I threatened to call the cops on a parking lot attendant at the Pentagon City Costco. It was admittedly not my finest hour, but the guy was threatening to make us pay the $20 lost ticket fee when the machine never gave us a ticket. OMG, I need to go breathe deeply now. Just thinking about it makes me rage.

hold on, you have to get tickets?  for what?

It's a pay parking lot, but Costco validates your ticket for 2 hours. The shopping center is next to a mall that also charges for parking. There are tons of other shops around. Street parking is metered and hard to come by. It's Metro accessible. Pentagon City is just a crazy area.

Okay but seriously, what Costco is this that does samples on Sundays? It's Saturday morning at ours, eat or be eaten. YOU KNOW THE RULES.

The DC Costco.

Sunday around noon/1pm-ish is HELL ON EARTH. Church lets out, massive families swarm the Costco, and every person has to sample every last thing. It's COMPLETE MADNESS. And the parking lot? Sweet Jesus the parking lot. I have never seen anything like it.

Have I ever shared my H's experience going there to have a Herman Cain book signed (for someone else)? You can probably imagine how it went.

This is an example of the articles about excessive bail. $50,000 for a single punch that gives someone cut above the eye? really? is this guy a flight risk? is there good reason to think he won't show for his date, does he really has to be held until trial?

my xh's bail was set at 155k for violating a RO

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who was confused by that comment.

Our Costcos do samples everyday, with the best ones being given out between 2 and 4:30, so as to avoid encroaching on the lunch and dinner rush at the food court.

And Costco at around 2pm is seemingly when all the oldz are out en masse, clogging the aisles with general slowness and unattended carts.

I know way too much about this!

I thought I invented nutella waffles. I toast the waffles and instead of syrup I spread them with nutella. It gets all melty and stick to the roof of your mouthy. Um

[lyssbobiss, Command, B613]

Well now I think the most egregious part of this story is that Costco probably won't be handing out Nutella waffle samples again anytime soon.
