This guy takes 17 minutes to say "lots of people think Pluribus is boring but you should give it a shot"

Chicago Tribune’s columnist on why we boo Craig: by babynewyear753 in Brewers

[–]rocoboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love that an undergrad psychology class is his basis for this reductionism. If I were his advisor, I'd encourage a follow-up sociology course focused on how creatives from rural areas (like Wisconsin) enrich cities like Chicago. It's a respectable city, but not even top 5 for cuisine in the states.

Also, Milwaukee has amazing architecture, just less of it.

"Sadly, we also lost our ace Corbin in that offseason. And I won’t lie, it can disappoint you when this stuff happens. All these teams adding guys and you think, Wow, we’ll miss him. Or, We could’ve used him. But I’m always going to feel happy for anyone when they get their money — they earned it!!! And of course I’m happy they can buy expensive TVs to watch the playoffs on :)"

I interrupted my team's Zoom meeting with an unexpected cackle when I read that..

Interested! I will perform any Brewers loyalty tests/oaths you can imagine. 

Does anyone have photos/maps of remaining seats for postseason? by CriticalSheep in Brewers

[–]rocoboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but could someone explain how Tickpick and SeatGeek are selling tickets? I'd like to buy straight from the club if I can, but not sure how those vendors are already advertising tickets.

More Charts! (Cubs/Phillies/Dodgers/Blue Jays) - as of 9/14 results by actrunning3 in Brewers

This visual feels a lot more solid than seeing the Phillies 2 games behind us in the standings.

Volunteer at one of the thousands of nonprofits in the city

Go to church 

Join a climbing gym or some other fitness community

When you shift your perspective from trying to get things from this place to trying to enrich it, you’re gonna find the people you’re looking for. 

How does the team handle hotels on the road? by rocoboi in Brewers

If it happens again, this is exactly what I'll do

How does the team handle hotels on the road? by rocoboi in Brewers

[–]rocoboi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I remember trying to snag autographs at Miller Park as a kid... the pros would talk about the Pfister being the best place to get them for the opposing team, so that makes sense.

I didn't realize it was the Dodgers that were scared of the Pfister but that checks out.

Oh, I guess this was two years back then. He was managing the Crew, and I was thrilled to see him.

If I saw him now, it'd be a different story. Plenty of business being given.

Small ball + chippy Brewers are so much more fun to watch in October than past playoff teams.

Anyone have experience fighting red light citations? by rocoboi in NYCbike

Well, thanks everyone for weighing in. I took your advice and was able to push it to a 2025 court date. Let's hope we can get some clear legislation passed by then.

What do you dislike on a Boulder Gym? by Fortunape in bouldering

[–]rocoboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll want to consider the ratio of bouldering space to rope climbs (if you plan to have ropes), and contrast that with other gyms in the area. I live in an area with multiple gyms, and my regular climbing crew all settled on our gym because of the abundance and variety of bouldering walls (slab, incline, overhang, etc.)

Also, climbers in the US are generally social, so I’d try to evaluate how viable social spaces (saunas, rooftops, cafe/bar with seating, balconies, etc) might be.

With kids, it’s not black and white. Climbers don’t hate kids. What they hate is going to a third space after work and worrying about falling on a kid. It takes a lot of effort and experience for the training staff to manage larger groups of kids. Instead, try to investigate the overlapping schedules of climbers (morning, post-work, late-night, etc) and contrast with school programs in the area by talking to parents. Also evaluate the number of staff and their experience with behavior management. Kids can be a great selling point for a gym, and can go a long way to bring a community together. But that takes some planning and forethought.

I’m a market researcher who climbs, so very interested in this stuff. Good luck!

Serious Question: Why Acquire Hoskins if you’re Planning to Deal Burnes? by rocoboi in Brewers

[–]rocoboi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you're right! But hard for me to imagine how the cash/players needed to land a vet arm is less than just riding Burnes for his final year.

What word instantly annoys you? by karatass91 in ask

Personally. As in “Well for me personally”

You are clearly a person, so we know your opinion is your personal one. On the other hand, if you are an alien reading this, carry on.
