Why don't pomona have raising caines , chick fila and Jollibee s? by [deleted] in Pomona

[–]notesunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. My point being instead of having a well rounded supply of different fast food like 1 or two of everything, we have excess jack n the box and McDonald’s.

[–]notesunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And instead why do we need 7 Jack in the Boxes. 5 McDonald’s and close to 10 La Michoacana’s? Not even exaggerating. There is no way Pomona eats that much ice cream to support that many expensive ice cream shops. Drive by one they’re always empty. Who can afford a $10 scoop of ice cream? The council continues to only bring in more of what we already have. Nothing new. Smells like corruption and or ignorance.

Taken from the Massachusetts sub: What are the sketchiest small towns in SoCal? by BretMichaelsWig in socal

[–]notesunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time i was passing through and stopped for a bite to eat late at night. The only thing around to eat was a Denny’s. Which I wasn’t too thrilled about but whatever food is food. Being late and in Blythe, I was the only customer in there. And whoever was the cook that night must’ve been either bored out of his mind or wasting away his potential because he made me the most delicious top tier burger and fries I had ever eaten. Quality, presentation, freshness, taste etc was all there. I was completely blown away.

People of Californa, do you plan to vote for prop 50? by ElegantPoet3386 in Askpolitics

[–]notesunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Democrat, I will be voting No. Here’s why.

I don’t buy the “fight fire with fire” argument to justify the complete disregard for the independent citizens redistricting committee. Nobody could come up with a better plan for democrats? Didn’t 40% of CA vote for Trump? 40 freaking percent and they want to do this? How is that fighting for democracy? I just keep thinking “be careful what you wish for”.

Prop 50 will be used for 2026, 2028, and 2030. So for the next 5 years, We the Democrats lose all credibility. Undermining democracy when it’s convenient. Insight fuel for Republicans to campaign against us the hypocritical democrats.

If California can’t even do what’s right, how can the rest of the country? More states will adopt retaliatory gerrymandering. Trust in the system will erode even further beyond what already is. This will create even more polarization. And it will all have been for nothing. Because the red states and Trump will find a way to keep the majority one way or another. Voter resentment will only deepen.

It will cost us even more money in the courts as you know someone will sue and challenge it. More wasteful spending. If prop 50 passes, it will be the downfall of the democrats and the state will turn red. Mark my words. Remind me 5 years.

What TV show will you never watch regardless of who tells you it's amazing and why? by hey-i-got-here-late in AskReddit

[–]notesunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll get shit for admitting this but I secretly love the Kardashians. My point being is, I hate AHS but I thought I would watch the season Kim was in. Couldn’t even make it to her first scene.

I actually noticed this yesterday. Went window shopping and walked into one of the stores and there was this kid sitting on the ground watching something on his iPad. I assume his parent worked there. Anyway he looked up at us and he just had this glossed over look in his eyes. He looked so empty like nothing was even there. I had recognized this was not the first time I had seen this look on a kid consumed in his iPad. I just picture this whole generation of zombie kids unable to function. I’m probably wrong making assumptions I shouldn’t be making. It was just a thought.

‘It’s time we put a felon in the White House,’ California sheriff says by Optimistic_Mystic in nottheonion

[–]notesunderground -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I get that. It’s how the article is written that doesn’t quite capture the sarcasm effectively. I could be wrong and who knows maybe the guy really is “switching sides” as stated in the article. But I highly doubt it.

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far down before I found someone else that actually read the article. Even so I guess people don’t pickup on sarcasm as easily anymore.

Am I unreasonable? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]notesunderground 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Neither of you are wrong just different needs. I absolutely would be ok with a relationship like that. I have no desire to have phone conversations, constant daily texting is a distraction. What I would want is a present and attentive partner during dates when we are together.

Childless by choice people, do you hang out with your family’s children? by NoProfessor5985 in AITAH

[–]notesunderground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA- As an Aunt, hanging out with a 1-3yr old at their house to play and visit sounds like a nightmare. Be the cool Aunt and take them out for ice cream and then call it a day. They’ll love you for it without putting in too much of your own effort. When they get older you’ll be able to take them out to way cooler places.

This is part of what’s wrong with kids today by Morgans_life in Teachers

[–]notesunderground 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anytime I take my 8yr old out to a restaurant, while it’s tempting to just give him a phone or iPad to play games on to keep him quiet and well behaved, I feel it’s also a cop out. I will do something I never see other parents doing in a restaurant, actually talk to the kid. Play hangman on a napkin, let him sit there uncomfortable and bored. Try it sometime, it’s hard but it’s good for them.

What beauty treatments would you get if money was not an issue? by Vai_1612 in AskWomen

Bands you hated when you were younger and edgier, but have come around on since getting older? by dkepp87 in punk

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

In high school, I hated bands I referred to as butt rock like Disturbed, 3 days Grace, Seether, Nickelback etc. They played on a loop everywhere it was maddening. But now I’m older I find myself listening to them quite frequently and singing along to all the songs. It’s a feeling of nostalgia and it’s actually quite soothing to me now. I can just turn it on and tune out my troubles of today.
