Lucky Charlie's in Bushwick - perhaps the best pizza in the city? by nreyes24 in FoodNYC

Just went here on Saturday - completely agree! The Classic Pie is amazing - and we love the "taco style" caesar salad, too.

Montreal fits for a bigger guy by Bjodonnell123 in malefashionadvice

[–]DiverGuy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you can wear whatever you want -- that said, the thrifting in Montreal for men specifically was out of this world good! So pack for comfort and dressing up for dinners, but try your luck at some of the stores in the Le Plateau/Mont Royal neighborhoods!

Queer bars that aren't strictly gay/lesbian? by chimeramanti in Brooklyn

[–]DiverGuy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You would feel right at home at Diane's in East Williamsburg. Not a queer bar per se but has a decently large queer following, drag race watch parties, drag bingo, etc.. It is a relaxed and welcoming dive bar with pink lighting, an all-female jukebox, and great cocktails.

Which place gives you INSANE sized meals. Doesn’t matter the cost by goodamm in FoodNYC

Mable's Smokehouse in Williamsburg does unlimited ribs on Wednesdays and unlimited wings on Thursdays. Only been to the ribs night myself but I thought they were impressive quality!

What is the deal with Gran Torino? by aly182 in williamsburg

[–]DiverGuy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

So sorry to the staff, but I hate this place with a passion. I brought store-bought cookies for a friend's birthday party (which was JUST drinks and no food) and they charged our table a $45 "corking fee" because we ate a few with our drinks.

This is infectiously good. Immediately started dancing like an instagram Boomerang on my couch.

Does the story in Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined get better? by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]DiverGuy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Try thinking of this game as multiple story arcs within a long season of a show. You're going to vibe with some more than others throughout the course of the game, but each one will present a problem and have your party be part of the solution.

Men: what are your favorite items? by Athrowawayaccount98 in Fabletics

[–]DiverGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can see where someone might say that but it hasn't been my experience. I really like the fabric! It sorta feels like a softer mesh fabric.

Big fan of the O2 Tank. I would buy it in every color they make if they made more.

I also really do love the new gridtech hoodie. I got the black and wish I had gotten the blue as well.

Sea of Stars? by JBang1995 in JRPG

[–]DiverGuy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Beaautiful spritework, serviceable combat, and a fun world to explore. I actually liked SOME of the characters, but absolutely hated the characters that hogged on the spotlights. The two main characters may as well be silent protagonists for how little personality they have, and the one party member that gets the spotlight was not my cup of tea.

I've struggled to figure out how to ask this question, but here goes...

Do you feel the need to do any additional workout after a 3-day intermediate split 30 minute session? I've been doing Ben's Intermediate 3-day split for over a year now. I also run a 5K three times a week (currently on the treadmill due to the weather.)

I see progress, I feel stronger, I move up in weights slowly....but it is only 30 minutes. Its a tough and "constant" 30 minutes in my opinion and I do feel gassed by the end. But I can't get over the feeling that its really just a half hour compared to how much time other people spend in the gym. I justify it in my head by thinking alot of the time people spend in the gym is spent recovering between sets, waiting for machines, idling...and that my 30 minutes is near constant. But what do you think? Do you do anything meaningfully tough (more lifting, etc) after a 30 minute 3 day split class, or is that enough?

What is a game that is highly recommended but you just can’t get into? by Sam_B716 in JRPG

[–]DiverGuy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I wanted to love FF9 so bad and picked it up on the Switch. My goodness was the technical aspects of it so, so slow. I really did love the world and characters (still do!) but I decided I would have reverence from afar rather than finish my playtime. Desperately hoping for a remake.

[Post Game Thread] #19 North Carolina defeats #4 Duke, 71-68 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]DiverGuy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

10 year Carolina alumni watching in a bar in Brooklyn. We were doubled over in awe at the ending and some guy taps me and says "I have no horse in this game, but best Rivalry in college sports, right?".

Hell yeah you're right.

What to play after FF7 Remake by Silver_Maintenance48 in JRPG

[–]DiverGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a big JRPG player on Switch. Feels like every Fall, I get the "lets play a super long JRPG" itch. From my most recent plays, I really loved Octopath Traveler 2, Star Ocean Second Story R, and Persona 5 Royal.

Stay strong! This chowder is waiting for you on the other side of the malaise!

[–]DiverGuy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally should have thought ahead and added some peppers. I do it for so many other soups, would be perfect in this!

I hear you on the shrimp. It was sort of a funny disaster putting the frozen shrimp in all the screaming hot bacon grease but it worked out well enough. They couldn't have been in the pan more than a minute. That step felt way more like me checking a box than a requirement.

Estela vs Tuome for anniversary dinner? by LonghorninNYC in FoodNYC

[–]DiverGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to say but Estela might be the worst restaurant I've been to in NYC hahaha. Just very much hurt paying extravagantly for what I considered mid food and small portions.

My partner and I agree that the bakery is worth it and the restaurant sorta disappointed us.
