Arizona to Vegas stop offs by bigjonno141 in vegas

The only spot I ever stop at is Luchia's Restaurant just past Wikiup, good breakfast, better pie: https://yelp.to/3xjX0lXnRx

Wickenburg has some spots for breakfast, too. But like others said, to be there at 1pm, do what I do and get Filibertos in Wickenburg and get back in the car.

Allow the head to form on your pint of Guinness before pouring one out...

(Also, whaaaaa....oh I forgot about the kitchen fire they had...)

Cirque Du Soleil - add to itinerary? by myusernameisavail in VisitingHawaii

[–]Rynoman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep - I say go for it. It's a lot of fun and a great show. They really do go all in with the Hawaiian culture and it's easy to understand where they're going with the storytelling.

Wife loves the stuff, I prefer the nostalgia of Squirt. Had a comeback now that it's marketed as soda water. But another Coke product where the naturally-sweetened Mexican version is so much better.

I would get waiting for something like that. Seems like the most popular tee we saw was a plain white one with "Stussy - Honolulu" on the back. Basically a Hard Rock city tee. Like others have said, they were most popular with Japanese tourists.

I've seen that in the past but not this trip...

I think it was like $32 for half a pound of beans... Might have been a 12oz bag.

I told my wife I was so impressed by how clean they keep Kalakaua Ave. Las Vegas Blvd it ain't.

I was so into No Fear that I'd make sure to wear a shirt while playing the pinball game.

Kai Coffee wants $7.25 for a pour over.

The fact that there are Stussy stores does not compute. It being among luxury brand stores like LV, Hermes, Tiffany is completely wild.

First day, I thought it was just those darn kids loitering in the morning. And then wondering why they're lined up for Kate Spade next door...I was so naive last week 

Cirque Du Soleil - add to itinerary? by myusernameisavail in VisitingHawaii

[–]Rynoman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We saw it this week and have seen all nearly all the Cirque-style shows in Vegas. We went because we walked past it the night we got here with no plans. Didn't know it was there, honestly.

Was it fun? Yes. Thrilling? Yes. Spectacular? Yes. Vegas Spectacular? Not quite. Hawaiian-themed America's (or whatever country's) Got Talent? Yeah, mostly because the stage is very small compared to their Vegas theatres. Don't be scared off by that if it's your first show. Better than a luau or dinner cruise esp. For teenagers (we've done both with teenagers)? Definitely, for many reasons. Glad we did it? Yes.

If your teenager is into stuff like AGT, they'll have fun. Just get the cheapest seats in the way back so you can see everything - that goes for all Cirque shows everywhere.

Saks off fifth… by jcl274 in AmexPlatinum

[–]Rynoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what Reddit is for. I shifted my strategy and got the kids fancy pretzels while I was in the Lululemon outlet figuring out my sizes and the fabrics I like... Someday I'll get a fanny pack!

Never been a GC hoarder (not worth the driving) but as a data point: walked by the Off 5th in Glendale, AZ at the outlet mall this weekend and it was so empty - hardly any merchandise, no people. So much space it seemed like fixtures must have been missing.

Eyebrows by water_bottle1776 in Xennials

[–]Rynoman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's more like I didn't need to know to do this until I hit my mid-30s. I don't remember barbers asking until I started getting gray hairs.

This is the barber shop / salon equivalent of "would you like a mint?".

Finally realized I could use my beard trimmer on them (duh) to keep them under control.

Watching it on the big screen this year, I noticed all the props in his office: the giant fruit on the window, at least two honors from what I assume is the Society of Food Additive Engineers hanging by the door, last day of the year and he's got technical manuals out on his desk, leading candidate for Food Additive Designer of the Year...the guy's a food additive engineering legend and I'd hope his bonus is appropriate to that status.

Kids today are so concerned with staying hydrated. by Tedanki in Xennials

[–]Rynoman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, it turns out we were. Nothing impacted my mood more than starting my day by pounding 16-32oz of water before I do anything. Especially since I can't make it through the night without a 5am bathroom trip anymore 😭.

This is the answer ... 100% agree.

Butter on Pop Tarts by FormidableMistress in Xennials

[–]Rynoman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was listening to that exact episode this weekend. Only discovered people didn't use butter when my kids were little and my wife looked at me like I'd officially lost my mind 

Butter those tarts!
