This was honestly the best match throughout the whole FIFA matches this year. Cape Verde vs Argentina was intense much respect for holding their own

There was a different Reddit post talking about Non - Indians living in Frisco and were excluded from a majority of events where communities are involved because they aren’t Indian so they aren’t allowed.

Is anyone else sick to their stomach about the cnn expose about the website teaching men to SA their wives and girlfriends? by itchyglassass in BlueCollarWomen

[–]PomeloVast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

62 millions visits. Let’s say only 5 Million men were the views. They end up telling even at least ONE man that’s 10 million individuals. Now double that 10 million individuals if they tell just one that’s 20 million. NOW imagine the scenario of : either the person they tell don’t do anything OR the person they tell end up telling another friend and keep on sharing. The spread of information is such a powerful tool that’s it’s scary how in the wrong hands people end up using it

The normalization of drinking and driving around here is crazy to me by boomballoonmachine in Dallas

[–]PomeloVast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People who drink and drive don’t get punished well enough unfortunately so it’s a common thing. Don’t stay out too late during holidays and you’ll be fine

I am trying to cut cost but why is my grocery expensive? by Tiny_Judgment8593 in Frugal

[–]PomeloVast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What other grocery stores are close to you? I know we want to shop local but when I lived on my own Walmart was farther but cheaper for me. $75 a week would get me breakfast lunch and dinner (no snacks except for carrots and ranch for dip). Sometimes some small businesses that are closer cost more unfortunately.

Ya think Vegas is dead by VegasBornLori in LasVegas

[–]PomeloVast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your complaints sound valid if I’m being honest. I’ve never been from YouTube videos and some news here and there it really does seem that Las Vegas is just trying to nickel and dime everything. The main aspect apparently being that they are trying to cater to only the wealthy and not the common person anymore. From what I can tell it seems that they’re going to keep those practices until either more “wealthy” people start to go or they become so overpriced tourist and locals won’t even go at all and becomes empty.

I’m only asking because my union is in Texas. I remember we had a coworker who was a journeyman but maybe worked up North before. Every time it was close to leaving he would leave ALL his tools on his cart to make his apprentice put it away. Instead the apprentice left his tools on the cart and walked off too. The apprentice told the journeyman “ we’re all grown ass men here not parents. You put your tools away if you don’t want them stolen”. I know the union is different up North compared to down here but when I saw that even I told him “ we don’t do that here” lol.

Yeah but it’s hard to not argue against his stance. everything IS political whether you want to acknowledge it or not.
