@aaronpk that sounds miserable!!! I hope you are ok
@aaronpk That building reminds me of one I used to work in, in Bellevue, Washington in 1995.
@aaronpk
I might not know about nuances in the English language, but "ganz klein" means "very little". "Quite small" could also work.
"Completely small" would be "total klein" or "vรถllig klein".
@aaronpk I find the same result by making a batch of stew or chili, which I am apparently unable to do at reasonably small scale. I suppose I should buy a small pressure cooker, but it feels like the same effort to make a vat's worth at a time.
@aaronpk oh goodness. I stayed at one of those in Redwood City. I heard rats in the walls, and someone tried to break into my laptop when I wasn't there (the hotel claimed the cleaning lady thought someone had left something in the room so went through my stuff - according to the police report)
@aaronpk Ugh!
I used to have to hassle the corporate travel system, to get them to allow me to stay in a cute chalet-style Inn in Switzerland that was a quarter of the price of the shitty business hotel that they wanted to put me in in Geneva for the whole weekend.
@aaronpk next time, check out the coastside. Pacifica to Half Moon Bay. Hotels are a little cheaper, and thereโre some good Airbnb. :-)
@aaronpk you make it sound like filling your kitchen with capsaicin isn't a desirable outcome
Easy! Just throw a couple of pounds of cooked beef in a blender and stir it on in!
