LIR: clubhouse. Reddit unveiled their clone today -- (link) - oblique Apr 19, 12:39 4

    - city proper is a pretty useless and nonsensical issue - big pet peeve of mine, I'll readily admit -- nm - o-reo Apr 19, 13:01 2
      - If you've been to Fort Lauderdale, you haven't been to Miami. If you've been to Arlington, TX, you haven't been to Dallas or Fort Worth. -- nm - ty97 Apr 19, 13:03 1
        
        Tru dat. I was thinking more about how it affects what goes into a top whichever number ranking. Jacksonville is much less of a regional metropolis - o-reo Apr 19, 13:12

  - You think I'd be camping? Bwahahahaha, you fool. - ty97 Apr 19, 12:24 3
    - It's been probably 40 years since I've been there, but you could be hard pressed to find a MickeyDs there. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 19, 12:28 2
      - ha, I'd guess there are none in the park. -- nm - ty97 Apr 19, 12:29 1
        
        (I mean, there shouldn't be any in the park, let's be honest) -- nm - ty97 Apr 19, 12:29
- Yet another pandemic symptom, just like my clam chowder craving? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 19, 12:22 6

    - Oh, I bet ST can help with that. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 19, 12:24 4
      - unfortunately some of the best spots in the US are.. "outdoorsy" -- nm - colin Apr 19, 12:38 3
