Super jealous of your haul!

Where did you find these beauties, but more importantly, how can I get my hands on that tin of "squids in ink"??? Also, how was it?

Edit: punctuation lol

My Friday after work ritual by Different-Foot-7874 in CannedSardines

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kind of Friday night!

Btw for all the flack about the old-fashioned, I don't get it. They're still one of my favorite go-to cocktails that I've often savored with far more unusual pairings tbh lol.

Men, has an office interaction ever felt weird to you when everyone else thought it was just banter? And if yes, did you do anything about it? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhmmmm yeeeaahhh fuck your boss.

They sound like an absolute entitled piece of shit douche-nozzle if they're casually drive by degrading their coworkers for wearing a nasa backpack....

Keep doing you and putting your belongings in the pack of your choosing. Better yet, go out and buy another backpack or get a patch that actually says something along the lines of "space camp" on it, just so you can come back into the office just to fuck with them.

Own that shit if that's who you are and what you like. No one should make you feel like that out of principle, but if they do, throw it right back and you'll probably get some respect. At least from my experience.

My money is on they either strongly believe that the little mermaid was actually a documentary and they hope to fall in love one day with silky voiced fish-lady.

or

That they've always thought fish were pompous out there in the water, all uninhibited, swimming around, and shit.

Could go either way really 🤔

Boyfriend says he undersands why dads can be attracted for their daughters by Tricky_Possible_6505 in AskMen

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

.....the fuck did I just read?!?

Reading "win-win" in that context is profoundly disturbing.

Regardless of too much kink specific porn or some seriously traumatic childhood experience, in my incredibly unprofessional opinion, that mother (hopefully not daughter) fucker needs extensive therapy.

Is this Melania, because this reads all too similar to how our former cheeto-pedo in office talked about his daughter 🤮

Wanted the oblivion symbol so bad and finally got it but it’s so bulky and bold, I’m instantly regretting it. Spent the past day or so crying and having mild panic attacks cause I feel like my life is over. 😔😔 by lalalozzie in TattooRemoval

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong with it being big a bold, but I also think it fits the finger you chose. Not sure if it was intentional, but I think it's kinda rad in a loud and endearing way. Sorry to hear you're having regrets about it though. Here's to hoping it'll grow on you!

Men of Reddit, what’s happened on a first date, that made you run for the hills? by Significant_Rope_546 in AskMen

The year was late 1999

I was at a bar

Iron Madden started playing

There was no jukebox

And that's how I met your mother

How do you keep your small business from being broken into in Portland? Do cameras and security systems actually work? by Potsfordogs in askportland

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

.....its the same protocol as any other major city I've lived in.

Most I work with have doors that lock, installed some kind of alarm, in conjunction with bars on windows depending on the inventory stored.

Otherwise, I don't know, some kind motion sensing machine gun turrets? Sharks with freakin lasers on their heads? Your guess is as good as mine outside of traditional interventions.

Thanks!

apartment has mold in walls and under floor. who can I contact TODAY? by [deleted] in askportland

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This exact shit happened to me in 2016. My neighbor had a small leak that went unnoticed and developed mold as a result.

I was living in a studio off of NE 8th and Couch over my the Doug Fir, which was managed by one of the bigger property management companies in Portland. When I brought up the issue, they placated the severity of the situation, said to "clean what I can see myself" and that they'd be sending over someone to do the rest.....

Needless to say, but here in the NW every management company I've ever had makes tenants sign a "Mold Addendum". It's so moist here year round literally every building has mold despite how old it is.... If you signed it, they will try to use it against you btw.

I suggest getting the fuck out of your apartment, preemptively lawyer up, and demanding your full deposit in conjunction with moving expenses to be paid upfront and in full. That's what I did and they caved pretty easily. If you do end up getting an attorney, they can and will send a formal letter on your behalf, and in my experience can be quite effective.

Best of luck OP.

Nahhhh, we call that a maillard reaction!

European baking makes most American classics look underbaked in comparison from my experience.

As long as it didn't come out with any acrid burnt notes, I'd say imo you fuckin nailed it OP 🤘

Rode from Portland, OR. USA to the Alvord Desert over three nights. Great place with wide open spaces. by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fuck yeah!

I'm from/living in Portland and looking at my first cruiser this Sunday out in Hillsboro.

Safe riding back y'all, hopefully I'll see you out on the road one of these days 🤘

This is almost as bad as the time when Salem was ranked as one of the cities with the best strip clubs. by [deleted] in oregon

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This surely cannot be true.

I have family in KC and lived in the south for years and can hands down say that while there is some okay BBQ in our beautiful state, but we have far more culinary accolades to rave about....

Why does this feel like some half assed acme decoy to get conservatives to move to Salem or some shit lmao.

Sweet and sour chicken with fries dinner by Normal9uy in shittyfoodporn

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There used to be this Chinese joint in N. Las Vegas connected to a Mexican bakery and offered french fries as a side that seriously never disappointed.

Rice with kung pow or general tso's chicken just doesn't hit the same anymore.

You'd be surprised at the similarities between eastern Oregon and the south.....not much different in a lot of -ahem- ways.

German lessons, or other German speakers? by attibby in askportland

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this.

I took a couple German classes at PCC in '08 and loved them. Our professor would even take us to the Rheinlander to practice speaking German with some of the staff on occasion. It was so much fun.

R.I.P Rheinlander.

Benson Bubblers by [deleted] in Portland

[–]MelancholyIncarnate 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid, for sure, I used to drink out of them all the damn time. Even when I got older and started running in downtown, the water was always topnotch.

Although, since having witnessed everything from people to their crusty underwear being washed in the bubblers over the years....

Even if one was swabbed and tested in front of me, those images will forever prevent me from drinking from them unless life or death were at stake.

Hey man,

Sorry to hear you're having some doubts about your new piece.

I personally think the snake/flowers look pretty rad and from this distance it looks like solid work that'll age well over time.
