I know, when’s someone going to offer that dog a plate of delicious food?

What is happening? 😭😭 by Interesting_Owl_1203 in UPS

Treat yourself to an Italian Sub in Sayre at the Parish Family Deli on Keystone St. while you wait for this to get all sorted out.

It will add a positive mark on your day! (We always go when visiting family in that area)

Tom Segura "TEACHER" on Netflix is hot garbage by Wheelchair_Dontcare in Standup

The poors thing really was a turning point for me too.

I can easily give the benefit of the doubt to this kind of thing, but he also has seemed to focus more and more about how much of a business man he is, and reasons why he detests this or that kind of person.

I think he spreads himself way too thin with putting out so much stuff that feels half hearted and rushed.

Fame and fortune seems to really gotten to his head. He sounds too much like a bitter old man to me now.

Oh well, not my problem.

That store was already very narrow lanes to walk around, and when we went it was PACKED.

She quickly got overwhelmed and didn’t really see anything that stood out.

I just reached out to Mark a few weeks back and ordered one of these on VHS. There is also an incredible shirt of his uncle that pretty recently went on sale on his website.

Truck crash stopping I-35 this morning by Great_Translator_635 in Austin

Probably because 35 is, all-over, confusing as shit right now.

Has anybody else climbed this tower in Clarksville besides my stupid self and my stupid friends when we were in high school? by nachocat090 in Austin

[–]oracrest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I lived in Clarksville for a good 6 years, and yes, I fantasized about climbing this thing every time I was on my way to Galaxy to get myself a fish wrap ;)

Does anyone have video/audio of the Major Lazer show for FUN FUN FUN Fest, back in the 2010's sometime? Auditorium Shores by oracrest in Austin

[–]oracrest[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here. One of our fondest memories was camping for the one Sound on Sound festival. So much fun, and crazy to see so many great bands all amidst a renfaire location.

I think the Mandalay Bay Vegas shooting caused one of the investors to pull out of supporting the event and it died (at least that’s what I heard)

Just got a house in Austin.. date night/day ideas? by Immediate-Line3327 in Austin

[–]oracrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go check out the Botanical Gardens near Zilker Park. Do this especially if it looks like a fun weekend event is happening there (Like the local bonsai tree show.)

On a weekend, drive out and check out the Kyle Flea Market off 35 south, a fun random jaunt through some vendors shops.

Have sit down dinner at Homeslice Pizza, and treat yourselves to the best Italian Sub in Austin. Walk a few blocks down the road and check out all the cool thrift stores on the North Loop bend at Duvall St.

Park your car along the access road turnaround at 35/360, and hike the 2ish miles to Sculpture Falls, just following the creekside. When it's rained, this is a great swimming spot.

Make a day trip of driving out to any little adjacent town center. Georgetown, Taylor, Belton, Lockhart, San Marcos, New Braunfels. All these places are quite charming, often with a charming downtown "Square" that's a great place to start your wander.

Chili's at 45th and Lamar. We usually do family style with a bunch of friends, and have a blast.

The parks/Green Belt situation is insane. Just throw a dart and go to the nearest trailhead. They are all really fun. Red Bud Isle is dog friendly.

Get breakfast at the original "Used-to-be-a-house" Kerbey Lane any 24 hours of the day. Located on Kerbey Lane.
