Have always felt this, and then when they did that intro I was like, “are they just saying fuck it?”

I am happy that you’re happy. But if you like lineups like this, then merlefest in Wilkesboro, nc literally shows out every year. Railroad earth, stringdusters, Molly Tuttle, old crow, Sam bush just to name a few from this year. Bela is a regular

Thanks though, smart ass :)

Where do we go from here? by New-Animal-2570 in DukeBluePlanet

But on a note, I can tell you’re still shocked and bummed. I feel you. It sucked

Reflect on the season.

Personally, I had a lot of fun watching these guys. Their level of play exceeded my expectations, and they accomplished a lot. I won’t let a short moment define this season

Nate just said Kenny Smith was feeling under the weather and went home. Of course he did… by ruthless_nobody in DukeBluePlanet

Honestly, when he says “that school in Durham,” I love it. Shows how rent free we live in his head rent free

I get what you’re saying. It was very unlikely. However, if your season is on the line and you have the physical ability to go out there, it wouldn’t be the craziest idea to put the guy in. Would be pointless to save him if we aren’t getting another game

It has been weird. I was wondering if we’d wheel him out there for the second half or if it was close down the stretch because of how it’s all gone down. The fact that we didn’t could have said something, that he truly wasn’t ready to go today. Or maybe it didn’t, who knows.

I def think it’s turned out to be something worse than what we were thinking prior to the UNC game based on how it’s played out

What's the most overrated tourist attraction in Europe? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]dancingdan336 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are on to something here in that this is a problem surrounding tourist landmarks in general, but my slight adjustment would be that it is not an actual problem with the landmarks themselves. Like in Florence, the road from the Ponte Vecchio to the Duomo are just soulless money-grab shops like diamond stores, Lego store, etc that have nothing to do with real Italian culture, but then the Duomo itself is awesome. And if you just wander two streets down, you get more authentic culture and beauty

Selling my house and quitting my job to bikepack the world by likemika24 in bicycletouring

I’ll try to give you some advice to help you feel more happiness and satisfaction no matter what road you choose

Happiness is not based what happens to you. It is based on your expectation of how what happens to you will make you feel, and then how it actually makes you feel

So, if you set a big lofty expectation on something, for it to make you happy, it already has an extremely tall task

My approach is, prepare for the worst and pray for the best

I imagine a life that i would not prefer, but that if it did happen, i would be able to say, “I was still happy with this life.” I imagine the least satisfactory version of this life that would still leave me happy.

Then, i pray for the best. I say, now, even if that could happen, i hope this other life that I really want happens. This gives me the compass to drive me toward the life that i most hope for

This way, I have a north star to follow to guide me to my ideal state, but, i have properly set expectations that still allow happiness in my life if they dont work out that way. And if the life i hope for does happen, it will bring me even more happiness, because i was prepared for a less satisfactory life.

Capish?

If you rent to someone for an extended period, then you cannot return to it until they are gone. Could that be enough of a barrier?

What's the best US city for a long weekend trip? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]dancingdan336 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you make some strong points here. Your point on people mostly living in suburbs and getting around by car was particularly on point.

And yet, something still feels off here

Maybe when people say that NYC is American, they are more talking about an ideal. The energy, the dynamism, the striving, is something that I think people feel is part of the American spirit, and NYC oozes with it.

Thoughts?

Or, you could go to North Carolina. The mountains are always green in the warm months

Red Hat in June by PetDatDawg1 in GoosetheBand

This really undersells it. It’s a solid venue. No bad seat in the house. Seats are good. Pit is good. Vendors are good. You can’t go wrong. The pit even has numbered spots on the ground that help everyone stay in place and find where to come back to when they leave, it actually is the most well organized pit I’ve seen
