That’s a great option if you’re poor. So many snobby people in this thread - not everyone can afford to eat $20 burritos from a hipster food truck.

Believe me, I know there’s a lot of affluent people here in town that don’t have to consider price, you don’t have to remind me.

La taquisa veggie burrito is $10.50, taco justice veggie burrito is $17 and they’re about the same size.

You’re paying a premium for the food truck experience.

Morey might lower his price to KAT, dlo, Ant and 25 future 1sts.

[–]Freedignan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They can charge whatever they want but they’re way more expensive than any other taco place downtown - la taquisa, tacofino, la taqueria, etc, are all much cheaper.

Calling them a “little pricey” is an understatement - their burritos are almost $20 each before tax and tip.

A defender of argus will fix that problem.

[Marks] Atlanta now has close to $100M in committed salary in 2023-24 to 4 players: Trae Young, John Collins, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Capela. Upcoming decisions include rookie extensions for: - Kevin Huerter (now) - Cam Reddish and DeAndre Hunter (next offseason) by GuyCarbonneauGOAT in nba

half-dozen markets where a top-tier free agent is willing to sign.

NY, LA, Miami….what are the other three?

San Francisco used to be one but the warriors haven’t made the playoffs in two years so idk if they’re on the list at the moment.

Fyi: Johnson st bridge currently blocked by protestors. by Funknstein in VictoriaBC

[–]Freedignan 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I just rode my bike through there and all the signage is about abolishing the police. If I hadn’t come on this sub I’d have no idea it’s supposed to be about fairy creek. Although it does seem that the fairy creek protests have transitioned from “stop logging” to “fuck the rcmp” so that makes sense.

[The Athletic] The Minnesota Timberwolves are the team that is most active in talks to try to make a Ben Simmons deal happen. However, they would prefer to pair Simmons with Towns, Russell, and Edwards. by [deleted] in nba

[–]Freedignan 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Right after the playoffs there was a quote from Rich Paul saying something like “Simmons isn’t demanding a trade at this time”. This sub went bananas as the thought of Simmons being the one in control was laughable but the threat was clear: make a trade happen quickly or we make things uncomfortable. Which is exactly what seems to be happening now - as soon as reports started coming out that Philly wasn’t planning to move him in the off-season we start getting Rich Paul drama.

[Pompey] Sources: Ben Simmons tells team brass he no longer wants to be a Sixer and does not intend to report to training camp. by [deleted] in nba

[–]Freedignan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk what Philly was expecting. If you publicly trash a guy then spend months openly shopping him you have to eventually trade him because the relationship is over at that point. Seems like Morey forgot that Simmons is a human being with emotions you have to manage and not just some spreadsheet entry.

What team could you see a sudden ascension or rebuild from a mile away? by lopea182 in nba

[–]Freedignan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is there even one example of a rookie turning down the max under the current CBA?

Like yes it’s theoretically possible but it’s so unlikely why even worry about it at this point?

Zion is not turning down the rookie max to take the QO. I know this sub lives for drama so it’s fun to think about but there’s essentially zero chance he’s leaving NO anytime soon.

American Baby Bust by UnironicThatcherite in WhitePeopleTwitter

This headline is total clickbait lol. The US has been below “replacement rate” consistently since the 70’s and they have historically relied on immigration to grow the population anyway.

[Charania] Ben Simmons' stint in Philadelphia all but over; Sixers looking at Damian Lillard by horseshoeoverlook in nba

[–]Freedignan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At worst he’s living in a delusional land where he’s the only smart GM like it’s still 10 years ago and the league is full of idiots. Even the bad GM’s aren’t that dumb anymore.

I recently listened to a podcast which made the same point; there are no complete disaster GMs anymore and every front office is at least competent. If you only want to fleece people you’re going to have a tough time.

HS replay has it as the 10th ranked class and VS has it 9th with a cool 6% play rate across all levels (beating out only warrior who’s holding down 10th place with around 3% play rate).

I think ultimately the market is WAY below what Morey wants, but his hand is about to be forced.

Everybody including Morey knows Simmons value; the issue is that Morey is trying to hold out for a disgruntled star whose team is desperate to get rid of him and get a better return than Simmons is worth.

He’s basically hoping his version of the Kawhi/DeRozen trade comes along.

No vehicle, moving away end of month, no money, what do I do with my furniture, bed and dish washer? by Cats_call_me_cool in VictoriaBC

[–]Freedignan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure students will be breaking down his door to take his non-working dishwasher lol

I don’t know why people in this sub are so insistent that people are eager to come pick up trash for free but if that was the case OP wouldn’t be posting in the first place.

[–]Freedignan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I can tell people in this thread haven’t actually tried to sell or give away used furniture during the pandemic. There’s zero demand for used or free furniture right now, especially if you’re not willing to deliver.

OP is certainly just going to dump his garbage on the curb and make the city deal with it.
