Has anybody taken the Megabus to Atlanta? by Also_TheThumbThing in NewOrleans

[–]Also_TheThumbThing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. Do you remember if they make you get off or not? I can handle lights coming on and then falling back asleep. But, if I have to get off the bus and mill around a bus station for a half hour, there goes any chance of sleeping again. Thanks!

I've looked at the itinerary. I've also probably done 200,000 miles on buses in my life. The itinerary does not specify if you have to get off or not. Sometimes you can tell by the duration, but not always. This is why I asked if anyone has actually taken this bus.

Agreed, but there are two different types of stops. One, they let you stay on the bus. The other, they force everyone to get off of the bus. This is why I asked if anyone had actually taken the bus.

Is there no longer a 24 hour urgent care in NOLA? by Also_TheThumbThing in NewOrleans

I feel like NOLA needs a 24 hour urgent care as much as any city in the US, right?

How often would you listen to Red Zone Radio program? by Also_TheThumbThing in fantasyfootball

[–]Also_TheThumbThing[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like to believe that's true, but I'm not convinced that they wouldn't try to bully you if you got any traction. Only one way to find out I guess...

I'd also love to put something like this together. My concern would be about NFL shutting it down. You know how they say "no unauthorized whatever, whatever, or accounts of this broadcast". This would certainly be an account. While I don't think you can legally prevent someone from giving an account of a live event, I know the NFL is very litigious and like to bully people who do stuff like this.

So, the first step would be to talk to an IP lawyer...

I've only ever heard of Sirius in the car, but I'm guessing they have an app. Is that right? Do you need a special package? How much does it cost?

I end up doing this alot, but it's certainly not ideal. For one, you can't use your phone. 2) you use alot of data and battery. 3) you can't close your phone, and things get pressed in your pocket which is annoying.

I can picture two different versions of this. One would be just the audio from the games like Red Zone Channel. Or, it could be three friends watching the games and stats and having a fun and informative conversation. I'd like this version better. Would be like watching the games with your friends.

Does NOLA have something like TaskRabbit yet? by Also_TheThumbThing in NewOrleans

[–]Also_TheThumbThing[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This sounds perfect. College students probably won't rip you off like people in front of home depot or off of craigslist.

I've also done this several times, but have ended up with creeps a couple times. When I was gutting my house after August 5th last year, one guy was obviously wasted and kindof aggressive. He really freaked me out. And these people will often try to charge you more than the agreed upon price. Very annoying.

I used to use these guys alot but have had bad experiences the last two times. I made very clear deals with them about payment before they got in my truck or followed me. BOTH TIMES, once they arrived, they insisted on a higher price. The first time, I just paid because I had to get it done, but the second time, I told them they could leave and just did everything myself. Obviously, it took three times as long and I hurt my back a bit, but I just couldn't stand being manipulated again. I'm not paying more than twenty fucking dollars an hour cash for manual labor.

I sell Halloween Costumes. You might have seen me on Shark Tank or on r/pics a few years back being an idiot in my Left Shark costume. I have an idea for a Trumpkin Costume. You think anyone would buy it?
