Restaurant pet peeve

Posted by thadcastle on 9/8/24 at 6:57 pm

What drives me crazy though is a place that tries to be fancy and ask you what temperature you want your burger for them to only give you a well done burger. Why are you going to ask me if when I order medium y...

re: Are there any services that will play a slot machine at a casino for you?

Posted by thadcastle on 9/6/24 at 1:24 pm

A lot of people like the slots and just can't get to them. Also, if you've been drinking it would keep people from driving to ...

Does anyone here have a wife that votes/has extremely different political views?

Posted by thadcastle on 8/22/24 at 2:08 pm

I try not to take politics into every aspect of my life but I imagine this would be a difficult year for a household where a husband and wife have different political views. Everyone keeps saying Trump needs to reclaim the white suburban women so there must be quite a few of you out there. ...

How is Argentina doing these days?

Posted by thadcastle on 8/16/24 at 8:15 am

I posted this on the poli board but I am assuming no one there had any first hand experience so I thought I would bring it to the OT. After 8 months of Milei I wonder how it is going. Articles seem somewhat positive but also lots of mixed reviews. Anyone have any knowledge from locals how it is goin...

I hope Milei is able to reel everything in and the country just explodes with economic prosperity. It would be hard to argue against if he has incredible success.
