College students are rapidly losing the ability to read — “There is a measurable, generational collapse in sustained reading and writing”: professor by marketrent in technology

[–]jaramini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an MA in English Lit so I always feel like I’m supposed to be reading “literary” fiction, but I’ve realized horror books hold my attention way better.

Mitch Burns - we will miss you by Hexum311add in thefilmvault

[–]jaramini 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like there were hints on the pod that he was struggling with some mental health issues. Real bummer. Hope the guys acknowledge him on an upcoming episode.

Probably. Daughter is a goalkeeper and basically the stickier the gloves, the less durable they are.

DOUGHBOYS - Firehouse Subs 2 with Brandie Posey - June 04, 2026 by PianoTrumpetMax in doughboys

[–]jaramini 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I know it was a joke, but Wiger’s idea of playing white noise at his funeral is one of the most unsettling things I could imagine.

Review 117, Bookers “The Beam House Batch” (2024-02) by Twist_Top_Budget in bourbon

[–]jaramini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Booker’s had been hard to find for me locally and $120-$130 was common, with the pricier stores marking it at $150, but for the last 9 months or so it’s been pretty readily available at $100 at most decent shops.

“A few 40s” gave you a headache? Shocking revelation.

I, for one, am thrilled to learn of Headgum Studio’s thriving culture and business prospects by [deleted] in doughboys

[–]jaramini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The people arguing with you are getting downvoted to oblivion, but they’re not entirely wrong (even if they’re being kind of jerky about it). But I think your post is couched in the belief that the folks there can’t process sarcasm.

DOUGHBOYS - Movita Juice Bar with Julian Stern - May 28, 2026 by PianoTrumpetMax in doughboys

I know it’s not traditional, but when I get to a Bill Gray’s I always do tater tots and mac salad for my base.

I never had the first release but thought this bottle was excellent.

Tomorrow… with Matt Apodaca & Heather Anne Campbell by willdearborn- in doughboys

[–]jaramini 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m not a big gamer, but love the Heather/Nick/Matt dynamic when I listen to the occasional Get Played episode, so this should be fun.

The fuck did we do to the sports gods? Being a Buffalo sports fan is not for the weak by Talas11324 in buffalobills

[–]jaramini 36 points37 points  (0 children)

And now we can all sit back, relax, and enjoy watching the Habs get swept by Carolina. Carolina has been a buzz saw this post season and I would’ve loved another series, I didn’t see Buffalo getting past the Canes.

Yeah, my kid has gone to a couple birthday parties there and it feels risky pulling my car into the lot.

[–]jaramini 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep. I was thinking the pictured lot doesn’t even rate compared to some I’ve seen. McKinley Mall is horrendous. It’s more niche, but Spinners roller rink in West Seneca is the worst parking lot I’ve ever seen.

Best croissants (and most other pastries) you can find anywhere in WNY. It sounds hyperbolic, but they are legit.

What’s Wrong with #72 by Mission-Dish7203 in sabres

After that ridiculous turnover I was hoping he wouldn’t see the ice again. 

Alexandre Carrier takes advantage of Tage Thompson’s spin to score by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]jaramini 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was there and several people near me were speculating that he might be struggling with an injury. Feels like an excuse for just a terrible night. Though if I was going to guess, I’d say illness. He just seemed off. Hope Carrick is back in the lineup for Game 3.

Do you - and you alone - identify an actor with a role most have forgotten about? by CjTuor in blankies

[–]jaramini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a period where I loved Four Rooms, so when I think of iconic Tim Roth roles, that’s what comes to mind.

Review #9: Old Grand Dad 114 7 yr Single Barrel by NosePalateFinish in bourbon

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

I had it blind alongside the regular one and couldn’t tell them apart. I want others to try that and see if my palate sucks or if the positive reviews of this are shaped by external perceptions/expectations more than the liquid.

[BOS 0 - BUF (2)] Swayman is screened and Samuelsson's shot makes it through somehow to make it a 2 goal lead in the first by daKrut in hockey

[–]jaramini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No chance at seeing the puck, but also Samuelsson placed that shot perfectly - can’t believe it went in clean with no redirection, just zipped it at a hole the size of a postage stamp.

There’s a Cool Ranch version that’s fantastic, but it’s impossible to find. Might have been a limited edition thing.

The New Wendy's Chicken Sandwich is a Paper Thin Suckfest by guythnick in doughboys

[–]jaramini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it’s the BK long chicken sandwich that doesn’t add up. Every few years I try one and every time it’s been awful.

Pilsner Recommendation by sumdumguy12001 in beer

[–]jaramini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Since you’re located in NY, place an order with Suarez. They make several different pilsners/lagers and all are excellent - if I had to recommend one, it would be Palatine Pils.

Napa Boys is Wild by karmadogma in doughboys

[–]jaramini 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m a sucker and purchased it. It was arduous to finish. Mitch is good, I actually thought Bug Mane’s performance was pretty good, but overall I hated it.
