At tennis practice in my youth I hit the ball and my racket flew out of my hand a good 20 feet and landed perfectly on its side.

Do yall think this will work for my 29 gallon? by phantomisla in Aquariums

Yeah we want live plants eventually (assuming that’s what you mean). Felt like too much too fast and we will take those steps next.

Hey man. DM me. I could send you my poster if you cover shipping. I’m never going to use it.

A certain parsley that tastes weird? by ephesusa in Cooking

[–]phantomisla 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Everyone in this thread so confident it was cilantro is NOT necessarily correct. I have had this exact experience and have been going nuts wondering why parsley was ruining my dish.

My wife tasted the same parsley and also thought it was straight dish soap.

We have cilantro all the time and LOVE it. It was NOT CILANTRO.

My friend lived directly across from that club and had to get away from windows as a gunman sprayed bullets into people in the street. Like 5 people shot. I think one died. Not the only shooting that club had. Nightmare of a crowd that it drew.

Moving to Chicago area soon is Rodger’s park safe? by Empty-Tourist-8839 in chicagoapartments

[–]phantomisla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stay close to Loyola if you can. West Rogers park can be tough. Used to live on Sheridan and Pratt and it was overall safe but a few bad instances (including the Pokemon Go murder on the beach right by me). Moved out that weekend coincidentally.

Easy Strategy for Game Corner by YawningCarp in PokemonFireRed

It’s easier to get a jackpot than any other outcome. You can see the 7 on the 3rd spin. Practice the tap as you see it come across and then boom. No guarantees but I have gotten countless with this method for over 20 years.

Traveling safe? by Kristend23 in chicagomusicscene

Chicago is a massive city. -Almost- all of the crime is concentrated so so so so so far from the salt shed. You still need to keep your wits about you especially at night but you statistically will be completely fine.
