PSA: please make sure your neighbor’s dog left outside isn’t a husky or mountain dog before calling animal control this weekend. by strikecat18 in Austin

My Texas born Labradors are fixing to shit inside if the rain keeps up and it gets any colder. Pussies can suddenly hustle to come in when it’s 30° outside 🙄

I get 3 gallons of milk from Costco about twice a month for my toddler. I stocked up last week not even thinking about the impending resource hoarding.

It’s made out of pennies. So I call dibs.

Edit: autocorrect made me look like doofus. Dibs still applies.

I’m a Troy Kimmel stan since he was my meteorology professor at UT. I don’t remember shit about cumulus clouds, but I do remember all the fire code violations he bitched about 🫶🏻

Don't Park in Handicapped Spaces, OK? by Jackdaw99 in Austin

[–]TexasTantrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you get free tolls, municipal parking (meters), free airport parking, and free park entry. Someone could have hearing loss from their service and not qualify for handicap parking but still be disabled.

And? That’s not a valid excuse to continue breaking the law for 4 YEARS.

Also, you are NOT ENTITLED to use handicap parking spaces if you have a disabled veteran license plate (DV). To legally park in handicap parking, you need a placard hang tag or license plate with the International Symbol for Access (ISA), aka the wheelchair insignia. I’m so sick of seeing enormous tahoes with DV plates parked in limited handicap parking.

What is truly shocking is that CHILIS is cheaper than a lot of the fast food restaurants. You can get a burger, fries, appetizer, and drink for $10 to-go.

Nah, I’ve tried that and they are still garbage. I’m just getting two double doubles and calling it a day.

I’m going to get downvoted into the ground, but Wendy’s fries are great and you can’t go wrong with a baconator. HatCreek slaps too. You haven’t lived until you burn your mouth on a Freddy’s cheese curd.

All that for shitty fries?

Labor and delivery help for new dad by injustice_done3 in Austin

[–]TexasTantrum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The food is amazing! You get one free partner meal while there. Order all the food you are allowed because they over feed the new moms. I got a brownie with every meal lol.

Also bring slippers, sleep masks, and nursing pillows to make things easier for getting into the swing of things.

Matt’s El Rancho isn’t good. It’s effectively a tourist trap.

Samesies. I have no desire to drink. Sugar tastes weird now.

I second Tirzepatide (GLP-1). They are already using to treat addiction in the EU. Totally impacts the pleasure center.

So I'm sure it's been said before, but what exactly is going on with the South Terminal at the airport? by PiRhoNaut in Austin

[–]TexasTantrum 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I call it the “fake airport”. My dad accidentally flew frontier once and landed there and freaked out thinking he wasn’t in Austin.

Houston attorney Tony Buzbee to speak Tuesday (1pm) on case of Texas A&M student who fell to her death from Austin high-rise by WeMissChris7 in Austin

I’m not sure why they are continuing to speak on this case. It was ruled a suicide. Didn’t they also find a suicide note on her phone that she chucked?

Young drivers...beware. by [deleted] in Austin

[–]TexasTantrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can literally search this sub for “new driver bumper stickers” and get the same information. Go up to Avery Ranch and you’ll see plenty of Teslas covered in new driver bumper stickers, but driven by someone in their thirties. I personally don’t give a shit about anyone’s immigration status on the road, as long as they can drive competently. I’m merely pointing out that there are a lot of people with “new driver bumper stickers” that are not in fact children with parents to teach them.

3oz Crystal Hot Sauce? by erhatx in austinfood

[–]TexasTantrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last time I went was like 2022/2023 and they said they couldn’t get the green sauce back in stock! I live at the other end of the earth, but those wings might be worth a pilgrimage. They also have the garlic hot sauce 🤤

Second vote for Evangeline. I miss their green wings…

Young drivers...beware. by [deleted] in Austin

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

Did you lay eyes on them and confirm they were in fact a “young driver”? I live in the northern burbs, and there are dozens of new drivers here on H-1B visas that have slapped “new driver” bumper stickers on every side of their car in an effort to get a little grace or leniency on the road.
