As your chart shows, the beer thing only matters at the surface level. Walk in to any major grocery store in the US and all of their 'micro-brews' are owned by AB inBev or Miller. Finding actual local micro-brew that a multi-national doesn't profit from requires going out of your way to find it.

It doesn't help that EA has the exclusive rights to make Star Wars video games.
I had issues with some similar stuff in rural Wisconsin last year. Not sure if that's where you are, but the naming scheme is similar. Single and double letters and the similar names are near each other. Confusing if you're not a local.
The whole PNW is covered in a blanket of smoke, not good odds anyone in OR or WA will be able to see it unfortunately.
I loved that whole series.
And yet he has the gall to claim that he was "waiting for more information/all the facts" before making a statement on Charlottesville. This shit is far from new, but somehow it never ceases to amaze me.
I was part of a lengthy discussion about sandwiches in the off-topic channel of a gaming group i'm in. Some of the highlights included: sushi rolls, chowder bread bowls, mac & cheese, poptarts. It gets really absurd because there is an exception to pretty much any defining characteristic of a sandwich. I'll try and dig up some of the logs from that conversation, it was a lot of fun.
I made it about a third of the way through this piece before giving up. It seems as though the problem is fear-mongering on the part of media and parents eating that shit up. Smartphones are just a convenient alternative to whatever kids before. And the last two generations of kids were said to not play outside either, but there was a different bogeyman to blame then. Same shit, different decade. But it gets the knowing nods of approval and agreement from older folks.
Where is this? Somewhere in Utah?
Yep. I have GIMP installed, and it's great for a lot of things. But it takes 30+ seconds to start up and I have to look up online how to do pretty much everything I use it for. When I want to take a screenshot of part of my screen, it's super quick to open paint, crop to what I want, and save the image. I can get it done start to finish in about 10 seconds.
Being "not Obama" seems to have been a winning strategy for the Republicans so who knows any more.
MOO?
every time they don't have something in stock, send an email complaining about it. you'll almost always get a $5 credit.
Congratulations, you've been pre-fired from Walmart!
My Republican parents had 5 kids. The four of voting age vote Dem or 3rd party.
Is your birth center in Seattle or LA? I can never keep up.
She's over in Columbia City. About to move her shop up the street to Hillman City.
It has its ups and downs. Overall she's much happier running her own business than working for someone else.
Can you handle months of 40-45F and light drizzle with almost no sunbreaks? It's nice to not have to deal with ice all the time but the persistent grey really gets to some people. Seasonal depression is a real thing here.
Shameless plug: my wife runs a frame shop. Really small operation, just her and a single part-time employee but she does great work. Not sure what your budget is, custom isn't cheap. I too am glad to have the rain back. The cold was fun at first but so many days in a row at or below freezing is rough. Definitely nice to pull the raincoat back out of the closet.
Goddamn that's ridiculous. I didn't realize how bad this kind of shit was until my wife wanted to get a new sign on the front of her business. She sublets part of a space and the larger business already has a sign out front, hanging above the sidewalk so in order for her to have a hanging sign, it would have to hang from the existing sign. Obviously lots of safety concerns there. But the process is so insanely opaque and arduous. First she has to get approval from the local historic district council because they wouldn't want anything to ruin the charm of the neighborhood. And that's understandable, but they have no clearly defined guidelines and meet at 1PM on Wednesday once a month and when you run a business yourself and have no employees that means closing up. Oh and they'll overbook their agenda for these meetings so they might run out of time and fuck you, wait til next month. So she fills out the application and goes to the meeting and they tell her she needs a full artist rendering of the completed project from multiple angles and closeups of the sign itself and because she didn't already have it she'll have to pay an extra fee and "oh whoops, you didn't know you needed that? so sorry we didn't inform you sooner." So she gets all of that done and goes back and it takes 2 meetings to get her approval but then its contingent on the city's DOT approving it because it hangs above a sidewalk and of course they didn't bother to tell her that before and she should have known. But of course the DOT has its own list of guidelines and requirements and only meets once or twice a month also during the day on a weekday and they won't approve anything on the first try just to make you squirm and even once you do you have to go back and talk to the historic district assholes again and at this point you're already almost $1000 in the hole for a sign that hasn't even been made yet and fuck it the sandwich-board sign on the sidewalk is good enough.
You play X-Wing?! I sunk a bunch of money into it a couple years ago and now have no one to play against. The closest FLGS doesn't have any players and the stores that do are too far to get to regularly.
I haven't bought anything the past couple of waves. It's ships I don't care about and I don't play hardly ever anyway, much less try to keep up with the meta. The comparison to MTG is pretty stark. Watching people toss boosters into the trash by the dozen looking for good cards really turned me off of trying it out at all.
Haha holy shit my horror stories mostly involve Limewire, this takes it to a whole new level.
