“What a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Hey Honey, what if we enjoyed the day and also saved money on childcare by going to the brew pub and making our children everyone else’s obligation?”
When my middle daughter was 8, we had “lunch” at a brew pub after being at the park, because I had to catch an OSU game and we were still a half hour from home. She used the crayons they gave her to draw a man shaking his fist at a TV with a caption bubble, “Tackle Him!” My wife helped her spell tackle. You have to encourage your children to develop their artistic gifts.
I am going to back into my parking spot at Love Field on Friday while boarding in my flip flops and Viori yoga shorts and my wife and 4 year old will be picking me up in San Antonio and we will stop at a brewery before we head to my mom’s. Will probably have a cold soda and ham sandwich with mayo once I arrive.
No one actually likes having other people’s kids around. Anywhere. Ever. Fortunately for you there ain’t shit anyone can do about it so fuck it, enjoy your beer.
I was kidding. Haven’t drank in about a year, and only sparingly the year before that. Have bad medication interactions with alcohol. Getting old is great!
Pokemon Go is being sold to the Saudis. Summer 2016 was really the best it's going to get, all downhill from there
ain't gonna front, never got into Pokemon (too old) but that year or two that Meatball was into this game was some great bonding time for the two of us...he'd get so mad/jealous that I could collect all day/walk eggs at work while he was stuck at school lol...good times
I hate(d) Pokemon Go. It turned everyone in zombies and people were just wondering around the city staring at their phones (more than usual) with no awareness of what's around them. Would walk right into you, cut you off, crowd random spaces. The worst
I haven't touched it since 2016 because it decimated your phone battery, but it was a nice thing seeing kids at least get outside more. Sadly that's where the bar is at, but not by kids own fault imo.
It's funny that this is your perception of it because it was the most social I've seen the public ever. Even though everyone had their phones out, everyone was helping each other and talking to strangers and bonding. It was amazing
We were on vacation on the Delaware coast when the craze hit. The boardwalk in Ocean City MD was basically everyone on their phones chasing Pokémon.
I was at a wedding where the invite clearly said suit and tie for men and half of the guests showed up dressed like complete schlubs and I got boomer level mad. so many people with no tie, non dress shirts and sneakers instead of dress shoes. Menswear guy should be president
Brides family is white trash and they were the biggest offenders. so many people furiously proud of refusing to dress nicely for even five hours for a wedding
A significant number of people were murdered, robbed, or assaulted because it would draw them into high crime areas with zero situational awareness. https://pokemongodeathtracker.com/
Delaware’s beaches (Rehobeth, Dewey, Fenwick, Bethany, etc) are very under rated. Low key vibe, with OC Maryland having every vacation type thing you might want. Top notch crab, seafood and other Chesapeake Bay type cuisine. Overrun by Philly—DC—Baltimore crowds though.
When I lived in DC, the round trip to Rehobeth Beach was just under the max daily mileage for Zip Cars. We would pack 5 in one and drive over for the day.
This is like reading about peasants who would go to Coney Island on the train in their bootblack clothes
I can see the car wrecks but I doubt there were significant deaths because people walked into a bad area of town
Didn’t realize those were links. Here’s the same story from the first link, not from a concealed carry site: https://fox59.com/news/indycrime/pr...town-anderson-appears-to-be-self-defense/amp/
