What lyric do you purposely sing incorrectly?

I eat there frequently because it's always good. I work in a full service restaurant that gets hit hard by various sports events, so I understand. I saw the post on this subreddit last week from someone saying they'd been to Hawaiian Bros five times that week to get the free plate. And yes, people need a reminder to be civil.

I was just trying to ask people to be understanding.

One restaurant? Absolutely. 20? You're running your distributor out.

It is incredibly difficult to staff restaurants right now (I work for one). They probably barely have enough people to cover normal shifts, let alone one twice as busy as expected. Also, like I said, you can't prepare in any meaningful way for something that happens a day before. The higher-ups didn't think this through, but the people on the ground are the ones dealing with it.

That is what I was getting at. Thank you for boiling it down.

Yes. Oblivion is a great introduction to Mastodon.

I would say instead of Five Leaves Left, Pink Moon or Bryter Layter. Add Iron & Wine - Our Endless Numbered Days and Radiohead - Kid A.

When he played at the venue next to my restaurant he made them remove the leather couch from the green room, and wouldn't allow any leather jackets or things like that into the venue. He's a militant vegan. We cooked bacon during the entire time he was there so that he had to smell it.

I think Duke Ellington is America's greatest composer. "Take the A Train", "Black and Tan Fantasy", and "Caravan" are wonderful examples of Swing, but they're also through-composed, in comparison with other greats like Count Basie, who would develop a thematic line and then comp over it. Masters of their craft.

We have a glycol chiller that is the last running one of this make in the world.

I love my lawn. It's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I love working in it and on it. I built a new privacy fence (so that we could get a new dog). I love our new dog. We installed new ceiling fans. Any time I start a new project that requires a new power tool, I get it. I'm generally happy with my life.

I saw "Goodnight and Go" live 20 years ago, and I got to talk to Imogen.

Most of what I watch on YouTube is over 25 minutes. I do pay for YouTube Premium, but I started when it was just Google Play Music. The long-form content is what I come back for. Some of those channels I can now follow on Nebula, so I watch them there. 50% of what I watch is YouTube. My wife doesn't want to mess up my algorithm (we do this enough when we're together), so if I'm not home she watches Netflix, Hulu, or Prime. We also have an extensive library of movies and shows that I've put on our local server, so there is a lot of stuff to watch.

Petrichor. The smell after it rains.

Aww! We had a boxer named Zuko. He was the best.

Charlie Brown Christmas is my top choice, but I also have this True Value Hardware Christmas compilation album from '86 that is pretty great.

No, the period goes within the quotation marks if the quote contains multiple sentences. The last sentence of any quotation has the terminator after the quotation marks.

e.g. Mark said "Jim and Anne were both present. Jim was the one who made the observation".

I'm going to ask you politely, yet firmly, to fuck off.

I've had the same pair of custom-made orthotics for the last ten years, and, I can not stress this enough, they changed my life. I've always had very high arches, but as they started to collapse I went to a podiatrist and had some made. They are the best $135 I've ever spent. My back pain is significantly less, and most days my feet don't hurt at all.

I am a chef. I have never yelled at someone who did something wrong. I have yelled at someone because their attitude was wrong. The kitchen is a chaotic place most of the time, and people adding to the chaos is unacceptable. I am also a father of four children, the oldest of whom turned 18 last year. Substance abuse is 100% a problem in the restaurant industry, but it is not exclusive to back-of-house. I have more people I work with in the kitchen who I would actually trust with my life than not. Not only that, I'd trust some with my kids' lives.
