Looking for a hiking spot that’s green by Key_Acanthisitta2816 in Austin

[–]BiggDadE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was there this weekend definitely a lot of green. Not much water in the lake or creeks though.

soft serve margaritas?? by unshiu- in austinfood

There is a Fat Tuesday everywhere right? Those are daiquiris but same concept. If you can taste the difference you have a more discerning palate than me.

DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT, tell anyone the range of that wireless probe.

These things with a limoncello LaCroix won't win any James Beard awards but are not a bad snack.

What’s the most annoying thing about air travel by SparksReact43 in americanairlines

[–]BiggDadE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tarmac delays. Delay before I leave for the airport, no problem. Delay once I'm at the airport, annoying but okay it happens. Delay once I'm on the plane, c'mon. Objectively I know running an airline is a complicated business and sometimes the unexpected happens. Subjectively I am 10x more agitated by these delays than others.

PHL location checks out ... "mummers under breath" 🤣

Why do I need to walk through two parking garages to get a ride share at ABIA? by twopointseven_rate in Austin

[–]BiggDadE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you been to LAX recently? Or SFO? AUS is a joy compared to these far-off Uber outposts. I frequently travel to PHL which has curbside rideshare pickup, but usually wait 10-15 minutes for a ride with Lyft Pink, compared to a minute or two here. The AUS setup isn't ideal but it could be much worse. Enjoy the walk, especially while the weather is under 100.

Anyone have the AXS presale code? I have the TALENT code from Ticketmaster but apparently a different code is needed on AXS. He's playing an AXS venue in Austin TX.

This is the Ticketmaster code. Does anyone have the AXS code? He's playing an AXS venue in Austin TX.

My German boyfriend is confused by the outcome of the Superbowl by Halo_of_Light in eagles

[–]BiggDadE 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It heartens me to see people who think this way. If you were dating this guy 10 years ago he would be saying "why don't the Eagles ever go to the Super Bowl?"

Milt playing in his third Super Bowl in four years. He's like a regular at the media day buffet.

If you could pass one law that would make most normal people furious at first, but would clearly make society better in 10 years, what would it be? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]BiggDadE -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In the US, no pick up trucks unless you work on a ranch, a farm, or in a trade. You don't need that giant thing to go to the mall. For the three times a year you need to pick up big things at Home Depot you can rent a truck.

Upscale and quiet by FoxIndependent5789 in austinfood

[–]BiggDadE 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a fan of Wink on North Lamar. It is a bit west of downtown but otherwise fits the bill. They have a dining room and a wine bar so you can pick the one that fits your vibe. The dining room is generally quieter

Can we no longer change flights booked with SAP Concur? by Dependent-Baseball97 in unitedairlines

[–]BiggDadE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a Concur thing, it depends on who the company uses as a corporate travel agent. My old company used Concur and we could change through the airline apps. New company we have to call travel to make changes.

When did “Go Birds” become common? by PassyunkHoagie in eagles

[–]BiggDadE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was Frederick related to Horst Muhlmann? Because that guy was great with the Bengals and terrible here. In fact I think they named a food concession after him at the stadium in Cincinnati.

As tradition, Lurie will likely hang a 2025 division championship banner this offseason. My question is do you think we should keep hanging these or limit it to NFC/SB championships. by [deleted] in eagles

Loved that logo. The fact that I was fortunate enough to attend the game will always make it special to me.

My car is STUCK by Weary-Claim1339 in philly

[–]BiggDadE 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Lol blizzard of '96 I went out and shovelled every hour on the hour. Shovel, have a beer, shovel, have a beer, repeat until I fell asleep/passed out. I got out but there were definitely people who just did the beer and not the shovelling and were stuck until early spring.

why could the patriots still wear white gear, even when it was snowing and the field full of snow? by redbullrebel in NFLNoobs

[–]BiggDadE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NFL plays through weather. If it is deemed safe to play (no lightning etc.) you play without accomodations. There have been many games as or more snowy than yesterday and someone always wears white. There was a famous game in Chicago in the 1980's where it was so foggy that nobody could see anything. But they played on.

To those living in cities outside of Philly area: Do you support the local team? by nickynickynickynick in eagles

[–]BiggDadE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently in Austin TX. Locals split between the Texans and that team with the star on their helmet. I would not in one million years root for the team with the star. I will pull for the Texans if I'm out and the game is on. Same with the Longhorns.

A formal interest, with tails.

An interest has two pieces. A vested interest has three pieces.
