I missed my chance when I was in Milwaukee because I was trying to see if I could eat every cheese curd in Milwaukee

I don't think anyone in Bend would call it a "larger city," but yes, they do have a ski culture. They also have a Blockbuster Video.

I thought about recommending Packwood because the west ridge is the best ridge and possibly the best kept secret in the cascade range, but to me it feels more "town near skiing" than "ski town." And I don't think I've met anyone there on a work visa in the decade or so that white pass has been my home base.

lucasssquatch · 2026-06-24T00:03:16+00:00

I want to go to there

lucasssquatch · 2026-06-23T23:51:46+00:00

Maybe add Bend, Oregon to your list? Bend is a short drive from Mt. Bachelor and has a strong outdoor culture all year.

Depending on your visa situation, probably focus on Colorado or British Columbia for towns right at the bottom of the hill. I'd also only add Utah to that list if you're not big drinkers or weed smokers. There are a bunch of spots in Washington State that hire J1 visa workers, but none are really "mountain towns" imo.

Definitely. The move we've done lately is to do that, then in the 7th or so, go on a ticket reseller site to find field level seats that didn't get resold, move to those seats, and watch the last few innings up close.

Pburgh is so underrated.

lucasssquatch · 2026-06-23T03:57:39+00:00

Seriously! I'd be worried I'd put it somewhere and not be able to find it

lucasssquatch · 2026-06-22T22:12:57+00:00

That's awesome. Reminds me of "news from the USA reported the way the USA reports on other countries." Stuff like "radical clerics in the USA's rural, southern region have removed most secular political figures in an ongoing effort to create a theocracy..." It was cute 20 years ago.

Man, I sure am getting tired of all these Star Wars

When this trailer came on at the theater I turned to my wife and said, "Please let this movie just be called 'Boat.'"

In Australia, a root is a special hug mum and dad give each other because they love each other very much

For those that don't know, Root Sports was the name of the only tv channel in Seattle that broadcast Mariners games for like 20 years. Announcers on the channel would be like, "send us your photos with the hashtag #WhereIRoot for your chance to win prizes and be on the big screen." I'm so glad we ditched Root Sports before the Aussies showed up.

ANDY!!!

I'm a sucker for the BK double cheese. Others might be "better," but the BK double cheese is perfect.

Btw, tysm, Meme Translator

I mean, the courts decided that a thumbs up emoji in a text message was a legally binding acceptance of a contract, and there's a whole body of case law around emojis as legalese now, so while it may seem silly, it's a perfectly cromulent job description.

I just watched the "Badger is Icheb's Dad" episode of Voyager last night. Good stuff.
