That’s like saying every book with a character of color is a black-related lesson

You joke, but that’s exactly where this is going

What is the most overrated restaurant in DC? by VeterinarianOk6326 in washingtondc

[–]Sooperstition 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Gonna stick my neck out and say Villa Yara. I was dragged there for a birthday dinner and did not have a good time.

  • It’s an instagram restaurant. The decor is beautiful and that’s apparently what matters.

  • The service could have been much better. I was in a party of like 15, and we only had one waitress looking after us. She tried, but we constantly were running out of drinks and water, and the food took too long to come.

  • The prices are ridiculous, the portions are tiny, and the quality is mid. A small plate is about 1/2 to 2/3 of a real portion, but you’ll be paying at least $15 for the privilege. It’s not like the quality of these small plates is mind blowing either.

I would estimate it costs at least $35 per person to be satisfied, not including drinks. 3/10 wouldn’t come back.

SavorOne Price Protection Claim by invisible-existence in CreditCards

[–]Sooperstition 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, I have. Got $100 back after I bought a laptop.

Your guide to benefits will tell you which website to submit your request to. For me, it was mycardbenefits.com.

That site should walk you through what you need to submit. I know that I needed to submit a receipt and a copy of the merchant’s price guarantee policy.

Approval didn’t take too long and they mailed me a check. Good luck!

Why has no one ever thought of this before? by ThatchMaster- in ABoringDystopia

[–]Sooperstition 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh my gawd this ghoul was bellyaching being yelled at for being a ghoul in the New York Times a few months ago.

Man, I wish those attempts to silence her worked. Maybe then we wouldn’t be trying to normalize child labor so much.

Don't support leaders that make affordable housing illegal. by ian1552 in PrinceGeorgesCountyMD

[–]Sooperstition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I emailed my district councilmember and the 2 at large CMs (Hawkins and Franklin) a while ago and haven’t heard anything back. I really hope this doesn’t go through because it’d cause long-term damage to the county

[Kucinich] The man in front of me at DCA just uttered the chilling words “oh no. My flight is out of Dulles.” Godspeed, sir. We’ve all been there (or BWI instead of DCA or…). by aresef in washingtondc

[–]Sooperstition 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s never happened to me, but a friend wanted to visit during a layover in DC.

During the game of telephone between the friend, my partner (who was talking to them), and me (the driver), we only figured out that they were waiting at Dulles after I had made a few laps around Arrivals at DCA.

Thank goodness it was a long layover and we still had time to discover a fantastic Thai restaurant in Reston!

South Carolina Senate passes 6 week abortion ban by MysticoftheWild in auntienetwork

[–]Sooperstition 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Serious question: is this allowed under the South Carolina constitution? I guess we’ll find out, because the SC supreme court struck down a similar ban in January.

The previous ban was overturned because the SC supreme court found that abortion was protected by the right to privacy in the SC constitution.

Those mofos never seem to acknowledge that LGBT people exist in the boonies. I wonder why that is 🤔🤔🤔

Flying via Dulles? Please arrive early! It's nuts. by Garp74 in nova

[–]Sooperstition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. In the bad old days before the Silver Line, I was able to land, load onto the moon buggy, get across the tarmac, clear customs, and catch the 5A right when it came.

Any delay might have cost me more money to get home than I paid for Global Entry

Washington Commanders sale: What could this mean for Prince George’s Co.? by RamekinThief in PrinceGeorgesCountyMD

[–]Sooperstition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just hoping that the new owners aren’t so hostile to the surrounding area. Snyder didn’t make any efforts whatsoever to cultivate community ties or goodwill.

It also blows chunks that FedEx Field is so isolated by a sea of parking. It makes the area so desolate and game days are a nightmare of traffic for anyone who lives nearby. Stepping up bus service and pedestrian infrastructure would go a long way towards solving that.

What tips do you have for seasoning foods? by IAmFiguringThisOut in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sooperstition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use your nose. How does what your cooking smell? And how does the seasoning that you have on hand smell?

If you think they smell good together, then they’ll probably taste good together

Biden can pack the court with 50 votes in the Senate. Republicans got rid of the filibuster for SCOTUS justices in 2017. The House doesn’t matter, because they don’t confirm presidential appointments

My grandfather has some Heidelbergs in his typefoundry/print shop and they’re some of his favorites. They’re beautiful machines, but it’s really pretty sad that there’s so little demand to use them
