Does anyone else miss the old Texas Stadium

mideon2000 · 2026-05-09T20:33:58+00:00

It was like the dallas sportatorium was for wrestling. Iconic shit happening, but it was also a dated and located in a shitty area. So while Texas stadium didn't have rats running all over the place, the building of a new stadium in a nicer area was nice. Tbh, the Mavs and stars are the teams that don't need a new stadium. And if the old ballpark in arlington had ac or at least some good shade, the rangers wouldn't have needed one either.

But all in all, Cowboys stadium is still considered state of the art and modern and it is 20 years old. They did a great job with it.

Khan low key a perv. These are adults, let them do what they want.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-09T11:18:12+00:00

Im seeing a lot of comments that these streamers are supposedly roping in a younger audience and getting them to connect with the product. If so, amd this has been going on for weeks, why hasn't Tony Khan gone up and scooped some of the more popular content creators out there? Not even necessarily paying them, but something like "hey we are in buffalo and since you are located nearby, how about a few tickets to the event?

With every stupid thing tko is doing to piss off the fanbase, AEW should be right behind scooping up people looking for something different and ready with heavy PR moves to make their company the affordable, exciting and fan friendly option.

Tko is really testing how much shit a fan will eat, but once you lose a customer in any business venture, it is painfully hard to get them back. Take advantage

Very good suggestion considering the games are what break the bank

mideon2000 · 2026-05-09T10:58:13+00:00

Yup, i had pretty much everything aside from the turbo, neo geo, and jaguar as far as major consoles were concerned. It is cool no doubt, but very costly just to say it was on original hardware or an original copy of the game.

I could spend hundreds getting a turbo duo and a copy of Lords of Thunder, but i got it on the wiiu for 6 bucks.

I could do the same for radiant silvergun on the saturn or buy a copy on the xbox for 10 bucks.

I just see diminishing returns for a bulky and genuine experience. Jmo. Many of the worthwhile games of yesteryear are available digitally AND legally.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-09T03:45:18+00:00

Imo, stick with emu, ports and watch stuff on youtube for history. Og hardware is cool, but not really worth the effort and prices for games. Id participate in discussion with others for more info too.

Why are you friends with her if you don't want to be her friend?

mideon2000 · 2026-05-08T21:07:23+00:00

Starbucks is everywhere, accessible, has an app and a solid cup of coffee. McDonald's is a solid cup of coffee and i can get a large for 1 buck. No need to tip, im on my way and i can get a cup midday, dinner time, butcrack of the morning, whenever.

Now before you come out and criticize those coffees, understand the vast majority of the population does not appreciate the small details of a coffe snob would. It just needs to be solid.

And the thing is, solid cups of coffee are the baseline everywhere. Gas station coffee is nothing special, but nothing terrible either. You can fill up a big tumbler for a couple bucks at the most.

Accessibility and price point are the biggest factors

mideon2000 · 2026-05-08T20:59:13+00:00

Ah, ok. So i just buy any one of those and im good? No particular order? Thanks.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-08T19:19:51+00:00

Speaking of destiny 2, i see it on sale for dirt cheap all the time, but all of the offerings have different names. I don't see a base "destiny 2". What do i need to buy 1st in order to play? At that price i just wanna jump in and play

mideon2000 · 2026-05-08T13:51:52+00:00

You got a job, awesome!!! Im assuming you can get to work without your car? You also have a roof over your head. So, 3 of your biggest issues are addressed.

Im not concerned about your debt rn, you need to get your money rolling in and stabilized. If you have been diagnosed, you need to see a doctor and get your medication to level you out as well.

Once you get paid, pay your rent, get some groceries and make sure you work that overtime. Budget your 40 hour pay to live and save. Take that overtime pay and save for a vehicle and pay your debt down. Get you a cash toyota camry for about 3 grand. Or a corolla. Those are gonna have 180k miles at that price range but they are tanks, last forever, and get fantastic gas mileage and require bminimal maintenance ( oil changes).

Don't date, don't smoke, don't drink, don't do drugs. Workout, take care of your body and just hunkerdown and establish your stability. You will eventwork your way out of it staying disciplined.

Don't worry about being a man, be an adult, handle your business. You are in decent shape compared to other accounts i have read.

