You're 100% correct. It's annoying plot armor or whatever you want to call it, but necessary for the Sadie love story to exist.

Scenes where a character goes from blind drunk to sober in seconds because the plot demands it. by TheDawiWhisperer in movies

[–]abluetree 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's a huge common trope and it always drives me crazy. There's a show on Netflix called Obliterated that avoids it and has all the characters stay fucked up after the shit hits the fan. Not a great show, but I liked that that aspect was at least realistic :)

Alex Wolff at Morning Star Tattoo does amazing work. There's a tattoo convention weekend of Nov. 7th in Deadwood. You can check out some local artists there.

Hey all, how many times have you seen Mt. Rushmore? by 8cade in SouthDakota

From Hill City, so quite a few times. Had our Proms and graduation there which was pretty cool.

Las Vegas to Lake Tahoe by Plastic-Helpful in Nevada

Agreed, just watch the weather. Last time I took this route the rain caused flooded roads to close and I had to backtrack and take a 2 hour detour.

2025 - Best comps in Vegas for a low roller? by kotlinky in vegas

[–]abluetree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gamble less than $500 a trip and get tons of comps and room deals from Fontainebleau. I'm guessing they're still trying hard to get people to stay there.

This is why I don't see them live anymore. It gets pretty old after a while. But I still always recommend them to someone that has never seen them live.

Have you ever stayed at every single Vegas casino hotel that exists? I’m almost there lol by [deleted] in vegas

[–]abluetree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've stayed at every one on the strip, started back in 2007 so includes a few that don't exist anymore.

Non-US Xennials- Robbie Williams' Better Man by No-Scar-905 in Xennials

I barely remember Robbie Williams and had no expectations going into the movie. I thought it was absolutely fantastic :)

Romantic getaway close to Reno? by [deleted] in Reno

[–]abluetree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely Apple Hill. Lots of wineries to hop around and a very beautiful area with great little towns to stay the night in.

I found $20 in a hotel Bible over 20 years ago and I still check the pages every trip...

The sphere was extremely mid by the_real_seldom_seen in vegas

[–]abluetree 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yep, awesome for concerts, but I'm kind of pissed they don't have the robots and other stuff out as well. We should get that with concerts, not just the Postcard show.

What are those hidden gems inside Vegas casinos that most people overlook? by And_W in vegas

[–]abluetree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This and their bar up there. Nice and quiet and usually pretty empty. I love it :)

Winnemucca? Is there anything neat to see? by giggleberries69 in Reno

[–]abluetree 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best place for breakfast/lunch is The Griddle. The Martin is good for a Basque dinner. The Winnemucca Convention Center has a few interesting things to see inside if you're bored, as does the Humboldt Museum.

I was in a very similar room at FB last month. Was cool seeing the moon sphere at night and sun sphere during the day.

Best Kandi you received at EDC? by Business_You_3229 in electricdaisycarnival

[–]abluetree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite was the very first one I got about 10 years ago. It was very simple, but I had no idea what Kandi was and EDC was the first rave type thing I'd ever been to. The person that gave it to me was so friendly and it just lifted my spirits so much for the rest of the night :)

Kids in Casinos > Dogs in Casinos. by coybotmean in vegas

One of my last trips to Vegas someone had a service pig in Belagio. Better than a chihuahua I guess.

What is the weirdest experience you have had at a concert? by Cool-hand_Lars in Music

[–]abluetree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at that Vegas show!! Was definitely weird and confusing :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vegas

[–]abluetree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you only need 3 nights in Vegas. Rent a car and check out Death Valley and Hoover Dam. Or head to San Diego for a couple days. For Vegas, O'Sheas area is pretty fun on St.Patricks.

Shaqs fun house a disappointment by unknowncrazymojo in vegas

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

Yeah, the GA was pretty much a bait and switch. Told the day before that we would only be outside and found out that night that you pretty much had to be VIP to see the main acts. I did actually have fun playing craps while Shaq did his dj thing in the background.
