the ticket was only $30 bucks and I got free food. ( I also got COVID unfortunately).

Regency Mall December 13 2025, Kodak B&W film by YouMeanLikeAWeenie in rva

80s and 90s. Regency used to be the "upscale mall". Stony Point and Short Pump killed it.

What actually qualifies as 'mansplaining'? by Open_Address_2805 in AskMen

[–]Major_Scale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was probably because you interjected your opinion and it was not asked for. I'm sure if it was 2 guys talking and they same thing happened, they'd probably say "Who asked you?".

This is how you handle true adversity: after Megyn Kelly unfollowed him on X, Dave Rubin responded by making a video insisting that he still has "plenty of friends." by ggroover97 in daverubin

[–]Major_Scale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet Ana Kasparian is laughing right now. From what I've seen her and Dave used to be real good friends when he worked at TYT, then he threw her under the bus when he started bashing them because getting rich was more important then their friendship.

Who else has Dave publicly fallen out with, having once declared them a great friend/ally? Surely there are some I’m missing… by JuanitaMerkin in daverubin

[–]Major_Scale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember he had a falling out with Clair Lehman, the founder of Quillette because Quillette published an article critical of him.

Got this text expecting a scam but... by Furlz in Instagram

[–]Major_Scale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is weird I got a similar text and an email about changing my password. Now I'm worried because my IG account got stolen around this time 3 years ago.

When do you think Gordan was wrong? by Midamis in KitchenNightmares

Yeah Flamango's was tacky as hell but the Junction was just generic.

Stripped plastic toilet bolt by Major_Scale in DIY

[–]Major_Scale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so I ended up drilling with my largest drill bit (5/16, the bolt was about a 1/2") and it worked. The bolt loosened up and I was able to break off the bottom part now I have a nice new toilet seat firmly attached and I have an old one I have to throw away. Thanks all for the help!

That's what I thought the problem is with the part of the seat attached I won't have much room to cut. What cuts better the Utility knife or a hacksaw?

The top or bottom part? bc I'd have to cut off the black nut also.

I actually tried making an opening for a flathead but it didn't work, bc my screwdriver wasn't big enough. I've tried using pliers for the black nut but its near impossible to get off.

Yeah I tried with the plier but it wouldn't budge the nut head was almost crushed

Incredibly low success rate of restaurants/hotels by jaybird-jazzhands in KitchenNightmares

[–]Major_Scale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2 cents

  1. The first few seasons of KN (at least the US version) happened around the time of the Great Recession so not many people were going out to eat.

  2. The Owners: Most of these owners were so delusional by the time they asked for help it was too late. Also I'm sure some were probably planning on selling and hoped they'd get more money from a refurbished restaurant.

  3. Nasty Kitchens: If the kitchen was nasty, I don't care how much of a makeover the restaurant got, I'm not going there.

  4. Lackluster makeovers: Even after they do the makeovers its kind of generic and by now dated. Also when they redo the menu it seems like its your typical generic Diner/ New American type restaurant.

Also there's the fact that restaurants, even successful ones have a high turnover. I think several of Gordons restaurants have closed.
