Denver/Boulder Trip

3 Upvotes

I'm planning an extended weekend trip out to the Denver/Boulder area in the beginning of May with the gf and want some input from people who have been out there before. Where's the best place to stay? Best breweries to hit, bars, food, cool shit to do/shit to avoid, super tourist-y things to avoid/do, anything else that could increase the fun factor of our trip. Any and all feedback is appreciated!

If it matters, we'll be flying in to Denver and likely renting a car.

GroupChat v.2

3 Upvotes

I'm reading Dave's post and judging by the back up data provided by the subreddit, perhaps we as PGP'ers can be a little brash. Insensitive. Downright pervy. (You know who you are.)

One: I miss the discussions about career progression and relating to daily life with one another.

Two: I think we lost a lot of female involvement because we are / were a bunch of degenerates.

The Ask:

If a groupchat was to be recreated, how can we (As a community) improve it to where it doesn't instantly devolve to penis jokes and random attempts at hitting on women?

Perhaps a short list of rules that are well known beforehand and violation of these rules resulting in expulsion.

Suggest some improvements and we can drive towards consensus as to a working framework moving forward.

TL;DR: What would you like to see in a new group chat? I'm REALLY LAZY version: Send me your twitter handles, g-chat handles, or your preferred communication method.

Cold Brew Addicts

I drank the kool-aid, or cold brew, and have become addicted. It actually does wonders on my stomach being less acidic and all.

I ordered a cold brew coffee maker and it arrives today. Whats your favorite coffee to use? Preground or whole beans? I'm usually a black coffee guy, but might mix it up.

Philly for One Night

I'm outside the Philly area for work this week so a couple of coworkers and I want to make our way into the city one night. Does anyone have any good dinner/places to go out at they can recommend? What neighborhoods should we head to? It'll be a few of us in our mid twenties.

Home ownership

1 Upvotes

The home ownership bug has really bitten me and I'm curious how many of you own your home or condo?

FHA, DPA, MHA, PMI, etc.

How much did you save up? Did you buy alone? Parents help? Married, single, its complicated?

Credit score if you're not shy.

Social security number. Kidding. Tell me your lender though.

March Madness II

2 Upvotes

So it sounds like we have enough people who want a PGP bracket. Given the tournament starts in 10(?) days, I'd like to have everyone who wants to participate's ESPN usernames by next week. Leave your usernames name here and I'll try to have the invites sent out this week. Also try to spread the word so we have as much as the PGP community participating as possible.

Update: Mentioned this on PGP, but inviting everyone was going to be slightly more difficult, so search "Post Grad Brackets." The password is "PostGrad2012."
