If you get a cool mechanic they'll sometimes let you take a few pulls off the nitrogen hose. Ask me how I know.

IMHO they should do the onions like they do the sauerkraut. Those little containers would hold enough chopped onion for a dog.

PBUC.

This is outrageously wasteful. Bring back the dispensers.

I doubt it. It�s just a screw at the bottom of a hopper, right? Steel foodservice equipment like that usually disassembles easily for cleaning.

If cost-cutting is the driver for the Great Onion Change of 2018 then on the face of it this doesn�t make sense. It�s way more labor to portion and pack a bunch of cups than it is to fill a hopper.

This ignores the outrageous expense of white onions in TYOOL 2018.

Here's a hot take, bitching because a Scotch is blended doesn't make you more sophisticated. This obsession with single malt is just a stupid whisky snob thing from when you could get a really good or a really bad bottle depending on the malt you chose. Master distillers are able to create rich tapestries of interesting flavors in blended scotches more readily than a single origin whisky could on its own (cognac in particular is another spirit where the blend gets you the depth of flavor).

Also holy poo poo this obsession with peat flavor - I agree that none is bad, a little is good but more reaches the point of diminishing returns and you get to these bog monsters that taste like you're drinking liquid smoke and chewing on dirt: it will absolutely and utterly overpower every other subtle taste in the distillate. It's why the obsession with increasingly hoppy IPAs doesn't make you a beer connoisseur; you just learn to like literally one (initially unpalatable) flavor and your palate is totally absent beyond that. Learning to like something that has one strong flavor isn't a sign of sophistication.

Many of the blended whiskys are among the best in the world and it has nothing to do with marketing.

Sir, this is a Costco food court.

Finally broke down and ordered the bidet, it's the last day of the sale. I haven't told my wife yet and we've never discussed the idea. I think she'll laugh at me.

No plug in the bathroom, so will need to run an extension cord until I determine that it's going to work for me then I'll install an outlet.

I have weird American shame/anxiety about buying this thing that I've never tried but by god everyone swears by it. Hilariously enough, this is the comment on the slickdeals thread that sold me on it:

If you're not running it to a GFCI outlet then make sure you get an extension cord with a GFCI feature on it. Should run you like $20.

Or be killed by your own bidet. Your call.

I should be able to tap into the light switch and put an outlet in off of that, right? Think that will reduce the work involved greatly if so. Should be able to minimally impact drywall and such if so.

But duly noted regardless.

Sorry bud, that's over my pay grade. I know two things:

1. I would do anything my rear end-washing robot asked of me, including murder

and

2. It's adamant about being plugged into a GFCI outlet

Also re foodsaver the suction on mine went to poo poo a while back and it is a real struggle to get it to seal anything, very annoying. I have cleaned the gasket etc but still nothing seems to help. It was great for storing costco meats etc!

Did it get married?
