  • I watched the first 3 episodes of Servant last night on Apple TV+.

     

    Uhhh...it's fucking weird. I'll keep going.

  • Keen's Steakhouse is also right there in the area. I've never been, but supposedly it's an NYC staple.

  • I worked in Midtown West for years. This was one of my regular happy hour spots. Japanese BBQ. I've never actually done the BBQ, but all the food I've had was solid.

  • It's not like it's mandatory. Several have already declined. If it wasn't Ibiza I'd be out. I've heard so much about it and the party culture, I've been wanting to go for years. Timing is just off for me. I have no issues with flat out saying no...I've done it several times in the past.

    My problem is when they get offended and bent out of shape when someone declines. I had a friend do that when I couldn’t make his bachelor party. Fuck those people.

  • Need to be more specific, you have so many options in and close to that area. 

    Carmine's (family style Italian) is a place I've been to a few times and would recommend. It's great for groups.

  • If I wasn't in the wedding party I'd decline.

    They just got engaged before Xmas, date set right after, now bachelor party is in motion. I've always wanted to go, but fuck...not right now. I'm on accrual vaca system at work so my hope was to be conservative in my first year. I fear I'll be in the red instead of banking days to roll over.

  • Anyone getting ripped? Winter bulking? Staying fat?

    I curbed rock climbing for a bit. I sprained my hand/wrist in November the pain/stiffness has been hanging around because I didn't address it after it happened. I was instructed to splint it for 4 weeks so that's where I'm at.

    I'm going on a serious snowboarding trip in a month, so I'm a bit nervous. My legs are weak, so I've been hitting cardio and lower body workouts hard AF for the last two weeks. It's been going well, but super boring.

  • I'm going to Ibiza in May. Bachelor party and I'm in the wedding. Complaining just to complain, but it's a bit exessive for a bachelor party. Also insanely expensive, but should be a blast.

  • Holy shit what kind of lavish shower costs 8k?

    I just helped my dad finish a shower install over the Xmas holiday. If you're even somewhat handy, you could probably handle most if not all yourself....especially if you go with a kit.

  • I used Duolingo for months. Didn't really help. Just frustrated the hell out of me. 

    Pimsleur is the only thing that really helped regarding being conversational. 

    When I say effort, I mean a book, class, instructor. I just need to know the basics in a classroom environment and then go from there.

  • I moved to NYC on a whim without a job in the fall of '09 and I'm still here. That's definitely my biggest/most notable accomplishment. When I came here I just said "fuck it", because I was running out of job options in Ohio. On my 4th job here. 7 years, 1.5 years, 1 year, 3 months and ongoing. This is my best by far in all aspects. 

    4 different apartments. 

    I've become an uncle and now live with my gf. First time living with a SO. It's been good, but challenging.
