Makes me think of the “My name’s Buck and I’m here to fuck” scene in Kill Bill.

Jerruh is an idiot for building his stadium along a SW-NE axis.

He should’ve built it along a NW-SE axis instead. Sure, he would’ve had to slide the stadium a little further west toward Collins Street, but it would’ve meant one less reason for him to be the laughingstock of the league.

He could still maybe salvage it if he put some good tinting on the SW windows.

If you like Museums:

  • Museum of Fine Arts (1001 Bissonnet St)
  • Houston Museum of Natural Science (5555 Hermann Park Dr)
  • The Menil (1533 Sul Ross St)

Space Center Houston (the tourist wing of NASA’s Johnson Space Center) is a great place to visit.

If you like big spectacle places, see if you can take a tour of Minute Maid Park (Astros baseball stadium) or NRG Stadium (Texans football stadium).

If you enjoy live theater, options include:

  • The Hobby Center (800 Bagby St)
  • The Alley Theater (615 Texas Ave)
  • Stages (800 Rosine St)

If you think you’ll have the appetite for it, there are lots of good dining options at every price point from a wide variety of culinary traditions. Try some bbq (if you’re from Saudi there are at least some halal bbq options, we have a pretty sizeable halal crowd). Try some Texmex restaurants. Try a pho restaurant. Try a taco truck.

Take a tour of the Hermann Park Zoo (6200 Hermann Park Dr). It’s a big damn zoo with a lot to see. You could also head down to Galveston and visit the Moody Gardens (1 Hope Blvd in Galveston). They have a giant rainforest pyramid and a giant aquarium pyramid. There are a lot of good dining options in Galveston but I don’t know offhand whether any of them are explicitly halal.

Good luck with your visit. The Texas Medical Center has some of the best medical care in the world. I hope you kick cancer’s ass.

Lemmy for scratching the reddit itch

Facebook (by way of a disabled account) for archiving pictures of now-deceased family members

Discord, if it counts as social media, for tracking guilds for a game I used to be addicted to, also servers for subreddits I used to frequent & servers maintained by some of the fanfiction authors I follow

Knock knock

Who’s there?

Who.

Who who?

You’re making a good owl!

My parents told me this was my favorite joke when I was around your daughter’s age. Apparently I used the joke non-stop and my parents still laughed every time because of how much I cracked up at my own joke.

Feeling your butt cheeks on the toilet seat just before you lose the battle to hold everything in.

Ned is a lucky bastard, I’ve never gotten to hold more than two kittens at the same time.
