Actually, Kirby vacuums worked amazingly well and worked for years, if not decades. But they weighed a ton and could NOT handle pet hair.

Not on youtube, download PlutoTV app. Paramount’s old stuff, including game shows, Star Trek, Twilight Zone, lots of ‘60s and ‘70s shows, plus some documentary and DIY shows. All free and really easy to waste LOTS of time watching!
Any ad that runs on youtube. Literally. All of them. You have paid for the privilege of ruining my enjoyment of whatever I was trying to see. Eff you and the product you rode in on.
I watched The Princess Bride and couldn’t understand why it gets so much love. I found it really gruesome and unfunny, and Robin Wright’s princess was bland and unlikable.
In the Texas, you can ask for “half and half” tea. You’ll get a mixture of sweet and unsweet iced tea. In a huge glass with plenty of ice. And free refills.
If you want hot tea, you need to ask for hot tea. Most places will bring you a couple selections of bagged tea and a too-small pot of not-hot-enough water. Hotel restaurants are known for bringing out a huge caddy of various tea bags for you to chose from. If you want milk/cream in your hot tea, you’ll have to ask for it, it’s not assumed.
Pistachio nuts!
I need to send this idea to our new nephew-in-law. Our niece walked down the aisle to the music from the movie!
It comes in waves. It will be (832)xx-xxxx for example. We have a landline at the business and 95% of our calls are spam.
Yes.
I remember years ago, meeting some Ayn Rand fans, and many of us who knew them considered them deluded and selfish. I remember the despair I felt when drump’s election proved that the deluded and selfish had increased and risen. And then the pandemic shone a spotlight on just how many had become proud of their delusion and selfishness. And yes, I sometimes get very depressed about this, but find ways to see the good and positive, and continue to hope.
I hope so, but I don’t care. The same with the bird site. I chose to delete my barely-used bird account when that idiot bought it, and to explore mastadon and lemmy when I could no longer use Apollo to view reddit. Two or 3 times I’ve popped over to reddit to see what’s going on, and check on any other subreddits that have moved to lemmy, and using the official reddit browser or app just reinforces why I left. It’s shit, and getting shittier.
Basically I like the mantra “not my circus, not my monkeys.”
Best ones I’ve heard of were 3 named: FBI Surveillance Van #1
FBI Surveillance Van #2
FBI Surveillance Van #4
That is awesome! Thanks!
Yelp not only “lets” businesses pay, they harass them until they pay, or switch the algorithm to show more negative reviews.
Re: Amazon, I always look at recent 1-star reviews to get the truth.
I also search online for reviews/ratings. Consumer Reports remains reputable and you can join and cancel month-to-month easily. I also understand Good Housekeeping only allows items to be marked by them for a year at a time, so they also seem to be reputable.
I just wish Amazon would also review search tags. It’s so frustrating to be looking for something and have the results full of unrelated products, duplicates, and other crap. I mean, if I’m looking for a replacement elongated toilet seat, don’t show me round ones, towel holders, and shower steamers!
That’s exactly what I was going to suggest.
I am on medium to follow one person, ecause I hate using the Reddit app, which is the other way to read them. I have tried reading other stories, but always hit a paywall. So I think it’s pointless, just my two bits.