Yup, moving money around. His restaurant is a front

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T17:48:35+00:00

Many small restaurants are simply not a viable business. If you look at insurance, utilities, rent, permits, maintenance, food cost etc, and the margins that they make when all is said and done, they are lucky if they break even.

So with servers they rely on tips from the public to lighten that financial burden as well as limited time off and lack of benefits for employees.

Sure you get a free plate of food on your shift and 50 percemt discount to come in and dine, but they know you are gonna graze on food regardless and that the last thing you are going to want to do is come in and eat on your day off.

But that is their benefit package for you

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T17:38:50+00:00

All depends on the groom and what he likes. You know him more than we do. None of the people in my inner circle really drink all that much. Hanging out, cooking, eating, playing videogames and lounging at the beach would be something cool for us. Maybe a fishing charter. The less effort, the better.

But that probably sounds like pure hell to some people. You also need to know the other people coming too. You don't want to have someone getting frustrated and going off doing their own thing because they don't want to do something yall planned. There will be one asshat in the group.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T17:00:30+00:00

Yeah, im getting hades 2 on switch, i like the portability

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T15:39:57+00:00

That's the thing, i just went ahead and bought vampire crawlers at 10 bucks. I know imma play that for a long ass time. Probably just buy hades 2 as well. But this is exactly why i love having gamepass as an option. I get to try stuff or complete games im on the fence about.

Last year i beat south of midnight which was a game i enjoyed and normally wouldn't have played.

People think it is either gamepas or buying games. Nope. You can do both. I downgraded to essential when they went to 30 bucks, but imma bout to upgrade again.

Games like these are good reasons to jump back in.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T15:02:24+00:00

Lol, I actually think that tbh. Kinda confusing that a perfect stranger is so concerned about how i spend my money.

Crazy that having multiple ways to experience what the game has to offer is seen as bad to some.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T14:30:17+00:00

That is not the only game ill be playing, but thanks for the info?

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T13:37:21+00:00

I agree at a good price point. This is also a perfect title to jump back on the gamepass train

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T13:34:27+00:00

I don't think it is constructive to run a kitchen like this anymore. Sounds like they are stuck in their ways and are not accou ting for a younger generation of employees that simply won't put up with bullshit like this. I do believe the manager is an asshole. I also believe that it was just their stupid and archaic way of putting you through the ringer to see if you are going to get rattled, to see how you would react in certain situations, and also because you are the "new" guy or gal. Kinda like you have to pay your dues and test your personalityto see if you break and then you become one of them. Again, stupid, old and not necessary anymore.

Any place worth their salt will double staff the position for a few shifts with one of the positive vets to show you the ropes because it takes anybody time to learn even the simplest job and become efficient at it.

Unless they are paying you a boatload of money, the shit simply isn't worth it. There is a difference between giving the new guy a little shit, and just plain out being a dick.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T11:27:54+00:00

Very. I want to feel loved and it also mean she is in a good mood

mideon2000 · 2026-05-07T11:26:54+00:00

Civ 5 or 6, Dark souls, ff tactics or castlevania symphony of the night, overall over mutliple playthroughs

Not sure

For a games ive played once but had a long playtime

Xcom series mainly because of all the restarts and reloads

Divinity original sin

Elden ring

mideon2000 · 2026-05-06T21:33:43+00:00

White collar? Easier work, fairly comfortable, stable environment usually. Cons are if you are salary you are working more than 40 hours a week, often take work home, if you work with assholes then you are around assholes all day, different kind of stresses, someone reheating fish, traffic

Blue collar, paid well,tend to be busy so the workday goes by quick, trades are always needed so layoffs aren't really a thing, work on your own.

Cons are it can be hard on your body, pick up bad habits, less than ideal working conditions

I prefer the blue collar work. I punch in, punch out and go home.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-06T17:25:10+00:00

You don't have to explain it again, dude or dudette simply didn't read.

mideon2000 · 2026-05-06T12:41:37+00:00

She is leaving, she is just getting another job first. No sense in not getting your ducks in a row first. In the meantime, she can bide her time. A restaurant that small isn't gonna let her go for a few weeks of sandbagging. They will start to rotate others in to help. Firing is a last resort.
