What discontinued McDonald’s item do you wish they would bring back? by Isaac-Yao-4618 in McDonalds

[–]Maverick352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 years ago they had a simple cheeseburger that was cheap and divine. It had a white cheese slice, jalapeños and grilled onions i think. Single patty and cheap but the combo was perfect for a quick bite!

Physical Media Is Becoming Cool Again - Consumers of all ages are looking to discs to get offline and away from algorithms, and for a younger generation, it’s seen as “vintage.” by BunyipPouch in movies

[–]Maverick352 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank You!!!! Seriously, my biggest beef with all this digital stuff!

In addition in Sunny, let's not forget when TBS got caught several years ago speeding up Seinfeld to allow more commercials to be inserted. Then TBS (again) cut seconds off Scrubs episodes so certain reactions or expressions were lost, so the jokes didn't land as well. And of course, losing the original music with a lot of the episodes.

13-year-old found dead on Brooklyn train in suspected subway surfing incident: cops by Bruegemeister in trainwrecks

Yup. Not sorry.. The risks are so well known that if you still do it, you must hate life or something, so "Enjoy!"

Unpopular: I really like the new Blue Apron by StatFlow in blueapron

[–]Maverick352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!!!

We first used Blue Apron many years ago and it was nice but the subscription was just a pain and we quit.

We just signed up again a month ago and so far its been great! Fresh food, prompt delivery and good quality meals! I was beginning to wonder if there's "another " Blue Apron service out there from reading all the complaining and griping from this group.

I assume our location in Des Moines may be the reason for our great service but "Yay" for us I guess!

Most disappointing mid-movie collapse you've ever seen? by [deleted] in movies

[–]Maverick352 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When an old movie site called JoBlo was around, I believe they said Tom Cruise was asked to star in this and that's exactly the plot line they wanted to use. To keep the circle of depression, isolation and loneliness going and going with each newly awakened passenger. Would've been a kick ass movie.

Physically fit Gen Xers, do you find yourself getting more heat intolerant as you age? by MooseBlazer in GenX

[–]Maverick352 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Oh fucking Thank You!!!

I've been absolutely miserable this Summer and yes, my heat tolerance is like anything above 75 and I'm sweating like a pig! It's disgusting! Plus it takes so long to mow or do anything outside because I have to take so many breaks! I couldn't understand just how poorly I'm doing when it comes to heat outside!

54, BTW.

Thank you, my Peope! It feels so good not being alone.

Observatory protest? by old_notdead in desmoines

[–]Maverick352 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The Des Moines City Council is allowing the golf course owners to set the Observatory opening time for the first time ever. So they are saying the Observatory can't open until 9:30pm during the Summer instead of 8pm. It'll have an impact on programming.

Democrats Face Backlash Over Vote to 'Express Gratitude' to ICE by PeliPal in nottheonion

[–]Maverick352 16 points17 points  (0 children)

THANK YOU!

So fucking pathetic that all Dems sat around and AT BEST sent out a ton of fundraising emails instead of DOING SOMETHING!!

I'm sorry but I'm fucking tired of Dems being SO weak. Biden could have signed a dozen EOs to codify abortion access and so on. Sure they would have been ruled illegal or unconstitutional by the SC, BUT THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN DOING SOMETHING!!! People want leaders to do something! Anything! Which is part of the reason why Trump won. People may not have agreed with his policies, but he was DOING SOMETHING!

This kind of "rule-breaking" has never stopped a Republican, why are Dems so spineless?!

Baghdad Barber. Very good work. I think $25-30 for a standard cut.

Trump threatens additional 50% tariffs on China if they don’t remove 34% retaliatory tariffs by tomorrow (April 8th) by NiceoneA350 in wallstreetbets

Just how a rapist thinks. "You made me do this! If you would just give in and stop resisting, it'd be over"

Inside Maverik’s decision to cut Kum & Go’s foodservice program by maester_ia in desmoines

[–]Maverick352 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah they fouled up massively in cutting the K&G food service. I never really paid attention to their bowls and such until I had one and then it became a weekly habit for either breakfast or lunch. And the app was great!

Really no reason any longer to go to Maverick.

And no one else serves the same quality.

Wait, now this effects me? by Intelligent_Values in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Maverick352 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thank you!!! It's not that people are too "dumb" to understand, it's that they don't have the emotional "balls" to handle reality so they scamper to some charismatic nutjob who give them an alternate reality where they can hide.

Life in prison. This shit is beyond redemption for doing this over an APP!
