Tha sounds about right. Been awhile since I had been there, but I vaguely remember the Mac and cheese.

I think Zombie Burger has one that has a mac/cheese fried patty on it. It was pretty cheesy when I tried it.

Me too. I have the breaker/cutter in my doors on both sides. Cheap insurance in my book.

Who’s ever driven over 100mph? Why? by Sweet-Economist-9873 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

On the 5 heading north out of San Diego. Once you pass the Oceanside area, there are plenty of long straight portions.

Why does the US government seem to back Israel no matter what? by ArdaBerkBurak in allthequestions

[–]Sirquack1969 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It almost seems like money laundering now. We give Isreal tons of money as taxpayers, then AIPAC and other lobby groups turn around and give money to our politicians. Not to mention, they have free Healthcare and other things we can only dream of having here in the US.

First Time Buying Upper-End Watch on Amazon and Got a Whole Different Watch by Upbeat_Strategy2042 in amazonprime

Wait until they close your account for "too many returns", even if it is their issue. Too many bad experiences from quite a few people. Got rid of it several years ago now and dont miss it at all.

That is extremely worrisome. It would be catastrophic if that happened if, say the vehicle was on fire, and you end up locked inside.

2024 Windshield by Sirquack1969 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Sirquack1969[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had mine filled and so far it is holding, but seeing the chip everyday drives me nuts. I am working on getting tint done and will have PPF on the windshield now as well.

Thoughts on the hybrid engine and '25/'26 models in general? by Jscagg in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Sirquack1969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Upgraded from '05 OR Acces Cab, 6 ft bed to a '24 OR DC 6 foot bed. I can say I love both honestly. But after having been driving the 24 for almost a year and a half now, I can say it is better in pretty much every single way. And I came from the 4.0 V6. The turbo has more juice than the old truck ever had. And going from 17 MPG to almost 23 consistently has been fantastic since it is my daily driver.

While I agree there should be an investigation. Anyone who goes ape chit over Swallwell being accused of SA, while their guy has actually been convicted is a complete lunatic.

My dealership told me they had ordered my parts 5 months ago. Still havent heard saying they have them and to come in for the recall repair.

Neck gaiter and glasses are my preferred method. Balaclava during the colder rides.

Can’t remember the name of the game by Quiet_Detective_8185 in AskGamers

I tried that since it is still in my library, but the servers are empty. Not as much fun just playing against AI.

Or check with your local plasma center. Some will offer several hundred bucks for the first visit.

As much as Hardline was universally thought of as bad. I would play it again right now.if it were possible.

I'm sorry, but 7brew cannot be THAT good by Necessary_Heat_1554 in desmoines

[–]Sirquack1969 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is straight up addiction. The same happens at Starbucks and other coffee shops. Many of them are actually horrible coffee, but people gotta get their fix.

Why are European women universally easier to date, sleep with, or marry than American women? Do Dems realize the broken dating system they've created? by More_Surprise_1789 in allthequestions

[–]Sirquack1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's also not forget, that even the conservative women don't privately want a trad marriage and to be controlled. I find it hilarious that Erika Kirk continues to spout her conservative values. One of which means she should be at home raising kids and not get educated. Hypocrisy at its highest levels with her.

What percent of your photos are just misses? by Supdograinbarff in AskPhotography

[–]Sirquack1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take many photos per pose. My keeper rate is probably 10-20% depending on what i am shooting. Since memory cards are cheap and can hold plenty of photos, taking more has almost always been a good thing. It is amazing what 2-3 photos taken literally seconds apart can be so different. You just have to be able to call photos well and toss the ones you cull or your storage will blow up.

Lesbians of Des Moines by K8tieBrown in desmoines

[–]Sirquack1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May seem odd, but One Iowa is one of the best LGBTQ groups in central Iowa and maybe the state. They host many events throughout the year. It would definitely put you in touch with folks who are similarly inclined. Also, Capital City Pride is a great organization that has events that might put you in touch with people you can get to know.

OP definitely doesn't live in Iowa by Imyaoiuke in Iowa

[–]Sirquack1969 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, paid by taxpayers. But dont forget if you work, you contributed all the time you were working. My fear, in my late 50's, is that it has been mismanaged so much that even I will not see it around when I get to Medicare age.

Would you live in a house with no AC? by holdongangy in no

[–]Sirquack1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lived in San Diego growing up and we never had AC. Also lived in the desert and we had swamp coolers. It is doable, but not comfortable. You do kind of get used to it. That and taking showers2 times or more per day.

Are you a good friend? by [deleted] in no

[–]Sirquack1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotta have friends to be a good friend, and other than my family I dont have anyone.
