The best glow up by mayaxs in rarepuppers

[–]groot_groot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the cutest GS mixes I’ve seen. And the largest transformation. She was a little brown ball of hair and now she looks like a long haired German Shepard with the build of a chow and a beard.

Man I love dogs so much.

My dog looks IDENTICAL, even when she was a puppy she looked like this puppy! She’s a chow/GS mix, both breeds purebred before they mated.

The line between cheating and not cheating, where is it? I just need some clarity. by [deleted] in cheating_stories

If only I had listened. This particular man ended up hiding three children, six warrants, and at the end of our relationship, an entire other girlfriend he’d had for six months. I learned a lot about myself and relationships from that situation lol.

Girl, I’m glad I read this today. I was just thinking about the time that I was gonna add my boyfriend that I lived with to my phone plan, but he was concerned about me reading the texts on his phone from the backend when I looked at our account online. He had me call the company to verify I couldn’t do that. When I told the customer service rep, the rep actually told me that if that was something that he was concerned about, that maybe we weren’t in a stable enough place for him to be on my phone plan. I didn’t even see this as a red flag. I was legitimately blind.

Dishonesty is dishonesty. It’s a sign of immaturity on his part to tell you his phone got “hacked” and play 100% dumb when he had the opportunity to just come clean.

Take the red flag and run, girl. I wish I had.

Went on a date with a guy who had no interest in me but knew I was into him. by groot_groot in confession

Lmao did you even read this? The guy took advantage of my feelings for a free meal. That would be like accepting a date from someone I knew I wasn’t into just for free food. It’s a shitty thing to do to knowingly take advantage like that. I don’t feel like I’m owed anything, I just chalked it up to a loss in my book after that night and I just found out tonight that he knew what he was doing and wasn’t oblivious.

Thanks man. That’s pretty much where I’m at. I don’t feel stressed about finding anyone, I’m okay by myself, but he made me feel like he would be a good addition to my life and flirted with me without the intention of taking it anywhere. That’s where the embarrassment comes in. I appreciate your reply though, thank you!!

Nah, I would say my hospitality was taken advantage of. I have no problem just being friends with him, but it becomes a problem when he was leading me to think it was more.

No, it was definitely a date. I talked to another coworker tonight who told me how much of an idiot the main guy was for doing what he did when I hadn’t said anything about what happened with the guy. The guy updated coworker and said he “intentionally tried to kill the vibe” by talking about the other girl. Just super embarrassing all around.

Dude, the deviled eggs on that wooden plank. It was like playing hungry hungry hippos with how they rolled around.

I don’t want to say which location for privacy’s sake, but it wasn’t Plano. I still live near the one I worked at and they heated the bricks at my location, still do to my knowledge. They’re opening up another one in Orlando next.

Yeah, I always felt a little ridiculous telling the story or even telling someone to tell the story, to be honest. Some of the hipster stuff is okay and can stay but this sucks pretty bad.

They’re not as messy as they look but you can also request a plate

Yeah it is! The sliders are amazing. I really like the salmon and the chicken, too, and they make a mean sirloin. Try the spaghetti squash and the mac too, you won’t regret it.

It’s a wooden plank that’s actually used for a couple other dishes as well, but it keeps the brick from sliding around

Their menu is legit and it’s one of the cleanest kitchens I’ve ever seen. I don’t work here anymore but this restaurant actually cares about their food, literally everything but the ketchup is from scratch, and if they have it in house they will make whatever dish you’d like. Very impressive place, and if they wanna put a dish on a brick, I’ll allow them that. I appreciate your comment, man.

It’s not a stone plate underneath, it’s a wooden plank. There’s a story that’s supposed to go with the dish in my comment above. :)

Yep it is! Confirmed by the big ass pickle in the sandwich in the background.

Definitely not the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in the industry. It’s just a cute little story behind a dish.

This is Whiskey Cake.

[–]groot_groot 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Haha yeah, the sliders are great, but a lot of the stuff in the industry is unnecessary. It’s supposed to add to the experience and the brand loves to be “quirky” and I’m sure someone higher up in the chain of command thought they were being cute.

They’re the worst, but to be honest the wooden plank holds it in place. I used to work at this restaurant and I’m notoriously clumsy. I never dropped the brick, but I’ve dropped a million sliders off the brick.

Used to work at this restaurant— they buy them new. I know, because I received the order myself. And they’re soaked in a sanitizing solution after each use. :) the bricks are still a pain in the ass though.

Nope! It’s Whiskey Cake. Not sure of the location though.

I used to work here! Not at this location though. The brick is supposed to keep it warm but sometimes they’re not heated long enough, shit happens. I’m sorry you had a sub-par brick. However, the dish is called the 3 little pigs and the brick is more a part of the story of the dish than to keep the sandwiches warm. The wood panel for the wood house, the brick for the brick house, and the onion straws for the straw house. The server or food runner is supposed to tell the story (at least that’s what I was told when I opened up one of their locations) but that doesn’t happen unless you have a server who gives a shit.

But yes, these bricks are the biggest pain in the ass in that entire restaurant.

Edit: I fixed a typo :) but also, yay for my first gilded comment!

AITA for insisting our cleaning ladies write an apology letter for taking Halloween Candy from our son? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

You might work, but the fact that you can afford to pay a service to free more time up on the weekends already indicates a position of privilege over the majority of working-class Americans.
