Won’t reiterate what everyone has already said about the weather and seats. But I echo the other poster’s sentiment about Nisei Lounge and Gman Tavern. Great bars and not as heavy on the 20 something’s, if you catch my drift. I’d also recommend Guthrie’s, which is on Addison, about 10 minutes from W...

Lots of great responses in this thread. I also would say that as we know, society has become increasingly impatient over the last 25 years with the advent of technology. Everyone wants everything NOW. And long term investing is a grind, even for those who are dedicated to it. I max my 401k, ...

The Chiefs fans on this board have become completely insufferable. ...

For us, much of our enjoyment is centered around travel, eating/drinking, going to sporting events and concerts. If anything, given we won'...

[quote]I'm the opposite. Once May rolls around I start dreading it knowing it's going to be swamp arse until almost Halloween.[/quote] Same for me. I'm one of the rare birds that actually enjoys the short days and gray skies. I find the winter to be incredibly peaceful, for whatever reason. I w...
