UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

This whole State liquor store thing is so fucking stupid...........

Sorry, I couldn't help it.

 

I've had the best luck with the Sandy one

 

I dont disagree after living in WA and CA, but re: hard liquor, its basically the same as how it is in VA where I grew up so I don't mind it too bad.

The whole highpoint beer thing gets me though.

 

Well, I'm from Texas and we had drive thru Margarita barns....so, yeah. Lucky for me, I'm a beer drinker so it's not all that bad.

 

So changing the topic, I saw not one but TWO new Landy Defenders yesterday on my 12 minute drive home. They look HORRIBLE. Sure they are capable as demonstrated by several 4x4 offroad youtube channels, but they killed the essence of the Defender. And there's no way the third world roamers are going to embrace them like the defenders of old either. The old ones that explored Africa for decades were leaky, maintenance whores, but at least they could be fixed with a bit of baling wire and a rock long enough to get you to civilization.



vs the classic:

 

I went to Draper at the beginning of the pandemic (calm down @Gunshot-6A I was just getting some rum to make my homemade vanilla extract) and I swear the line outside stretched to the DMV.
Sandy was definitely better. Plus there's that Asian market next door where you can get your bag of frozen squid.

 

Hey man, I ain't no snitch. Your secret's safe from the bishop The draper line early on def did stretch that far too!

IDK though, the phrase "OceanMart" just sketches me out a little. Plus Club 90 on the other side is a bust. The 90 refers to the average age of its customers based on the one time I set foot in there.

 

no WAY that's the first I've seen of them. Looks like a mix between that boxy Scion and a Honda Passport or something. Wow.

 

One was on the freeway by 90th and I thought it was the new lesser Bronco at first, then I saw what it was and I felt ill. It was the white and pale blue combo and was icky.

The second was by Scheels on 114th and had the full broverlander kit, snorkel and all. It was all covered in mud spray though, so it looks like he at least gave it a proper landy thrashing.

 

I saw one yesterday too, it was black though. Fugly.

 

My neighbor bought a red one. That goofy square on the side looks ridiculous in red. It looks like an ambulance...

Interior is pretty nice though.

 

I was emboldened and just went to the liquor store in Sandy. I was literally the only person in there

 

I wish every store was as neatly organized and clearly laid out as that place.

 

Facts.

Conversely, as someone who routinely deals with process flow and mass manufacturing strategies, Zupas is an aneurysm-inducing nightmare.

 

"home made vanilla extract"...oh sure....

 

I approve.

 

Anyone have experience with big mountain barbell? Looking for a gym that has specialty bars, combo racks, and (hopefully) calibrated kilo plates for powerlifting. Not sure if anyone else in here dabbles in that, but figured I’d ask. Lol

 

Ha! You know what, it's probably the same ingredients just different quantities
I bet that wouldn't taste as good in cookie dough though. Mmm.

 

only one way to find out. i'll take any extras int he bottle you don't use. lol
