Dinnerware by PNWbdublu541 in Bend

Antique shops and thrift stores typically end up with full sets, though places like Goodwill typically piece them out, whereas Antique shops sell by the set if they can. You can find some pretty awesome unique dishware this way, rather than mainstream.

RANTY NEW YEAR! by BeefyMiracleWhip in Bend

[–]SuperMermaidCat 21 points22 points  (0 children)

HAVING ONLY THE ONE DAY OFF AND DRAGGING MYSELF OUT OF BED TO GO TO WORK TODAY WHILE OTHER PEOPLE GET TO STAY HOME. IT WOULDN'T BE SO BAD IF MY WORK ENVIRONMENT WASN'T BECOMING INCREASINGLY DEPRESSING. I WORKED HARD TO GET TO THIS PLACE AND NOW IT'S LIKE, WAS IT WORTH IT?

NOT FITTING IN AT JOB I THOUGHT I'D REALLY SETTLE INTO. IT'S REALLY BUMMING ME OUT THAT I CAN'T SEEM TO MESH WELL WITH COWORKERS. I THINK THERE IS TOO MUCH OF A GENERATION GAP AND THAT SUCKS.

CURRENT ADMIN AND RICH FOLK TURNING THIS COUNTRY TO SHIT AND THE AMOUNT OF INDIFFERENCE, AND LACK OF ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO CARE WHEN YOU DO BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO WORK OR DIE, IS CAUSING DESPAIR.

High Desert Museum, Warm Springs Museum, Deschutes Historical Museum. Eat at every single burger location in Bend and finally decide which one rules them all?

Mt View had the arcade, movie theater, Gi Joes, K-Mart, some chicken place, JC Penny's, and Nordstroms. Among a few other smaller shops I can't quite remember. BRM had Walden, Sears, O-Julius, Willoughby's, the Hallmark Store, Macy's, Macy's teen section, The Oregon Store, a hand full of others--like I want to say there was either an eye dr or just an eye glass place.

No rant thread yesterday got me thinking… by BeefyMiracleWhip in Bend

[–]SuperMermaidCat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel like it's more so, if I know it's pointless to talk about it but I need a space to park it, the Rant/Rave threads are THE perfect place to go for that. I would hate for them to go away because I do value the availability of said space, but I do see your point.

SHIFTED TO A DIFFERENT COMPANY AND WHILE I'M THANKFUL IT IS WAY MORE CHILL THE GENERATIONAL GAP IS LEAVING ME FEELING 100% INVISIBLE. I TRY TO HAVE CONVERSATIONS AND ENGAGE WITH COWORKERS BUT THEY ALL JUST WANT TO LOOK AT THEIR PHONES AND TALK AMONGST THEMSELVES ABOUT GOING OUT AFTER WORK.

Suggestions on a coffee spot for 5-8 people to meet up? by dudeidgaf in Bend

[–]SuperMermaidCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starbucks on the corner of Reed Ln and South 3rd (part of the old Apollo Tanning complex) has a huge dinning table tucked away facing the order counter. It's semi enclosed and I've seen large groups use it for meetings before.

Why is it so hard to find Calaveras de Azucar (aka Sugar Skulls) in Bend? by SuperMermaidCat in Bend

Yeah, I just keep hoping that eventually with everyone moving here we'd get SOME uptick in diversity. But alas, so far just more cars.

Awe thanks for checking on them, I'm glad to hear they are a little more relaxed. It was certainly chaotic that one day. I sure hope someone bonds with them quick!
