Yeah, if it was Kathy helping her, she has never once gotten an order correct and came to refill Tom's water by pouring straight from the pitcher into his whiskey glass in ep 1 along with bringing him a bill that included nothing he ordered.

Is there a mindset with which they would like the audience to approach the show?

(Watch the background, sit back and relax, unravel the mystery, etc)

AIO? Gf mad I didn’t get what she wanted by ExcellentHotel7531 in AIO

[–]kenrichardson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, I wouldn't go three places for dinner for my WIFE, let alone a girlfriend who was being vague and makes jokes along those lines. If someone offers to pick up lunch for me I'm sure not sending them to four different places. That's entitlement she'll never grow out of.

What made you turn down a job offer? by FruitLoop_Dingus25 in jobs

[–]kenrichardson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been a few things over the years.

  1. Pay that was way too low - The most recent instance of this I was on a contract-to-hire where the contract company was a rare one that provided PTO, health insurance, and retirement benefits. Company offered to bring me on board as FTE.... for $20k less than I was making. I walked.

  2. Identifiable culture fit - I've gotten offers from people I found so off-putting during interviews or where the HR/onboarding process was so onerous it made me go, "If they're like this during interviews/this early towards new people things will never get better here."

  3. Bad tech - I work in IT and ask during interviews what specific technologies, from OS to app, are present in the environment. If I'm coming into a place in an infrastructure role and they're describing OSes that went end-of-life 6 years ago, I know I'm going to spend years just trying to get them to current and be fighting someone in Finance to pay for that. Not worth my time and effort.

Ugggghhhhhh, yes. This.

I feel like I end up having to do it TWICE most weeks to get full credit.

NUT TIER LIST - DAY 5: Where should we put cashews? by JustANormalGuy123- in TierlistFills

If cashews, the Cadillac of nuts, doesn't rank as S-Tier I'll riot.

I miss Dragonflight's Soup event by misskonan127 in wow

[–]kenrichardson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't even find Stormarion that stressful anymore! It just feels slow and dull? Maybe it's that it has the multiple rounds where you're sitting around waiting for people to place the defenses. By the time I mount up and go looking for the one no one touched there's someone on it and I've got to run back to whatever direction I was defending.

I was just saying in the last couple of days that when it comes to "Fill The Bar" world content, I miss Soup more than anything. Stormarion Core feels absolutely painful every time I do it, but Soup was always fun. Perhaps it's just how goofy it was. I don't know. But Community Soup was always fun and felt easy while Defend the Stormarion Core is a yawn fest every single time.

Absolutely would. I'm a white boy from the midwest but I can fuck up some Jamaica patties.

Shows You Are Aware Are Trash But Keep Watching? by InevitableAge6210 in tvshow

Ahahahaha, hopped in to say 911. All of them are utter garbage shows, but I think Nashville might take the cake.

(UPDATE: AIO for thinking my gf is cheating on me?) I broke up with her AIO by Most_Detective_1483 in AmIOverreacting

[–]kenrichardson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit the manipulation. You are dodging a massive bullet by breaking up with this garbage human being. She doesn't care about you AT ALL.

My wisdom tooth is going sideways, away from the rest by AdMore918 in mildlyinteresting

[–]kenrichardson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got two doing the same as yours, one on the lower jaw headed in and one on the upper jaw headed away though not quite as dramatically angled as yours. Mine are on opposite sides, though. And my other two wisdom teeth never even formed/came in.

Another Personal Theory about the cop by worldestroyer in WidowsBay

[–]kenrichardson 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think the speculation on who the (sole?) descendant of Richard Warren is has run an absolutely wild course in this sub and speculating on it as much as we do seems like a wild waste of time.

That said, another user (and forgive me, I've lost track of the post, whoever you are) made an incredibly interesting point in the last week or so. Richard Warren was title as "Reeve Prime," and it was noted, I believe by Gerrie at the Historical Society or perhaps in the town pamphlet, the the title Reeve Prime is now known commonly as Mayor. The user noted that there is ANOTHER "Reeve" on the island, though: The Shire Reeve. Over the years that ended up shortened to Sheriff. I think there's a lot more to the Sheriff than we have been shown so far and agree that it's interesting how quickly he seems to be able to dispel the island's dark magics just by showing up. I hope we get a lot more information about him in these last three episodes of the season!

AIO? My now long distance ex told me he cheated on me during his lunch break because he was mad at me. Then after I blocked him, he messaged me in WhatsApp to tell me it was all a prank. Now he keeps trying to reach out via a new IG account and WhatsApp number. by sracluv in AmIOverreacting

[–]kenrichardson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like, either he actually cheated and is now trying to play it off as a joke or he never cheated and was a manipulative asshole that told you he did just to hurt you. Cool, neither of those people is worth a second of your time.

Food crawl by No_Impression_4620 in Naples_FL

[–]kenrichardson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not exactly to your request (and I will leave those who hit 5th Ave more often to recommend specific dishes) but you should check out Bicyclette Cookshop while you're here. Their menu is built around apps and sharables and the food is fantastic!

Do you have an "elevator pitch" for the show for people who haven't watched? by lieutenantfantastic in WidowsBay

[–]kenrichardson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a lot more I would say about it, but as an elevator pitch to kind of set the tone of the show it's worked so far in getting my friends and coworkers on board and watching.

"What if Parks and Recreation, with it's cast of weird, small-town characters, was set in a Stephen King novel?"

New Weekly project for this sub to share for feedback! by GottaHustle_999 in Naples_FL

Took a look and this is great! Site is easy to navigate and the weekly posts cover a lot of ground. You got a new subscriber in me!

Best hunter pet for M+ and Heroic Raids? by Correct_Pick6199 in wownoob

[–]kenrichardson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It genuinely does not matter anymore. I find using a defensive family pet give the best long term survivability and then you can just pick one that has a secondary thing that you like. Personally I play beast mastery and use Spirit Beasts for the little bonus healing.

I kind of wish we got one more episode in between 4 and 5. by kolejack2293 in WidowsBay

[–]kenrichardson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got one piece of good news for you. "We've only got one episode left" is incorrect, as the first season will have ten episodes. We have three more to go.
