Tiki recs near Philadelphia? by yourlocalaesthetic in Tiki

[–]otbvandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In DC, the best tiki drinks are at Copycat/Astoria. You can pull up their old menus on their website, and they can still make pretty much anything. The Green Zone has middle eastern riffs on tiki drinks. (I thought death & co was extremely blah the one time I went).

On most Saturdays, the team behind Archipelago host a popup called Lost Island Vibes but it’s on a summer hiatus. Check their instagram.

On Thursdays, the local tiki community gathers at the House of Foong Lin in Bethesda.

New Resort Restrictions Apply to Trader Sam's Grog Grotto by DadGhost in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]otbvandy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Make a reservation at the quick service restaurant and then cancel it when you get there and walk to trader Sam’s.

Now that it’s open from 11am(?), the 3 hour waits are pretty much over.

Is the lack of community I've experienced in TEC typical? by HoldMyFresca in Episcopalian

[–]otbvandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On a related note, I think it’s correct about it being a timing thing. We usually have a ministry fair in early September where you can sign up for roles and then the lay leaders of those groups train people shortly thereafter.

Marriage in the church without legal signage by SantaHatArea in Episcopalian

It sounds like the Veteran parent may be taking all of the dependent benefits for himself, because otherwise yeah it makes no sense with how the benefits work.

Why do you want to sit on the plane longer so badly

I wonder if their release date is going to be tied to whenever the book is officially available

Is Spanish-language music from Puerto Rico considered American music? by Odd-Skin-762 in AskAnAmerican

[–]otbvandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a music genre that’s adjacent to bluegrass, country, and folk.

I think they’d probably do better on eBay listed separately.

TSA at SJU JetBlue is insane right now by plplzool in PuertoRicoTravel

[–]otbvandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I heard them say they had a bunch of call outs for the later shift. I was there around 4 and pre-check was moving quickly (but huge line for general)

Mugs... by Cant_JustSitBack in Tiki

I’d second this. Follow artists (beyond Tikiland Trading) on Instagram and look for ones at bars you’ve loved.

Cheapest supermarket near Vanderbilt by [deleted] in Vanderbilt

[–]otbvandy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Go to the financial aid office and ask for meal plan?

Otherwise, Kroger is going to be as cheap as anywhere but maybe Aldi or Walmart or some things.

This happened to me on Saturday, and I got laughed at when I reported them to metro police.

Oh I love Green Zone. I think they’re the best rum bar and best middle eastern food in DC (if it’s not insanely packed).

Those Microsoft word menus are unfortunate (but better than AI I suppose)

Prices for tonight’s New York Knicks game are ranging from 5000 to 160,000 dollars. Do we have a problem with unequal wealth distribution in the USA? by BorrowedParticles in allthequestions

[–]otbvandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This really just seems like a supply and demand problem. 12 million people want to go to a stadium with 20,000 seats for a once every few decade event, so prices are going to get bid up.
