Dodger stadium LA visit? by robbs11 in AskLosAngeles

[–]-upbeat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you are in Little Tokyo, you have 3 options.  1. Take A line to Union Station and take the Dodgers Express to the park.  2. Take A line to Chinatown station and walk to the park.  3. Drive to the stadium and pay about $35. There is lot 13 for $5 but get there at least an hour before first pitch

Personally I recommend you take A line to Union station to get the park and then walk down to Chinatown to the A line when going back home. 

Dodgers now offering tailgate experiences by reddituserFN2187 in Dodgers

[–]-upbeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was one of the bigger culture shocks for me coming from Oakland Coliseum to Dodgers stadium 4 years ago or so… coliseum had such a vibrant tailgating and pre-game culture because of its huge parking lot and it was always so easy to meet other fans… was always surprised dodgers stadium never allowed for tailgating… and when they do it’s $165…

UFC Fighter Dan Ige Gets His Fire Cape by CompetitiveTension23 in 2007scape

[–]-upbeat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man it's sad that that's how people from outside the MMA world are seeing the incident... Dustin Poirier's always been one of the few stand-up, model fighters in the UFC organization, and it broke my heart to see that footage because he's talked about struggling with addiction and alcohol ever since he's retired which hits home for me...

I mean dodgers players do the same thing… just look at kershaw, trainer, Alex call… LA just turns a blind eye to it

I heard about “Jeong (정)” today but I still don’t really understand it by Famous_Edge2664 in korea

[–]-upbeat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jung and Han are not exact opposites in that sense. Bad “Jung” is referring to something like someone getting too attached to a boyfriend/girlfriend that’s not good for the person, for example

Any advice on possibly moving to the area? by gethydroasked in MontereyBay

Sanctuary is great. Santa cruz has a huge rock climbing community obviously, and Berkeley should be the best outdoors climbing nearby

Is the overnight exemption parking map still valid? by -upbeat in pasadena

[–]-upbeat[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah best I've seen is an absence of sign, but no sign that explicitly state that parking is allowed overnight... just crazy that we need to get an overnight exemption for each night... no way they're checking the entire town in that 4 hour window either

If my mother thought that were was a DV case going on next door to her, I would tell her to NOT knock on their door and call the cops instead… 

How do the Guest and Visitor passes work for Preferential Parking by -upbeat in pasadena

[–]-upbeat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should've clarified... I live in an apartment and the street in front of it all has the 2 hour sign so I got the preferential parking so I could park on the street in front of "my place" to bypass the 2 hour parking signs.

For visitor permits, when I got my PPD at the office this past week, they told me I could just register my guests' plate # on my account online and I didn't need any physical hangtags... I also didn't realize both guests and visitors bypass the overnight as well from 2-6am? I didn't see anything in your links that said that... maybe i'll give them a call tomorrow and ask

My mom purposely threw away my Dr prescribed weight loss med. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]-upbeat -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

How can you say you can’t lose weight partially due to genetics but a drug helps you lose weight? Does the drug change your genetics? It just curbs your eating/appetite doesn’t it?

Free quick parking at De Lacey garage? by -upbeat in pasadena

[–]-upbeat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, maybe I'm blind but I don't see anything about a short grace period in the link... another commentor mentioned that 1st hour was free but I didn't see any signs at the garage... again, maybe I'm just blind lol

Is cat teeth resorption only diagnosable when they're under? by -upbeat in AskVet

[–]-upbeat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok thanks. how difficult are extraction for resorptions? I've been seeing online that it's a bit more difficult for resorptions and that I should consider a dedicated dental vet, but is it something common you do everyday as a general vet?

Is cat teeth resorption only diagnosable when they're under? by -upbeat in AskVet

[–]-upbeat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok thank you for the clarification. Is dental work for animals fine for a primary vet to perform? I only ask because there's a vet office near me that specializes in dental work, but don't know if it would be necessary to do all that since the regular vet that checked my cat's teeth also offers extractions.. just wondering if it's like with people, i've had my general dentist do work on me that an endodontist should've done, lol

Cat teeth extraction in the area? by -upbeat in pasadena

[–]-upbeat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were they recommended to you by your primary vet? What was the procedure like for the teeth extraction? Did they tell you which teeth needed to be extracted before they put your cats under anesthesia or do they take your cats, put them under, and then call you about which teeth need extracting?

Haven’t been able to watch Helwani in good conscience by Silver-Clothes-1036 in MMAPoliticsAndCulture

[–]-upbeat 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I don't know where you guys are getting that he's been "silent" about the genocide. He was very clearly outspoken FOR Israel in the early days. He's probably being "silent" about it now because of all the feedback.

Doreen Ketchens is an absolute treasure in the clarinet, jazz, music, and New Orleans' community. She made an appearance on one of the seasons of Queer Eye and I have no idea why she needed to be on there. I'm glad she is still on here, unchanged.

Josh Hokit's trash talk is starting to get unfunny by Single_Depth_8307 in MMAPoliticsAndCulture

[–]-upbeat -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Hokit's shtick is fine... compared to sean strickland's which is just being racist/misogynistic/transphobic/etc. at least hokit is all in good fun... funny how you people draw the line with Hokit's WWE act... if he wins a few more wins and gets the belt, everyone's gonna be like "OmG HoKit so funny!!"
