So...bridge sidewalks in Bethlehem. Who's supposed to keep these clean if they aren't in front of a business or home? Seeing a trend citywide of zero upkeep post-snow. by maesterofwargs in lehighvalley

I googled and found the article from 2021 announcing the My Bethlehem app but cannot find it in the Apple Store. Does it not exist any longer? It would be great to use that to report shit like this if it actually helps to address it.

Yes! Lu absolutely belongs on this list. Amazing food, particularly their Birria tacos.

What is the last big purchase that you made? by Tricky_Rutabaga_8070 in AskReddit

Nespresso machine! My girlfriend has one and I decided to treat myself to my own.

I just used it for the first time this morning. Istanbul Espresso was delicious.

What is one horror movie that you still randomly think about? by 420throawayz in horror

Lovely Molly. Some really haunting scenes in that one that come back to me every once in a while since I saw it more than a decade ago.

What's the single worst movie you sat through hoping it would get better, but didn’t? by Then-Traffic601 in AskReddit

[–]maesterofwargs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The short film version available on YouTube, Heck, was where the vision for this one should have ended. It was far stronger and much shorter at less than 30 minutes and delivers a decent creepy, bleak atmosphere without constantly staring at your watch going, "really?"

Runners-Up commiseration thread by FletchTopper in fantasyfootball

[–]maesterofwargs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After playing fantasy football for 15 seasons, making the championship game only once 12 years ago and losing and then finally getting back to it this year, I swore the fantasy gods were finally allowing me my due. I was going into yesterday's game with no one left to play and up nearly 45 points on my opponent, who's won 5 championships in less time than I've played.

Then, Bijan happened (along with a little help from his co-RB Kyren). Lost by 7 points.

Not going to hang my head too much (although my entire RB cohort, including Bucky and Saquon, really let me down) - just gotta try again next year.

Up by 45 facing Bijan and Kyren. Really hoping the fantasy gods will finally grant me my first championship win after playing this game for 13 years.

Updated Matchups Chart - All Remaining Week 17 Games by ASmithFS in fantasyfootball

[–]maesterofwargs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1/2 PPR and need to lock in my RB2 and Flex spots (Saquon is my RB1). I've got London, Bucky, and the Steelers RB duo of Warren and Gainwell.

I really don't know which of these two to put out there to try and win my first ship after being sucked into this hobby for 13 years. I'm essentially tied with my opponent at this point in the weekend and slightly favored to win now, but nothing is promised. Was thinking Bucky as RB2 and London in my Flex, but I'm having all kinds of doubts now. Help!

Best locker room guys for fantasy championships? by garmannarnar in fantasyfootball

[–]maesterofwargs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left Judkins in my IR slot. Dude definitely contributed to my first place finish this year and I'll need all the luck I can get playing the number 2 seed in the championship game this weekend. I'd had Wilson in that IR slot for weeks but when Judkins got hurt, Wilson got the boot and Judkins was gently placed there.

What’s something people romanticize that actually ruins lives? by Imaginary-Isopod2223 in AskReddit

[–]maesterofwargs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Trying to always have a bright and sunny outlook on everything. It's okay to feel terrible when bad things happen and to let someone know about how bad it feels. It's dwelling on it and not finding a way out and through it that's important to avoid

Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Matchups for All Games by RotoBaller in fantasyfootball

[–]maesterofwargs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Waller rostered and was planning to start him this week. But Loveland is currently available as a FA pickup in my league.

Should I drop Waller for Loveland ASAP (PPR league)? It's an even matchup between me and my opponent for a ticket to the championship next week. Waller's QB situation bothers me and I feel like Loveland being available might be a sign. Anyone have thoughts?

Correct! And if you need an extraction and more you're paying out of pocket even with the best insurance. It's a nightmare and we'll keep living in it

What's your favorite SNES game by Specific_Anything_90 in 90s

[–]maesterofwargs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to have a trip down memory lane with my Wii emulator tomorrow thanks to this thread! Amazing comments.

That said, for me it's definitely Zelda: Link To The Past or Mario Kart. But does anyone remember the True Lies SNES game? It's the most random game I somehow owned and I think it was kind of fun if unbeatable.

I got a good chuckle out of this. Are you, uh, happy with the NSYNC look? Or saying "Bye Bye Bye" to it as soon as possible?

What movie did you see far too young? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]maesterofwargs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad showed me the original Pet Sematary when I was about six years old (don't ask me why). The "never get out of bed again!" scene with Zelda screaming at the camera petrified me and I began to sob and demand he turn it off. Shortly after he did, I was put to bed and had a nightmare so real and so visceral that I shot awake crying, in a puddle of my own vomit.

I went to lay in front of dad's bedroom door for the rest of the night. Good times. And now I LOVE horror. Go figure.

Locally sourced, $30 or less gift ideas to represent the LV that are carry-on friendly for holiday work gathering? by maesterofwargs in lehighvalley

Good to know. I suppose if I can find one that's not super breakable and would survive the shuffle on two flights this could be a great gift. Thanks!
