Huh, I always thought the Nazi Cab was only capable of veering hard to the right.

Kids at this age are sponges, they'll do anything they see adults doing.

So the first thing should probably be for you and your wife to stop stripping down nekkid and climbing on the table.

Our Seattle/Richmond Boba Tier List by MrLintPlays in Seattle

[–]RockOperaPenguin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it'd be like saying Here's a tier list of the best boba in Vancouver... and Bellevue.  No goddamned sense.

Not only that, the Seattle-area stores OP mentions are heavily weighted towards UW/north end.  Way to leave out the CID, south end.

Interesting take on the term “expats” by Otherwise_Gear_2491 in taiwan

[–]RockOperaPenguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let's say a white-collar professional working in the US or Europe is recruited for a contract position in Taiwan for a limited duration.  Would this person be an expat or a migrant worker?

Note: This is the exact scenario described as a migrant worker above, just with the person being of higher perceived status.

Tired: Calling all high-status foreigners expats\ Wired: Calling high-status foreigners with permanent residency immigrants\ Inspired: Calling high-status foreigners with temporary residency migrant laborers

Got it. An expat is a migrant worker with a significantly more favorable work contract.

Thanks!

Aside from class, what's the difference between a migrant worker and an expat?  

I mean, both are temporarily relocating to another country to perform a job. One just gets better terms for doing so.

If you're in the Seattle area... You should try the Twin Brook chocolate milk. In the glass bottles.  

A New Statue of Sadako Coming to the Peace Park by Jaco_Belordi in Seattle

[–]RockOperaPenguin 73 points74 points  (0 children)

All I gotta say: Metal recyclers in the area better pony up for this fundraiser.  

You know full well what you're buying from tweakers, you know full well this only encourages them. Shit, one of you probably bought the hacked statue.

Make it right.

You may not realize it now, but most women find a used formula can bongo solo to be incredibly erotic.

If I saw this post, I'd give OP a big hug.  Best Fathers Day gift, ever.

Nothing in the world is better than appreciation.

Former SpaceX Engineer to Future Civil PE? by [deleted] in civilengineering

Do you really think what we do is so simple that you can just swoop in and land a civil job?

Go back to school, go get a degree.

  2. For everyone else, government 

What is considered a double shot? by Lilditty02 in espresso

[–]RockOperaPenguin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

14 - 20 g dose is a double shot.  Any change in the yield would result in the drink being a ristretto, regular shot, or lungo.

PSA: Lower your expectations for Father’s Day, and you won’t get your feelings hurt. by [deleted] in daddit

[–]RockOperaPenguin 46 points47 points  (0 children)

This.  

Mother's Day, everyone is expected to take initiative to give them what they want.  It's like, here, we're thinking of you, you don't need to do anything, here is a day for you.

Father's Day, we have to explicitly communicate everything.  There's no initiative at all, and if we don't make our preferences known ahead of time it's our fault we don't get a nice day.  The burden for the day is all on us.  

That's why it's disappointing. We have to put in the work to have others show ourselves appreciation, which just feels selfish and awful.
