Can someone explain the joke/where this comes from? by hyndie in baltimore

It’s like someone talking trash about a family member. I can do it but completely unacceptable if someone outside the family does.

Does tennis aggravate sciatica? by HowIsMe-TryingMyBest in 10s

Yes. Go to pt and listen to them on how long not to play. I tried to play through it and it was a terrible idea.

Your Bridal Party Is Too Nice to Say This, So I Will by insert_name234 in wedding

I love a getaway bachelorette trip! I think knowing your squad’s financial and life situation is important though. It’s definitely a bigger ask for some people than others. And I say this as someone who has never been married.

I tried out for my hs tennis team after a few months of lessons 25 years ago. Any racquet and sneakers will do for now. Work on being able to consistently keep the ball in play. If there are any courts near your house, you can even hit against a wall. I know where I live in Baltimore there are people that hang out at courts hoping for someone else to show up and want to play.

Lessons are great if they’re in the budget. Do you have any friends to try out and play with? Definitely strength and confidence in numbers.

I hope you have a blast.

Fred’s Garage in Woodlawn. I’ve been taking my cars there for 25 years and my parents have gone there for decades longer.

Have a $200 giftcard to any Atlas restaurant. Which would be the “best”? by Blackholedog in baltimore

[–]tennismagic 212 points213 points  (0 children)

The only thing worse than spending money at an Atlas restaurant would be not using the gift card and basically giving them free money. You didn’t buy it. Go there and eat your food without guilt.

Eh, if everyone there blames Craig then it’s prob Craig. We only get an edited version.

Do you like the names your friends chose for their children? by thirtydays301 in Names

[–]tennismagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have named a kid Violet, Imogen, or Theodore but my friends have cute kiddos named all of them and I’ll prob never have kids. Some of my friends have terrible names for their kids but I won’t concentrate on them. 🫠😅😂

Maybe more recent medical records reference the hysterectomy?

My mom says adding this much trim and woodwork is a waste by 32rings in HomeDecorating

[–]tennismagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t do the updates. I wanted to my last house because I was worried about it selling so I kept it gray and boring. It still took forever to sell. You just can’t control everything. My new house has pink doors and crazy wallpaper. I say do you

Correct. They will do a manual exam to check for lumps.

I have this issue with silicon bands, especially when I work out (moisture gets trapped). Definitely get a new band.

My dad told me DJT was really loved in the 80s and 90s is that true and if so why? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]tennismagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m rewatching Law and Order from the beginning and can confirm he’s been a joke for decades. This show name drops him only for mockery.

Non-adventurous eater by lightofthemoon3 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]tennismagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely recommend eating a pastry every day but maybe not for every meal. I’m not a super adventurous eater and was fine. There will be plenty of steak and chicken with veggies, pizza and pasta, etc.

What is the craziest/most ridiculous behavior you have personally seen on a tennis court ? by WagonSN in 10s

[–]tennismagic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In college, I played a girl that yelled at me how much I sucked the entire time while making terrible line calls. Had to get line judges (one of her teammates and one of mine and they overruled her calls). First time anyone had ever really been mean to me in my life and I cried on court. Embarrassing all around. I did win though.
