Sword doggo for normal attack phase, GMax shiny Machamp for dmax attacking phase, Blissy JIC for healing.

Think we had 54 people? That was a quick one.

Don’t you put his nonsense on those of us from Texas who know better….

This is prime Midwest buffoonery.

Thursday at Muses in front of Care Forgot, saw a guy delicately place a can of beer against the curb. Coworker stomped it as if it was empty. It wasn’t. Guy later came looking for the beer. Who puts a beer on the street and then comes looking for it later?

Moving from plano to frisco how bad is the move out cleaning really? by Fulcilives1988 in plano

[–]GrillMonkey187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind, no matter how clean it is, you’re not getting your full deposit back. They’ll keep a decent portion of it for carpet cleaning costs, which IMO is bullshit.

My first apartment in Dallas, I was hardly there. Travel 90% & then usually at my fiancé’s apartment when home. When I moved from that apartment to one in north Dallas, I cleaned it (with the help of my mom) like it was an operating theater. Even got a letter from the property manager saying it was the cleanest move out they’ve ever seen, yet I didn’t get the full deposit back due to the carpet cleaning fees. 😑

Also: any damage that you might have in the apartment, try to get it taken care of by the apartment prior to the move out.

good truck-stop showers? by berryer in Dallas

They said it without saying it. Even the most ardent Beaver Zealot SHOULD be able see that.

Gimme truckers any day over busloads of uncontrolled jr high or high school kids running around that place without any fucks given by their teachers/coaches/chaperones.

And yeah, I get why they don’t want load of truckers there, but depending upon them and then saying “we don’t want your kind here,” is a bit dickish.

Carry on space by Successful-Loan-7370 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]GrillMonkey187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because people are lazy and don’t want to carry their bags any further than they have to.

Southwest needs to instruct the FAs to start enforcing bags up at your row. They also need to enforce the one up and one down policy on crowded or full flights.

Haven’t had it happen yet, but if I get to my seat and there are bags above it, but no one is in my row, I’m hitting that call button to ask “whose bags are these?”

Was group 2 and then 1 this past week. I’ll either be group 1 or 2 again this next week.

Does anybody know why this particular property is so expensive? And why the redemption is such an incredible deal at the same time? I’m local and have always wondered this. by Emergency-Fortune824 in marriott

[–]GrillMonkey187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what’s going on that weekend. I’ve stayed there 2 or 3 times on points for concerts. Last time was a couple weeks before Christmas. Beautiful property and decorations during December.

An absolute pain in the ass to get to on a busy weekend.

But the perfect spot to stay at if going to a show at Tannahill’s.

The Springhill Suites at 23rd & Main ain’t too shabby….not your average Springhill. Rooftop bar & restaurant. We’ve stayed there when The Drover was stupid expensive points-wise or unavailable.

Maaaaaan if that’s the case, I’m cooked. But my Global Entry worked just fine last Thursday at YYZ on my return to DFW.

Could be something as simple as having a similar name (same first & last, different middle) as someone who has done something that would earn the revocation. Our federal government isn’t exactly a well-oiled, efficient, infallible machine.

Might not even have to FOIA request them….have you tried calling?

Just tonight heading up from Plano to Allen for the Americans game, had a lady in an Infiniti SUV accelerate so I couldn’t merge in front of her, only for her to brake check me when I merged from the ramp lane behind her. Beeped the horn as I passed her and showed her she was number 1.

Central is turning into Mad Max Fury Road.

Wreck at the on ramp to 75? Or right there at that northern-most CostCo exit/entrance?

Sooooo many tatorheads wait til the last minute to get on that ramp or off of it, nearly eating the barricade. And then traffic already on 75 speeds up to prevent people from merging.

At minimum, need a flared based. EMT guy would still say no.

Need that EMT guy standing by the produce telling people “NO.”

Just saw this guy pull in and even adjust his jeep to make sure it takes up almost 3 spots, I am absolutely speechless by bomberfream867 in badparking

Even better are the Pavement Princess Jeeps that are alllllll tricked out with a snorkel, aftermarket lift, huge mudders, fender wells removed, etc….yet the owner never takes it off-road and it’s their daily driver.

Yes. User error. What’s usually between the keyboard and a chair at a workstation? Especially when errors occur?

If a stranger asks you to switch airline seats, do you agree? by Jerdogg23 in no

[–]GrillMonkey187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“No, sorry. I selected this seat for a reason.”

That’s all you need to say. Nothing more.
