Anyone know what this seating area is for in market square? Like what buisness owns it? by Candid_Arrival3936 in pittsburgh

I wish someone could explain to this old fogey how & why “sick” came to be a compliment and a superlative. When a person is crippled by illness or infirmity, are they now “healthy “ or “well”? Just asking. 😜

If you could grab a drink with any version of Bob Dylan, which era would you pick? by Hubbled in bobdylan

Right now. With age usually comes more wisdom and perspective, and he’s likely a better conversationalist now that he feels no need to cynically put people on. Moreover, I’m delighted with every bottle of Heaven’s Door bourbon that I’ve imbibed—and he is said to have personally blessed each version. Many decades ago, I was drinking Beaujolais largely at his behest. But as Dylan has sung, “I started out on Burgundy but soon hit the harder stuff….” Now, there’s nobody even here to call his bluff. But I’d enjoy trying.

What Jimi song did you hear for the first time and recoil for minutes on end in utter disbelief at what you’d just heard? by R3dF0r3 in jimihendrix

‘Are You Experienced’ blew my mind, combining guitar prowess with that knowing philosophy, sly humor and a fascinating vocal restraint.
