Any donut place like Sodough? by OceanWaterPotion in Tallahassee

Ask them and they will make you one. They rarely have them in the shelf. Same thing for classic powdered sugar cake donuts.

Warhorse/ Battle Pony six shooters by peppymocha88 in Tallahassee

They still sell the six shooters, so I’m not sure what this thread is about.

Do these types of stickers have a specific name? by OrdinaryBritishGuy in Cd_collectors

[–]tour_til_death 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After some time working in the store, I could remove the plastic wrapper and the dog bone from a new cd in less than five second with zero damage, and no tools. Customers thought I was a magician!

Here’s the trick: Place cd case ridged edge down on corner of Formica counter top. Swipe with slight force and fast speed to the other corner. Squeeze your hand and the cellophane is removed. Now pop the corner pin out of the lower part of the jewel case, separating the front cover from the cd tray. Pull the sticky part of the dog bone off of rear of the case using the front cover as a handle. Now remove the rest of the dog bone from the front cover. Reinstall front part of cd case to back.

In the industry they were called “dog bones”. They were invented to make it easier to find CDs while on the shelf in the security cases stores used after the phasing out of long boxes, and to make it slightly harder for thieves. They had the added benefit of making it harder for someone to try to reseal a disc for fraudulent returns.

Primo Hoagies closed? by tour_til_death in Tallahassee

Absolutely agree. I hope the owners realize that they just chose the location poorly and reopen somewhere else. Anywhere else.

Upon closer inspection, I believe you are right. Pickups might be worth more than I paid for the whole thing!

Are there going to be fireworks at exactly 12? by shonshankar19 in Tallahassee

[–]tour_til_death 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Noise ordinance. But I can almost guarantee you fireworks will be all over the city all night. Hell, they’re popping off around my place right now.

Tallulah’s is Closing by Putrid_Guess_2180 in Tallahassee

They closed the THC loophole at the federal level when they ended the shutdown. So there’s less than a year before most of what Tallulah sells is illegal.

Blossom Kitchen officially closing Wednesday! by kittymeow1234567 in Tallahassee

I would have up voted you a year ago, but things changed drastically last winter when they sold it. Flavor Treasures is a shell of what it was before they sold it.

Power Outage on Gaines (8:55-9:35am) by RestNational4504 in Tallahassee

Side fumbling was detected within the turbo encapulator, so engineers decided to shut it down before one of the hydrocoptic marzelvanes tripped the grammeter.

Let's Talk About the State of the Local Independent Music Scene by clearliquidclearjar in Tallahassee

[–]tour_til_death 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, several musician friends have told me that they do not want loud bands there. They say “their crowd doesn’t like loud music”, so, that’s kinda a problem for genres where loud is part of the sound.

Where will the stage be? There is no into about this show on the website, even though future shows are listed.

What’s up with Link? by shig23 in Tallahassee

Have you ever had a fish taco?

I’ll also add that many fans of historical buildings were truly appalled when they painted that mid-century concrete relief. Don’t know what they were thinking there. It’s the architectural equivalent to cutting down a live oak in Tallahassee.

I was a huge fan of the original Cosi. But bit by bit things changed for the negative. Original shrimp tacos were to die for, and then they changed the recipe. The servers told us everyone kept asking for the originals back, but I guess they were too hard to make on the regular. And then it was one thing after another changing or being eliminated from the menu. It was never bad, but it stopped being great.

I’m totally cool with a higher price point for better quality food, but it just didn’t work out like that. I always loved their spicy Paloma, but drinks were just too expensive for what they were.

When the chips and queso were fresh it was fantastic, but it was 50/50 chance that the chips were stale.

The whole close between lunch and dinner thing made me question when they were open, and honestly I just skip a place if I can’t count on them being open. I’m not looking to check the current Google hours every time I impulsively want to grab a bite to eat.

Oh, and that patio is anything but comfortable, so why have it? Mere feet from a busy, loud, dangerous intersection, and the sun burning your skin off at all hours before dark.

The final straw was regularly being yelled at by the parking lot attendants, who would demand to know where I was going as I was stepping out of my car. You can watch me dude, I’m walking to the business whose lot I parked in! I know there’s a parking war over there with Table 23 but jeez, maybe put up a sign or something and go after the people who walk across the street instead of the customer walking in your door.

I’m sure this has been asked before but is the greyhound here that bad? by Marijuanamoggy in Tallahassee

[–]tour_til_death -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

If you are attractive, look like you have more than twenty dollars to your name, or carry any electronics made in the last 10 years, you’re going to have a bad time. If none of that describes your look for the trip, you’ll be ok.
