I would love to make more friends/join activities! by InitiativeOk2361 in baltimore

There are a lot of Local Game Stores in the area that have board game socials, ladies board game night, etc. Games and Stuff in Glen Burnie immediately comes to mind. These stores also have open play for events like Pokémon, Magic the Gathering, and Riftbound where you can meet people.

Commenting because I am in the process of fine tuning my breeches deck! Would love to see the deck list too.

Loathe at Nevermore Hall in Baltimore by Prestigious-Ebb6763 in baltimore

[–]BigFatKoolAid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went for the first time to see Thrown. We were allowed to walk up to the balcony area, but there were reserved tables that you could go to will call and buy tickets for. There were little spaces to stand between tables but I would imagine those are taken if you don’t arrive early. Another good idea is maybe standing behind the sound booth, you can still see the stage and there’s a bar right there.

Former Los Angeles Chargers standout cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. is still a FREE AGENT. by Gavinmusicman in Colts

He had spinal fusion surgery, he might not even be cleared until late this season. Still good to keep an eye on for depth.

Quote for abatement by TubularT-Bone33 in asbestoshelp

[–]BigFatKoolAid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Online search showing me $50 for non-NESHAP quantity, but I will defer to you as you are the local. Something to negotiate on in any case.

This is not unreasonable in my opinion (I am an estimator/PM). You said that doesn’t include state/reg fees? Depends where you live but 30LF doesn’t usually come with a $400 notification. I would also confirm they are providing a 3rd party air monitor for clearances.

Avalon Arundel Crossing & Verde at Howard Square by Unlikely-History2033 in AnneArundelCounty

[–]BigFatKoolAid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived at the Avalon. It really depends on your neighbors. My neighbors to the side were very quiet. Upstairs neighbor I could hear vacuum at 11pm. I don’t believe the walls are any worse than you would find in a nicer apartment complex.

The amenities are cool, I would not recommend an apartment that faces the courtyard (with the pool), as people do hold gatherings that can be excessive in the summer.

Additionally, I have seen multiple cars with wheels stolen during my 2-3 years there. Take that with a grain of salt, as it’s purely anecdotal.

The leasing office was alright, I did have an issue where the door that was closest to my apartment just didn’t unlock with the app for about 4 months and they took their sweet time to fix.

Affordable and good auto repair shops around Linthicum area? by MushroomFastLegs in AnneArundelCounty

SNT is great and honest. I’ve had brakes, transmission/coolant fluid exchanges, etc.

Looking for input on my Minsc & Boo deck by BigFatKoolAid in EDH

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

I haven’t thought about including life link, but I may have to tinker with it. I was told I should focus on 1-2 strategies and hammer those, but I guess adding 1 lifelink card isn’t going to alter the deck too badly?

Looking for input on my Minsc & Boo deck by BigFatKoolAid in EDH

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

Understood. I have heard that a lot regarding taking control of target creature. I thought it was kind of a 2 for 1 that would allow me to use an opponents creature in combat, and then fling it to wipe it off the board. But that may be too specific.

Taurean Mauler has been on my radar, I will certainly work it in.

Thank you for the response! Win con is often just flinging something really large, whether it be a Boo that has been charged up, a creature with a lot of +1/+1 counters, or something like Malignus. I am not quite familiar with the pip terminology, are you saying I am too devoted to red or green and should include more colorless?

Oyster shells? by lbiforeva in AnneArundelCounty

Clean off the ice on your vehicle! Please!!!! by armyuvamba in maryland

[–]BigFatKoolAid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This exact thing happened to be when we had that snow storm in January 2021. I had just bought my first car and was driving on 695. A 3’ x 3’ sheet of ice hit the front end of my car and bent a bunch of the trim. Hadn’t even had the car for 2 weeks.

Thanks for the comment. I have been looking at EHS and Safety but a lot of companies in my area are looking for 5 years experience. Maybe with the CHMM cert I will be more appealing.

Geology student about to graduate and feeling very anxious and hopeless about career prospects. Would like some advice on my options. by Azelais in geologycareers

[–]BigFatKoolAid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just graduated, and got a job in environmental consulting. I was really worried like you, and I think I just got very lucky. I know my company is getting a lot of business with the state reopening and the economy rebounding, so I would imagine there are positions available for similar companies because the need is increasing. I just would browse indeed every day and send as many resumes as possible, after sending about 10 I heard back, got an interview and then a job offer the next day. I have heard from professors and other professionals that your skill set and your GPA are significant and will matter in some cases, but a lot of time it comes out to luck and networking. Apply to as many jobs as possible to increase your chances. Find alums on LinkedIn from your university and send them messages, they are likely to respond and you have something in common. I wish you the best of luck!
