You should've just said "Is it because I'm a [MINORITY],isn't it" and then walked out after looking appalled.

When I was around 4 or 5 years old we went to Costco and my mom bought a bag of those little red coffee straws that had around 10,000 of them in the bag. With regular use from my mom's coffee in the morning and me using them for various other drinks that bag lasted us until my last year at college when I finally used the last one. Costco has literally been keeping me alive and hydrated since I was a small child.

You do realize you can drink without straw in case of emergency, right?

There is a 2L one sitting in my fridge right now

Pitiful.

Metro, the kinda german equivalent of Costco, but for business owners and freelancers only, has this



10,2L for 8,55 EURO.

It makes real good meatloaf or meatball but not an old fashioned American burg

e: BJs sells this meatloaf mix that's a mix of ground beef, pork, and veal. It's real good. I imagine Costco has something similar but I haven't actually looked. I've been using a lot of ground turkey lately.

How aren't your burgers dry as poo poo. Ground beef is wayyyy too lean,I usually go for 80% beef 20% pork.

The above is not a burger.

It's a "Frikadelle".
If your burger contains breadcrumbs, parsley, chives, worcestershire sauce and or eggs for binding, you made a Frikadelle.

I had one running every day, it took my vacuuming down from twice a week to once a week.

However, I have a stupid raised floor in the center of my house, so I would manually have to move it from room to room.

Also my dog would attack it while it was running and that got old really fast.

The most effective thing to do is brush your dog regularly. You can decide if this is more work than vacuuming.

So these work with any kind of rug?

Part of the reason I like Costco so much is because they are a good company, so no.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism.

Should have bought a Nerf MG42 with tripod.

Sadly, the German equivalent to Costco, Metro only gives out memberships to small business owners and does not carry nearly the cool things you guys have. There is a house brand, but it only extends to food, kitchenware, paper towels, toilet paper.

We have the Jamon, but it's 80€.

Australia - even a lovely $300 built in oven will be fan forced. So as long as a kitchen has been remodelled since like 1985 it'll have a fan in it.

It hasn't stopped the whole air fryer craze though.

I don't think you can buy electric or gas ovens that don't have convection settings in Europe.

My wife owned an ancient rusted oven that did convection and was probably sold in 1975

Convection ovens here are very much not standard and you pay extra for it. I just got one last month and I feel like I'm from the future now. In fact when I went oven shopping in November it was the first time I ever saw home user convection ovens.

I paid 500 for one in our old flat I practically gave the landlord for free upon moving out.
