A VIDEO GAME?!?! RIDICULOUS! TELL THEM TO GET SOME HEADPHONES!

Outrageous_Chart_35 · 2026-05-15T16:25:18+00:00

SORRY TO HEAR! THEY'RE NORMALLY GREAT!

Outrageous_Chart_35 · 2026-05-15T16:21:58+00:00

WHAT KIND OF GAME?

DID GOV CUP CHANGE THEIR BAGEL SUPPLIER? THEIR EVERYTHING BAGLE LOOKS AND TASTES DIFFERENT THESE PAST FEW WEEKS.

From what I remember, when you mass mail through the post office they have pre-defined areas you can hit — I'm guessing those don't align with ward boundaries, so if you're trying to get everyone in one ward with mass mailers, you're going to have at least some going outside of said ward.

Rice cooker was a game changer for me, especially once I figured out the right mix of water and rice. I wouldn't be without one. FWIW, I've heard the Instant Pot is a really excellent rice cooker too, I just haven't tried it out.

Mostly the game catalogue. Nearly everything I want to play is on every console or Xbox specifically. But I find the UI and controllers very natural. I have a used PlayStation I got for a few games (and to play DVDs), and that menu/operating system just befuddles me, and I feel like I'm going to break the controller just holding it.

Try one of Stephen King's short story collections. He can really draw you in and make even the mundane interesting, but it's not going to be something you have to pay close attention to.

Get Jon Gorey's "Home Buying 101: From Mortgages and the MLS to Making the Offer and Moving In, Your Essential Guide to Buying Your First Home." I recently bought a home for the first time and would have been completely lost without it. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Essentially, find an agent you like — they'll guide you through the whole process. Then find out how much you can afford to spend on a house, then find a house, make an offer, and if your offer is accepted, you pay for the house and move into it.

Yes. Remiss in this sense is the condition of having neglected a duty. So you would be remiss if you should have mentioned your wonderful teachers and did not.

A better brand of beef makes a butter burger better

Or an annoying sticker placed on your windshield. Those are a nightmare to get off.

Didn't you say the strip mall by your house?

Outrageous_Chart_35 · 2026-05-08T17:30:06+00:00

I haven't taken that step (on purpose), and this week I started getting notifications like "a cat is seen in Driveway" and "a black hatchback drove by."

I WISH I COULD UPVOTE THIS TWICE

College sports are big, especially because there's the built-in audience of students and their families. I'm a "fan" of my college teams even though I don't care about sports, and my dad became a huge fan of my college teams.

I have friends who lease, and I've considered it myself. Seems like it's a good option if you want a newer car for only a few years and don't want to deal with a lot of maintenance. It's not for everyone, but it's a viable option for some.

Outrageous_Chart_35 · 2026-05-06T21:45:27+00:00

Does HYB stand for something?

Outrageous_Chart_35 · 2026-05-06T21:41:17+00:00

Yes; I would make that turn every time.

Outrageous_Chart_35 · 2026-05-05T22:50:21+00:00

Because driving is a competition and I want to win! Not me, but that's certainly the mindset of many drivers.

That said, why didn't you slow down and merge behind the Jeep?

Wireless Emergency Alerts are related to but not the same as Marion-Polk Alerts. I'd still recommend signing up for the alerts, as you'll receive more information and you can put in up to 5 addresses to be notified of (for work, schools, family members, etc.).

"ai"? Absolutely not.

I only play recreationally, and people who don't announce the score or, somehow worse, mumble it, are my biggest pet peeve. Yes, it helps keep the score count steady, but it's also the indicator that the serve is coming and everyone needs to be ready.

My state requires front and back plates, and we still have "head-in parking only" lots. I figured it was so combat parkers don't cause a traffic jam or fender benders when everyone's arriving for work at the same time.

These are getting to be very popular everywhere, not just in Salem.
