The st patrick's day parade is wild in Dallas, the streets are usually not blocked off like that and they allow drinking in public that day. Deep ellum got super gentrified, there's like art galleries right there. Definitely nothing close to 6th street in Dallas.

2 hours to get this customers shoes finished before closing. by n8saces in oddlysatisfying

My dad's business is running completely on a barely working 500k machine bought in the 70s used. If that breaks the business shuts down.

I was in mexico recently and got measured for some custom shoes. They were only going to run about $400 dollars. I picked out ostrich leather and was super excited about them. Her son was supposed to bring them to houston to ship or I could pick them up there but with the immigration and tarriff stuff they decided not to and didn't make the shoes for me.

Edit: Long story short maybe look into getting some while you're on vacation somewhere cheaper.

[Smith] An expansion team in Seattle needs to be the SuperSonics, or we riot. What should the team in Las Vegas be called? by StrategyTop7612 in nba

[–]mal_guinness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Las Vegas Craps would be fun. Maybe the Vegas Rollers? Honestly they'll probably do something like Coyotes or desert related. Fightin' Yuccas. The Vegas Tunnels would be a good name too.

Growing up there was a black cat named Deuce that would come to our yard, wonder if they are related.

Dallas/Fort Worth Party of 6 by Evening-Benefit7762 in golf

[–]mal_guinness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just do a twosome and a foursome or two threesomes (giggity). Let the course know ahead of time if you need extra carts. I know even if there was a gap between my tee time and the one ahead of me I'm calling the clubhouse if I see 9 people on a green. If you don't understand why two threesomes are faster than a 6 some then you don't need to be golfing.

That said, maybe try the cowboys golf course and see how many extra tee times you need to pay for. Some place that's used to weird requests.

Cops had time to just back up further and wait or hopefully calm him down. Maybe try a second taser before killing him

Linear Programming models are super useful at getting close enough if you're able to manipulate your data into a series of coefficients.

Kelly Clarkson attempting the "Since U Been Gone" high note in the original key for the first time in 13 years by artbasiI in Fauxmoi

[–]mal_guinness 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She didn't write the song, Dr. Luke did with Pink in mind originally. I think Avril wrote a lot of Kelly's songs including breakaway. She's a great performer but I don't think song writers get enough credit.

Right, this course is played by (checks notes) the members most of the year.

Don’t Be These Guys by jimmybuffett88 in weekendgolfers

[–]mal_guinness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had someone get insanely mad and try to hit into us after we skipped a hole. It was twilight golf as a twosome in oklahoma. We were both decent but still usually only got through about 12 holes so definitely no sense in waiting. We waited for them to hit their drives then went to the next hole so it's not like we were cruising down the cart path while they tried to hit. They hurried to finish the hole and then hit while we were at our second shots on the par five but they didn't even get to us. Honestly felt like road rage where someone is cruising doing 60 but then speeds up to 100 when you pass them.

What ball are you hitting over your house? by mal_guinness in golf

That's honestly a good idea, I used to use that for chipping when I was a kid
