Woah, good call. I’ve been watching for a sale on those toilets and I bought two, figuring Kohler would be good since they’re a brand name and all, but the reviews on Amazon are terrible, all of them say it doesn’t flush well. They’re unopened so I guess they’re going back. I guess I’ll get an American Standard then.

I've gotta say, installing an American Standard toilet feels a little disrespectful. Shouldn't it be named the Confederate Memorial or something brand?

Before they merged, American was from Detroit and Standard was from KY, so you’re making GBS threads for the Union on one of those.

The one important thing to keep in mind about the vormax line is that for whatever reason, they only sell one design at Lowe’s and a different single design at Home Depot, so if you don’t like the design at blue/orange hardware store, check the orange/blue hardware store

You can’t flush a chest freezer just leave it in your backyard and it will become a raccoon habitat

Just want to let you know you're not alone. I don't know how he does it, but my 9 year old son clogs our terrible builders grade toilet every single time he takes a poo poo. Replacing the toilets in our house would be a big quality of life improvement.

Costco bathrooms have the correct type of urinals. The ones that go all the way to the ground. Always a nice piss when I'm there.

Made a "90 day anniversary at the new job so time to spend some money" run to the 'Co yesterday. 99.99% customer mask usage (one dicknose). Two members of staff without masks: a cashier and a lady whose entire presence said "I'm on break." Got some new headlamps for camping, an inflatable SUP for the kid, and the wifi-enabled air purifier that this thread assures me can detect farts. Oh, and Aiden's Organic Root Beer Float ice cream bars. They're incredibly soft/aerated; like licking a root beer flavored cloud. Wonderful. Deli is under construction, so no communion.

zombietools.net makes a quality poop knife. Extra long handle to keep your hand out of the poop water. Slight back curve on the blade to get down into the drain.

Don’t know it’s seasonal but the Costco Pecan pie is awesome, otherwise they usually have that big tiramisu cake that should be a crowd pleaser

I've given this a lot of thought recently: the church rotisserie chicken is, and I don't say this lightly, the best price/value/taste combination in the world and I will fight anyone who disagrees. You can get nicer food and you can get cheaper food and you can get MORE food but never, ever all 3 of those in the same fantastic ratio of price/value/taste.

The smart and final version is as good and easier to get since you don't have to go to Costco to get it lol I'll get one a week and its just as good IMO.

Ah well I have to admit that we don't have one of those less than an hour away. It's the same price? If so, I might have to check this place out. Our Costco is rarely crowded and parking is good, and fast with self checkout, but I have to be honest that the way they force you to interact with a person in the self checkout is wack and takes a point off the convenience factor for sure vs. a more traditional supermarket with a self checkout. e: I did some sleuthing and it is apparently $7, I dunno that's a significant premium https://www.smartandfinal.com/shop/product/first-street-oven-roasted-jumbo-chicken/604570 though it is the same stated pounds of the Costco chicken (3lbs) Taima fucked around with this message at 02:01 on May 21, 2021 |
