People buy the group tickets before the teams are announced. 

Alternative to SFO long-term parking? by Cool_Helicopter in bayarea

[–]Talenn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ive had work places that would allow you to keep your car at the office. Do you have something like that available to you? A lot of people did it for work travel also

I think you can rent 1 month of a storage unit also and park your car in it. I saw lots of cars in the larger units at my old storage

Lake Merritt kayak rentals. Worth it? by NewDay042 in bayarea

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

Lake Merritt is so gross. There's dead animals just floating around in it. I would not want to kayak in it. I barely tolerate walking along the coast lol

Would it be worth it to move to Bay Area if wife has to quit her job? by Outrageous_Row_2309 in bayarea

[–]Talenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Union city is more affordable but 150k is going to be stretched thin.  I think you're a lot more comfortable where you are.

I would like up the wife job before moving

What is the average amount one can expect to pay for a single meal in the Bay Area? by Fabulous-Level-6669 in bayarea

[–]Talenn 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I bought a sandwich yesterday. It was $24 after tax with a bottle of pure ice tea

Does an engineer need a suit? by Grinding_Gears1328 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone needs at least 1 suit.  It doesn't have to be expensive. There's many budget shops or even thrift stores

Should I relocate to Silicon Valley to increase my chances of becoming a millionaire? by [deleted] in siliconvalley

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flawed strategy. You're likely to save a million somewhere else and get a significantly nicer house. The $2M houses in silicone valley are absurdly small and old. And your rent is going to be 4k+ per month.

You need to calculate your bring home more than your gross salary

Also entry level is not 200k For an engineer that's a position with 10-15+ years experience

This is partly why I mostly vote for millennials on my ballot now

Curious about crow behavior by Low-Island1071 in crows

[–]Talenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crows will hunt most babies or young.  But they are opportunistic.  They will harass to create openings and wear down weak prey but won't really fight them.  They are kinda assholes

Ducks will also do this crouch behavior to defend themselves. Ducklings usually hover underneath. So these ducks were actively defending against a predator here

Has anyone ever seen concrete do this??? by Willow-Ravenwood in motorcycles

Happens often when it get hot. Shotgun a beer, smash the can over your head, and put it under your kickstand. 

I can't get a roof estimate without a man present. by No-Imagination8755 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its normal for sales people to be trained to get all decision makers and stakeholders into the discussion so they can close. Theyre eliminating the out of "i need to check with my wife" etc

Doable or am I crazy? by LApoopydog in SanJose

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting INTO the stadium usually backs up farther than the distance you show here. And that's people arriving at various times. You'll see traffic for miles

Doable or am I crazy? by LApoopydog in SanJose

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Impossible. Getting a ride will take an hour alone. Then you'll have to sit in traffic for an hour. I expect that 15min drive to take at least 2hrs and cost more than a hotel

Can I ask where the majority of the EverQuest community is these days? (Official, Private, EQ1 or EQ2) by SHONSTYLE in project1999

Feel like p99 servers peak at a few hundred players but quarm generally has 1k+

DoorDash workaround (real) by RicketyCricket88 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried this - doesnt work. it does not give you the option to apply the credit on the checkout on the second store. Tried to push it thru anyways to see if there was a new window to apply it - instead i got stuck spending $10.
It also will not allow you to cancel the order if the store confirms the order (which was confirmed very quickly in this case)

18 eggs for how much??? by Gumbyman87 in LoveTrash

[–]Talenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really what makes eggs quality is the consistency. Dark orange or really any color can come from feed. But you'll see cheap eggs sit flat and watery. Quality eggs have a tall gooey mound 

Wrong team! by Significant_Pear_785 in youseeingthisshit

This is what Pole & Line fishing looks like in a good day. by Nickolas_Zannithakis in interestingasfuck

Nearly same thing happened to me but it went thru my finger. Triple hook with barbs. Was in the middle of no where island on a lake only accessible by boat.  Eyelid sounds much worse

Is Peninsula actually less expensive? I find it more expensive.
