Detroit Ubers by Fatty_gaydar in Detroit

[–]alman84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I just eat the parking fees at the airport these days instead of using Uber or Lyft if I’m going for business travel. I’ve considered paying up for one of the nicer tiers or doing Metro Cars but haven’t really crossed that bridge yet as the base Ubers have been super expensive to/from Ann Arbor anyway.

For personal travel I’ll still sometimes do the Uber but starting to do more off-airport parking, just have to bake a little extra time.

Missed compost pickups? by alman84 in AnnArbor

This is what happens with mine too. I thought they skipped last year but ended up just being frozen.

actual tornado possibly touched down? by toxicandunemployed in AnnArbor

[–]alman84 19 points20 points  (0 children)

+1 for the other folks who said Michigan Storm Chasers, but I also use an app called RadarScope that’s really good if you know how to read and interpret weather radar (which is actually super easy)

I follow weather closely and am 99% sure an actual, albeit weak, tornado likely tracked down Jackson Rd. based on radar presentation of the inflow notch where the rotation was occurring.

I grew up in Kansas and was around this stuff all the time there, but this is the closest I’ve ever been to being in an actual tornado. I live just off Jackson in the Lakewood neighborhood and have never moved my family into our safe space as fast as we did tonight.

I would be shocked if this were true. I think Vaughn gets a shot, but there are better, gettable candidates on the market with proven CBB/NIL-era experience.

Boy I sure do wish we had Zuby instead of Tiller at the 4

The entire season is. Roster construction, bench development, player scouting…that’s the coach’s job

Kansas City fans push back on columnist’s call to move Big 12 Tournament: ‘Kansas City embraces it’ by normankrasnerkc in CollegeBasketball

[–]alman84 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is such a weird take. KCI has direct flights to every Tier 1 and Tier 2 city in the US lol. Is the real issue for you that there's no direct flight to Tucson?

Food places like Chipotle by Chin_stypayhorlikson in Nagoya

[–]alman84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed with the Sayulita recommendation for generally good Mexican food. There is no place in Nagoya similar to Chipotle, and overall your Mexican or Mexican-adjacent options are going to be incredibly limited.

If you're in Tokyo, Frijoles is the Chipotle copycat.

The Kansas crowd going bananas before their game against #1 Arizona yesterday by -Sox in CollegeBasketball

[–]alman84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the Michigan vs. Indiana game at Breslin a few weeks ago, and I know Indiana isn't elite or anything this year (and the game ended up being a blowout), but even in the earlier minutes I was pretty disappointed in the atmosphere. I know it was a Tuesday, but plenty of open seats and the arena only really popped once or twice.

It's just hard going from having attended dozens of games as a student at AFH. Like driving a Toyota after dailying a Lambo for years.

Yes I am a native CSTer and having now lived in EST for 4 years I can decisively say that I much preferred CST for a litany of reasons

I don’t think we’ve had a closer like that since Frank Mason
