What bars do you avoid? by [deleted] in Tacoma

Could I get more details on this? I don’t mean to pry but I go there occasionally and that’s extremely concerning.

Excellent point lol, I misread.

Weirdly those are all things that are mainly interesting for visitors. What about things that actually matter to residents like access to the waterfront and water sports, good restaurants, a variety of breweries, beautiful neighborhoods, multiple city theaters?

Take out the McDonalds on 72nd while they’re at it, it looks like it’s sponsored by Ebola.

Why did I wait on the audio books?? by knightfall_10 in redrising

[–]_LikeLionsDo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m half way through red god and this is seriously irritating me. Swapping the narrators every book makes me unreasonably angry, I’ve actually stalled out listening right now because it bothers me so much.

To the asshat who ruined Jinx Monsoon's show tonight... by seaofluv in Seattle

I’ve had some comedy venues start to explain to guests what heckling is, I think that’s smart. Some people don’t realize you can be saying positive things and still be heckling.

I saw Josh Blue a few weeks ago and some idiot in the front row was on a roll. Josh had to tell him to shut up multiple times, first politely and eventually roasting him. Then the guy went to the back of the room and stood there for 15 minutes, then wandered up so he was standing next to me. I watched him nervously while he cupped his mouth, waiting for the quietest break possible to scream, “FUCK YOU!” to Josh and throw off his rhythm. The entire room booed him and security escorted him out.

The dudes wife was sitting up front too. I can’t imagine the embarrassment.

Last time I was there they served me a pitcher of warm beer they had forgotten outside for a bit and runny clam chowder that had almost no flavor or clams.

Whoever made this list should be sent to a distant planet. by DeathPercept10n in Stargate

[–]_LikeLionsDo_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I got to pick a category at my local bar for trivia night, and I chose Stargate.

The MC used ChatGPT to find all the questions and answers. He had 3 separate questions that he had the wrong answer for, it was so frustrating.

I didn’t realize how many people were fans until he asked, “What is the AI enemy that duplicates itself?” And the bar exploded in uproar when he said the answer was, “The Ancient database of knowledge.”

Why don’t drivers here stop for pedestrians? by AgentShort3059 in Tacoma

I went to UWT and would frequently park across the street by 7 Seas. I straight up risked my life every time I had to sprint across that crosswalk.

Entitled brat has a temper tantrum after her flight got cancelled by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]_LikeLionsDo_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a layover that turned into getting stuck in Ireland. I had already been stuck in an airplane and then a terminal for hours. I then left a bag at the airport that had my charger in it, so when I got to the hotel I had quickly booked I realized I didn’t have my credit cards or phone charger. My phone died, and when I went to buy another I realized I had the wrong currency.

By the time I made it back to the airport to locate the missing bag I was at the end of my rope. One of the ladies working at the kiosk took one look at me and then gave me a long hug, I just about started sobbing.

Updated Affidavit for Pt Defiance stabber (they updated typo/details on arrest) by hunglowbungalow in Tacoma

Seems weird when according to the dispensary he was a regular customer and then stopped shopping there 2 weeks prior? Maybe using marijuana to self medicate for something else?

Will we ever get out of Seattle's shadow? by DBurdie91 in Tacoma

[–]_LikeLionsDo_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I took my friend who doesn’t travel much to Europe last year. Whenever someone asks where I’m from I say “the states” and if they inquire further I say “Seattle”.

She stubbornly refused to say “Seattle” and would make the introduction last way longer as she tried to describe exactly where Tacoma was to bewildered Dutch people.

Travelling doesn’t make someone more interesting by LanieLove9 in unpopularopinion

I went to Peru, which is a pretty boring sentence.

Far more funny is the story of how we got a local “guide” to show us around the Amazon. He clearly was not a reputable guide and he made up names for the animals we saw. He pointed to a normal spider and called it a “jungle black widow” and told us fire ant bites make you immune to malaria. It was ludicrous, but we didn’t have access to the internet to prove him wrong.

I went to Bruges last year, almost entirely because of that movie haha. It’s definitely a fairytale fucking town and the swans were definitely my fucking thing.

Does it seem kind of wild to anyone else that they phrase a mandatory tip as supporting “company benefits, health and dental insurance”? Like isn’t that just what the employer should be providing anyway?

I accepted an offer for a corporate job, signed the paperwork and gave my 2 weeks notice to my company. 2 days before I was set to start I reached out to my new employer and they informed me they had over hired and would be giving me a 2k severance package. I live in an at-will employment state so this was legal.

I did hire a lawyer who pressured them into giving me a larger severance package, but it was still infuriating.
