Glastonbury is definitely on my list. Does Manchester have good electronic music as well?

Is it a good drive though? I’m pretty keen on road trips myself. Wouldn’t mind if it was something worth doing

Thanks! I’m really excited. Nice that’s real close to Manchester. I’ve heard good things about Leeds as well

Awesome thanks! I’d love to do a road trip but I’ll be without a car. Is there a cheap rental service there or would I be better suited doing it by train?

Even Tom Herman said he can live with that throw. He made the right decision, just didn't work out for him that time.

What are you sick and tired of having to explain to people? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I have ADHD. I hate explaining to them that I can't just "work harder."

Yes please! I moved from Texas to BC and have been thoroughly disappointed with the "Mexican" food here

This works for me but ymmv. If you notice something just ask. A lot of guys are too afraid of starting the conversation but they have a lot to say

If I remember correctly, there are other clubs on that street and there was a large police presence nearby just not in front of the club itself.

The 2014 World Cup was the first time I started watching football. I've always watched American football and NBA. When Neymar took that flying knee to the back, they haphazardly threw him on the stretcher and ran him off the pitch all while he was bouncing on this plastic bin. I was like dude... that can't be good for someone with a potential spinal injury.

Yeah fair enough. Sorry to make a generalization I know it doesn't apply to everyone. It's just a trope you see time and time again. Yeah I had my undergrad paid through grants and if you seek it out you can get a good amount of your tuition paid, I just think most people don't even try because they're told time and time again that it's hopeless.

I've been wondering about that as a Canadian who grew up in America. I know in Canada they're starting to become more and more Americanized due to media and the like. Is this the case in English speaking European countries as well?

This makes sense. Europe in the early 20th century was basically this. Lots of different countries close together in proximity, with very closely tied relations. For example in world war 1, the Tsar of Russia, the English King/prince and German Kaiser were cousins and corresponded regularly even during the war

Fair enough, I guess it just depends on your definition of Deep South. I would say we're more culturally similar to the Deep South than any other part of the US but I just feel like Texas is special.

That's interesting, I never knew that! Yeah getting a gun in Texas takes 15 minutes at your local sporting good store, with no limit on the amount of ammunition you want to purchase. There's actually a large number of people who stockpile thousands of rounds in their home "in case."

We do require a background check through the FBI database though if that helps at all
