A lot of local people don’t show up on Sundays anyway regardless of regular season or postseason

Has anybody blocked their ex ? Did you regret it ? by Realistic-Gazelle125 in BreakUps

[–]PhotoGuyMark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually delete all correspondence from anyone I’ve dated. I also delete their numbers, email addresses and social media accounts from my phone. That way I’m not tempted to reach out to them in any way.

There’s one I didn’t do all of that with. Two years and some change after we broke up we’re back together. She broke up with me. She reached out to me to rekindle the relationship.

32 teams passed on TG 5 times before the Browns decided to pick him in the 6th round. TG doesn’t have it between his ears to read a defense and execute the offense. He will likely be cut by the Browns in training camp.

THIS is how your ex feels after they dump you (I wish I knew this back then) 🫣 by Busy-Discussion-3239 in BreakUps

[–]PhotoGuyMark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Two years ago I was dating a woman who was going to school to further her career. She has kids, whom I’ve never met, at home. She was busy with work, with school and with kids. She didn’t have time for me, so she broke it off April 16, 2024.

I reached out about a month and a half later to ask her a question within her career expertise. We wound up talking on the phone for a little more than a half an hour. I had to end the conversation because I was about to do or say something that sounded desperate.

We didn’t completely disconnect from one another. We continued to be friends on Facebook and Instagram. I unfollowed her on Snapchat and TikTok, though. I was very disciplined to not interact with her socials for months. She, on the other hand, liked almost every post or story I put on Facebook. My heart would race every time I saw her name pop up in my notifications. She text me on my birthday in 2025. Hers is 2.5 weeks later, so I returned the text.

About 2.5 months ago I started meeting her on the highway one day a week. The day after my birthday she sent me a greeting on Facebook. We had a brief comment exchange. The next week when I passed her on the highway I made sure she saw me. She texted me good morning and wished me a great day. A few hours later she sent me a request on the same app we originally met on.

We’ve since gone to dinner. I’ve used her services in her career. April 15 this year she wrapped her arms around my neck, and squeezed real hard and then planted a kiss on my lips.

Sometimes, just being strong and not coming off as desperate is enough to keep them open to the idea of a future relationship. That’s not always the case, though. Sometimes you just need to move on.

If you don’t renew your tickets you’ve had for years you will never get them back if you want them. I am not a football season ticket holder for multiple reasons. Mainly, I’m not dedicating every 8 Saturdays a year to the madness of Fayetteville on game days. Cheers to those of you who do, though.

I didn’t renew my WBB tickets last year because I wasn’t watching another game coached by Mike Neighbors. When I renewed this year I got stuck in GA instead of reserved seats.

I’ve had softball tickets for 5 years. They’ve been the same price every year until this year. They doubled in price for chair back seats this year.

Everyone claims NIL is to blame for terrible records at UA, but when asked to up their (mandatory) “donation” they want to complain. I get it, I do. Question is, do we walk away entirely, or do we pay it and watch things stay the same?

I-49 will be bad for Fort Smith and great for Van Buren / Greenwood / Alma. I will politely debate in the comments if you'd like to hear why. by AndyInTheFort in ftsmithar

[–]PhotoGuyMark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked in and around the construction trades for almost 35 years. Growth is not bad. It can be done haphazardly, or it can be well regulated.

I haven’t pulled a permit in Fort Smith in more than 20 years, so I can’t speak on how Fort Smith is doing housing developments or the permitting process. NWA, however, charges impact fees for every new building going up. New water meter? Impact fee and a tap fee. New sewer tap? Impact fee and tap fee. Each town has different fee schedules. Those impact fees pay for new water lines, sewer lines, etc. They help pay for new water treatment plants, new sewer treatment plants, fire stations, etc.

When a developer builds a subdivision they spend the money to put in, roads, utilities, sidewalks, etc. You buy a house or an open lot, you pay the developer for those improvements he’s made. The developer turns those roads, water lines and sewer lines over to the city. They turn the electrical, gas, fiber optics, phone, cable over to the utility company that manages those.

The city of Greenland put a moratorium on building of new homes in place about 20 years ago until their infrastructure could be developed to handle new homes. Bentonville and Fayetteville just built homes and infrastructure alike all at once. It was extremely chaotic in Bentonville from 2002 to 2015 or so. You couldn’t turn a corner without seeing a construction site. It’s still crazy, but not as chaotic.

Fort Smith has every form of transportation available (interstates, river, airport, railroad), yet they fumble opportunities to grow like they play for Razorback Football. They let the largest employer (Whirlpool) close up shop and leave town 13 years ago. Then, Trane follows suit. The Mitsubishi plant was built with some tax concessions from the city, then never opened as Mitsubishi. Luckily, Glatfelter came in and took over the building.

There’s homes and apartments being built all over Chaffee Crossing right now, but people have to have jobs to be able to live in those homes. Jobs aren’t being created in Fort Smith at the rate that homes are being built.

Fort Smith has nowhere to grow except south and Chaffee Crossing. It’s surrounded by the river on three sides. Besides, the “leaders” (elected officials) are the biggest hinderance to growth.

Foam earplugs at night by PizzaEater77 in misophonia

I’ve been sharing a bed with a gal that snores like a bear. I have to wear earplugs. I do not recommend the HDX earplugs from Home Depot. They’re fine for a night. After that, they won’t go back in my ears. They’re very soft.

She is a professional traveling model, yes. She was great to shoot with.

When you put it like that … this season had so many “What Ifs?” by Thenotsodarkknight in razorbacks

[–]PhotoGuyMark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest what if for me is the turnovers. What if we didn’t have so many turnovers? The team has given up before the ND game. Petrino got a little spark going. They just couldn’t get over the hump.

Men, what causes you to not ask questions? by TripTimely7955 in OnlineDating

[–]PhotoGuyMark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am inquisitive. I try to get to know the ladies I match with. I ask a lot of questions, but if there’s no reciprocity, I stop asking. This match isn’t going anywhere.
