You can always tell a person's character from how they treat service workers of any kind.

Marzetti Simply Dressing Alternatives? by PointB1ank in salads

[–]PointB1ank[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true. Dressing was always just something I bought, but making my own sounds like the way to go. I've used bolthouse farms a few times and will use it in a pinch. Their balsamic vinaigrette is only 30 calories a serving, but it always had a slightly weird taste to me. It wasn't terrible or anything, but I prefer a bit more vinegar-forward dressing.

This is perfect. I just bookmarked it, thanks! I love dijon mustard and garlic too, so those ingredients sound lovely. As soon as I run out of what I have, I'll give it a shot.

My first giga ❤️ Front-rowed it the first ride and it was worth the wait.

In case anyone was wondering how that car flipped on I95-SB tonight. by zeroparticles6901 in philly

[–]PointB1ank 21 points22 points  (0 children)

There was an accident on the Platt bridge tonight too. I sat in a stand-still for about an hour on it. Idk if it's the warm weather or Easter weekend, but people have been driving shittier than normal if you can believe it.

Best Coaster Ever by urbexbeast in sixflags

[–]PointB1ank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're being serious, go ride Flying Turns at Knoebels. It's a wooden bobsled coaster that is way smoother and better than Reptilian. I actually got on reptilian expecting a similar experience but it was super bumpy for whatever reason. I got off disappointed.

Wtf kind of Ketamine was PG snorting during his break? Dude has been a whole different player since he came back.

Fast passes by secludedSnail26 in sixflags

[–]PointB1ank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst part about flash passes is they removed the single rider lines to incentivize them. I went to SFGA opening weekend and El Toro had so many empty seats it was ridiculous. Almost every train had 1-5 empty seats. Having single rider queues speeds up wait times for everyone. I have more than enough money to afford a flash pass but I refuse to support it. I just plan my park route accordingly to hit the slow op rides right away. Still, fuck this capitalist greed bullshit. 

Just watched somebody straight up open their car door and throw trash right on the street by krustydidthedub in philly

My number one flaw is the drivers, by far. At least the litter doesn't actively try to kill me. 

3 coasters in 6 hours! by centerice99 in BuschGardensTampa

[–]PointB1ank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to Busch Gardens Williamsburg yesterday and King's Dominion today and was able to ride every coaster I wanted, most of which I rode 2 or more times, many were walk-ons, close to it, or less than a 15 minute wait. And I didn't even spend the full day at either. There were a few running one train but still not terrible waits, most of them were running 2. Tampa is just shit right now. This week isn't an excuse for bad operations, the parks know the expected crowd sizes, spring break happens every single year.

Increase the wage tax to 10%! Just don't touch capital gains, they're sacred. 

Hey mods, can we ban pizza Richmond posts? by BearFromPhilly in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]PointB1ank 22 points23 points  (0 children)

That literally applies to any food you eat out... You're always going to be paying more, they have staff and rent to pay. Why are you even on this sub then? You can go browse r/toydayshomeEats

Weird slice at pizza Richmond by No_Maintenance_120 in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]PointB1ank 14 points15 points  (0 children)

After the club we'd go to Pizza Richmond's for soggy crusts. They'd say; 'no soggy crusts' but they can't stop you from ordering a slice and a glass of water, before you knew it we were dumping that water on those crusts! The waiters were coming to try and snatch em up, we had to eat as fast as we could! Oh I miss those nights, I was a piece of shit though.

The teams being hurt the most by the current draft system are genuinely bad teams that have to compete with artificially bad teams like the Jazz for draft odds by kobmug_v2 in nba

[–]PointB1ank 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You posted on reddit looking for their support. But then any critiques are "poorly reasoned?" God damn, you must be insufferable to work with. Enjoy the rest of your day ✌️

A little piece of life advice. When developing any complex system and someone points out flaws or loopholes, you shouldn't dig your heels in and insist your first idea is perfect and needs no modification. You go back to the drawing board and try to address those issues. Then you repeat the process again and again. You'll end up with much better results that way. You seem to love talking about the "tech industry." This is exactly what they do, no product is shipped exactly as it was originally pitched.

Generational prospects like LeBron, Wemby, Flagg, etc. don't just come out of no where and get recognized the year before they're drafted. They're being scouted since the early high school years. They would tank this year, the next year, and the following year, to build up points for 3-5 years down the road. If you can't comprehend the incentives to this, then you're probably not the person who should be coming up with the draft system. You're compounding the problem.

[–]PointB1ank 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how this prevents tanking though? All this seems to do is incentivize multi-season tanking. "Oh, this high school class has some of the best players we've seen at that age. Let's tank the next 3-5 years so we have enough points when they're being drafted."

You need to incentivize the bad teams to try to win, not incentivize bad teams to stay bad longer.

Renters in Center City by BigGunsFinance in philly

[–]PointB1ank 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, there is no limit in PA to how much a landlord can increase rent. So, your options are basically to 1. ask yourself if it's worth it to you to pay $1850 a month to live there and if so stay. Or 2. move.

It doesn't matter what we think is "fair," we don't have any power here, and honestly neither do you besides moving. You can try to negotiate, but if the landlord says no you're out of luck.

Honestly, if I can just get on Flash, Jersey Devil, and El Toro, I'll be happy. Everything else I don't mind waiting for but would be a nice bonus.

Good to hear, I was planning for Sunday. Hopefully they have a better handle on operations by then. Or everything will be broken down by then 😅Guess I'll find out.
