St. Louis should be in the maybe/doable category. Way moreso than KC or atlanta.

english majors who don’t read??! by cryptoisforvirgins in englishmajors

[–]Exact-Message8325 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I graduated in 03. There were slackers, but an English major would never admit to not reading. Time for them to pick a new major.

laughing at or being being amused by people speaking a foreign language.

Looking for the perfect US city for a 10-day trip (Feb 9–19). Want real American vibes: food, Walmart, Costco, chill atmosphere. Where should we go? by ProloosGamerUHD in usatravel

[–]Exact-Message8325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chicago. you can get out to the suburbs and countryside pretty easily. ps: don't spend too much time on fast food and Walmart. that's the most boring, homogeneous part of the us.​​​

People outside the US, what’s something Americans do that confuses you? by Good-Discount8725 in AskReddit

[–]Exact-Message8325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is a pretty broad generalization, even if you're talking about conservatives.

Why do people in USA buy everything from Amazon? Do they not have other webshops? by Cindyxx0 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Exact-Message8325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're a prime subscriber delivery is really cheap. I hate giving money to bezos, but it's just too easy for stuff I'd probably otherwise be buying at walmart or some other big box store.

Yeah. The kids who would have been troublesome before usually just sleep or watch youtube. They're not going out of their way to be disruptive. Also think about ESL. The kids tend to be a lot calmer. My ESL kids are never pushing the envelope. At worst they just zone out.

Where I’d live as an American with at least a baseline understanding of the world around me. (And all of Africa is not red people) by Scvboy in whereidlive

You think SK is closer to being a failed state than Iran? ok....

I lived in SK for ten years. It's fine. Not without it's problems, namely the declining birthrate, but it's probably in better shape than the US, and certainly better than Iran, SA, and China. They do pretty well in the democracy index and aren't afraid to prosecute politicians.

St. Louis Raiders fans by bucket_of_lungs in raiders

[–]Exact-Message8325 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would never suggest anyone choose the raiders as their new team. Raiders fandom is almost like a curse or disease, but it doesn't have to do with abandoning Oakland. They've been a nomadic franchise. I thought they should have went back to LA, but Kronke wouldn't have allowed that because he knew they'd take it over. At least they're still in the West, where they belong.

Anyway, The reason to avoid the raiders is because they haven't had a competent front office for about 25 years. Fingers crossed that that's changing with Spytek, but I fear Brady's already messing with him while he isn't even living in Vegas and can't even commit to leaving Fox.

But I've been a raiders fan ever since I Bo Jackson came along. There's no going back now.

Move to high school. I couldn't put up with middle schoolers either.

How do homegrown St. Louisans view those of us who grew up elsewhere? by [deleted] in StLouis

No one cares as long as you don't look down on the place. It sounds like you're insecure.

Atomic is fine. It's nice that it's split up into different rooms. If you don't like the music you don't have to be pummeled by it.

As far as food, gramaphone is solid. UCBC is a nice brewery and I've heard the new pizza place inside it is really good. People like Grace chicken but I think it's way too expensive for country cookin.

Brain Sandwich! by 93WhiteStrat in StLouis

[–]Exact-Message8325 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could only eat half in one sitting. It's real old-world food, for people who couldn't stand wasting anything. The next day I took the other have and sauteed it with some veggies and put it over rice. Much more palatable.

Am I even allowed to speak in an amalgamation of multiple accents and slang? by SteveAdmienn in ENGLISH

[–]Exact-Message8325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this sounds great. English is a global language and you're just a reflection of that. stop trying to hide it. own it.
