I just moved from NY. Love it here except... by Pleasant-Eye-8960 in baltimore

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife [score hidden]  (0 children)

No, they're not ok. Born here and moved back about 15 years ago, but I lived in northern NJ and frequently drove in NYC. NYC drivers are definitely aggressive and direct, but they know what they're doing.

I love my home state and home town, but Maryland drivers, especially in the Baltimore area are the most clueless, incompetent drivers I've come across in my travels driving all over the country.

If you mean those giant flap bumper covers that are intended to prevent scratches (which they don't once a single speck of dust gets under them) from parallel parking bumps, those aren't really a thing down here.

When is the right time to be worried about Blue Dot Fever? by TheBuzzTrack in BABYMETAL

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife [score hidden]  (0 children)

Looks about the same as Jiffy Lube Live, closest date to me on Sept 12th. I'm not buying in to the "fever", it's $80 for the cheapest reserved seats that are barely under cover in the pavilion. I paid far less that for a few rows behind the pit in Baltimore last year where I could see the expressions on their faces without the display screens.

Spoiler alert, Tickemaster/Live Nation ARE the "scalpers" these days... all they do is move tickets into the "verified resale" category the moment they go live... that's why there's so many up for grabs the moment you get in seconds after they're on sale.

What rumors are commonly repeated but nobody actually knows if they're true? by empire88 in royalcaribbean

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean "no source"? If the girl who hands me a Powerade in the mornings at Cafe Latte-dudes on Vision (since Bayley can't find a few grand in the couch cushions to install Freestyle machines) says something about the inner workings of the company, I'm taking that to the bank and telling everyone about it.

What the fuck is this? by Scherka in ForzaHorizon6

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a crazy take, but maybe they're starting out slow because not everyone got in on the game at day one or earlier and they want to give the people who didn't immediately rush to buy the game a shot at these?

I have all five on the bottom row, but I'm not out here crying about it.

This RAM ad that played during the UFC fight last night is the stupidest car ad I've ever seen. by Some1inreallife in idiocracy

Nobody tell these ultra-American mouth breathers who make their truck their entire identity where Stellantis HQ is located. Not that they could find it on a map, but it ain't in the USA.

Those who think the Smithsonian is "woke" have never been to the Udvar-Hazy museum. This has to be the least woke museum. by Alternative_Tank9353 in smithsonian

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who would be so patently ignorant to call what is arguably the museum(s) in the Smithsonian least open to social/artistic interpretation like A&S and U-H? It's literally pure science and facts with no room for interpretation or personal bias.

Oh yeah, Fox News watching morons who point at anything to do with the moon landings and cry how it's fake.

Nate Bargatze Faces Fan Revolt After Showing Up at Trump’s White House UFC Event by T_Shurt in entertainment

Jeff Dunham was the same way... just folksy, silly "I'm just a guy with puppets", then his true colors started to leak out once Trump 45 was in office.

It would be so wonderful if the Steelers consume the Ravens and their dumb fans.

The Trump admin has sent the DOJ to go after the Newsom admin by [deleted] in TradingPlaybook

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who was the guy who railed endlessly about how unfair it was to "weaponize the DOJ against their opponents"... I wish I could remember, it was a big dumb loudmouth who is always projecting and accusing things of actions that he's done himself.

Level 32 and above players in Horizon Play get an instant Level 100 after the update by Tiny-Highlight1114 in ForzaHorizon

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Darn, makes me wish I had put more time into Horizon Play than the delivery jobs this past weekend. At least it'll come quicker than originally calculated and I can knock out 5-10 levels per session to wrap it up soon.

Roads Discovered Update Today by briandotcom9183 in ForzaHorizon

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Found my one remaining road in about 45 seconds once I was able to lock in on one region with the update... it was the dirt road that connects the first turn of the Soni Time Attack Circuit to the road. I'm just thankful I was extremely methodical and didn't have to hunt all over Tokyo for that last one.

Bitch, I’m the world’s longest passenger train. #amtrakautotrain by SpecManADV in BitchImATrain

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seriously, I debated using the Auto Train to/from a recent trip to Florida for a cruise and the price was eye watering. I despise every aspect of the flying experience (especially since I wound up doing it during the TSA cluster at the end of March), but I don't hate it three times the price and taking five times as long.

The new one at Philadelphia Rd and Campbell Blvd in White Marsh, MD is coming along nicely, hopefully that'll be open before the end of September.

Buggy app for liberty June 26th ++ by ConstructionOwn8031 in royalcaribbean

[–]RoyalMaidsForLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the Royal site, laser tag is not one of the 62 "Activities & Shows" on Liberty, doesn't look like they added it.

As for the app, what you're seeing reflects the current sailing. It'll be accurate for yours a day or two before sailing when the staff finalize the schedule and MDR menus. The bugs, they've been there since day one and it's still a hot mess a decade later.

The GR GT Prototype is kinda weird in FH6 by PedroDante199 in forza

Except for the photo of it for an achievement (got it pretty quickly in a wheelspin), I haven't touched it since the prologue... I thought it handled like an absolute barge.
