@72 I don't think it's fair to make unions and immigrant groups responsible for what a bunch of sullied children decide to do later in the day.

Aaron commented on KeyArena's Days Are Numbered, Whether or Not We Get a Sodo Arena.

It wasn't a "catastrophic roof collapse", it was a bunch of shitty acoustic ceiling tiles that weren't glued in properly combined with average leaks. The building didn't last because is was poorly architected, not because it was falling down. Tastes change indeed.

I hope you have brakes on those fixies because a bicycle without brakes is just fucking stupid. And don't give me that shit about how your legs are your brakes, stopping the rear wheel only (as long as the chain stays put). Keep track bikes on the track. Fucking mooks.

Aaron commented on Have You Seen the New Mountain Dew Commercial, Featuring Odd Future?.

Well that didn't last long. Video removed by user. Since nothing ever dies on the interwebs, where now for my amusement in watching Mountain Dew spew?

One Reel is out? They are still announcing via their web page that the show is cancelled.

Aaron commented on Do You Want Me to Have Healthcare With That? Why Raising Restaurant Prices in Seattle Will Not End Society as We Know It.

Not many of us have 100% employer paid health insurance anymore. Subsidized yes, but 100%? Going, going...

Is "free Christmas tree" included in the legend?

@10 is right, when it comes to RSS you're fucking stupid. I was glad I wasn't at work either.

Aaron commented on Big Soda Strikes Again.

$15 for a tiny bottle of CO2 vs. the tanks you can get at a gas (welding beverage whatever) supply is why I rejected the Soda Stream. That plus I already had most of the set up for my "kegerator" (jockey box in a fridge really).

The key component is a "carbonator cap" and the associated ball cock valve. Beyond that you need a tank of gas, a common regulator, and a tiny amount of tubing with clamps. Simple. Search "carbonator cap" and you can find all you need many places (e.g. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1…)
