~~~SANDBOX 77~~~

Piggly Wiggly is also found in the Midwest (and used to be in the West as well before they sold off some stores). Harris Teeter is in the mid-Atlantic.

Also the southeast.

What is the naughty name for Harris Teeter that comes to your mind? My people always called it "Harry Peter," but I just realized it also sounds lie "teat."

Piggly Wiggly was founded on September 6, 1916 at 79 Jefferson Street in Memphis, Tennessee, by the American entrepreneur Clarence Saunders. It was the first true self-service grocery store, a concept patented[3] by Saunders in 1917. Because customers could choose their products directly, packaging and brand recognition became very important.

There's a replica of the first Pig at the Pink Palace Museum in Memphis. When I worked for a grocery wholesaler in the 80s, one nickname was Hoggly Woggly. #uselesstrivia

i have several honeymoon photos in the parking lot of a piggly wiggly in wisconsin because we forgot to pack toothbrushes and toothpaste.

after the relative horror of food lion (sorry jesse) and other nc stores, my friends refer to h-t as taj ma teeter

In Greensboro, NC there was one VERY LARGE Harris Teeter* (at Friendly Center, on Friendly Ave.), which some friends called Taj Ma Teeter.

Food Lion wasn't bad, IMO. Some were, some weren't. There was a super shitful Harris Teeter in Greensboro (on Summit Ave.) that made Food Lion look opulent by comparison. It later became a Sav Yr Monee or something like that.

*When I moved to Chicago, I really missed the palatial, abundant Southern supermarkets. They're catching up in some parts of town, but it took some time before the feeling of austerity subsided. I don't now if Jenny (or Jeff) would agree, but I know a couple other NC transplants who did.

You know the Southern grocery store name I really love? Winn-Dixie.

Walmart is putting the hurt on so many of these southern chains. There's one Winn-Dixie near here, over in Alabama...couple of Pigs, one Big Star.

nbd just poppin off tomorrow for a few days to spend new year's here:

I want to go to there

The weather will not be as good as in the posted photo.

I don't know what happened, I got in a cab intending only to bypass a slow train, and found myself giving my home address. Door to door service, baby.

live has bowled me a few googlies this week. where is the girl advice/tmi thread please?

The Jewel on Ashland/north of Diversey is comparable. Not as big as the super mega super megamarkets, but almost there. Too bad we always use peapod now anyway.

I don't prefer HTML, it prefers me.

just use brackets instead of carrots, it would have worked.

No shit!

Piggly and Wiggly were the name of the founders.

i'm just saying, never give up, follow your dreams

Bartles and Jaymes were the figments of founders.

my flight confirmation code is GEOTSE

which is close enough for lols in my book

went on a rad first date last night

drank wine, during which I confessed my strange fascination with glory holes

he suggested we go try and find one

we DID

IT WAS AWESOME

no, nobody gave or received a beej.

Then we went to a soul DJ night my friend was throwing, danced a bit, then made out a bunch!!

A++++!!

sorry but how do you try a glory hole without doing a beej?

sounds awesome by the way

oh nm! i misread "go try and find one" as "go try one" lol

This should be the standard by which all awesome first dates are now judged. WTG HS!!!!

i would enjoy finding a glory hole and taking pictures of quotidian objects stuck through it: a piece of paper, an empty bottle, etc.

PYRAMUS: Oh kiss me through the hole of this vile wall!
THISBE: I kiss the wall's hole, not your lips at all.

-dad bought a new wastebasket with an automatic lid
-the new wastebasket is too big and our shoprite plastic bags won't fit
-dad now thinking of going to the dollar store, buying a smaller wastebasket and putting it inside the larger one so we can continue to use shoprite plastic bags

btw someone on the other side stuck their dick through the wall

Was this a glory hole in a designated glory hole area or like in a public bathroom?

Also, I recall you being a woman, is that correct?

uh yes I am

can't women be fascinated with glory holes?

this was in an "adult arcade"

Oh absolutely! I was asking 1. Bc of your screen name and 2. bc I wondered if maybe you snuck into a men's bathroom.

And interest in glory holes among male Homosexuals is far less remarkable.

major irl lols

Homosexual II, what was you and your date's general response to the dick appearing?

Whack-a-mole

hahaha

In a dirty bar there was a dirty man who gave me his dirty card that showed his home address. There, he said, the door was always unlocked, allowing access to his glory hole. I've seen this kind of thing on Manhunt. It seems next-level depraved and creepy. And pretty fascinating, tbh.

the dirty bar was Clark's on Clark, which a few of you will remember

nuhnuhnuh, I tried to post this earlier, but it failed - are you elmo a?

I remember nothing.

I remember that Jenny was pissed that you gave out your address so freely.
