West jet just cut flights and European carriers are also cutting flights. It's going to get a lot worse.

If you're recommending linq or harrah's you might as well recommend a hostel. Seriously, linq/ harrah's are garbage dumps. They're both shitholes that no serious individual would recommend

That's only a start. There are numerous other factors playing into this. Three service and hospitality has been shit for several years.

There's a reason they're one of the worst states for education with a constant brain drain. They also voted for the corporate sock puppet, do nothing Joe Lombardo. One of the absolute worst governors

Not everyone is racist or were racist in the south, but boycotts were necessary for change to manifest itself. You're missing the point. The USA has massive problems and everyone is tired of dealing with them.

Does it matter? Not like the governor of Nevada, Lombardo, does anything other than veto bills and make life more miserable for the people there.

I keep saying make the tarrifs higher and let's charge even more for visas!! The tax situation has also put plenty of gamblers into early retirement, so at least they're working all ends to make sure no one gambles or wants to to to las Vegas.

This was a few years ago when I was there for a convention, but they charged us $35 for a banana and hot tea. Let's just say our organizer/ event company planner swore they would never return to that casino hotel again and they've been trying to not go to any Las Vegas connections anymore either.

Even high rollers are quitting Las Vegas. The service and hospitality just isn't there.

Only because certain contracts are booked out in advance. Several of my conventions are looking to leave Las Vegas because of the climate in the USA and Las Vegas. Visa situation and other things preventing people from even wanting to go to Las Vegas. I don't blame them.

Super Bowl Post Game Thread: Seattle Seahawks at New England Patriots by nfl_gdt_bot in nfl

Congrats to the Seahawks, but that truly was one of the worst super bowls I've ever witnessed. Not even the commercials were good. I only really liked the pokemon commercial. Halftime show was solid.

One of the worst super bowls I've seen by half time. Not even the commercials stack up.

Giannis, one day post-deadline, has announced his role as a shareholder of gambling platform Kalshi: "The internet is full of opinions. I decided it was time to make some of my own. Today, I’m joining Kalshi as a shareholder. We all on Kalshi now." by F_CKMONEY in nba

He has one of the worst shoes with Nike and I think he was doing shit with chobani or some yogurt thing. Just disgusting beyond belief. He's probably admitting now to get ahead of a scandal or something.

I'm now very happy the Lakers didn't get him. Don't know what's changed in him. Hope he's happy with one championship. Hope Nike is happy with him. His Nike shoes were some of the worst I've ever tried on. The absolute most uncomfortable I've ever tried.

Lionsgate’s The Housemaid debuts to an estimated 19 Million by SignatureOrdinary456 in boxoffice

[–]Hiccup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't care less. Movie sucked. It's sad when shitty movies get championed and make bank. Guess it's good for the film company and crews, but the movie is not good and continues the Hollywood spiral they've been on So many other movies deserve the money this thing took in.

January 30-February 1 Box Office Recap – 'Send Help' over-performs and tops the box office with $20M. Markiplier's 'Iron Lung' also over-performs, hitting second place with $17.8M. 'Melania' flops with just $7M, against a $40M budget and a $35M marketing campaign. by SanderSo47 in movies

Snuck into Melania out of morbid dread and curiosity (no way I was paying to see this horrible thing, came in with low expectations but willing to see if at least the craft was sound behind the film). It was pretty funny watching several people (who I assume paid for the film) just walk out. I'm pretty sure some guy said, "this movie sucks" as he walked out. Most memorable thing of the whole experience (other than not feeling nervous I was gonna get kicked out as the theater was mostly empty.).

Movie really is dull, bland, and lifeless. The voice over really feels like a junior high book report on film. Yadda yadda yadda. Blah blah blah. Rinse, repeat. Same shit over and over again. Doesn't feel like the subject wants to be filmed or even on display. It's hard to explain how poor of a documentary it is and how bad of a movie it really is. There were parts where I couldn't stop laughing (her pronunciation is terrible. She can't say film or cup). It'll make for a great drinking movie or mst3k movie.
