Did the good restaurants stay open 24/7 before?

Conversely, what is the need for everything to be open in the middle of the night? The person is stating nothing is open 24/7 any more.

it's a bit more complicated an answer than 'I need treats at three am and there's no treats to be had'.

It costs actual money to be open. Lot of places require extended hours permits to stay open past 11pm-midnite. The returns on staying open 24/7 May not justify staying open all nite. Also, I like to sleep.

I understand there are third shifters , I get that folks have insomnia. But the examples used haven't really changed. Wendy's is still 'open late'. Open late doesn't mean 24/7. Whataburger are still 24/7. Taco Bell's are mostly independently owned and have always set their own hours, more or less. The mom n pop gas stations have always closed around around 11,12. The big ones are still open 24/7. She uses Irving Pizza as an example, then complains that the place that took the space when Irving Pizza closes doesn't have the same business hours ?

This kinda comes across as complaining for treats IMO.

You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly - Loretta & Conway (youtu.be)
 

You're the reason our kids are ugly,
Little darlin.
Ah, but looks ain't everything,
And money ain't everything,
But I love you just the same.

a honkey tonk love song by two country legends. The song is a little unconventional but it's still a love song.

Hummer - Smashing Pumpkins (youtu.be)
 

I've always been a music kind of guy. I developed a joy for song early in my life. I'd like to say my music tastes are pretty varied, although I do have a couple preferred lanes I like to drive in.

This is a song of personal significance. It reminds me of a place in time, and a place geographically. It reminds me of someone, and a bond we shared.

It's interesting, the older I get, the more significance music has to me. Is it wistfulness? Is it just the fact that music soothes the savage beast, and I am unrested? I dunno.

Never been a Hall and Oates fan. I mean I know who they are, just because people of a certain age just kinda know who they are. My old man is a Hall and Oates fan from way back. He has a couple of their early releases on LP. Back when they were decidedly more melodic, easy listening. Yacht Rock.

Recently some PhilCollins posting I did made me have a fleeting moment of introspection and I began to realize how much I am my father's son. I keep finding myself listening to more and more of the shit he listened to. I heard this song earlier and turned it up.

I am embracing yacht rock and I like it. I am become my father. Lord help us all. Thanks for coming to psychology talk.

I think these guys were not well known outside of Austin Tx really. Went to Austin with my little sister a bunch in the nineties to see these guys. Good band, great energy. Lot of fkn fun. Lead singer, Lance 'fever' Myers was involved with Space Jam, A Scanner Darkly, and other projects. Hes a well known animator in/around Austin Tx.

Move with me Magdalene
I'm tired of the same old scene
There's a greyhound leaving at midnight
If you came with me it'd be like a dream

A Guy Clark tune. He ranks amongst my favorite singer songwriters, a person-and-a-guitar sorta thing. He was a great luthier too, he made all the guitars he played with his own hands, and thats pretty fkn cool if you ask me.

The ultimate landlord special: leaving a massive wardrobe in the master bedroom to avoid painting some wallpaper. in c/[email protected]

Yeah but these arent broken, just stuck. At least not judging by included photo they arent.

Extractors have a time and place but theyre more of a last resort than a first line IMO. These screws just appear to be in wood so OP just needs more leverage frankly, hence the suggestion of a larger slot which will allow a no 3 philips or a 5/16 or 3/8 flathead to get more bite.

Drill screw heads out. Remove tracks. Use vice grips or similar locking pliers to bite down on threaded shafts and spin em out. Or use a grinder to cut a larger groove into the screw head and use a big flathead or cut a large cross into the top and use and no 3 philips screwdriver to remove them.

If the screws are pan heads you might be able tilo bite onto the lip with a pair of locking pliers and forgo tge grinding/drilling/etc.

What the fuck is a plugger? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago

pluggers are the same guys who drive dodge rams on 34" swampers and those adjustable aluminum receiver hitches to fetch their groceries.

pluggers are the guys who wear pressed khakhis, PFG shirts and Costa sunglasses.

republicans mostly, i guess.
