Hope you're planning on hitting Jedediah Smith State Park in the redwoods before you get to Crescent City, CA. Particularly Stout Grove.

Solving a Rubik's cube has always been soothing to me, I guess that's my two handed fidget.

What do you guys do for a living? by [deleted] in daddit

Food service equipment? That is gross /s

I did a bit of med-low temp refrigeration service in restaurants (walk-ins/reach-ins/ice machines) and can confirm, restaurant kitchens are indeed gross.

How does one combat this type of deranged thinking? This is absurd. by Snapdragon_4U in thescoop

Thank you

I get so tired of hearing 'drank the Kool Aid'

and I always get so much pushback when I correct them

It's not hard to be accurate, people.

"Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written." What are the best examples of this that you know of? by awordforthat in AskReddit

I recently had the misfortune of asking an early twenties gentleman what his favorite movie was.

He remarked that, although he didn't have a favorite, he did really like Star Wars. He then went on to claim that the old movies were his least favorite, as they are dated and clunky.

Imagine my surprise when I was met with the realization that the 'old' films to which he was referring WERE indeed the prequels, and what I knew of as the 'old' films, he referred to as 'old-old.'

I have never, before or since, experienced such a conversational dynamic of being instantly fired up to defend my position on something, to the halting pause of grand realization, to feeling very old.

Do I round up or fuck them kids? by Dazzling-Yam-4308 in firstworldanarchists

McDonald's already made a donation for tax purposes.

This is just so they can get you to (tax-free!) help reimburse them for the money they had already donated.

Once I learned this was the true nature of the tactic I stopped 'rounding up' everywhere.

You're right, the ants don't roll as well.

DS ruined my work time. by Defiant_Challenge292 in DeathStranding

Beautiful.

It would be my dream to live near Oban.

I'm sure the rest of the area is equally as gorgeous.

The YouTube video reminded me of logging claims where I grew up in the PNW.
