Figure out how to repair a pothole the first time.

Early this year there was construction at a corner in our neighborhood which required a small cut into the street. They just filled the small (maybe a square foot) area with asphalt and called it a day. Well that settled from cars driving over it, so they then sawcut out a 3'x3' area and "patched" it. That also started to settle/rut from the traffic. Last week they saw cut out a larger 7'x7' area and put back the asphalt. I am guessing that they thought the smaller patches did not need an actual steam roller to smash the asphalt down. Hopefully this time they did it correcltly, cause the next "fix" will be taking out half the intersection.

Lmao. As someone who did this for 5 summers it's not rocket surgery.

Teenagers walking their dogs at 1 mph while staring at their damn cell phone the whole time. That dog deserves better.

Sadly, it's not just teens.

Or walking the dog. I frequently see a couple walking together with their heads buried in their phones. Look up once in awhile, or heaven forbid, TALK to one another.

I'm sure @offdee is just swiping right to set up another date for as soon as he can get rid of this one.

Turns out it is kind of rock science though.

I’m getting frustrated at Costco checkout now. I’m sure this is for loss prevention but they have to switch carts now so all your stuff goes from your cart to a new one. Even though we have tons of refillable water bottles, my boys and wife (maybe me a little) plow through the Costco ones so I get them a lot. Half the time the rip the lining and the other half they put them in the top of the cart all the way to the back. I have a method to putting stuff in the cart to make it easier to pack my car (water is always first followed by rest of boxes then loose stuff) and they just don’t care and if pisses me off. I leave the big stuff in the cart during checkout. Feel free to look around but leave my cart alone.

Ask them to get you 2 new carts. All the misc on top goes into cart #1, All the water bottles go into cart #2

Semi-related, but the Sam's Club app is perhaps the best app I have ever loaded onto my phone. No lines, no interaction with the cashier, no issues. Its worth triple the price (free) on weekends when the store is packed.

Wegman’s or another grocery chain just did away with self checkout app due to higher losses. I’m certain that’s behind the cart switch at Costco, so don’t be surprised if that app goes away. If the economy gets any worse with higher prices, loss prevention will grow.

Don’t want two carts, just one the way I like it!

I would be shocked if the app goes away. About a month ago, they started having "sales" on items exclusively for those using scan and go. They are actively pushing customers towards using it.

They have people posted at the exit with a scanner. They scan a QR code that pops up on your phone after checking out on self pay. Their scanner then displays how many items are paid for and the complete list of items. They then randomly scan a few items to verify they were paid for. After verification they hit ok on their scanner and the QR code disappears from your phone.

I wouldn’t. It’s a great idea but when stuff starts getting tougher and tougher, high prices plus higher credit card usage plus the Fed ratcheting up rates to slow stuff down lead to more people stealing stuff. A checkout app without RFID/tracking tech like in those Amazon cashier less prototypes is going to be prone to loss. It’s no coincidence that Costco’s policy change on moving everything to the belt and switching carts on heavy things is happening now at the same time as Wegman’s is stopping their self-checkout app (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/18/business/wegmans-self-checkout-shoplifting.html).

Sam’s could be testing it out to see how much losses rise and if the cost savings make sense (less employees needed).

When stuff like Sonicare brush heads are $59.99 for 8, people will start stealing more. Don’t worry, so always buy them when there is a $10 coupon, but they used to be $39.99 before coupon. Inflation is a *****.

I get it, but still, it’s not hard to slip things in and hide them. I love the idea because I don’t steal stuff, but loss prevention isn’t about me or you guys.

Costco has self checkout lanes, which aren’t the best for once a week or two people like me with tons of stuff and heavy items like a bunch of waters. They check your list but there’s no sensors so it’s still a bit of the honor system and not every checkout person counts/sees everything. Anyway, I’m not saying it will go away because maybe they’ve added more security not seen, but there obviously are cases where retailers are seeing an uptick in losses.

I'm guilty of it too, but those disposable plastic water bottles are absolutely horrendous for the environment. We've switched almost completely to hydro flasks and just fill those with our filtered water at home. I know it's not as convenient, but neither is the sea level rising by two feet.

We recycle everything but we drink a lot of water. It’s pretty much all my boys drink even when we are out, so they grab water bottles to go all the time. Even my wife and I do and at least at home she and I are using our refillables. It does still bother me.

I will add that my oldest son is almost done with college and he uses a hydro flask as well so there’s hope for my other two. I think they’ll have to go that route.

“Does this look okay?”

Yep, looks great.

“Or the black one?”

I like the black one too. Can’t go wrong with either of them really.

“But I should do the sandals instead?”

Oh yeah. Definitely. The sandals really bring it all together. You ready? Waze says 45 minutes.

“I feel like the sandals would look better with the red one though.”

Yeah, maybe. It looks great either way. I’d tell you if it looked bad. Looks like this place has good appetizers, holy cow I’m getting hungry.

“You just say stuff to placate me.”

I guess I’m not crazy about the red one. You always look hot in black.

“What’s wrong with the red one??????”

I’m going to go outside and drown myself in the pool.

“**** you!!!!”

I'm not suggesting you plan out her outfit for nights out in advance. I'm saying when she presents 2-3 specific options to you, just be ultra confident and pick one. Adding in the flirty line just helps your confidence show in the decision. Even if she goes with something else, you made your choice without hesitation. That's what she's looking for in that scenario. She asked your opinion....have an opinion.

If you are pulling out of a parking lot (my local wawa for example) - you are making a left, i am traveling on the road and will be turning left into the parking lot, when you see my blinker that is not an invitation for you to pull out in front of me causing me to stop short so I don't run into your dumb ***...... I HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY

I love this move. So long as both parties are game, it makes life and turning way easier. No need for you to go around the car pulling out and you both can make your turns almost simultaneously.

This. My coworker brings two or three plastic water bottles to work everyday. We have a ****ing water cooler 15 feet from his desk. Plastic water bottles should be for emergency situations only. Otherwise, drink the ****ing tap water

Old Man Rant:

The lawn service that my neighbor uses is a hack. Completely tears up my lawn on our lot line, scalps his lawn and blows clippings onto my yard. So very tempted to put down rocks/spikes to keep him off my lawn.

FWIW... I have mentioned it to my neighbor, but he's a rooster, so does nothing.

Does the service truck have a name or phone number on it? Call them directly yourself and make the complaint. Or put up one of those blank yard signs (like people use for rummage sales) and write on it "Lawn Service- call me before cutting close to this sign (your number)"

family photos today. barely made it out of the house alive.

my choice of clothes "totally threw off" what everyone else was going to wear. no idea that jeans and a sweater would be so controversial but holy **** was it ever. just happy it's over.

Lol at family photos. One more reason for me to never get married again.

How did this "throw off" the others? Were you all wearing matching plaid or something?
