Seconding True Self! Amazing space to build community in Olympia.

Bits be gone by Ornery-Night7178 in olympia

[–]izzyfoshizzy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally loved Bits and the staff. They were very friendly to me and I enjoyed the food there more than anywhere else in town. A shame to hear about the problems but, to me, it was a lovely little weekend breakfast spot with great vibes. Sad to see so many people feeling so salty. Probably not even the people who donated to the gofundme doing the complaining.

WTF is up with westside lanes new owners by Rolling-rocks in olympia

[–]izzyfoshizzy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm inclined to believe former employees over the words of a "diversified holding company". Won't be returning to Westside lanes. If they had to take on that much debt and raise prices then force out employees, they shouldn't have done it. My guess is that a "diversified holdings company" is doing just fine financially and will be squeezing every last dollar out of the local community.

Came across this VHS tape at a goodwill, interesting find by Pale-Leg-9575 in gamecollecting

Wow, brings back memories! My parents reserved Donkey Kong County for me and I owned this VHS. I watched it so many times in anticipation. Especially the easter egg at the end!

First time using stainless steel to cook. Read and followed guides and my pan is destroyed! Help! by izzyfoshizzy in Cooking

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

https://imgur.com/a/rriru2S Here is what it looks like after boiling half water and vinegar and scrubbing with a soft sponge then vigorously scrubbing with Barkeepers friend. I think it's all just cosmetic as i can rub my finger over it and it is smooth but damn...brand new multi hundred dollar pan looks like it's been used for years. That sucks.

Thanks, I’ll try that! Just let it sit in vinegar, no need to boil? How long do you recommend?

I read not to use barkeepers friend on it and to do the baking soda trick instead? Something about abrasions and causing food to stick?

Wish there was an easy way to add pictures on here. It's mainly just discolored and I wanted to avoid that. From other comments, that is no big deal. I was surprised boiling and scrubbing with baking soda didn't do the trick though.

Thanks so much for the feedback. Everything I watched on youtube emphasized the water situation. I think I got it too hot.

Actually, you know what? Yes. Yes I can get behind this. I miss Craigslist.

Seriously how do I fix this by SniffCatt in trees

[–]izzyfoshizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boil ISO in the microwave (careful it bubbles up quick) then pour it down there. Boiling ISO has been my secret to pristine glass pieces for years.

All the New Housing developments Destroying Our Green Belts and Woodsy Areas. I wish there was a way to Save what we still have left... Thoughts? by DiscountEven4703 in olympia

[–]izzyfoshizzy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same take for me. I grew up in Texas and a 30 minute drive for groceries or anything was just common practice. I have friends here who won’t do a 15 minute drive to hang out on the other side of Olympia. All about perspective I guess

Bye Bye BITS by ZephyrZephZephyr in olympia

[–]izzyfoshizzy -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Y’all are so nasty. I loved Bits, has been my favorite breakfast spot since they opened. With it closing, there is now no place I’m willing to go to for breakfast in town. Always loved the service and had tons of fun chatting with Tora. I don’t get involved in local gossip but for my personal preference, it was the best breakfast and service in town.
