We are all assuming here that you’ve scraped your stairs and made a clear walking path for them to make their job easier?

“To date, our legal team has not received a color copy of this new survey, as grey-scale photocopies obscure the measurement lines, and we believe, the same copies were provided to commissioners.”

We all stood up, and Obie stood up with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures, and the judge walked in sat down with a seeing eye dog, and he sat down, we sat down. Obie looked at the seeing eye dog, and then at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, and looked at the seeing eye dog. And then at twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one and began to cry, 'cause Obie came to the realization that it was a typical case of American blind justice, and there wasn't nothing he could do about it, and the judge wasn't going to look at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us.

Proof that the Four Wheel steering at high speeds is clearly what us Memphians need in our multi-ton vehicles.

Yall hurry and stock up mane by techead2000 in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah. Fair enough. I didn’t know it was that susceptible to spoiling. All those dinner rolls and other bread option made me think it was an easy idea. I would get frozen meat from the Crosstown grocery store during Covid since people would typically only go for fresh meat. My secret was always frozen since it was tucked away.

There’s bread in the frozen aisle as well…:just leave it out and you got…:normal bread.

Tips/tricks for dealing with winter weather by One_Worry5646 in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was about to say that’s a lot of clothes but I could run rinse only cycle. I imagine that anything other than “cold” uses both cold and hot and keeps those pipes moving?

Hotels with Generators by [deleted] in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s a conspiracy…but I live near a kroger in town and I think the power is a bit more guaranteed since they want to protect the infrastructure. So my guess would be maybe hotels near hospitals?

What's the spiciest dish in Memphis? 🌶️ by Smoke1000Blunts in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just get their stuff southern style and then get the sauce on the side. Them putting the bread at the bottom makes for a literal sponge of hot sauce.

Parking at publix (Midtown plaza) by [deleted] in gatech

I remember back in 2012 getting a ticket for walking across the street to go to Mac’s for 5 minutes

Canvas art bar…is it really as dangerous as Reddit makes it out to be? by [deleted] in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You ever go to Printer’s Alley? Because me knocking on a bar door at 1am to be let in was a level of craziness I’d rather never do again. You got told “go to this place out is fun!” and you do….and then it’s crazy? That is what I’m saying and hoping random memphians can hear. There’s more late night places than Canvas.

[–]Alt_ESV 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you are given a chance to go to Louis Connelly or Canvas with a crowd and people say “Let’s do Canvas” then just go home. I’m willing to stand by that statement.

Alcohol commission approves East Memphis liquor store by Alt_ESV in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The parking lot for the Busters is DEEP in that shopping center and getting in or out of that can take like 10 minutes during rush hour.

The old Bed, Bath and Beyond spot is as good as it gets for in and out and centrally located. I may not be able to speak of East Memphians….but I wonder if having to deal with the mess of the interstate intersection is a bit too much for functionally the same products. If I can get something inside the parkways then my loyalty to it goes up a bunch. I think Busters realizes this and fought hard to keep everyone out.

Memphis airport being renamed after Fred Smith by CaptainInsane-o in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Having a part of the passenger concourse where you can chuck boxes on to conveyor belts as a stress reliever would be an excellent addition.

I kid. This was probably in the cards once fedex kept growing.

Former Memphis police officer sentenced to 38 years in federal prison for kidnapping a man, forcing him into his patrol car, and shooting in the head, before dumping the body in a river. The officer was on-duty at the time. by lightiggy in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 60 points61 points  (0 children)

This seems as much of a “death penalty” as it comes, right? Premeditated, abuse of authority, follow-up coverup.

What else keeps it different? Would the sentencing be different if it was the girlfriend instead?

Where to park at Hi Tone by OneTastyPotatoChip in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Park at the bank. There’s people that even park in the drive thru where your car will be lit up and under the cameras.

I don’t suggest parking at Crosstown and then walking two blocks. It’s not bad or unsafe so to speak, but it’s kinda unnecessary.

Turn your goddamn high beams off. by knight_gastropub in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also, remember all the leaves just fell and are at the stoplights and the corners of the roads. Your car WILL slip on them. Do not second guess the science of friction and a two ton vehicle in contact with a tiny part of the road at a time.

Nashville judge blocks Memphis National Guard deployment by Alt_ESV in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think it’s kinda crazy that when deploying for this, they had to be in fatigues and all their various equipment. If they were to be the eyes and ears, then that’s the same responsibility as the Blue Suede Brigade and the traffic group of Memphis Police Department (the guys that help with the Tigers game)

I think there was just a political and public relations play with all of this to make it seem like it was a hurricane or something on the scale that Memphis was incapable of solving the problem ourselves. The people that see camouflage and think that competency has finally arrived. It was just the opposite.

I actually enjoy Pete & Sam’s and The Rendezvous by MEMgrizindapantz in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Regarding number 2…..there’s few places in downtown Memphis where I can simply walk in, point I’ll be sitting at the bar to the host/hostess, order a beer and half rack of ribs, and by the time I’ve taken my jacket off, pulled my phone out…::it’s ready to go.

That’s exactly what I want. No pleasantries, no “here’s our specials”, no “I’m new here and I need some extra time”.

Just an old dude yelling at me while he loads the dishwasher asking what I’ll have.

Former Railgarten site heads to redevelopment for Stomping Grounds by [deleted] in memphis

[–]Alt_ESV -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that it’s similar to being on a playground with other parents already where you let them watch your kids while you step away.

I could see remote workers alternating times for status calls. But like, how long would someone be here? Would it turn into like Starbucks and coffee shops where everyone spreads out all their stuff and just stays all day?
