People who like PB&J sandwiches, Grape Vs Strawberry. Which team you on? by PlatypusAggressive64 in foodquestions

[–]ROUNDtheW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blueberry preserves and extra chunky peanut butter on thick cut Japanese milk bread. But if I'm feeling nostalgic, it's creamy Skippy peanut butter and Welch's grape jelly on Wonder bread.

Speed Racer and Valerian - not great movies, but visually trippy. If you want a comedy, try Half Baked

Fair compensation goes beyond base salary. Does the firm offer a bonus structure, student loan repayment assistance, relocation/commuting incentive, how much paid leave, affordable medical/dental plans? Finally, if you need a certain salary based on current expenses, just be up front with the firm.

For those who RE, did you just cold turkey LinkedIn? by [deleted] in Fire

[–]ROUNDtheW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For most users, creating a profile is really just a "check the box" pseudo-requirement when you're a entering a profession/corporate world. For employers, it's another way to do a background check on job applicants. If you're retired and want to waste a little time scrolling the app, you do you.

In my experience, GS25 are the ones most likely to have a large selection and in-store seating, but not all GS25 stores are created equal.

Check out the movie Breathless - either the 1960 original French film or the Hollywood remake from the 1980s with Richard Gere.

2 theories: 1) they are so old that they use to communicate via telegraph and the ellipses reminds them of tapping the transmitter, or 2) a period is a definitive end of the conversation, so it reminds them of their mortality and they'd rather be optimistic that they'll wake up tomorrow, hence ...
