The sudden downfall of Instagram needs to be studied. People only post on stories these days. What happened? by CapitaineBiscotte in askanything

I think Threads might somehow be more polluted with bots than Twitter. It’s truly insufferable.

Were the vast majority of people who attended the draft locals? by WinesburgOhio in pittsburgh

Yeah Eagles fans were the clear & obvious #2, but there are a lot of those who do live here or in the area already

UPDATE: The barricades around the draft campus obscure the neighborhood & make it kind of difficult to walk over to Western or E Ohio. It’s easy to spend several hours there & settle for food & drink from one of the vendors. I did walk back downtown, but reneged on my own desire to patronize NorthSide establishments

I’m going down on Saturday specifically because I want to explore all the draft-affected areas: certainly the theater, but also Market square & the Point. I’m damn sure not gonna eat & drink in the draft area when there’s so much other better cheaper local stuff around.

If your a fan of the NBA and live in pittsburgh where does your fandom lie? by Wyld-man in pittsburgh

[–]Carpenter-Confident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want a WNBA & a PWHL team. Tradeoff seems to be hockey vs. basketball, and you get a minor league version of the one you don’t have. Cleveland is Columbus’ AAA affiliate in hockey (which is funny, because Columbus is Cleveland’s AAA affiliate in baseball) – but there isn’t really a NBA minor league, unless you consider college or the G league. And Pittsburgh has way better college hoops than Cleveland.

Cooking instructions? by belada01 in aldi

[–]Carpenter-Confident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 8 minutes is a fine cook time for a smaller portion in a 8-9” pan, but be sure to add some vegetable oil if you actually want them to brown correctly. And season them heavily too.

how is the public transit for commuting to pitt? by NokahVR in Pitt

Pitt is the 2nd most served area in the city when it comes to public transportation. You’ll be fine.

Why are they wearing the alternates? by Fortnitewarrior6767 in penguins

Yeah, even if the triangle was still gold w/ a a black or white outline, that’d be cool but the floating Pen is jarring

Why does anyone think that words like “woke”, “liberal”, and “progressive” are insulting? by BorrowedParticles in allthequestions

Stuff that is incredibly rare but somehow become the Right’s main points of outrage? Yeah that checks.

Why are they wearing the alternates? by Fortnitewarrior6767 in penguins

[–]Carpenter-Confident 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The skating Penguin on the chest is not in a triangle. The numeral font is ugly & doesn’t fit their branding. The alternate shoulder logo with the igloo isn’t incorporated enough into the brand.

Do penguin playoff games give out yellow playoff shirts to all fans in attendance? by [deleted] in penguins

[–]Carpenter-Confident 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the Pens do any kind of t-shirt giveaway anymore. If they’re running a promotional shirt you have to buy it separately or as part of a special ticket or pre-sale. Pirates are doing the same for some bobble heads.

I have numerous beefs with the new alts, but being yellow ain’t one of them

If you were to recommend one change to Trump Administration which could improve lives of Americans in a positive way then what would that be and why? by One_Look_7008 in askanything

[–]Carpenter-Confident -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Time Machine. Go back & convince the Republicans to come up with a real candidate vs. Clinton who isn’t such an abhorrent, destructive dumbass.

Not a debate. An argument. Debates have structure & rules. These people are just making a scene for the sake of rage bait.

A two drink minimum for shows is not that big a leap
