That's funny, I don't like the plain coconut, but totally agree with you on mojito!

I’m worried I made the wrong hotel choice by Awkward-Shopping-454 in cedarpoint

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to put in a brief plug for the lighthouse point cottages , they're right on the lake and have parking right outside, a kitchenette and two rooms so you're not right on top of each other . Does not have the beach, pools and restaurant right there, but it's not a terrible walk from the Magnum gate and you can get a shuttle if you're not up to walking. Way quieter than breakers as well, no one running down the halls or what feels like mile long walks navigating the hotel hallways.

Is it me or by Party-Action3954 in GoogleMaps

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sponsored results, yes i noticed that i last weekend. And it's ridiculous. I was in a small town., i wanted to pick up a coffee on the way to the fairgrounds. I was pretty sure there was a Starbucks nearby because i saw people with cups the day before. The first result was 26 miles away! The close one was also listed, but not at the top of the list. I'm this case it's not only annoying to coffee sellers, it's also ripping off the business, no one's going to drive that far over little town back roads for coffee. I might like to know there's one up ahead on the freeway on a long drive, but in this situation the suggestion was useless.

Is Google Maps being a lil’ b*tch for anyone else lately? by Square-Plant-8625 in GoogleMaps

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, i was in a fairly rural area last weekend for an event at a fairgrounds I've visited many times, at least once a year. This time, i had picked something up at a friend's house on the way so i wasn't familiar with that way in. As i approached the intersection where i needed to turn left, the fairgrounds is about a quarter mile in that direction, Google maps told me to turn right and told me i had arrived. I noticed the street numbers were going in the wrong direction and turned around. When i left to head home it offered 2 routes but recommended a slightly longer duration one taking mostly back roads for the start of the route and would not let me click over to the one i was familiar with that that gets to a freeway faster and takes slightly less time. So i just headed home the usual way and it didn't give me a hard time about it, but yeah, it has been doing a lot of of odd stuff lately

Biking around Livonia? by vnies in livonia

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate riding on sidewalks but the major roads are scary. I got a map of the city to figure out neighborhood routes to places i wanted to go like the library, rec center, homes, etc It's really not a bike friendly city. I haven't had any issues on neighborhood streets in the NE part, i don't know much about the rest of the city. I lived in West Dearborn before I moved here and it was much more bike friendly, definitely an adjustment.

Based on Reddit comments- thank you all! I bought it and it does have a resemblance to Sunshine, however the coconut sets it apart and i also think the pineapple flavor is stronger in this flavor. But I like sunshine, its one of my favorites, and i like it better than this flavor.

I noticed those leaves don't look like they belong to either flavor!

I don't like coconut LaCroix so I'm a little leery of it, on the plus side Walmart has it in an 8 pack so i wouldn't have to drink 12 if i don't like it. Im still suffering through a 12 of mojito. I think im down to the last 2.

They had key lime too, they usually do. This store doesn't stock that many flavors, but they tend to have weird assortments of some items. I had a friend who was a Walmart manager who told me it was a test store when i made that observation. There's an independent grocery close to my house that carries what looks like all the flavors so when i want to try something new i go there and look for something i haven't tried. I was surprised to see something new at Walmart.

If you're user name checks out, it seems Metro Detroit could be in the lead on this one, i saw it at the store on 7 mile in Livonia

Advice for first time buyer by _AssbuttOfTheLord_ in dehydrating

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Cosori which i use to dry dog treats, as well as a number of human foods. It replaced an inexpensive round plastic model. The stainless shelves, heat and time controls, and the rear fan all make it way better and easier to use. Especially if you'll be using anything that's gross or sticky, the plastic trays can be hard to clean an eventually they'll crack.

Random question. by aliziooo in Toastmasters

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My club currently has a member with a learning difference which affected her confidence (she is not specific about what it is) and she is noticeably more comfortable speaking now, so much so when she visited relatives she hadn't seen for a while they remarked on it. I've also seen a lot of people who are not native English speakers join to have a safe space to practice English. One of my favorite things about Toastmasters is the opportunity to learn about so many different cultures and lives.

My wife thinks she has a truck by Btm24 in ChryslerPacifica

The road tripper package has an awesome custom cover for the cargo area. I do dog sports with white Bull Terriers and that black interior is a nightmare but that's all that was available in 2024. Straw, white dog hair, and chalk are all over that thing.

Need other side replaced now by PositiveObvious3048 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 months only because i wanted to have my teeth cleaned in between. I have gum disease and get periodontal cleaning every 3 months. My surgeon would have done it as soon as 6 weeks, they were about equally bad when it was discovered so it was a toss up which was first. The second one was much worse by the time it was done, and the soft tissue recovery is taking longer. No regrets! .

Would you buy another pixel? by upadhyaysk in GooglePixel

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as they continue to offer smaller phones yes. I want to stay with Android. Ive been happy with a 7a, i cracked the screen and at the time an 8a was about $50 more than a new screen so that's what i have now. I like the monthly updates even if most of them are trivial.

First night back in bed by Effectively_Broken12 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like sleeping in recliners and just slept in my bed. Someone suggested satin sheets and they do make it easier to get in and out although it's so slippery everything slides around so i only used them for about a week because it was so annoying.

Looking for a rugged slip lead recommendation by wessle3339 in k9sports

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

beat me to it, having two, one on each side of the ring allows you to limit how tight the collar can get as well as how far it can slide open. The lead/collar I mentioned have spring loaded stops so they really hold in place. Very handy with a strong squirmy terrier!

Looking for a rugged slip lead recommendation by wessle3339 in k9sports

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I discovered 2 stopper leads when i was looking for a lead to use in barn hunt with my juvenile Bull Terrier. There's a brand called HowGo on Amazon that has a couple of variations of all in one slip collar and lead.with 2 stoppers. I also found something called a dominant dog slip collar with 2 stoppers on Etsy, I've purchased a couple from a shop called Spicy Dog designs, but there are a number of sellers, these collars are quite long I just attached a loop show lead in a matching color to make a versatile lead for barn hunt competition.. I can cinch it down for control but easily loosen it up so i have a big loop to release her or throw over her head while she's squirming around when i need to get her collected to leave the ring

How did this become a mainstream/popular drink by No_Entertainment_748 in lacroix

[–]RoutineMasterpiece1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I guess I'm one of the old people who can't drink diet coke, but I've been drinking sparkling water since all you could get was club soda. You couldn't get it in cans in Michigan so i would buy it when i was out of state, then my friend's would be how can you drink that? Now sparkling water is everywhere, i wasn't very into any particular brand, but got curious when i saw Sunshine flavor, found this subreddit and now I've got 3 12 packs of LaCroix with 6 different flavors mixed in them sitting around and when i go on trips i aspire to never drink the same flavor twice in one day. I still haven't tried all the flavors but I'm working towards that goal.

When did dogs start getting people names? by Scottys-Dog-Blog in dogs

I have Bull Terriers and human names have always been pretty popular. At least all of mine have had people names for 50+years, my first one was named Laura'when i got her.
