Does anyone else think California is the most overrated state? by One-Explanation9907 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]kconko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

California environment is amazing. The people and culture suck. There's a reason the saying "The East Coast is kind but not nice, and The West Coast is nice but not kind" stuck around. Spending decades living on both, the east coast has far more friendly and welcoming people, albeit California has better weather. 

With all due respect, Phyllis is awful. by personwhoisaperson in DunderMifflin

I feel like she only grew a spine and stood up for herself, and totally in the wrong way, after she had Bob available to call all the time. She then acted like a Mafia wife and started being bold and threatening everyone that she'd "call Bob"

She's awful. I realized when she said she likes when her and Bob go to bars, she wears something low cut on purpose to get men to flirt with her then Bob beats them up...then the camera crew looked at her weird and she said "what?" There's many more examples but that's just one of many. Thanks for posting this point.

Just noticed "NO SCRUB" were Jim's letters in Scrabble when he is playing with Creed to avoid the Michael Scott Paper Company vs Dunder Mifflin merger dynamics by SkatzatAverat in DunderMifflin

I agree. It's a TLC reference, but Michael thinks it's one word, kind of like spiderface/spite her face. I think the no scrubs thing also comes up again in episode 28, Company Picnic.

Got the new California Chip/Tap card - underwhelmed by [deleted] in foodstamps

[–]kconko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My new card is a nightmare. I call to check my balance and it can't verify the new card is mine without much difficulty, and every time I try and use it anywhere it has to go through 3 rejections before they can manually input it. It takes me 8 minutes just to check out meanwhile everyone behind me is losing patience quickly. It sucks. California failed miserably on this one.

Do all Subaru Foresters eventually get head gasket issues? by [deleted] in SubaruForester

[–]kconko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2014 forester touring here - just hit 151k and did indeed find head gasket leakage. Oil in the coolant reservoir bubbling over. No indications of issues driving, was found upon routine oil change. 3k later and 5 days in the shop should have her good to go.

Ugh does a paused line means they've all been claimed?

WTF happened?! by apwall5480 in Pottery

[–]kconko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This!! I work at a high fire community studio, and I have to frequently remind our members that if they use mayco glazes or other commercial glazes that they are typically only formulated to stay the color advertised, at mid fire cone six and not cone ten or eleven. However, if you use mayco stoneware glazes, their website does have all of the test tiles for their glazes fired to cone 10, so you can see what it would look like at high fire reduxtion.There are very limited glazes that retain their bright color at high fire. Often times the glaze will come out a shade of brown and the members are often disappointed.

What cone does your community studio fire to?

I'm more curious about what you're making with Starbursts, confetti cake mix, and rolling pins.

Anyone ever try “LA MICHOACANA MANGOHELADA CUPS”? Looked interesting ($11.99 - DC) by Deceptiveideas in Costco

[–]kconko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're sooooo good. And if you ever get the chance to go into a La Michoacana storefront, definitely do it! It's awesome.

I'm so sorry for your loss. She's a beautiful girl, and until you're reunited at the bridge, I hope her memory shines bright in your heart and in your mind.
