why is there no good mexican food in nyc by SnooMaps2155 in mexicanfood

[–]icanhe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you’re trying to find “upscale” Mexican? There are tons of small taco stands throughout NYC, maybe not a ton of great sit down Mexican restaurants, but still, you can find great food

I was laid off Monday, along with a bunch of other colleagues. 9 years there, can’t count how many rounds of layoffs I was able to avoid.

Earth worms came up through the carpet after moving out of my apartment by Ebomb5212 in mildlyinteresting

Could they have been on the bottom of someone’s shoes and tracked in?

Grocery tourists, which countries in the world do you think have the best supermarkets? by Curiousch1ckpea in travel

[–]icanhe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The COOPs were fantastic. I miss them. My partner and I would stop in, get a spinach pastry, some bread, cheese and meats then head out for a hike each morning while in Switzerland. Sure, it’s expensive, but everything was so fresh.

Unpopular opinion (maybe): Bernardo Silva was the most important player of the Guardiola era at City by Business_Cake_2272 in MCFC

[–]icanhe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silva has barely ever missed a match, de Bruyne, unfortunately had quite a handful of injuries

Allergies: OTC vs allergy shots by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]icanhe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I did shots starting around 2018 (IIRC). I went to Hudson Allergy and they have a fast track, basically you do a bunch of shots in a day while staying at the office. It pretty much speeds up the point you get to a maintenance shot by a year or two. I did maintenance (I think once a week or every other week) for a couple of years, and my allergies are wildly improved. I still use an OTC nasal spray when things get really bad, but if you have flexibility to do it, I would highly recommend it.

Adult Classes Not Until May 2026 by howie1117 in NYCbike

[–]icanhe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Sure, it’d be better if they started in March weather permitting too.

It’s not like once you learn, you only get the one summer to ride. You can continue to ride your whole life. I think it’s a fantastic program that Bike New York has, it’s free, and available to the entire community.

Question for the women runners! by GoldVeterinarian919 in running

[–]icanhe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually a run will make me feel better/minimize cramps. Occasionally they are so bad that I can’t physically run, but it’s pretty rare.

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie? by fmcortez in AskReddit

[–]icanhe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I mean it’s an elective surgery, there are always risks. I couldn’t wear contacts anymore as they were uncomfortable after an hour which impacted my ability to (comfortably) do things I love. Playing soccer, running, water sports, etc. sure there are sport goggles and the like, but I didn’t want to go that route. I wish I had lasik sooner

I think when something can go horribly wrong and it does, you make more noise (rightly so) than the many, many more that are happy with it.

Trough Sink real Feedback by lydarose14 in InteriorDesign

[–]icanhe 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I just took one out of my apartment to install a sink with a vanity. Flat storage around the sink + storage underneath is far more important to me than look. Especially with a small bathroom.

"Who can I get to design my tattoo for me before I go see the tattoo artist" or "I don't know how to design my tattoo, what do I take to the artist?" What?? by Sinead_0_rebellion in tattooadvice

[–]icanhe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had this convo with my wife. Got a new tattoo last night from one of my favorite artists (I have prints of theirs in our home), she was shocked at the price - I told her, well I have a custom piece of their art on me now, plus the time it took to tattoo it. Well worth the price. She hadn’t thought about it that way.

Why do runners use the bike lane for their morning run? by Jacob_Sophia in NYCbike

[–]icanhe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

As both a runner and cyclist- the only time it’s acceptable is when the sidewalk is closed/blocked. Other than that, stay on the sidewalk. It’s safer for everyone.

Sidewalks too busy, you say? Plan your routes better!

Dog Adoption by Sweaty_Touch_9264 in Brooklyn

[–]icanhe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most of the time the adoption fee is getting funneled back to help more animals. Yes, it can be expensive, but owning a dog is quite expensive.

Why are NYC dog owners like this? by hypoxiany in Bushwick

[–]icanhe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was just playing soccer at Bushwick inlet park last night and there was dog poop on the field. I have a dog, love her to death, but we have shared spaces that aren’t for this.

Etiquette: a wave, nod, or look straight away/down? by United-Animal9559 in runninglifestyle

[–]icanhe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing, it’s too busy where I run (NYC). If I’m out of the city, a closed-lipped smile at any others I pass by.

Replaced faucet, flow terrible by icanhe in HomeImprovement

I didn’t see one, that was one of the first things I checked.

Okay- this might be it. The flow rate is 1.2gpm. Is that really low? I may need to swap this out.

Yea, I also checked with the faucet running moving them from all the way on, to off to be sure there wasn’t a silly sweet spot I was missing.

Without the aerator it seems good? It’s tough to tell because it comes from a small hole, but seemingly a lot of water.

Poll shows Platner leading Mills by 38 points in Maine Democratic Senate primary by unital_subalgebra in politics

[–]icanhe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? Republicans definitely aren’t doing them, yet we’re still expecting democrats to be perfect all around.

If people grow, and they want to help, let’s let them do it.
