pencilhands posted:serious question, what does the "plus" mean? Are they implying you might get a heftier dog? Unfortunately the whole item is the 1/4 pound hot dog Plus Soda w/ refill The "plus" is referring to the the soda and not describing the hot dog.

Hello thread, I’m probably late to the party, but the Kirkland bacon, egg, and cheese frozen croissant sandwich’s are fantastic. Wrap it in a paper towel, 1:30 in the microwave, and breakfast is handled.

TBH, the only way it really makes sense is if “¼ POUND PLUS” is the product name and “ALL BEEF HOT DOG AND 20 oz. SODA (With Refill)” is the product description. Still, it’s best not to question the Word of Costco.

It's called "1/4 POUND PLUS" because every thousandth hot dog is a full two pounds. I thought everyone knew this. They ring a big bell and everything.

Wrap it in a paper towel, 1:30 in the microwave, and breakfast is handled. I do both the croissant breakfast pastry and the bacon egg and cheese croissant sandwich in our toaster oven together at 325 for 10 minutes for perfection. Husband and I have a fancier feeling breakfast a few times a week that way :3

Luckily I find all area measurements to make no intuitive sense so square feet, square meters, and pyeong are all equally meaningless.

Grams/Milliliters are dope, you don’t have to ever worry about fractions. Fahrenheit makes more sense when it comes to weather, unlike Celsius. 0 F? It’s really cold. 50 F? It’s pretty reasonable. 100 F? It’s really hot. Celsius isn’t so simple for that.

The good part of it being -40 out is you don't have to specify the units! The bad part is all the freezing to death outside

Medicinal Penguin posted:The good part of it being -40 out is you don't have to specify the units! I've been out in the mid -30s F, and with the right coat and long underwear and gloves it's unpleasant but not unbearable. The important thing is the gloves. Once you lose feeling in your fingers, it's hard to get out back without going back inside.
