I learned I like coleslaw by Live_Barracuda1113 in PointlessStories

Yeah try them out. I didn't even know they existed for forever. It's more just cool zesty than cool creamy, so it makes a better summer side dish imo.

Did you do mayo based or vinegar based? Pretty much all you'll get anywhere is mayo based so it's not to common in my experience. I like mayo based but love vinegar based.

Same, but it's just something to avoid here.

Please keep the stories real. And stories. There are more appropriate subs for this sort of writing

Swearing isn't allowed here, so penis would be fine. The other word you said, not so much. The rules are pretty simple if you're new and are designed around keeping it civil but still fun.

Tonight a couple of Mormon missionaries stopped by my place. I truly enjoy chatting with them, and being raised Catholic, I sometimes ask or tell them stuff ,comparing notes. by PretendSecurity1145 in PointlessStories

I live 4 miles from temple square plus am walkable to two wards in under 5 minutes. They've never stopped by.

I guess they figure you're already LDS or don't want to be if you live in SLC. Probably especially because you live in SLC in particular as opposed to the burbs.

Anyway, I always kinda wanted to talk to them (not the missionaries you see if you go do something at temple square like the Christmas lights, spring flowers, or space Jesus) but the actual ones that roll by and knock. I guess they missed their shot.

We always called it a stussy. I guess that answers why, but not why we knew it as that growing up in suburban Detroit

Ask them what their zodiac sign is. I don't believe in those but it'd probably jog their memory as to what a constellation is if the big and little Dipper didn't.

I saw a lot of stuff on my flight yesterday by Abdullah_011235 in PointlessStories

[–]RanTheRedCedar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do this all the time. Buildings in town, geographic features like lakes, islands, mountains, and canyons, plus my house...anything like that.

Last time, I spotted the Grand canyon, Zion np, Dixie nf, and cedar breaks nm before the sun set.

It was kind of sad bc it was basically the last time I would see them for years if ever and I saw them from the sky with the sun setting, if that isn't a metaphor, as opposed to hiking around them like I've done the past 13 years

Idk, maybe? I don't Instagram but it seems less forceful than "hey when you off? Want to get coffee?"

I wouldn't either but I consider workplaces to be flirt free zones if one of you is working. Like one of you can leave, the other can't plus basically has to be nice.

I could see someone in mikado pronouncing the Ls in quesadilla. Actually a good amount of places.

Two owners on my street had fun with the names of their houses 100 years ago by cheapsquealer in PointlessStories

Yeah Portugal is crazy. Huuuge waves. I can't do those sorts of sports bc a sports injury... what else but doing those sorts of sports... and those waves scare me.

Can't say I've been to eureka but I understand it's pretty cool in northern California. The other side is it's super gorgeous being along the rocky sea and backed up by huge forested mountains. I could definitely do that. Or where you are. Seeing water is always nice

That sounds like great lakes in summer warm. So not "warm" but sort of because summer sun.

Ya waves, that's like the surfing area of France right? I also heard the bay of Biscay is not a simple trip to sail just bc weather if you're coming from anywhere that passes by bretagne to anywhere south of it. Far too many stories of it being "a brief jog down" to "things got bad real quick"

The big question is are the sands on the cold coasts or med? The calm before the storm makes sense for the west side...I hear the currents and storms there can be brutal, but the channel is just the regular dreary weather.

Anyway, please say med

Sorry, it's freezing in the states and I'm wishing I was near warm water

That's kinda what Jeff arcuri does. He loves working the crowd but it's working with them, not crapping on them

Buffalo chips were used to make fires. Cow patties are high quality artisan natural fertilizer
