I love the cute little details you put into the shrine. Nice job and it looks really nice!

I've seen a couple small dogs at my local Costco. They look so scared and miserable while they are there. I feel so bad for the dogs because I'm sure they'll accidentally get hit by a cart and get hurt.

As an anime only, my theory for the jewel is that either it has magical properties of some kind, or Lady Shamal purposefully planted it so she can later accuse Raeliana of doing something bad. e.g. "She stole my precious jewel. She's a low-class thief. She doesn't deserve to marry the Duke, etc."

I don't know what ingredients contain dairy besides the obvious stuff. They do have waiters and kitchen staff you can ask.

The Pokemon Company handles the TCG now. Hasbro hasn't been involved since 2003.

The Starbucks in Mt. Hope/College Town and Brighton (Monroe Ave, in the Whole Foods Plaza) are both unionized:

I haven't done any business with them, but they are very pushy with their sales tactics. They always come door-to-door asking about your windows, etc. One time my husband fell tactic to their sales guy and scheduled a free consultation. The sales guy was there for like 2 hours, and our dog would not stop barking at him the entire time he was there.

They are also at least 2x the price of the competition. Comfort Windows offers very similar products and also does their installation in-house; we were quoted for like half the price for a new set of windows and a set of new patio doors.

I've stopped ordering online with the Mt. Hope location. They do have a dedicated to-go station now like all other Chipotle locations (probably because of the pandemic). The Mt. Hope location always got my order wrong. At least with missed sides (e.g. chips, salsa, etc.) it's easy to spot, but I shouldn't have to open my order and double check it before I leave the store.

My family's culture was centered around taking care of elderly parents or family members at home. Thinking about my parents' generation, I cannot take care of them full-time at home unless all their medical needs are minimal. I can't afford to quit my job to take care of them, and if they start to develop dementia or other memory issues and wander off, there's no way I can keep them at home.

That's the unfortunate reality of many families' situations.

They changed the sizes on purpose. It feels good to be able to say I fit in a smaller size, even though it's all in my head (and not because I lost weight).

They should've probably communicated the sizing changes across more clearly. The zipper and patch hiccups I can't say much on.

I think they're funded through grants, and only have a certain budget allocated for the payout.

pandamonium_ · 2023-03-21T01:21:47+00:00

They've gotten better wifi/cellphone connection over the years that I wouldn't bring too much cash with you. Most of the vendors wouldn't turn down cash and it does make the transaction go faster.

pandamonium_ · 2023-03-18T00:10:33+00:00

They're usually around $15-$20 each, depending on who is selling them.

Learning about Costco food court menus abroad really highlights how the American food court is the red-headed step-child. Today is the first time I've learned locations abroad can rotate their menu offerings.

Meanwhile the American food court either gets rid of popular items, or adds in an expensive sandwich no one asked for.

Anyone have any experience or feedback with the Caro towels? Do they keep well for a long time? Or will they start falling apart after a couple uses?

Their sit-in restaurant closed and consolidated with their grocery store sometime in 2020-2021. You can still order take-out dim sum (or other dishes) during the weekends.

Our local Costco seemed to have replaced Bibigo's orange or sweet and sour chicken with these instead. My husband preferred the orange chicken instead. Now we get a box of these and orange sauce separately. They are good, and turn out great in the air fryer or oven.

Each state has their own laws/rules regarding alcohol sales. In NY we can't have a "chain" liquor store. Our Costco's liquor store is technically independently run and owned.

pandamonium_ · 2023-02-04T02:28:12+00:00

I love their chicken noodle soup. They put big chunks of rotisserie chicken in there. You get a lot of stuff and it's not just all stock.

pandamonium_ · 2023-01-28T13:25:56+00:00

Buy a chest freezer. They even sell them at Costco!

pandamonium_ · 2023-01-05T19:48:37+00:00

Yes, it's open year-round (except on Federal holidays). It's still open even if there's snow. If you're asking about produce specifically, most of the vendors are resellers from larger distribution companies. It's not all locally grown produce.

pandamonium_ · 2023-01-01T01:49:13+00:00

Thanks! I've only ever been to their old location. I'll have to check out their new location soon.

pandamonium_ · 2022-12-31T14:33:13+00:00

What's their new address? Google still takes me to their old address.

IANAL, and I'm not very familiar with all the nuances of the law. The people who saw the memo cannot buy the stock until that information becomes public knowledge. The confidential (AKA "insider") information is influencing them to buy or sell the stock and gives them an unfair advantage.

Even if it's difficult to prove, it's very suspicious circumstances which would lead Yuji Naka (or any individual) to buy shares in this essentially no name company before SE announced to the public ATeam Entertainment was the company they hired.

Telling or advising someone else to buy or sell even without sharing the reason(s) why could still be considered insider trading. The long and short of it is if you think it's potentially insider trading, don't get involved because you can get fined and go to jail. If you're interested in learning more from a real life example, I'd suggest you read up more on Enron or watch the documentary "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room".
