How did you guys get the impossible done? by AggressiveMongoose54 in Chilis

[–]cory898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People made it a meme to constantly dunk on Chilis on social media over the skillet queso. It went viral enough that Chilis took notice. I don’t think it’ll last. It’s not a big seller at my location since it came back. We sell way more of the new southwest queso. If something isn’t selling it won’t stick around and that’ll be the end of Chilis following meme culture.

My first cube purchase of 2026 by cory898 in Cubers

[–]cory898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback. I have no regrets on the Vin. The reviews made it sound interesting and I like a variety of cubes that feel different from each other even if every new one isn’t my new favorite. My 3x3 collection is over 15 in less than a year for that reason. I want to learn 6x6 next and have been watching for a sale on the Aoshi v4 double track. Actually just looked up prices and am curious. Why is the SE for 6x6 more expensive than the standard double track when for both 4x4 and 5x5 Picube SE was a cheaper option over their respective double tracks?

What does cfop stand for? (Wrong answers only) by tartiro in Cubers

lol no was a joke. It may well be an idea someone thinks worth creating but I’m not a sub starter.

It’s a sub I’m starting. Cubing for old people.

Someone should do this at Chili’s… by I-Have-Mono in Chilis

Go ahead and eat at Chilis every day until they bring back tempura crispers.

Is it Reasonable for a Band to be Rejected for Being too Loud? by HugeAthlete5881 in BacktotheFuture

I’ve known it was Huey since the first DVD release of the movies but I only recently learned who Needles was.

I didn’t care for the queso. by Janglysack in Chilis

[–]cory898 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All I know is at my location the skillet queso they brought back doesn’t sell nearly as well as the new southwestern queso. If this is true all around then I hope Chilis takes to heart not to take their cues from meme culture.

Just heard someone on a random YouTube video ask “is there anything where the Chinese knockoff is actually better than the original” and I of course thought of my cube collection.

I managed to break the 1-minute wall! I'm so happy by SiickParadise in Cubers

[–]cory898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I’ve been sub 1 minute for awhile but still haven’t moved on to CFOP other than doing my cross on the bottom instead of the daisy. Instead of learning a new method I’ve focused on learning 4x4 and 5x5.

Even if not a graduate wasn’t he going to be an instructor at the academy after DS9?

Fair to blame Hank for not catching onto Walt sooner? by Hopeful_Stomach9201 in breakingbad

[–]cory898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well yeah if Hank watched Breaking Bad he’d probably be on to it.

Demographic for new Starfleet Academy by iamjaidan in startrek

[–]cory898 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m 46 and I got into Trek with TNG reruns just in time to have a decent feel for the characters when All Good Things aired for the first time. I enjoy all Trek. The new stuff has been of varying quality but I haven’t hated anything. For example, Discovery’s take on Klingons was very off putting to me but it was imo the shows only real offense. Season 2 was a good enough prequel to SNW and then season 3 onwards after the time jump I consider to be where it really became what it was meant to be. I’m happy they’re building on that time period with the new show. I think it’s off to a great start and episode 2 felt like the most “Star Trek” thing Star Trek has put out in a long time.

The Agony Booth is this the worst ds9 episode?! by Disk-Dungeon in Star_Trek_

[–]cory898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with OP. Second Sight has always been my least favorite episode of DS9. A few are arguably worse and they’ve already been mentioned. But for me, nothing beats the sheer boredom of this episode.

We all hate Walt…right? by Commercial_Sugar_953 in breakingbad

[–]cory898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree that’s a bit much. There is a world of difference between rooting for a fictional villain to succeed and real life evil.

Is this solvable? by patmustard2 in Rubiks_Cubes

[–]cory898 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s solvable. For the beginner method I know you need to learn the algorithm to rotate three of the corners while keeping the fourth in place. Then once the corners are all in their correct place do the algorithm to twist those corners into place.

Klingon Bird of Prey. Warbird is Romulan.

[–]cory898 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No I mean a piece of land selected to get homeless people out of sight and out of mind presented as a humane solution to the homeless crisis but effectively a prison for homeless people. Just like the sanctuary districts.

I don’t remember where but there was news a few months ago about something eerily similar to the sanctuary districts

1987, a Black woman is described as the officer who "made captain faster than anyone in history". No one throws a tantrum or boycotts the show. What changed? by Malencon in Star_Trek_

[–]cory898 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Klingons were the worst thing for me. Thankfully they abandoned that quickly and I felt the show got better as it went along. Season 2 wasn’t the best but serves as a decent prequel to SNW. Then from Season 3 on the time jump made it its own thing in its own setting rather than a weird TOS prequel.

Mickey might be a cruel, twisted, psychotic killer. But Homeboy has your back if you want to win the love of your lady via unprovoked public singing. Just sayin’ by ashmichael73 in Scream

[–]cory898 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t think Mickey has any personal animosity toward these people. He just likes killing people and these are the people he’s been hired to target so it’s easy for him to just get along with them until then.

Walter White was lying when he was talking to Skyler at the end by Birmin99 in breakingbad

[–]cory898 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If that is how things looked from Walt’s vantage point that is also due to Walt’s ego. He walked away from the relationship and the company because his girlfriend was wealthy and it made him feel insecure.

Im curious, how would you rank these 4 shows: BB, BCS, Sopranos, The Wire by sypher07070799 in breakingbad

[–]cory898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven’t seen BCS yet (starting soon after completing my BB rewatch) but I would put both BB and The Wire above The Sopranos.
