Not fear mongering lmao, I selected that one block of text because it explained why/how this could potentially reach us and that the event is actually relevant to us.

Because my initial thought when reading about this event over a week ago was "luckily that can't reach us it's so far away" (and I bet a lot of people had that same thought).

But looks like I was wrong and it is definitely possible to reach us and that block explains how it can reach us.

Reply to Dogs in grocery stores. by Norgyort

Hate people like you, not everyone has a visible disability. Some old lady tried to tell me off for having my dog in the store and I just got what I wanted and left. Most people are expecting all service dogs to have a cringey vest and be complete robots, which just isn’t true in most cases.

Reply to comment by Literallydead_1 in Who has the best French fries in the greater Portland area? by to_thecore_

I'm not sure about the hype. I've watched people on tv shows all rave about it, and there were huge lines last summer when we first attempted to go. I got the classic poutine. the gravy was just out o' the can brown liquid, the cheese curds weren't even "squeaky". The fries were the most underwhelming part!

We did got to "the little tap house" nearby. Great poutine, and my son claims "the worlds best grilled cheese"! Had a sweet drink selection also. Real close to the portland by the bay hotel.

Make your own fries man. Not hard and very tasty. Cut your potatoes and soak them in water for a while. Drain and rinse. Pat dry woth paper towels. Fry at 350 until soft and starting to brown a bit. Put them on a sheet pan. Freeze them. Once frozen remove and fry at 375 until golden brown. You won't regret this.

Well he told me to come down off my high horse without asking what I meant. Thats pretty condescending in my opinion.

Something I said has convinced you that you need to tell me that my opinion isn't fact. As if I don't understand that. Which is also rude.

So maybe you two can get together about assuming other people's thoughts and completely disregard asking questions to clarify.

Jumping the gun and accusing Walker of being condescending on the sole basis that you two aren't talking in-person.

For someone who doesn't want to talk about this and wants to talk about what the post is actually about...you seem to be exercising the opposite of that pretty damn hard.

I was actually planning to respond with my own opinion before I read the entire conversation and decided to respond to the further stupidity presented instead.

Just because I respond to someone's comment calling out their stupidity doesn't mean I need to state my opinion on the issue the post is talking about. It's possible and it's allowed to do both.
