(I live to... satisfy, thank you).
Come to think of it - I don't think I ever hung out with proper hockey fans, but I also lost all interest in watching the sport (along with basketball) about 25 years ago.

> We have our little differences, but buying out another team's fan bar for their Superbowl, causing a scene at their bar, or being violent is just classless as hell.
Sounds like you clearly don't know any "real" Eagles fans then.
The word in the hospitality industry that NFL "fans" are a whole different sports crowd from, let's say, soccer (and not in the best way).

I vaguely remember there was a controversy associated with her name some time ago, way before she was running for mayor - anyone remembers from the top of their head?
In the meantime - I can't wait for more dirt slinging click baiting headlines; bring it on now.

Garbage.
Overpriced food, literal NYC prices, and portions are super small. Never again.

Reply to comment by mortgagepants in Son of top Philadelphia police union official charged with possessing a stolen gun by redeyeblink
I don't know whom you are referring to, but just possessing an illegal gun and possessing an illegal gun during a crime are two completely different charges, no? Sentence should fit the offense, but in general I agree that book should be thrown at anyone who had an illegal firearm on them. Countries like Sweden and Japan don't fuck around with that (or drugs) whatsoever, but it's not the first world country we are talking about here.
The article said he's got top of the line lawyers, and with no priors he'll likely get off (IANAL, though), the case will be buried, and there will be no example made (I mean - smaller fish beats those charges on the daily, you really expect DA to stick it to a high profile police official's family?)
Additionally, I'll be predicting Powerball numbers at 11, stay tuned.

About 1500 square feet two bedroom apartment (EDIT: now that I think about it, it was smaller, probably 1100-1200 range, actually), electric heat with poorly insulated windows, the place on 70F for a month and ran about $700-800.
And that was over a decade ago, now could be even more.
Every next place I looked for had to have any other kind of heat but electric (don't care for AC - how we say in the old country: "it's better to sweat seven times than to freeze once").

The word was that for GSW and serious trauma they were the best place in the city (since they statistically saw more).
Silver lining.

Dave Kiss books some local bands (check out his socials) and already mentioned Century Bar.
Spoiler alert: most of local bands are absolute and total and utter garbage until you are about 3-4 PBR tallboys in.

Report fraud to your credit card company ASAP as possible.
The Yelp review of the place in Philly goes all the way back to 2019 with a similar story (and the place is said to be out of business).

Tell me you are just starting out in the industry without telling me you are just starting out in the industry.
Also - if you are good at something, never do it for free; but you do you, fam.

Yeah, you completely lost me. Don't lay out "facts" like this, when your main source of propaganda is US mainstream media, and you seemingly have little to no understanding of what's been going on in that particular region in the best part of last 100 years.
I am embarrassed to have been a part of this conversation.

> But I'd prefer my taxes going to something like this over $50B going to Ukraine.
By what I've heard it was way over $120B ($3B more was announced this week), and it hasn't been a full year yet (you can google it yourself, there are different numbers being floated around, but it's mos def over $100B by now).
(You are also comparing spending money on saving people's lives to spending money to have more people die).

Had some late last year, ate it within 30 minutes of buying it, it was dry AF, I’ve had much better ones as leftovers the next day.
Not worth the trip, and mos def not to die for.
