I used mine 3 days ago. Admittedly, it had probably been a few years since the last time that tray opened, but all was good!

Unrelated, but you have any rabbits I could pet?

In the US, $ comes before a number, and ¢ comes after. It helps differentiate them at a glance. $1.50 or 75¢ You only use one symbol at a time.

Not all that many uses for the ¢ left these days, I suppose.

Certain ants are pretty distinct. Thatch ants spray formic acid as a defense, and will have a sour smell (and taste, or so I've been told). Odoriferous house ants are named so for obvious reason, and smell (to me) like pen ink. Assuming they taste terrible, but I dunno anyone who's tasted one.

Also, for what it's worth, my entomologist father refers to the thread's subject as "sow bugs", so that's how I know them, but pill bugs and rolly polly are common here.

In the winter, they are. English cukes you might find hothouse.

I was gonna say I think I liked reddit more before the digg folks came. Maybe Lemmy is right where it should be.

Places I worked when I was younger, it was just one of the jobs of the courtesy clerks, along with bagging and filling some things to the shelf. Even in a really busy store, I think there'd be a ton of wasted time if someone was doing only carts.

I like the idea that there's some shift that's just getting carts all day.

"Sorry, Johnson, people haven't left enough carts out lately. We're letting you go."

Using "bis" for toilets is funny, like you're grinding a raid at the hardware store hoping for an epic toilet drop.
