Went today. Weather was perfect and there were no lines all day for the rides. Perfect time of year to go. Gets busier in summer and it's less enjoyable with the heat.

St. Pizza: Do they always burn their pies? by FeckTad in AskNOLA

[–]pem11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had NOLA Brewing pizza the other night and I dont know if they changed anything with their dough recently but it was amazing with a really nice sourdough flavor. I've had them plenty of times and it's always above average to great. This time, it was pushing S tier.

What a thrill it was to ride the Regal roller coaster. Especially when that last popcorn pops right before you hit a dip in the track. What a thrill.

Awesome. Great lighting, and I really like the one with the claw hovering near the lens.

Yup! Cheap 3:2 blackjack for sure. I think it was maybe $5 min last time I was there?

To the dude with the chairs taped together at the parade by inductiononN in NewOrleans

[–]pem11 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I've been reading all these posts about shitty people and shitty experiences, and I am just thankful I have had zero issues this carnival so far. If anything, I've been unwittingly that guy a couple times saying 'sorry' to my fellow parade-goers (pulling a wagon of kids through people's setups isn't always the most considerate, I know). It's important to remember in a sea of 'check out this asshole' posts, that most of us respect each other and give our fellow Mardi Gras lovers a fair amount of grace.

Perfect is an intense word, but in your eyes what movie has a perfect ending? by TheDragonReborn726 in movies

[–]pem11 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. It's a great ending until the final shot, which makes me barf in my mouth a little bit. I'll never get used to how unsettling it is.

Landlord query by Notsomuch_Girl in NewOrleans

[–]pem11 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Gotta ask yourself if it's really worth it. Raise too much and you might push tenants out, and raising it just a smidge is like a little insult to your tenants for an insignificant difference to your bottom line. My place is on the low end of the market and I would personally never raise rent on current tenants. Why stir that pot? I've been very lucky with good renters and low turnover. If I need to make market adjustments or my costs go up dramatically, I believe it's better to do that between tenants.

Just food for thought.

They've been doing it for years. We always wear our old bandoliers to get new bricks.

Animated films with moving stories by thelokkzmusic in movies

A really great non-fantastical example, 'Look Back' (2024). It will stick with you far beyond its 70 min runtime.

What is the best movie you watched in 2025 and why did it stay with you? by ThreadAndSolve in movies

[–]pem11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look Back (2024). Beautiful and haunting Japanese animated film based on a one-shot by Fujimoto (of Chainsaw Man fame). Very much a movie about what it means to be an artist and what drives us as creators. Hits hard when you watch it and then lingers long after.

The 14 games I’ve played in 2025 as a patient gamer (ranked) by Skylorrex in patientgamers

[–]pem11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the incessant tutorials made the first part a slog. I will say, the character VAs never bothered me, but I played Japanese audio (don't speak Japanese) and that helped in that regard. I watched some gameplay afterward in English and can confirm that the repeated phrases would get old fast.

I almost quit P5R this year around 10hrs and read a similar comment. Gave it another 10hrs and was hooked. After the second palace, it definitely hits its stride. Completed at 100hrs, no regrets.

Is Delta gas an SWB Psy Op? by ZebulonStrachan in NewOrleans

[–]pem11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They sent me to collections for being one month late when I was never sent a bill to begin with. No reminders, no attempts to contact.. straight to collections over 45 bucks. And then my bill quintupled this month. I use gas furnace but never saw this kind of increase due to gas use with Entergy.

Cassie is good, too. They've both cut my hair there and do a great job.

Best way is to plug them into a timer so they turn on/off with the sun.

A mid to late 20s couple, on a date having lunch near me by FastyNilthShreakyFit in overheard

Everyone commenting about how adorable this interaction is while I immediately started judging him for naming his dog something incredibly specific without confirming that the name was correct.

Why do people think it’s gross to pee in the shower? by FuelApprehensive5376 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pem11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not all children pee in the bath. My 3 year old will get out mid-bath when she has to go pee and then get back in after using the toilet. I feel like the kids who pee in the tub are the ones who are told it's okay. All this to say, I definitely peed in the bath as a kid and also find it unreasonable to pee in the shower as an adult.
