I did once. Not a vacation, just a free overnight stay in Branson courtesy of my brother's job (we only live an hour away), and we had to be up early the next day because he had to check out of the room before heading to work. Breakfast was actually decent, though the buffet was packed with boomers.

People traveling on business is probably the real answer. I get it though, I basically never end up eating breakfast on vacation unless I buy something to chuck in the mini fridge the night before.

Mostly sure, but I've seen this even at hotels in fully resort type towns. Like yeah you *might* be here on business but the Vegas odds are that you're here on holiday. It just seems so weird to have such limited hours for a meal that the hotel basically slaps together for cheap and advertises as a perk.

Individual, who is being nosy about what neighbors are arguing about, is inventing excuse to get closer to neighbors to better overhear / learn what's going on, and is being humorous about how pathetically transparent the excuse is likely to be (offer neighbors chili, when no-one in individual's family knows how to make chili)

There were several main characters on twitter that related to these issues. I don't remember the rocking chair one. Coffee in the garden was rude because not everyone has free time (roughly), bringing chili to a neighbor was ableist (IDK), "bean dad" wouldn't show his daughter how to use a can opener and made fun of her online and people didn't care for that. I guess these weren't like 30-50 feral pigs and didn't break twitter orbit.

#21 I'd guess this is just scented distilled water. Distilled water is better for irons due to the (SUPPOSED) lack of mineral build up.

How much you need distilled/deionized water (same for these purposes) depends a lot on where you live. We have a quite large calcium content in our tap water, you can see a deposit in a matter of days of running an air moisturizer on it.

2 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I have been buying "ironing water" all my life. OK, it is distilled water and cost next to nothing. But when I use tap water it is going to ruin my iron (Bügeleisen) win nö time because of the high levels of calcium in our tap water. During university I used tap water without any problems. After university I moved and the tap water in my new area ruined two irons in no time until I went back for distilled water and had no issues ever since

2 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 1

I agree that using distilled water or periodically descaling is normal. I put vinegar in my kettle every now and then for the same reason. But this product probably costs much more than those, just because it claims to be specifically designed for irons. There are lots of "special" products that are just a more expensive way to buy the same thing, all because it is profitable to let people overpay if they don't know any better.

2 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Yeah I got a fancy iron (gravity feed) and have used distilled + filter and still got build up to the point it stopped steaming (cleaned it out eventually, but c'mon)
Problem with this product is it probably costs WAY too much for water + a couple drops of scent.

2 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

Won't buy this product either. Just simple distilled water is what I buy. Just wanted to say that there is a reason why people go to the store and buy what for ironing. And from that point it is only a few adds away from people to buy shit like this

Real question from a non American. How can you tell? I understood that SSN were not self verifying?

2 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

In the past, the first three digits of SSNs were assigned by geographical region. If the first three digits didn't appear on the list of available regions, it wasn't a valid SSN. That's no longer the case, though; they're randomized now. Also, there are a couple SSNs that can't be assigned to anyone because they were used in advertisements in the early days of SSNs, and people mistakenly thought the ad was assigning them an SSN somehow and starting using them.

2 years ago | Likes 19 Dislikes 0

In this case, though, it's not real because SSNs can't start with a number from 900 to 999, even after the change to randomizing the first three numbers. There are a few other restrictions, such as the first three digits not being able to be 666, and none of the groups of digits can have all 0s in it (e.g. 123-00-4567 is an invalid SSN)

You can get it changed for a handful of reasons. One of these is identity theft, in the event that less drastic measures to fix the issues caused by said theft have already failed. I'm pretty sure broadcasting your SSN on the Internet is one step past identity theft to identity "free give-away," though.

About 15 years ago, I had moved and my work accidentally mailed my w-2 to my old address. The current resident used my SSN and w-2 to file a tax return. I had to go through a lot of red tape to file the identity theft claim and was never issued a new SSN. Instead they mail me a unique code at the end of each year that I have to use to file my taxes rather than my SSN, so not every case of identity theft will allow you to change your SSN.

Technically, there is nothing stopping you from walking from one place to another, apart from the horrible stroad (without sidewalks) separating them. I remember doing this while visiting Kansas City, MO, and having a little old lady stop her car and ask me if everything is okay, and me having to explain that I'm walking from A to B.

It helps me to imagine the days of wagons and horses, because maybe it's like we've got almost entirely wagons now. Also, population growth has changed things. There are still walkable town squares at least, sometimes more, where you can conduct arbitrary business without driving. Those are only found in the center of what we now consider to be isolated small towns. Once there are super-walmarts and dollar generals and all sorts of wildly successful chains within a reasonable driving radius, 1/

2 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

the walkable businesses are often outcompeted, and then only an incomplete set of things is available by walking. Then if the town manages to grow instead of declining, it probably doesn't get to grow in the most forward-looking ways. It's easier to sprawl by forming islands one at a time, where a new business moves in and sets up shop on a patch of land that's less economically active than the new business plans to be. Sometimes they form strip centers and things, so that people only need to 2/

drive between clumps of businesses, or there are agreements between complementary businesses to build at the same time with adjoining parking lots and sidewalks, but at that point there are too many things that people need to go further away for, so they already have their 'wagon' and may as well drive it even a short distance just to have it safely and comfortably nearby. And it's not a community, it's just a clump of profit centers. Sometimes the only profitable pedestrians are tourists. 3/3

Also, most of these parking lots are closed off from each other because competition dontcha know. So you have to make the same loop to go to one of the other restaurants if the first didn’t work out even if they are next door to each other. This inspires road rage in me like you can’t believe. Or parking lot rage, I guess.

Like closed off with fences that you somehow can't walk around? I saw the pic and thought "okay, maybe that's a high traffic street/not really safe to jaywalk, but several of the other places could be accessed by walking on dirt while avoiding the occasional bush..."

Frequently, yes they are fenced off. Other times they might not be fenced off, but have signs up warning you they will tow your car if you walk elsewhere else. (That is not an idle threat most of the time either)

I was able to find that this is in Morgantown WV. In between the Cracker Barrel and the Red Lobster is the most treacherous walk. The ones on the opposite side (Cheddar's to LongHorn, and LongHorn to Chili's) are like 20 feet of 45 degree incline through unmanicured grass and shrubs. A fit person could go through, but some members of your family might be cranky if you make them do it.
