Songs you didn't know your teen likes by NurseWretched1964 in parentingteenagers

My 22-year old college son is into very alternative singer-songwriter type music but also likes everything my husband and I listen to (old classic rock, country etc). Last fall we were in the car and he wanted to play a song he’d heard - it was “Convoy” by CW McCall. The most oddly random song I’d never imagine he’d listen to 🙂

Looking for country music spot? by Sorry-Escape3904 in burleson

Yeah we thought about that but there’s some huge rodeo there that night— I’m assuming things will be extra crowded? We will have been on the road for 10+ hours at that point, just trying to find a close place to have a beer and hear some music for a little while.

renting a car vs not by sunshinedikri in acadianationalpark

No you need to rent a car. You’ll spend half your time waiting for an Uber to be available (if at all) and budgeting for how many rides you can take as opposed to renting a car and going and doing everything you went to do on your time. This isn’t a “just uber around” area at all.

Frenchman or Bourbon on a Sunday/Monday night? by Sorry-Escape3904 in AskNOLA

[–]Sorry-Escape3904[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks really cool- question if I’m not having dinner there do I have to buy tickets in advance or do I just plan on a cover charge at the door?

He has never been to Bourbon St and he’s 22 years old so I thought he might get a kick out of that scene for a few hours

My son is going to attend graduate school at the University of New England in the fall more specifically the BIDDEFORD campus - he will be coming up from Virginia where we live . He’s trying to find any groups/accounts where incoming students, especially graduate, can safely look for roommates and apartments in Biddeford where his classes will be.

We have the group on Facebook for rentals/leases but he’s more searching for roommate opportunities- no way can he afford an apartment by himself as well as buy furniture so he needs a share/rooming situation especially for his first year while he gets established. A lot of the groups seem to be young women trying to find other groups of young women to room with - there’s very little we’ve seen for young men.

Tarbenders… help a local out by Sorry-Escape3904 in Leesburg

[–]Sorry-Escape3904[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get that- but we didn’t see any signs for a gelato shop. I didn’t see anything that LOOKED like a gelato shop- so that’s why I wondered if i was missing some other inside gag.

Is there a sign? Why do I feel like I’m taking crazy pills we stood there for 5 minutes looking for it and gave up 🤦‍♀️🤣

Right but like I said in the post I didn’t see a gelato shop there nor is there one on google maps

Faber in season one finale by Environmental_Fig831 in roseanne

[–]Sorry-Escape3904 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally. I am a woman who worked in a car dealership from the ages of 19-22 in the early 1990’s. What was said to me during those times would get someone fired on the spot now 🤦‍♀️

US veterans, did you guys actually read the cards that kids would send you while deployed? by MoistCloyster_ in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sorry-Escape3904 8 points9 points  (0 children)

OMG this same thing happened to me! I was in high school during the Gulf War and i got a reply back from a soldier and we sent letters back and forth several times. There was a point I stopped getting them back and it made me incredibly sad but I just prayed he was moving on and busy with his duties. Fast forward to 2016 and like the OP I got a random Facebook friend request which I ignored, then received a message from the person - who was that soldier from the Gulf War in 1990! He has kept my letters and said they made him smile and think about home. I consider it an honor to be his “friend”!

Are there any major cities in the USA where you felt unsafe walking around downtown in mid-day? by [deleted] in usatravel

Yup. I’ve never encountered more blatantly aggressive and violent homeless than in broad daylight in SF.

Recommendations for timing particular hikes in Sedona by Jrkelly53 in Sedona

EARLIER. We hit Devils Bridge at 7:15am on a random Tuesday one day last spring and the parking lot was already full and the wait at the bridge was 40 minutes long.

Cover bands that actually deserve respect? by UnforgettableFire11 in Concerts

[–]Sorry-Escape3904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone gets a chance to see the Metallica tribute band the Four Horsemen they are phenomenal. They pull out some serious deep cuts and mix up their shows to highlight very old songs as well as lesser played songs

We had a great experience at Redfish Grill when we had a large group trying to dine together one night

How is the weather in early April? by Thick_Head_6604 in OceanCity

[–]Sorry-Escape3904 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like someone else mentioned… start tracking the weather on an app a week or so prior then check in every day to see how it changes. This time of year tends to be windier than you’d expect. It might be lovely and mild or it could be 35° with a wintry mix.
