My cat's diet is now Osso bucco for breakfast, steamed white fish or tinned salmon for afternoon tea.
Does he bite me any less? No.

Invested $60 into project cars. Got $55 back because of exchange rates.
update: everything taken care of. After talking to the guy at the hotel who told me I was out of luck, I emailed customer support at Hyatt corporate and a week later the same guy at the hotel emailed me saying he refunded me the money. Not sure what happened behind the scenes but I assume they coughed up the dough and took up the issue with whoever messed up my confirmation (which is what should happen anyway).pirana6 wrote:

Got quoted $627 ($706 after taxes) for my hotel in San Diego. They charged me $940. I emailed and called few people and finally one got back to me and said essentially, "yeah we can't help you, it was a 'glitch' in our system" and I'm stuck paying the full $940. So now I'm stuck dealing with this for a while...
I have the confirmation email and everything so I'll probably get my money back, just will take a while.
Nobody here works semi high up at Hyatt do they?
they probably just forgot to apply whatever wedding discount there was. Nice that you got your money back though!
This shit should never happen at a hotel at that level. Staff are 'supposed' to be super nice and accommodating. Did they throw you a free night or something? they usually do for cock ups at this level.pirana6 wrote:

When the hotel guy called he said it was a "glitch" and there was nothing to be done but followed that up with a, "dude... if you ever come back to san diego, hit me up, I'll totally hook you up." He didn't say how or with what and god knows why I would go back to SD then immediately call the people who fucked up my stay the last time.
Know what really grinds my gears? National broadcasts of sporting events catering to the pussies on the west coast. 8:30 EST start times? I'll be asleep before halftime.

"primetime" is a concept lost on some...
I understand it, it just doesn't make sense. Either you miss the first half or I miss the end. Doesn't it make more sense to have everyone see the end?

It's almost a guarantee everyone on the west will miss the beginning if it starts at 3pm our time. It's not a guarantee everyone on the east will miss the end of it ends at 11pm your time.
haha bow down to your new west coast overlords. They should really change the opening of the NYSE too.
It's the NFL...they will do anything they want, and people will watch it.

Combat sports are the only ones I care about. One man vs one man. Can't blame your team or coach if you lose. If you lose to another man, it means he is better than you. Period.
uuuuh you can say the same about tennis and enjoy Devonshire cream and strawberries instead of thuggish bloodshed.SuperJail Warden wrote:

Tennis is a new sport with arbitrary rules. You know when a fight is over and who the winner is. It is the purest form of competition.
Combat is older than anything. You could compare fighters going back a thousand years. Hundreds of different disciplines and styles exist.

motogp will not be returning to Indianapolis and now the closest race is 17 hours away
every sport has arbitrary rules. it's what defines a sport or game above everyday mundane activities. rules, limits, play. you're telling me tennis has arbitrary rules but boxing doesn't? yeah right.SuperJail Warden wrote:

and like MMA has anything to do with actual combat. wrestling and forms of martial fighting do go back to ancient times, but then so does discus. you getting a little hard on over the sport's tenuous link to actual 'age of heroes' combat is just all so much homoerotic muchness.

You can't even compare fighters from one decade to another. Just like any sport, there are generational differences and evolution within the game itself. It's why historical comparisons of any kind are a little silly in sports. Sure, in a vacuum you can compare statistics like "total home runs hit" or "serve speed" or "average lap time" but there are so many factors that have changed in every sport that to say you could compare fighters (or any other sports figure) from one generation to another is the mental equivalent of running on a treadmill.
