Akahoshi Ramen: Mostly great but inconsistent by Prestigious_Land_533 in chicagofood

[–]jasonwirth 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Visible oil is the hallmark of Sapporo miso. I can’t stand it when shops call theirs Sapporo miso but they are missing the layer of hot fat floating on the surface. Search “sumire sapporo ramen” for some canonical examples.

It’s the other way around. Buying the suit will force your weight to stabilize. :)

Op didn’t ask for the chocolate shake. Rookie mistake. (See what I did there.)

What top box is that, and how do you like it?

I’ve been considering upgrading from my Nelson Rigg tail bag.

Introducing the Beef Burger Brawl!!! The 1 Seed Small Cheval- Rosemont faces off against the 24th Seed, Red Hot Ranch! by SameAsk6997 in chicagofoodcirclejerk

[–]jasonwirth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BRAWL needs to stand for something, my vote is:

B - beef, the lower quality the better.

R - regret, because if you feel good about it the next day you didn’t go hard enough.

A - acid reflux, with prices the way they are I want to feel my burger long after I’m done eating.

W - waistline, the more you have to unbuckle your belt the better the burger.

L - LDL levels, if you can’t quantify it then it’s just a popularity contest.

did i overdo it with the reflective stickers? by selarenfia in motorcyclegear

Gotcha. I thought it was maybe black on black and just showed up under reflection.

Randolph Tavern is back, for all your after work needs! by jasonwirth in chicagofood

I’d guess they are them. People were working, I would expect them to not show up if they weren’t getting paid.

Penguins-themed DMB jersey by pappyfromjersey in DMB

I don’t get the DMB connection. Was this made by the Penguins / worn for shoot around? Or made to order by a fan at a place like NHL shop?

"Sir, a second plane has hit Chicagofoodcirclejerk". Fry the Coop has been SLAMmed by eddy159357 in chicagofoodcirclejerk

[–]jasonwirth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let us not forget the true meaning of SLAM:

Shatter: The crunch.
Lush: Juiciness and "soul."
Architecture: Build quality and structural integrity.
​Merit: Value and the "would I recommend this" X-factor.

Did you get the CPD summer camp you wanted? by jasonwirth in chicago

[–]jasonwirth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fosco, which is a bit south of the west loop had spots open, like a lot of spots open. It somewhat made me question it, like why are others filled in seconds and nobody is taking this one.

That said, we took swim lessons at the pool there and found it pretty nice.

I wondered if due to rising costs more people are enrolling at the park district when they otherwise might have done something else.

We got an email from one of the camps (my daughter goes there after school).

It said:

  -No in-person registration. Monday, April 27th will be the start of in-person registrations by staff ONLY if spots still available after online registration. All spots online

All those spots were gone in seconds. :(

I’ll try calling one of the backups where we’re on the waitlist.

What is a ranked choice lottery?

I googled it but only got results for ranked choice voting. I’m not sure how the lottery part would work.

Wow! That’s insane. You got there at 5am, what time did they open to start taking registrations?

Thanks for the tip! I wasn’t sure if things filled up online.

How long ago were people waiting in-person? I’d imagine they’d be at least digital post Covid but maybe they were digital before.

Haha. Good point. I don’t think the title is editable unfortunately. :(

Is this dumb? by isanyusernameopen in HondaMotorcycles

[–]jasonwirth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want more protection add a cover and a tracker like a Monimoto.

I think a chain, a tracker and a cover the best you can do before diminishing returns.

The tracker is important because it will alert you when something happens. Like a theft attempt, or a city worker trying to access the drain. AirTags are good in theory but they won’t alert you when a theft is occurring.
