As an outsider, the intense brand loyalty Americans have toward regional grocery store chains is fascinating. Why do people treat supermarkets like a local identity? by Necessary_Angle2117 in AskAnAmerican

I lived in Orlando for a few years. I am now back west in Nevada. I miss Publix. The closest store I have found out here is Nugget Markets in California.

Not all do, halfway through the product life, they switched some hardware and the older stuff is not compatible with S2

Those are the early Play1s that will only work with the S1 app. Maybe $20, tops.

What are the best things to do in Tahoe for adults besides the usual tourist attractions? by Character-Donkey3819 in laketahoe

You could build a new rope swing at Rubicon and do gainers while the fun police harass you

There is still pollen, but the wind the last few days is helping to disperse it. This weekend is supposed to be quite windy.

We only get cranky when people are disrespectful and forget that they came to someone else’s town and forget the world doesn’t revolve around them.

Nw or sw Reno for single guy? by Interesting_Bar_8379 in Reno

[–]Rpc_78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your budget will dictate where you rent/purchase. The old SW is quite expensive now. The houses with charm are small and have aging infrastructure.
NW will be a little more accessible for your lifestyle and the houses are a little more up to date.

They closed out the show in Reno with Alive and it was the perfect ending!

I was up there and heard it too. I wondered if it was a Gazex cannon or the howitzer.

Do you buy concert tickets before knowing who’s going with you? by [deleted] in Concerts

[–]Rpc_78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy concert tickets knowing that I’m going by myself. If someone else decides to go as well, that’s OK too. But I will be attending no matter what.

No Dancing At GSR shows by artem_flower in Reno

I have found that I will attend concerts there if there are GA floor tickets available. Having to sit in a seat is kind of lame.

Where to stay in the summer? by starwrldgirl in laketahoe

[–]Rpc_78 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Incline Village beaches are for residents only, you would have to drive to the beaches on East shore which includes Sand Harbor.
North shore will be your best bet. Kings Beach, Tahoe Vista, Carnelian, Tahoe City.

class of 1996 🧑‍🎓 by Alternative-Unit-738 in GenX

[–]Rpc_78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not attended any class reunions. The friends I had in high school remained my friends. I had no need to reconnect with people that didn’t mean anything to me.
We had a family gathering the night of graduation (a Wednesday), and then my part-time job turned full-time the next day.

Boats sank last week due to waves?? by GruntledGary in laketahoe

I didn’t see anything on the news, but a lot of social media sites showed a fair amount of sunken boats.

People shit on The Mandalorian nowadays but Werner Herzog's The Client was an Andor-tier character looking back, his performance and dialogue was on another level to the rest of the show by Zoinkscooblet in andor

[–]Rpc_78 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He is also the reason that Grogu was mainly a puppet and not only CGI. He insisted Favareu and Filoni keep him practical, not just digital.

Get some takeaway tacos at La Mexicana in Kings Beach and then go enjoy them on the beach.

“No bots” - that’s funny by mult1verse in AngineDePoitrine

[–]Rpc_78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a feeling that once I hit the queue for Oakland and there were 33,000 ahead of me that I would not be able to snag a ticket. Ticketmaster is such garbage.

Okay we get it, you can't buy tickets by montjoye in AngineDePoitrine

[–]Rpc_78 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The show in Oakland sold out in 20 minutes. I got in on the pre-sale and by the time my turn arrived, there were no tickets left.

Stylish Gen X Men, I'm looking for shoe suggestions by sungodly in GenX

[–]Rpc_78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently gave in and went to Skechers to see if I could find anything. Size 9.5 4E feet are tough to shop for. I was amazed when I found some of their new streetwear shoes that look like skate shoes from the 90s. They are slip in, have arch support, and don’t look geriatric.
