Often though, they’re sampling the same stuff that is objectively good. Pizza, sausages, popcorn, perogies, etc. What they aren’t sampling is the weird stuff that you’re not really sure you want 6 tons of. Do I really want 2 buckets of pumpkin spice cream cheese? I might if I knew it was any good or not.

If you are going to idle outside a shop or business, please turn off your headlights!

I've always wondered how annoying it would be to have a home that directly faces oncoming traffic. I assume it has to be a deal breaker if you realized it before buying.
Like these homes facing dual lanes here at Sifton:

Compounded by the fact their backyard faces east… And most likely a few million.

The gear grinder is invalid or at least they are mad at the wrong person. They should be mad at Costco for intentionally setting up stations in crowded areas designed to make shopping more difficult.

Gear grinder is invalid because the only person you get to be mad at is yourself for deciding to go to Costco.

I saw an Ad on Instagram for a local roofing company, with a guy talking in front of his truck with his logo on it. While he was talking about his company, you could hear the truck idling in the background of the ad. Truly a wtf.

Never too soon. It should be side-by-side with chocolate milk year-round.
