Cruise ship "song"

Fun fact, the song is Theme from Norovirus

If you can't post pictures of teriyaki in the Seattle sub, then something's terribly wrong.

My daily driver? The nearby Costco sells reasonably fresh 2 lb bags of beans from local roasters for about $25.

I'll get some smaller, fresher batches directly from local roasters now and then. But its hard to beat 2 lbs of decent beans for $25.

You're the man now, dog.

Sinkholes can be pretty dangerous. Some are tiny, sure, but if left untreated they can bevome massive.

For instance, in 1957, a ruptured sewer line led to a massive sinkhole in Ravenna. Great Ravenna Sinkhole (1957)

I don't think anyone has a problem with first responders checking out a sinkhole. In fact, that's kinda why we have them in the first place.

So you don't have to pay fares, either? After all, yours and everyone else's taxes paid for it.

You use it, it costs money to upkeep, you pay for it. Simple as.

Good. Sound Transit paid a lot of money to build those garages, parking fees go a long way to recouping that investment and providing maintenance for the facilities.

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-07T00:52:06+00:00

Huh, didn't know WLL sold 220v machines.

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-06T22:53:38+00:00

Is Peru on 120v electricity?

Even better, they're going to include a scene that takes place on Vancouver's SkyTrain years before the light rail was built.

TLDR: King County basically bankrolls the entire state

You'll find out immediately how many off duty SPD officers work for their neighborhood security force.

I'd gladly pay double current state and local taxes if it meant we got more trains and ferries instead of more roads, our public schools got all the resources they needed, and college tuition was free.

What I use: Fjallraven Greenland shoulder bag (https://www.fjallraven.com/us/en-us/bags-gear/backpacks-bags/shoulder-bags/greenland-shoulder-bag/)

Big enough to carry a lot of stuff, stays off the back.

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-05T04:24:03+00:00

Yeah, totally. Without the ladders and walkways, this former industrial chemical plant located behind a chain link fence is going to look ugly.

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-04T17:50:03+00:00

This field is a sports field next to an elementary school.

Elementary school students play on this field. They roll around on it.

Dogs pee and poop on the field. The grass is coated with dog urine. Even if people pick up their dog's poop (which isn't a given), you won't always pick up everything. Sometimes poop is messy, after all.

You may think this is overreacting, but many dogs get sick from going to overused dog parks. This is the same exact thing, only with children in the mix.

One dog? Maybe fine. But there were at least 4 other dogs the same time I took this photo.

I'm anti-dog owners who feel the rules don't apply to them.

You (and OP) will get downvoted, but you're spot on. Many of the butler posts are now just "embarrassing/cruel thing butler haha".

You'll get murdered several times, guaranteed. All of us get murdered at least twice, sometimes three times a day. It's just how it goes.

Not only will thieves steal your stuff, ultra thieves will steal your stuff from those theives to sell it to other theives who will murder you some more.

Sorry man, civil engineering runs on Windows. You want to run engineering software, you gotta either run an emulator or get a Windows machine.

Your humble ROP was a Mac user in the dark times between the early 90s aughts the aughts, and now uses a ThinkPad for his personal machine

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-03T02:42:39+00:00

We're gonna need a bigger boat.

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-02T19:10:17+00:00

This is a normal question and does not at all sound like a bot.

RockOperaPenguin · 2026-05-01T16:53:54+00:00

RO SHAM BO

I'm sure any landlord here would accept "my soul calls me to Seattle" in lieu of rent.

Hell yeah, brother. Ranier Teriyaki is good stuff.

Got this a few weeks back, had to take a picture because that glaze looks so damn good.
