I really would not have made my post if I'd known it would upset so many people. I haven't lit a fire like this in the 'co thread since I mistakenly said the food court pizzas were made in actual pizza ovens.

One time i guesstimated the cost of a cotsco (flannel??) Item at around "$9 or $12ish bucks" and some goon got mad at me for not knowing the exact price of the item. Like god drat!

The hoses are specifically designed not to scratch a car's paint.

He's saying gravel, sand, and other abrasives adhere to the hose and then when its dragged across the car's paint they scratch it up, not that the rubber hose itself scratches up the car.

Maybe they should live in a state that you can pump your own gas AND doesn't have gravel goblins coating the hoses in dastardly sand and rocks :smug:

One time I got gas and the guy accidentally filled me up with premium instead of regular and I got all flushed and super mad for like 5 seconds. I could hear myself starting to ask for a refund when another part of my brain interrupted and said, "hey. I did the math, and it's like a friggin' dollar." I got super apologetic to the poor guy and we left the engagement amicably.

We got Haunted House for the Atari 2600 when I was a kid, and my father thought it was so lovely he took it back to Sears. The guy there started into a prehistoric version of the "Sorry, sir, we don't accept opened software" but my father ripped into him until the guy, tears in his eyes and sniffing up snot, gave him his fifty bucks back. Don't ever be like my father.

Costco SUP report: The Bodyglove 11' Inflatable SUP was a HUGE hit at the lake. The non-removable fins make it a little more bulky than it should be, but it's otherwise pretty perfect. Also, saw well over 30 other versions of it on the lake, many with different decorations on the top. Must be a super popular seller when it shows up.

The only thing that frustrates me about the 'co gas pumps is I always seemingly am stuck in the line where people drag the hose across their trunks because the tank is on the other side of the car. Every vehicle I have ever been in has an arrow on the gas gauge to indicate which side the tank is on. Don't make me wait longer just cause you don't wanna wait with the other GMC owners. This lane's for passenger side tanks, bub!!!

You'd really be cursing me out, since I go left because the lines are shorter and pull that super-long hose over the bed of my truck. And then I have an F-150, and it takes a long time to fill because the tank is 36 gallons.

I'm curious, though.... how does the gravel get on the rubber hoses in your state? That's a new one.

There is gravel all over my city from construction, and sand from gritting the roads in winter. It gets stuck in tires and dispersed everywhere naturally. Probably the same thing?

is it milk chocolate or dark chocolate?

trip report:
the milk tea brown sugar boba bars are back in stock but i did not buy because they’d probably throw my macros off :qq: there was also a couple of boxes of yakitori desserts, like a creme puff but waffley and in yakitori shapes. if i had better self control, i’d buy them up for sure.

i also saw some ice cream sandwiches that looked SO GOOD!!—cookies n cream ice cream between basically two giant oreo cookies.
i went in looking for some regular degular smegular fries but costco only has SWEET POTATO fries?! come to think of it, i’ve never seen regular fries (but i’ve also never looked for them).
picked up a rotisserie chicken and shredded the breast. man, this chicken is dry. im glad im eating it with the caesar salad from the refrigerated section.

I got home with my costco groceries and was going to reward myself with a delicious treat of a strawberry filled croissant but it had too much filling in it so I drove back to the costco and crawled over the counter back into the bakery area and beat an old lady to death with a pizza peel.

The only thing better than the dog and drink I had today was the supervisor at Costco being extremely apologetic and agreeing that the dude was acting like "a shithead" and is supposed to verbally confirm the amount of gas he puts in each car and blaming the customer is unacceptable. They said they'd talk to him, but who knows if that's even true, probably not. And I got my money back too. Thus ends the saga of the evil gas man.

Also I got some of the raspberry crumble cookies. These things are god-tier.
