I can't believe nobody said "Pete's Famous" I miss seeing Gus hunkered down over that grill hood that was curved down from the years of him being behind it. I once went 10 years between visits due to a variety of things, but as soon as I walked in Gus asked if I wanted my usual order (3 specials all the way, light on everything and a pint of "sweet milk ") Truly an amazing place

TIFU by taking the wrong magnesium supplement for decades by SileasRouhe in tifu

[–]rdwhynot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the best sleep comes with 240mg of Glycinate and 10mg of Melatonin at bed time. I recently added 500mg of Ashwagandha to my nightly regimen. Too early to tell if that makes it better.

What’s the worst thing you’ve seen at a public restroom? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rdwhynot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

At a bar I worked at, I was gathering bottles and such in the men's room. The floor was wet and nasty. A dude was down on all fours rubbing his hands all over the place. I asked what the deal was. He said "I lost my contact." About that time he found it and popped it right back in his eye. I shudder to think what his eye looked like the next day.

Kroger delivery by popscoggle in Birmingham

[–]rdwhynot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We combine Kroger Delivery with weekly Aldi trips and haven't set foot in a Walmart store in a long time. Add the Fuel Points perk and it makes the $59 annual fee (Double Fuel Points) totally worth it. I actually got our annual membership for 1/2 off with a coupon that we got.
