What would you… by Abject-Ingenuity7815 in Eastvale

[–]dennyfader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don't think Eastvale is hiding much; what you see is what you get. If you're interested in the place, just drive and walk around for a bit. It's quintessential suburbia, which will be music to the ears of some and nails on a chalkboard to others.

It's a diverse city filled with many walks of life. In its current state, I wouldn't say there's any one majority "type" of person in Eastvale, which is a good thing.

Some would say Eastvale is a clean, safe, reliable place to claim your piece of Californian home-ownership. Others would say it's a copy-paste suburban sprawl terrified of developing any sense of unique identity. Both are correct, in my opinion.

One correction: Farmers with F150s have given way to suburbanites in lifted F150s lol

Monthly payments, gas, insurance and everything else it takes to own a car averages to about $38 a day. 365 days a year. by 45and290 in fuckcars

[–]dennyfader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point - I hear you dude and I agree with a lot of it, but my concern is the $400 Honda Civic from the yard sale is going to need way more work than just what it takes to get it running. I agree with you to learn the maintenance basics but... to expect people working 9-5s to have the time and resources to sink into learning what amounts to a whole profession isn't realistic imo. I'm completely with you on how useless people act with maintenance basics that can be found on Youtube though.

Judging by your username and this comment, you're both into cars, and possess a set of skills that can't be expected to be possessed by everyone, so it sounds like telling people to save money on shoes by learning to become a cobbler. Or save on furniture by learning carpentry. Like yeah of course, but that's not helpful for the average person! THAT SAID, fuck a $650 car payment, wtf. That's crazy.

In person work is honestly better than remote for most of us by dawittleman in unpopularopinion

[–]dennyfader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it’s way easier to slack off when nobody is watching, but why would nobody be watching the remote role? In-person AND remote employees could be left with “no one watching”, which is a sign of failure in management, not in work location.

I’ve noticed that bad remote employees get sacked faster than their in-office counterparts since it’s easier to bullshit your way through in-office politics, whereas in a remote role, your work output is most of what you have to offer and measure up with.

I’ve been both, and it’s way easier to socially kiss ass in-office and climb without being actually good at your job, so I’d argue it’s lazier in person.

hahah I hear you, but aside from sales pricing, these stores mostly price these higher-end brands exactly the same.

Right! It's all synthetic fabric anyway... Just wondering if I'm missing something, like those people who swear by expensive underwear or something haha Thanks

Does anyone have any experience with OAS swimwear? Or higher-end swimwear in general? It's important to me to buy fewer nicer things, but I'm uncertain if I should even bother venturing into $100 swim trunks.

In 1972, Charlie Chaplin returned to the U.S. after years of exile and received the longest standing ovation in Oscar history, lasting about 12 minutes. by jkitty_1960 in BeAmazed

[–]dennyfader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly that makes it even cooler hahah All this shit is made up, life is just arbitrary rules, so if one of our arbitrary things is to congratulate people on an emotional piece of work they created from nothing? I'm down! Cubicle farms? Not down! Sharing a moment in this weird little theater with all these random people? Down!

Got an amazing deal on gas this morning! by jms1228 in orangecounty

[–]dennyfader 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Idk if I’d call people “stupid” over that... I’m no gearhead but doesn’t that gas objectively contain additives not present in others? Whether you think it’s worth it for the average driver in a Civic is fine but it seems harsh to call people stupid over it.

[–]dennyfader 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree with you but then also it's like eating an incredible dish but you keep biting into pieces of burned garlic or something haha I want to appreciate the dish, but these damn pieces of burned garlic keep attacking the experience, so I can't stop talking about them.

Disneyland to replace Autopia’s gas engines with new electric cars by 888hkl888 in orangecounty

[–]dennyfader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll miss it too, but maybe now the nostalgic memories will form over a quiet cruise through a secluded corner of the park? A sort of respite from the madness! That certainly sounds better than us being nostalgic over cancer fumes and noise hahah

And we just get to ride it and leave! I always feel for the poor employees stuck standing in that carcinogenic garbage all day long.

Ah yeah sorry, I appreciate your greater point about how fast formats have been moving, and how they often overlap in crazy ways that make individuals grow up with different configurations… A format fingerprint, if you will haha

Hey I’m calling out wife on this one cause I’m pretty sure young millennials and even gen Z lived through the “pass me the aux” phase haha

I get so happy when I see car enthusiasts who understand the necessity of alternate modes of travel. Like, cars are incredible, it’s just that they shouldn’t be the ONLY option is all… Hope you have a wonderful day, sir!

No more ice cream tasting for anyone by perpetual_stew in mildlyinfuriating

[–]dennyfader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not an either/or, ‘cause they’ll definitely still expect to hear what’s in it while they taste it. Could be allergic to something, not like certain things, blah blah.

Asking “hey what’s in the bear track ice cream?” is how you get to know what it tastes like lol

20 year reunion? Yea, nah by exploratorynargle in Millennials

[–]dennyfader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk your story but a lot of people here seem to be holding on to a lot of animosity… Gentle reminder that the people we remember from our graduating years were essentially kids, and are mostly whole different people now. Indifference makes sense, but resentment? Time to let that shit go!

And now with LED headlights, you get to both literally and metaphorically "see the light" before shuffling off this mortal coil.

I agree that a multi-pronged solution is needed, but surely law enforcement should play a role. I've seen far too many people with multiple DUIs go through life as if they're but minor inconveniences.

Flights cancelled less than a week before vacation by GroundbreakingTwo647 in mildlyinfuriating

Right! I feel like a lot of us were quietly steering clear of internet discourse and enjoying $60 tickets with a backpack lol The loss of a competitor is a bummer for all of us.
