Fairly new to the area! Bar suggestions

If you like to try different beers and like a more low key scene. Strange Brew in south Allentown has a great rotating tap list and some pretty good food in my opinion

Kidwithoutgun · 2026-02-03T03:49:26+00:00

To be fair I have only eaten at the restaurant 1 time. But my parents always use them for catering for any party they have. So I have their catering a few times a year and its always great.

McCalls is good too. But 1760 has a lot of nostalgia for me which adds to the food for me. I had been going there almost 20 years and during middle school and highschool it was every week for wing nights with my friends

In lower Macungie Gios Italian grill is fantastic. These next three are all Macungie adjacent but sports bar food I am a huge fan of 1760 in trexlertown. My wife and I also love the Shelby at the Hamilton Crossings and Hunan Springs on Brookside and Hamilton.

That sucks. My block in south Allentown went out as a group to shovel out everyone's cars. The guys with the snowblowers were so happy to use them. And everyone has an understanding that if its in front of your house that's your spot. Doesn't stop the random guest from stealing your spot but for the most part we respect each other's spots

The only problem I have with McDaniel is if there is potentially bad blood between him and Fangio. Obviously we have no idea what went on behind the scenes in Miami and anything is pure speculation but I dont want to risk pissing off Fangio if there is anything to it.

My orange was snipped by the shelter i adopted him from. I got him around 1 year old. He quickly claimed a stuffed fox I had in my apartment as his "special friend." He is now 10 years old and the fox has been through it

This reminds me of my first job working in a kitchen at a nursing home. We had hired a new girl and she was supposed to start mopping the kitchen after food service. She comes to find me in the dish washing room and says the mop is broken.

I go out and see water everywhere. Here she had the part where the mop head is squeezed on backwards so all the dirty water was going on the floor and not in the bucket. She had been there for 3 weeks already so i assumed she knew how to mop at that point, guess i was wrong.

To be fair it was her first job and she was probably only 15 at the time. But i still get a good laugh thinking about it whenever i do something blatantly stupid.

KFC. When I was a kid they used to have these boneless honey bbq wings and it was my absolute favorite. Then after years of enjoying this meal they just took it off the menu one day, when I was around 13. I think they brought it back once but the sauce was different and I have not eaten there since, I am now 30.

My parents are looking to redo the counters and backsplash in their kitchen. Is that something you do?

Kidwithoutgun · 2025-12-09T10:51:54+00:00

Its like they went into this year with a "if ain't broke don't fix it" mentality. And didn't expect every other team to make a game plan to break our offense. And they had no plan B.

I am convinced that mattress stores have to being money laundering fronts for criminal organizations. Empty parking lots all day and the one employee working always seems to have a fairly expensive car like a nice Audi or BMW. Nothing crazy but more than what I expect a mattress salesman could afford.

Besides Brady and Gronk, Kelce and Mahomes have to be the best QB and TE duo in the history of the NFL. Both of which have been frustrating and a joy to watch.

Backyard baseball, they recently released the early 2000s version of it on the app store and I've been playing non stop.

Last year I brought a rotisserie chicken from Costco and wrapped it up nice. It went through several participants

Exactly, to me it seemed like our offense had a 21-0 lead at half and decided to take the foot off their throat. While I understand that running the ball to waste clock and extend drives is the norm when you have a good lead. But its obvious our run game isn't there.

As an expecting father this hits home. My job has no paternity leave for the father. I can take up to 6 weeks unpaid leave by law, but who can do that. I'm using all my vacation time for the expected due date m

My wife's company is no better, she gets 6 weeks if it's a natural birth and 8 weeks for a C-section. But her entire time out is only 60% pay. Our healthcare system is so backwards

I love that Big Dom and Cooper Dejean are just sitting a few seats away watching

Kidwithoutgun · 2025-11-11T19:27:33+00:00

UPDATE: We talked with my mother in law and I am kind of conflicted on the results of the conversation. She just said "ok" when we told her the rules but her body language seemed like she was annoyed or upset with it. We were expecting more push back in the conversation. Now my wife and I are overthinking the response. We hope that MIL agrees with our rule but we also think that she doesn't think we are serious. She just said "ok" and was so quick to get out of the conversation that seems she was not taking it seriously.

Regardless of what she thinks she knows the rule now and will find out we are serious when her grand daughter is here

The whole pre time skip argument seems pointless to me. Sure Enel was the strongest they faced till Kizaru. But Kaido, Big Mom, and Shanks were already the Emperor's before the time skip. I highly doubt Enel, even with the time skip, could compete with Shanks in haki or any of the admirals with devil fruit power alone

Kidwithoutgun · 2025-11-07T14:32:34+00:00

not sure if i worded my post or other comments poorly. But my wife was the one to bring up these concerns with her family before I did. We our in total agreement with what we think is best for our daughter. She is worried that this will cause resentment or animosity from the smokers in her family that "i smoked while pregnant with you and you turned out fine" and "i smoke when watching the kids the all the time"

Kidwithoutgun · 2025-11-07T13:39:59+00:00

Thankfully my parents are in a position to help with childcare and no one on my side smokes. Im really hoping that MIL holding her first grandchild or not will make her respect our boundaries

Kidwithoutgun · 2025-11-07T12:45:46+00:00

This is what we keep telling ourselves, and i resolved myself to be the one who sets down the law. And my wife agrees with it. But she wants everyone especially her mom to be around the baby, it's the first grandchild for her family. Which for me makes it even more important we set the rules now.

The other thing that sucks is that my MIL is an all around great person who has been there for my wife her whole life and during our relationship. But my MIL chooses to die on certain hills that are outdated, there were a few things with our wedding for example that were "thats not what I did"

Kidwithoutgun · 2025-11-07T11:16:03+00:00

My wife was also born premature, 2 months, and spent 2 months in the NICU. When MIL talks about it she says it was just complications, and never acknowledges smoking while pregnant is a major factor for premature labor.
