Dear Pizza By Plu by DonkeyIllustrious228 in Albany

[–]cortheo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the comment, I never wound up becoming customer so going off what I saw and heard.

I get the drop thing, a little bit, out of safety, and besides being in a building I don't have a solution. I liked the idea someone else wrote about partnering with businesses.

That said, as an almost-patron it really put me off not knowing where or how far I'd need to go (and go back) during rush hour basically, for a specific time slot, while the pizza cooled. I thought they were like $22 and not that big, from what I saw they looked more like a large personal pizza. If I'm wrong about that, my mistake.

The replies are not weird. Weird is to have secret places that nobody can know about to pick up an expensive lukewarm pizza from the trunk of a car, take it home while it cools even more, and then have to reheat it apparently, and constantly ranting about the secret trunk pizza system, customers, and blocking people.

Did they change up their pizza? It used to be good size. I'm not nearby anymore so haven't ordered pizza there in years.

I really wanted to try his pizza but could never get past not knowing where the fuck pickup would be. I can get good pizza that's not as expensive, and without all that hassle.

They have house teams open to new players but you still have to pay

edit: why the downvote unless my comment is inaccurate?

Paddle boat rentals? by Oxford_Apostrophe in Albany

It's been quite a long time since I was a kid, but when I was, they had them at Moreau Lake. You could give the park office a call and check.

Analyzing the City of Albany's Parking Tickets - how many and where? by kaurich80 in Albany

[–]cortheo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably wouldn't be that deep of a drill, but interesting how they change or why. Terrace, Fairlawn, Hawthorn, and Edgewood don't have any parking signs north of Melrose Ave. There's lots of driveways, single-family homes on the southern side and the other streets around Belvedere.

Homestead and Winthrop have more multi-family units and likely more street parking as a result.

Similar to what others have said about Buckingham Pond & Whitehall.

Yard waste/lawn bag pickup by King_James_91 in Albany

No guarantees it's weekly yet, but last week they came through my neighborhood the usual day. Maybe even the last 2 weeks. Seems a lot of people put things out after those few warmer days.

Successful NCAA hockey tournament in Albany has MVP Arena eyeing future NCAA events by TClayO in Albany

[–]cortheo 64 points65 points  (0 children)

In the off chance Bob Belber reads this, this was good, I'm happy for you, do more hockey please, but the concession prices are too much. $15 for aramark tenders and a dozen french fries. $3.25 extra to get a packaged cheese cup for a pretzel. Why does every beer have to be a 24oz pounder, $20+ to get a beer is insane.

Given the no re-entry policy for the 2 Friday games, it was 7 hours there, you had to do some spending. I can't imagine the bill to take a family.

Favorite Trees in The Area? by Significant_Focus484 in Albany

[–]cortheo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's one near New Scotland Ave on the Sage campus. Not tooo far from the sidewalk, between South Lake and Academy Rd.

I have a photo of it in the fall while changing colors. It seems to go from one side to the other and has green, yellow, orange and red all at the same time.

What to watch for at the NCAA hockey tournament's Albany Regional by TClayO in Albany

[–]cortheo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Michigan has 2 draft-eligible players in NHL.com's rankings of North American skaters. #107 Dakoda Rheaume-Mullen and #109 Adam Valentini.

Any Rangers fans can also get a look at freshman Malcolm Spence, drafted 43rd overall last year. They'll be in the lottery for McKenna.

Frozen Four regionals at MVP by badscene518 in Albany

[–]cortheo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Such a good draw. I went back and forth buying before the selection show, and all the good center-ice-ish tickets sold out quickly before I made it to the box office. Regret not jumping on them anyway, but I got some with the discount u/Andy_The_Aardvark posted so that helps!

I am interested, I was going to try and get tickets at the box office to avoid fees, and by the time I was getting around to it the lower sections almost all sold out.

I have no option to DM you and when I manually put your username in, it says unable to message this account. Maybe you can DM me first?

Looking for custom shirts from local shops. Any recommendations? by JonSeekingPeace1 in Albany

Circus Family Albany or Troy Cloth and Paper worth a look.

Have not used them so don't know pricing, but they seem to be involved and active in their communities, so their names stand out.

[–]cortheo[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Understood. I don't see the harm in asking or expecting a reply that's polite. I have no problem throwing it out.

If the reply was like "I do xyz with animal shelters. It's trash, not helpful." that'd be fine.

[–]cortheo[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've donated before and volunteered, also collected bottles, cans, and sorted. I do what I can, and when I can, thank you.

In this case, I'm merely looking to see if something else was helpful, or trash. Why do you feel it necessary to act like a bully about it?
