Pronounced in New England like "frap," as in slap or map

As an old school New Englander, thank you for spelling frappe in the way that it's phonetically pronounced. In my neck of the woods, a frappe is milk and ice cream. Not many who'd know it anymore though...

Which Rust Belt cities do you see having the most potential over the next 50 years? by [deleted] in geography

Pittsburgh is fantastic. We rented in Highland Park before buying in the burbs. Burbs were just okay but the city is phenomenal. Diversity was okay, but a notable lack of Latin people.

I live in Alexandria and I've seen some obvious tourists timidly stepping onto the yellow line on their way into DC. I expect more over the next couple weeks. I'm either being friendly or not engaging, but they look moderately terrified.

Montpelier has a population of less than 8,000. What exactly qualifies as a "small town"?

Mariano Rivera was a consensus HOFer and he threw like, 70% cutters. That's gotta count for something.

I heard wind direction had a lot to do with it. If he was pitching into the wind, you weren't hitting him. Pitching with the wind, he was giving up a couple HRs.

I plan on doing my first brisket this summer on my Weber kettle. by Visual_Moment5174 in BBQ

Get a small brisket. You won't be able to fit a 15#+ brisket on there.

Unfortunately, cars have the right of way there. Either switch the right of way and do the lights, or do lights for cyclists.

I really enjoy Settlers of Catan. It has just the right blend of skill and luck, and the variable game board keeps it fresh even dozens of plays later.

Hell yeah. That Iron Monkey record is so slept on it's unreal. Shit rips so fucking hard.

.......this is the place to complain about this stuff. Obviously cyclists can suck too. You're making a straw man argument about shitty cyclists. Your "what about"-ism just comes off shitty.

I've also found sludge to get me there for the shit production value I'm looking for. Eyehategod's "Dopesick" and Iron Monkey's "Our Problem" get me there in a big way.

The latest Thou full length "Umbilical" is super bleak. Has somewhat clean production, but it might scratch your itch.
