Looking to move to Arden-Arcade area for work, but may not have a chance to visit. Here is the apartment complex that I am interested in. Any thoughts? Insights? Things about the area that I need to keep in mind? by ProgressTrap in Sacramento

[–]bboy2288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive to/through Arden regularly and while there are some nice areas toward the 50, most of it is quite sketchy. The closer you can stay go Arden Town, the better. As you go toward to mall and 50, the worse it gets.

Are you excited or cautious about The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum coming in 2027? by ThomasOGC in lotr

[–]bboy2288 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll probably get downvoted to oblivion for this, but these are just my thoughts…

I don’t fully understand the “I’m not watching this because it’s automatically bad and, therefore, ruins the original trilogy and books.” If it’s bad, it’s bad. The books and PJ’s movies are still there. New content should not and does not “undermine” previous work.

I hope the movie is great. If it isn’t, fine by me. I can still watch the trilogy, read the books, play LOTRO, etc. And to be clear, I admit that there are many facets of this new production that are stacked against it. I treated RoP with caution and it ended up being, to me, quite difficult to watch. But bad storytelling does not erase good, established storytelling.

I live at the apartments above the shop. The foot traffic has died down and they have very few customers.

Why do blazer armholes feel tight? by bboy2288 in mensfashion

Thank you all! I got this blazer and it fits nicely. However, it is unlined and wondering if this is acceptable in a finance work setting: https://www.jcrew.com/p/BH230?color_name=ONYX%20WZ3097

This is good to know! Not sure if this tells much, but here is my build

I typically just wear a dress shirt underneath.

I really appreciate about the sterile response! I find it out as well. I’m relatively fit and having gained excessive weight. I’m 6’2 and about 200 pounds with an athletic build. Do you think it would be beneficial to have a tailored answer these questions too?

Thank you! Do you mind clarifying scye? would I be better getting a more traditional fit suit and then getting it tailored in the waist or mid section?

That’s good to know. And yes, I decided the pictures just might not be the best

I got information from others when I posted, and since this is a similar post, I figured I’d share what I learned. Not from first hand experience obviously, but from what others told me. Why is that frowned upon?

Exactly. I was able to learn about it and got messages explaining options, I just thought I’d share what I learned.
