At least in this part of FL (Gainesville) the one KMart near me is the exact same kind of dystopian shithole

The movie 'The Big Short' is on Netflix and was a fun way to learn about all of this (re: the financial crisis/housing bubble) I'm not an expert but it seemed at least reasonably accurate

Drove past the local shithole Kmart this morning and it's still open with a surprising number of cars in the parking lot. Guess this one is surviving for now

whiteyfats posted:Gainesville has the Oaks Mall, which was used to be cool and good in the 80s and 90s, but the last time I was in there, it was nothing but poo poo aimed at (rich) college students and upper middle class white people. I don't think the Oaks Mall is that bad (as far as malls go), there's nothing even remotely high end that I can think of in there whiteyfats posted:It used to be better, back when it still had Waldenbooks and B. Dalton. Used to have a movie theater and a big rear end fountain, too. If you're talking about Gator Cinemas (the dollar theatre in the oaks plaza but not inside the mall itself) that closed last year due to some apparently awful infrastructure issues that would have cost too much to repair PallasAthene posted:Is the bigger Books-A-Million with the nice cafe still open across the street from Oaks Mall? It is indeed. I've only been in there once or twice, last time was a few months ago and the wife and I were the only people in the store at like 630 on a weekday. It was a pretty sad looking place. Maybe two employees in the whole store.

I hate confrontation and being a supervisor in a call center for 10 months was one of the worst things I've ever had to do. So glad I don't have to be the boss anymore and can just hang out and crunch numbers while listening to music

canyoneer posted:Bingo. That's pretty much what I used Blue Apron for. Their recipe cards are very, very high quality and tend to explain things in better detail than most recipes you find online and I end up using ingredients/techniques/preparations I wouldn't have thought much about otherwise. The wife and I got a few weeks of their boxes mostly for inspiration (and out of laziness, to be fair) and I've learned several things that I incorporate into my every day cooking that I wouldn't know to do without having ordered some stuff from them. I imagine a lot of people are in the same boat as me.

I thought Gallagher got replaced by his twin brother years ago e^-1: apparently that got stopped in 2000 but was indeed happening for a while quote:In the early 1990s, Gallagher's younger brother Ron asked him for permission to perform shows using Gallagher's trademark Sledge-O-Matic routine. Gallagher granted his permission on the condition that Ron and his manager clarified in promotional materials that it was Ron Gallagher, not Leo Gallagher, who was performing. After several years, Ron began promoting his act as Gallagher Too or Gallagher Two. In some instances, Ron's act was promoted in a way that left unclear the fact that he was not the original Gallagher.[6][7] e: the poetry on Gallagher's website is amazing Mr. Penguin by gallagher | Jun 16, 2015 | Poetry | 0 Comments This is an open letter..From the bottom of the globe ..Could you call me Mister Penguin .. Becuz I'm wearing my best clothes ..All my Penguin friends are also ..In their black and white tuxedoes ..We live where it's sooo cold ..Even in summer ..there's ice and snow... kumba has a new favorite as of 15:02 on Mar 7, 2017 |

jeffLebowski posted:Yeah. Vinyl is actually quite big of late. It's sort of a pushback against the whole 'death of the album, all digital, all a la carte' mentality. It's not for everyone but there's definitely a sizable market out there for vinyl these days. The only thing I can think of is gifts. If you know someone is into vinyl but you aren't yourself, I could see someone going to a Best Buy if they don't know any better

Agreed, I've eaten burritos from Chipotle twice in my life and both times I wondered why I just paid like $8 for a tortilla filled with bland rice and barely anything else in it. At least 70% of the volume of my burrito was rice both times I went gently caress Chipotle, Moe's superiority

There is one (e: a Kmart) like 3 minutes from my house (Gainesville, FL) and I don't understand why anyone goes in there. I see cars in the parking lot constantly, but the few times I've actually walked in the store I get really depressed and leave after like 5 minutes. poo poo is sad. There's usually an entire back corner of the drat store with no lights on and nobody seems to give a gently caress
