Why do we eat lettuce or spinach but we don't eat roses or orange tree leaves? by ilovequakerin askscience

[–]MaxK -1 points0 points ago

Don't know about roses, but orange tree leaves are very pulpy and bitter.

Banning plastic bags in our fair city by westwoodwonin LosAngeles

[–]MaxK -1 points0 points ago

I don't drive. It's impractical for me to carry paper bags all the way home due to the lack of handles, and I'm not about to carry cloth bags around with me everywhere I go on the off-chance that I decide I should pick up groceries on my way home from work. Plastic bags are convenient, inexpensive, and I exercise responsible recycling.

So yeah: If you don't like plastic bags, don't use 'em. When you give up driving for 30 years -- as I have -- you can chide me about destroying the planet all you want. In the mean time, kindly shut the fuck up and don't tell me what I can and can't do with my own life.

If you think plastic bags are bad for the environment then don't use them.

Facebook stock down by 10% in 15 minutes of trading - investors have lost 10 billion (on paper) by Hedegaardin news

[–]MaxK 0 points1 point ago

"IPO shares" refers to the shares offered to brokerages and influential private investors prior to the actual public trading of the stock. After the IPO drops -- what happened yesterday -- all's fair game.

What would you send in a care package to someone who misses L.A? by jamesey10in LosAngeles

[–]MaxK 1 point2 points ago

Print out a picture of your friend. Take the picture around to all their favorite spots and bring along some of their other LA friends. Take photos of you guys having a ball with your friend's photo at all their favorite places and treating them as if they're right there with you. It's cheap, fun, and more meaningful than a handful of sand.

Hello LA Reddit. Is living in your town all it really is shaped up to be? Is it really how TV portrays you as one of the most amazing to do things in life? Is TV lying to me? by fancyfoxfacein LosAngeles

[–]MaxK 0 points1 point ago

$60k per year is perfectly reasonable in Los Angeles for an administrative position with a few years experience and a good track record. Unfortunately, that market is saturated here and you'll find it nearly impossible to get a work visa in that arena unless you have particularly rare talents.

Where to raise a family? by aTROLLwithSWAGin LosAngeles

[–]MaxK 4 points5 points ago

For family-friendliness, LA is about on par with Las Vegas.

I think you're a piece of shit and if you said this to my face you'd be bleeding.

Could you do me a favor and not refer to women in general as "bitches", please? Thanks.

Not even a good hot dog.

Best Pastrami? by mthelin LosAngeles

[–]MaxK 2 points3 points ago

This should not be overlooked. It's not a traditional deli-style pastrami, but damn is it good!

Anyone notice this by evilchickenmanin ArcherFX

[–]MaxK 1 point2 points ago

Yes, and Ray wasn't really paralyzed. They can explain away anything if they like. Nobody ever said that was Mallory & Woodhouse' first meeting. Besides, the irony of him being shitty to his actual father all these years would be extra-delicious.

I'm hoping to god it's Woodhouse!

Do photons have kinetic energy? by endlegionin askscience

So that would make it kinetic energy.

First day of free milk for Turkish schools ends in disaster: Over 1000 children hospitalized by niceworktherein offbeat

[–]MaxK 1 point2 points ago

It's entirely possible the government's claims were true in this case: This is a tiny minority of kids who are not used to drinking milk and are lactose intolerant, allergic, or suffering from unrelated illnesses.

LA City workers came to fix bee problem in the sidewalk near my apartment. This was their solution. by poohcrackersin LosAngeles

[–]MaxK 0 points1 point ago

It's what the exterminator told my roommate when we had a bee infestation some years back, but it's entirely possible we were misinformed.

This is illegal. They are required by law to relocate the bees.
