Social media has destroyed integrity among our youth, they do the dumbest shite for likes and clicks and followers, it is nauseating

Very comfortably, probably over comfortably, especially when traveling for business, some of my coworkers like to wear their work clothes to maybe indicate they are traveling for business, but I don’t give a shite

I love my fiber Internet here, we get around 300 Mbps in our WiFi
… which is very fast for Wi-Fi, for those that don’t know

Tell us the types of things you are interested in doing, those are all fun cities, but each have their own vibe
For example….
Santa Fe has lots of art boutiques, coffeeshops, good restaurants, and is home to a very large gay population so it’s relatively safe
Scottsdale has a lot of high-end restaurants and expensive clothing stores to go shopping if that’s your thing. Golfing there is also top notch.

Restaurant R’evolution has a private chef's table for 2 in the kitchen. Ask to book the "Chef Folse’s Room". Thank me later
Gris Gris has nice chef's table
Cochon and Commander's palace also have chef's tables in the kitchen but I think they are for 4+ people. Worth calling them to see if they can do it for 2

Same thing happened to me, a younger coworker got married, and he was losing his mind around all the details and bullshite expenditures that his wife thought were necessary.
I simply told him that your guests don’t care about the flowers and placemats and special chairs…etc as much as you think they do.
Their wedding budget was $30,000 and they were gonna blow it all on the ceremony and fancy reception and not even take a honeymoon
I don’t know if it’s what I said or he just had an epiphany, but they ended up doing a very small wedding with friends and family only for $5k…and spent the $20,000 on a kick arse 10-day honeymoon in Tahiti…. And still had $5,000 left over.
When he got back, he told me it’s the best decision he’s ever made in his life, however, I don’t think many grooms would have the balls to stand up to their wife or even think the way he did
It is amazing how much money couples will spend on a wedding and really make it about impressing the guests and not just focusing on the wedding itself and themselves

It’s pretty simple, women overseas aren’t high maintenance or have all these fricking stupid unrealistic demands. The guy goes over there and takes a girl to dinner …or hell even to dessert … and they are extremely grateful, they want a lifelong partner, they want to feel important
The girls over here all about this “I’m a woman so you should worship me, I’m gonna dress like a slut, but expect to be treated like a princess” attitude.
I lived in Singapore for almost a year, and I can tell you that unless she comes from a billionaire family, girls over on that side of the world are very humble, and they are grateful when a guy asks them on a date

If they don't catch an early flight to Cancun, they will burn a day traveling there (and another day traveling back) so they may want to stay another night.
3 nights sounds great on paper but people often don't take into account how long it can take to get from your house to the hotel itself (flight time, customs, immigration, waiting at baggage claim, waiting on your taxi/Uber/transfer, the drive to hotel, check in process, etc.) The airport there is CRAZY busy and is not known for being efficient with baggage claim.
