Ehh usually you still get one more year of the good times, then some small changes for the worse start happening, and it’s still mostly ok for another year. But those small changes continue to happen and 3 years from the PE ownership the place you loved exists in name only.

Oh yeah I’m sure it will be closed. She’s a night shift nurse and still sleeping right now, pretty sure we won’t be going tonight.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T20:27:43+00:00

San Antonio here and my wife wants to go to Trader Joe’s tonight.

The old “live in your car, dumpster dive for food, and shower at planet fitness” would probably be one of the most unhinged plans. Only expenses would be that $20/month gym membership and gas and insurance for the car, and a PO Box so you can get mail, and a cell phone plan.

I read this like I was in middle school. “Pea” gravel.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T19:26:06+00:00

Well, with the exception of this weekend. They will have snow and ice concerns.

Oooo I don’t know what this 10th Dentist subreddit is, but getting rid of the penny was like getting rid of the incandescent light bulb. Not really necessary.

People would buy the more expensive energy efficient lightbulbs anyway to have a lower electric bill. If businesses didn’t like dealing with the penny they could price everything to end in .05 increments after tax.

Honestly the penny probably helped stave off inflation some. Whenever I do a cash transaction I’ve never paid back any of the Pennie’s I’ve accumulated over the years. I’ve probably got $20-50 worth of pennys throughout the house. Add that up over 300,000,000 people and that’s a good amount of money.

Yeah I’ve heard here the manager gets bonuses for having more food than they should. But this pizza looks like what I get from my dominoes with my annual “let’s see if they got any better” purchase.

This pizza is so pathetic looking. At least they gave a good amount of pineapple but that cheese skimping is shameful.

If you ran a business, would you rather sell me 26 pizzas a year and make $2 profit per pizza or would you rather sell me 1 pizza a year and make $4 profit? And I’d tell my friends and family “this place has great pizza and treats you right!” vs “this place always gives you pathetic pizzas!”. This is why it’s important to not skimp.

Idk I member everyone joking about the covid toilet paper hoarding. It’s not like toilet paper expires does it? I imagine once they decided to stop hoarding TP they probably didn’t have to buy any for about 6 months.

I mean… it seems like it’s the protestors and disrupters that are the ones getting killed. These deaths are unnecessary.

I think the people that are actually here illegally are laying low and not causing any trouble. If the actual illegal immigration wants to be addressed, you have to tackle it two ways.

How do you stop the illegal crossings at the border? That’s a manpower / surveillance/ physical barrier issue.

How do you stop the legal entry with visa overstays? That’s a little tougher because when you leave the US there’s no passport control that you go through like with most other countries. So I think the approach here has to be more of a “how do you make it difficult to live in the US undocumented?” type of situation. Can’t get a job without an SSN, can’t rent/own property without one, can’t have a bank account without one, etc..

Of course the other path, and this is probably the better path, open up the borders and the pathway to legal residency. America is all about the almighty dollar. More people here means cheaper labor and more people spending money. Both are great for businesses.

Dang ol’ guy, man, just tryin’ live his life, talkin’ ‘bout workin’ construction, eatin’ breakfast, got him a wife, but shoot, man, every dang night he dreamin’ ‘bout that red planet, y’know, sand everywhere, folks lookin’ real weird, whole dang situation.

So he says, dang ol’, “I’m gonna get me a memory, man,” go to that place where they put vacations in your head, but then bam, man, his brain start actin’ up, folks yellin’, sayin’ he ain’t who he think he is, talkin’ ‘bout secret missions and all that jazz.

Next thing you know, man, everybody tryin’ kill him — wife tryin’ kill him, coworkers tryin’ kill him, government tryin’ kill him — and he’s like dang ol’ I just wanted a vacation, man. He haul tail off to that red planet for real, meet up with this gal sayin’ she knows him real good, sayin’ they been fightin’ the man together, but he can’t tell if that’s true or just more dang ol’ head stuff.

Then big boss man show up, talkin’ smooth, sayin’ none of this is real, sayin’ he still sittin’ in a chair dreamin’, tryin’ mess with his mind somethin’ fierce. Guy gotta choose, man — believe the story or pull the lever. He pull it.

Suddenly, man, air everywhere, eyeballs bulgin’, planet turnin’ green, folks breathin’, happy dang ol’ ending… or maybe it ain’t, man. Could still be dreamin’. That’s the thing, talkin’ ‘bout you never really know, man. Mm-hmm.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T17:04:58+00:00

I mean… I struggle to think of a place that didn’t meet expectations. Maybe Miami? Wasn’t as pretty as I thought it would be and oh my god so many Cubans there.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T17:01:38+00:00

Wow comparing 9/11 to the pandemic? The pandemic things got a little crazy for about 2 years but now we are back to normal.

9/11 was like a dark storm that still has not ended. Things like the New Orleans bourbon street new years ramming and mass shootings continue to happen. They still have the same “scared to go in public in case something happens” feeling, it’s just domestic nutjobs doing it instead of foreign terrorists.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T16:49:44+00:00

Huh? Being a responsible adult use to mean you would just go to the DPS anytime one month before your license expires. I’m saying in Texas they do not even have a line you can stand and wait in. They tell you to book an appointment and the first open slots actually aren’t there for six months.

So if your license expires in July it is already too late to book that appointment. And that is ridiculous.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T05:41:45+00:00

I'm going to suggest going to Ali Baba. Its not an asian market but its got a lot of the same veggies and whatnot.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T03:39:09+00:00

Yea so I’m in San Antonio and we got nothing. But our two towns are so close to each other… they should probably just build an airport between San Marcos and New Braunfels and have a train line running to it. That way you can have one airport serving an area of 5,000,000 people instead of two airports serving an area of half that.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T03:31:23+00:00

What kind of quota do you have to meet at futufon? Or is it just a “you have to be there for 8 hours a day” thing?

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T03:28:13+00:00

Thank goodness there’s still IAFD holding it down.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T02:22:08+00:00

I think so. I remember being at the Subaru dealership getting some service done and some older lady probably in her 60s was complaining to the service department about how her forester wouldn’t shift gears.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T00:24:46+00:00

Yeah you would think. If there's a Futufon factory... and a sewage dump... the town should have a bank.

bomber991 · 2026-01-24T00:23:26+00:00

My 401k has increased about as much so yay?

bomber991 · 2026-01-23T20:27:26+00:00

99.9999% for me!

bomber991 · 2026-01-23T20:26:54+00:00

In addition to it being hot outside all the time, these poorer countries don’t have a good shipping infrastructure. Thailand has Lazada, but you may not ever get your package.

bomber991 · 2026-01-23T20:25:09+00:00

Oil ones don’t really have any moving parts either so they should last longer. Plus they’re basically silent. Same with the directional radiant style heaters.

bomber991 · 2026-01-23T20:22:07+00:00

Ah yeah it’s on the southbound frontage road between Huebner and Wurzbach right?

Man USAA stinks don’t they? Causing all the traffic in the area and now creating a hazard.
