Wife and I bought a 55" LG TV with some Costco gift cards from work.

It's awesome and fits perfectly above our fireplace mantle.

Why are Costco stations a lawless wasteland of inexpensive gas?

my local one is always very well ordered and efficient

probably because my state doesn't generally let people pump their own gas

Cuz life sucks, kids. Get it while you can.

It wouldn’t be so bad if people realized you can go to any pump because the hose stretches.

It's not hard, Vern. That other line went through two cars before you even stuck the nozzle in you old gently caress.

Last year for a White Elephant gift I gave a Sherpa Throw. My wife not being very creative got another non-sherpa blanket as her gift to give.

This year that other blanket was re-gifted with a giftcard attached...

I grabbed an ice fishing shelter and sled last week at the local Costco, but unfortunately had to go to another retailer to locate a propane ice auger. Looking forward to using all three and pulling up some pickerel.

Costco pizza rates a 4/10 but the only thing that beats the $2.50 slice + drink combo is the dog

Costco Pizza is a 9.5/10 for me. I love it and it's better than actual NY pizza. Only deep dish is better from, like, Angelos or Chicago Deep Dish which is 10/10. And 40g protein!! GETTIN' DEM GAINZ, BRO!!

That Youtube video explains what kind of pizza Costco makes pretty well. If you prefer a crispy kind of pizza, Costco's pizza won't do you any good. But if you want a loaded pizza, you're in luck.

I really think their pizza used to be better a few years ago. I think the crust is too thick now.

8/10 imo. But not many places in the U.K. do a decent pan pizza. So their competition isn’t hard to beat.

Per the Cube Rule a hot dog is a taco and a hot dog wrapped in a pizza would remain a taco.

oh god, “dry brining”is a thing dumbasses do now to lovely meat their fat asses bought at Costco?

I don’t want to live on this planet anymore.

It's called dry brining and not just "seasoning" because it's done by a specific weight ratio for a planned culinary end result, you iodine deficient cretin.

Costco also clearly labels their meats with the grades & packaging dates, ensuring customers' access to the highest quality product should they seek it.

But for you, they have a great variety of frozen dinners to choose from.

So what does one do with the pork loin they sell for $1.99/pound? It's like 2+ feet long, with a 6 inch diameter. I've never seen a piece of pork in that shape.

If you gently caress up the ratio, would you or others say that you “over dry brined” or “overseasoned”? If you can overseason and underseason foods, doesn’t that also suggest there is a proper ratio involved? :thunk:
