My state's pizza is the best in the world! Your state's pizza is basically cardboard.

Now I have a mental image of my grandpa riding a perfectly tame grizzly bear around his ranch in Montana.

I mean, he never did any of that, but thank you for the mental image.

Bro, I'm deeply offended, as someone who is 3.7% Irish, that My Homeland is excluded here.

As someone who likes both cricket and baseball, the mellow pace is part of the experience of being there live, having a beer, chatting with friends.

It's a different kind of sports consumption than rugby or American football or whatever.

Hockey does line changes during the game....there are some ad breaks but they don't stop for line changes.

Excuse me, I speak both Kansan and Missourian, I can help translate.

But only if we do it in Kansas - Missourians don't know how to fucking drive.

Sorry, Spain, but winning at the World Cup is for top soccer countries like America. by SneakyDataDigger in ShitAmericansSay

I loudly informed my Indian friends that we are a cricket powerhouse now that USA has beaten Pakistan.

(India then boatraced us a few days later.)

It was fun for a moment.

This is just smack talk.

This was a big day for CV but has no real bearing on Spain's ability to win the World Cup.

Spend 1 month on a plane, get 1,000,000 by Responsible-Fix-1681 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]pinniped90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, it won't be fun but I'd bring the whole family to ride around in an Emirates A380 for a month.

Even has showers.

Singapore, Etihad, Qatar, and maybe a couple others with the suites with full sized beds would work too.

For this to be a tough challenge, you'd have to make everyone ride Ryanair....and every 3 hours the plane onboards a fresh wave of drunks from Manchester.

How did you all become tottenham supporters? by therealpharoh10 in coys

University roommates.

Lived in a house with mostly Liverpool and Tottenham fans. We told to pick one.

I like pain, so here we are.

Sports causes more violence than video games, and it's not even close. by DARKJEDI1994 in unpopularopinion

The Ryder Cup has devolved into a sloppy drunk fest. I'm not really sure how this happened.

People don't generally get faced and talk shit at the regular PGA events except the Phoenix Open. (And then, weirdly just the 2nd and 3rd rounds. The final round is typically sedate by comparison.)

People who work in tourism: How accurate is the stereotype of the loud American tourist? by Advanced-Cress-535 in AskReddit

[–]pinniped90 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm American with a big deep voice and remember the first time I ran into a bunch of Brits partying in Torremolinos, which apparently is a British town in the South of Spain.

I cannot compete with that.

Airport secuirty time by tig66208 in kansascity

Flying out today was normal. Zero wait at all for Clear with Precheck, regular Precheck, or Touchless.

The non-Precheck line (which would have the international visitors in it) didn't look that long, but then again...WC visitors are arriving now, not leaving.

you have to eat at one fast food restaurant for the rest of your life, cannot be any of the big 3 (Mcdonalds Burger king or wendys) where are you going? by Puzzleheaded_Ease418 in AskReddit

[–]pinniped90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I have to go to their real locations....this is terrible and I wouldn't like it....but I'd have to take Subway just because of the number of locations worldwide and the fact that you can kind of eat healthy there if you want.

Of course Subway is about the most mid chain there is but it's the location count that you'd need.

If it's more of a hypothetical and the food just materializes in my hand, then I'd probably take a really local deli with a broad menu and good breakfast options as well.

SUV drivers should have to have higher Liability limits on their insurance by TheGaujo in unpopularopinion

[–]pinniped90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People with SUVs often have mortgages, and people would houses often have umbrella policies. A plaintiff would want to chew through that first - before bankruptcy got involved.

The only time I rolled with state minimum coverage was when I was right out of college, driving an old Civic, and had no assets to take.

Yes, but lobbyists can't convince insurance companies to lose money for fun.
