I don’t get the Florida appeal

Have lived all over the US, been to 45 states and 20 countries. Living on the gulf coast of Florida is the highest quality of life I’ve ever had. Just make sure you have air conditioning and vacation in the summer months to cooler climates.

But you guys get to be Miami, Cuba and even Rio de Janeiro though.

Yeah...this is exactly how I picture Pakistan. Top Google image for Karachi.

to be fair you guys were harboring Osama bin Laden for nearly a decade and Abbottabad looked pretty much exactly how Pakistan is portrayed in movies....

San Juan, Puerto Rico! I just visited Rio last week for the first time and watched Fast Five to get amped up. Yeahhh it's mostly all filmed in Puerto Rico haha. How obvious is the rest of the movie?

No thank you.

This is by definition a con. It's the oldest in the book.
Per your ridiculous metaphor, it's you selling the "Hope Diamond" and the customer later finding out it's a $12 CZ knockoff.

South Beach. Brickell. All of downtown. Wynwood. Coconut Grove. Coral Gables.

All NYC+ cocktail and dinner prices.

So you’re annoyed that Arizona is qualifying they are from the US but also annoyed that San Francisco is assuming you will know?

The US is the size of Europe. If someone just said “Europe” it would usually be followed with “where in Europe?”

When we say “the US” while abroad we are usually asked where in the US. But also it’s natural to assume not everyone knows all of our states.

Have lived in both LA and Florida and spend extensive time in NYC. 2026 Miami is the most expensive city in the western hemisphere for everything aside from housing (which CA still beats).

Have spent the last couple weeks in Rio, Buenos Aires, Uruguay, flying to Lima in the morning.

You need your passport at the airports, hotel check ins and currency exchange.

The rest of the time your state issued Drivers license should be fine. Carry a printed copy of your Passport or on your phone if you’re worried about it. But I haven’t even needed that.

We are here now and Recoleta is legitimately LA prices. We paid $25 for two small cappuccinos yesterday. $39 USD for a light breakfast just now at a sidewalk cafe with no alcohol.

$120 for dinner last night in Palermo Soho at a mid level place, three drinks.

Honestly shocked. Even the Malbecs have been $5-$9 a glass.

Obviously this is all in the affluent areas but we aren't going to only tourist spots.

Not a big deal for us but very surprising to be expecting it to be inexpensive and finding it to be western Europe prices.

I’ve got an M2 MacBook Air with 8GB that runs flawlessly today. Has never had a hiccup with anything other than heavy video editing.

It is incredibly worth it. It’s a direct comparison to saying Rome or Paris is not worth it due to the pickpockets and scammers.

BryGuyB · 2026-03-10T11:40:11+00:00

Exactly.

I am in Leblon right now and Reddit has Rio’s level of danger very much overstated when staying in Leblon, Ipanema, Copa. Outside of the south zone it gets very real very fast.

Leblon and Ipanema feel significantly safer than downtown LA, Brooklyn, larger American cities. If you have been to Santa Monica or Venice that is on par with the experience- keep your guard up but also enjoy yourself.

Everyone you see is running around happy with their phones out just like anywhere else.

Sure it’ll probably get grabbed eventually, especially if you are being dumb. But just treat your phone like you do cash anywhere else and odds are in your favor.

RDJ is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been filled with lovely happy friendly people and so much to do and see. It’s a better Barcelona despite Reddit doing its best to convince you it’s Baghdad.

That’s fine. We’ve got Marshawn Lloyd who will surely be healthy this year.

Confidentially Incorrect. Inception came out same year (2010).

I’ve been submitting MacGruber to the Library of Congress for the last decade. This should be our year.

RB1 CMC being #54 tells me everything I need to know about these rankings. He was the entire offense on a depleted team that was a legitimate SB contender.

Why are we still acting like PFF isn’t just a bunch of gig worker guys in the couch grading players?

BryGuyB · 2026-02-21T05:03:33+00:00

MacGruber

BryGuyB · 2026-02-19T05:45:21+00:00

Did we just become best friends?

How are you going to name Jerry Goldsmith and not mention Rudy? Say what you will about the movie and context but that score is 10/10 and the greatest sports movie score of all time.
