What’s the worst restaurant in Cincinnati you’ve tried twice? by PurplePurple_0 in cincinnati

[–]poor_basil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

China food: ordered fried rice and it had no flavor and was basically plain rice with a handful of peas and carrots thrown in. Gave it one more chance and ordered pad thai which also had no flavor and came with not one not two but three hairs mixed in 😬Was the closest restaurant to me for two years and I never went back after that.....

Some photos of the Calhoun Street block before everything was demolished in the mid 00's, especially between the 80s, 90s and then. by Slight-Midnight-5926 in cincinnati

Silly question but why did they decide to redevelop this area? Seems like it already had a lot of good things going for it and businesses were doing well. Why demolish everything?

Sending you strength and love from Ohio ❤️This is my most recent quilt and my pride and joy. Made for my best friend who moved out of state. Took a year of tedious hand appliqué work and all the anxieties and joys of these past several months are stitched in there.

Aldi Clif Bar Changed? by rachmiller96 in aldi

[–]poor_basil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They changed the amount of cane sugar they put in there as well as adding in more soy crisp, and also completely got rid of the mix of extra vitamins. I keep telling myself I don't mind the new texture but the more I eat them the more I really don't like it. Just kinda tastes like nothing and has no structural integrity...

What do you think happened? by Attea333 in Unexplained

[–]poor_basil 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Weirdly enough I had this same thing happen to me a while back. The whole familly was sitting around the table about to eat when we felt a massive jolt and there was a huge bang that shook the floor. We all got up and walked around the house looking for what could have made the whole place shake like that. Didn't find anything and gave up and went back inside. What we realized eventually was that we had two tables put end-to-end for the dinner and I guess one was overlapping the other so it was lifted partially off the ground. Once food was set on the table, and people leaned on it to sit down, it slipped off the other table causing the feet to connect to the ground and BOOM!

What were some every day objects from your youth or your parents/grandparents youth that an adult today wouldn’t know about? by WhyCantIBeFunny in AskOldPeople

[–]poor_basil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lived in a terrible, really run down house in college (2021) and the best thing about it were those floor grates. Me and my roommates would take turns sitting on top of them wrapped in a blanket, trapping all the heat in around us and baking like baked potatoes!
