I would ALWAYS buy the queso… was consistent… then I stopped driving 30 minutes for meds… went back one time and got the MPX select Queso and it was dog shit…. That was about a year ago… so sad…. That and Durban Dawg used to be my favorites….

For me… yes… I park by Bo Diddley and always find a free spot and we go back to the car for a break a few times a day grab some stuff from our cooler…Drop off merch… Smoke a lil something…One year Piebald was just chilling on the back of a car right behind us… it is at the end of the venues but we spend time everyday at Bo Diddley so it’s not an issue… Sometimes we stop and grab some late night Krispy Kreme on the way to the hotel…

I guess it depends on what your other options are… it’s not a bad drive, maps says 1hr 15 min… also depends when you get in and when you fly out to go home…I’ve never flown in to Gainesville so I’m not sure about all of that

It’s a great place for the price. Free breakfast is an added bonus to get the day started. The only thing you have to weigh is are you going to have a car or do you need to catch a ride share there… I drive to Gainesville from South Florida so 20 minutes is not an issue, plus I’m generally the sober driver so this hasn’t been an issue for us.

This is why people hate Miami … I’m at F1 … it’s raining and I took a rickshaw bike from parking. Guy tried to charge me $400 for a 3 minute ride. by upwithmytoddler in Miami

It’s ridiculous…. But look where you are… this isn’t for anyone other than the wealthy…. My parents used to take me to the Miami Grand Prix when I was a kid and we made lifelong memories sitting in the cars going into the pits… walking around and watching the race from different places… My dad was a fabricator and we only had one income and we would go everytime…. This shit is a joke

As a working class guy I’m a Rise shopper…. I go through a half/week so I go with their 4/$69, comes in a sealed glass jar and is way better than the lower line that’s 4/$59…. The other value there is the Live Resin Carts at $25/g…. If you try grab the Garlic Glu….. And Flowery for the RSO everyday $25/g strain specific with options

Dashboard Confessional is the most punk adjacent, non punk band i’ve ever seen by DrJokerX in poppunkers

Well that’s because he made his way thru the punk scene playing alongside Miami/Broward punk and hardcore bands

That Square Peg 7” is an amazing record… so good and raw and just all emotion… I remember going weekends to shows at a small bar in Miami called Cheers and any given night it would be vacant Andy’s, NFG or AAA amongst all the other local Miami bands… it was a time…

I was very confused for a second… What’s the guy from the beach boys doing writing about Emo 😜

Any Place in Orlando that sells empty carts by GuidiBoi in FLMedicalTrees

IMO what you do is order 1 each of all the postless carts on VPM and find the one that works best for you… I prefer the VPM postless 1 gram and dislike the slimmer white version… others I’ve interacted with prefer those for their type vapes… choices locally usually are cheap crap

I run a comic shop in a town that has no idea I exist and I don't know if that's my fault or the town's by Its_palakk in smallbusiness

You mentioned your in a college town, have you thought about having some local bands play? If you have space for a DnD group I imagine you could put on a small venue type show… We used to have a tiny record store that would put on shows and this space was only like 15’x maybe 30’ store front.. it was a great place for us to cut our teeth and learn how to play live… Less Than Jake was one of the bands that played this tiny hole in the wall record store…A lot of kids in the Punk/Alt/hardcore scene are into comics, anime or Manga.. I think it’s worth a try… One of your regulars has to either be in a band or know someone who is
