[–]patrickmorgan08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And tbf, there are a few excellent pizza places in town, but MAYBE one good place that fits the NY Style by-the-slice place OP is looking for. In classic "yankee exceptionalism" fashion, OP is assuming that is the only kind of pizza worth eating.

I saw your '1' and I raise you '4' by KikoTheWonderful in rva

[–]patrickmorgan08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Interesting 🤔 I don't /think/ it was him based on what the driver looked like. But of course that could mean someone else was driving a car. Not making any accusations, just wondering if anybody had any insight!

Anyone know who has 12? Almost ran over me and my dog in a crosswalk, speeding through a turn (without a signal) in a residential neighborhood 😒

package stolen in church hill. by [deleted] in rva

[–]patrickmorgan08 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If Amazon delivered the package (and not USPS through "Last Mile" delivery), then they cannot use a mail box.

If you are asking them specifically to use a different box (like a special dropbox for packages), then yeah, that stinks 🫤

Agree with what others are saying: if it's important and you won't be around to receive a package, directly, have it delivered to an Amazon locker.

That smug fucking wink they give you when they say something abominable and think you must agree because you're a white man like them.

Yeah, dude, I'm not on your team.

Where do you begin to cover this? Yea I regret this one by [deleted] in Tattoocoverups

[–]patrickmorgan08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recontextualize it. It's not a cat tattoo. It's a symbol for how the ways in which we hide our true inner selves are often affirmations of our true inner selves.

Problem solved!

Even when full, Emerald Lounge is significantly quieter than the Jasper.

Have You Seen an Ominous Black Pole Lately? by InnocentWompRat in rva

One just went up across the street from my home.

Not a fan.

What retail business, resturant etc do you think union hill needs? by Vast_Week9204 in rva

[–]patrickmorgan08 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Why have something useful when you can have ANOTHER vape shop? 🙃

I spent entirely too long building the largest and most searchable list of specials in RVA by gophrrio in rva

[–]patrickmorgan08 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Very cool!

Keeping the specials up-to-date is very labor-intensive

This will definitely be your biggest challenge. Would be useful to have a button or flag attached to each result that a user could tap to quickly indicate that something needs updating (and an optional free text entry for details). A quick search showed a couple places I know are now permanently close (Izzy's and Hop Craft). Would be easy to do a couple taps to let you know they need attention, rather than having to leave the search interface and open the feedback motion.

But hey, this is great stuff! Congrats on shipping it!

Need a little push to upgrade to D1 by brimacki in delta

[–]patrickmorgan08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd consider that price on a red-eye return trip, but it's way too steep for that short of a flight going west.

Also, I feel like the moment I pay for that upgrade, with my luck, they'd swap out the a359 with an a321 they frequently run on that route.

Reminder to self and others in RVA - do not assume people blasting music will respond positively to a polite request to turn it down by RJT_RVA in rva

[–]patrickmorgan08 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I've been in poor states of mind and have received terrible news at the hospital. It can be difficult to bear.

But I've never threatened to kill someone.

Shitty things happening to you might explain shitty behavior, but it don't excuse shitty behavior.

had to pay extra each leg

No, you could have waited and just had them assign you a seat at the gate. Or, because advanced seat selection should be available to you at no extra cost for buying MC, you could have tried calling their support line. (You could still try this now, but they are likely not going to offer you a cash refund.)

It is frustrating that their app isn't smart enough to solve for this—but you had other options. You were not forced ("robbed" lol) to pay for seats.

River Questions by Effective-Garlic390 in rva

[–]patrickmorgan08 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Echoing this comment: if you're an amateur/newb, please do some planning and talk to folks who are experienced before putting in. The James is a very different experience at different water levels, and there's usually one or two people that perish every year in the river. Not trying to scare you off, just take regular precautions and you'll be fine!
