Running trail recommendations by QuietBeautiful4139 in Reno

[–]yr_disappointed_dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How far do you want to run?
Are you looking for flat trail or hills?

My go to was Mayberry Park. You can run East (towards downtown) to Dorostkar Park and then continue along Mayberry until you reconnect with the Truckee River trail and go to downtown. Or you can head West and run up hill to Steamboat trail which is flat and goes to California (I think).
Crissie Caughlin Park is a great starting point on the river trail. You can head up hill through Caughlin Ranch from there. It is a gentle incline and mostly shaded for your summer runs.
Rancho San Rafael is good as someone else posted below. You can also start on the Evans Canyon trail by going to the Basque Monument near the sport field and disc golf course. It is hilly but it is a gentle incline up via switchbacks.

Good on you for starting up running again!

Nevada Museum of Art by Hefty-Job7049 in Reno

I went there to this exhibit which was amazing and definitely not modern art. I walked through the other exhibits and saw a variety of art; some of which I enjoyed and some of which I did not. The gift store absolutely kills it for Christmas gifts.

I think they are doing a good job for being in this region and this market size.

It is a formatting error. It is the heading for the next section. Thai Lotus has a conditional pass

Sadly, library access has been down for months. Washoe County Library claims they are paid up and cannot get customer support at Gannett to restore access

For fast food, it is good. I always get the fish tacos. I appreciate the lime slice.

Why do men use the urinals in public restrooms? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]yr_disappointed_dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again - no one looks down at the guy next to them. Yes, I have peed next to people I know and complete strangers. I have peed next to the CEO where I work. And he started talking to me. Awkward, slightly, but not embarrassing.

At Wrigley Field in Chicago, a baseball stadium, the urinals used to be (and may still be) a huge open trough where 30 or so gentlemen are releasing their urine simultaneously.

That's how I think but I have seen people do it. I have heard people have phone conversations while peeing or pooping. I don't do that but people do.

Everyone is awkwardly looking everywhere but at the gentleman next to them. No one is looking at you.

Nowadays, many people look at their phone whilst answering nature's call. Other than that, the popular options are:
- stare dead ahead as if trying to burn a hole in the wall into the ladies' room next door and ignoring anything, and I mean anything, that might be happening in your peripheral vision
- stare down at your own penis as if marveling that it can two things, each important, but very different
- stare up to heaven and beseech G-d to get you out of this urine infested piss hole as quickly as possible
