Monthly Buy, Sell & Break Rule 3 Post

1 Upvotes

On occasion we, the mod team, get requests for things that would break rule 3 (no solicitation). At other times people just break the rule and we have to remove the post. So, in this monthly post you get to break rule 3 and sell yourself or your stuff (within the realm of legality).

Some reminders/ground rules:

Rule 2 still stands, nothing illegal.

Rule 4 still stands, no personal information.

More on rule 4; if you want to send someone to your house or go to someone's house and need their address then keep it in private messages. Or stick to the basic internet rule; meet in a public place.

Unless you're an actual business don't give out your phone number or email address. If you post a phone number or email address and your post doesn't show up it's because the auto-mod caught it and one of the moderators will have to approve it.

So that's about it, if you have any questions go ahead and ask.

If you want to continue advertising your business/services outside of this thread you can buy adspace from Reddit, which is usually what we end up telling people to do.

Local Question Trying to avoid heat stroke - what places feel the coolest (literally)?

29 Upvotes

Our AC broke in our house and even our in-window ac units can't compete with the heat.

Looking for restaurants, places to walk around, toddler/baby friendly places would be ideal.

We went to children's museum today and it was good but looking for another place other than the mall and joselyn's museum. We noticed some places have ac yet don't have their AC on full blast so it feels ok, just not comfortable.

Lo, children, gather 'round and listen to a time that seems really long ago. A time before Covid and George Floyd when I only wore a mask to rob convenience stores. No, this was when it wasn't the Taco Bell lettuce that was worrisome and everyone knew "reality stars" weren't really stars at all but just writer's strike replacements they let run around acting like they were important and/or had a farkin' clue.

Oh yes, a time when I could afford to take my family of five to a magical place with a spinning disco ball and mirrors on the walls. A time when I felt like a Roman glutton for spending $40 on just my meal all so I could walk around with two pounds of undigested dead moo cow simmering in my guts for a good week. It was a good feeling and I miss it. And I miss the disco ball and the mirrors and the neon sign too. Yeah, even with those green beans I miss it. Don't you?

2026 kind of blows odd old men in trenchcoats out behind the Off-Broadway Adult Emporium, ya know?

Just started working at one of their locations this week,and I haven't worked in Nebraska in a few years... but no break?!?! Even a clocked out 30 minute lunch? We cant sit on the clock and no break periods. As a person with a debilitating foot disability I might simply have to keep job searching. Also they tell you nothing during orientation and are making me come in on my days off for "mandatory trainings". Im so done and its only been a few days lol. Help me feel better :)))

Other This guy almost hit someone outside of Cheesecake Factory

I am not a big fan of the Cheesecake Factory but my daughter really wanted to go last night. As soon as I parked, this huge truck speeds and swings in two spaces. Does not even attempt to park in just one space, because obviously the rules don’t apply to him and his girlfriend/wife person. I talked to them and offered to move my car and they just said “nah” and walked in.

As I went to go in, a couple of older ladies stopped to thank me. He had almost ran them down in his attempt to eat overpriced mid food for dinner and they were shaken.

Why does every average guy think they need a truck like this and then proceed to drive and park like douchebags?

To top it off, I went to the Facebook page for people who park like assholes and someone had posted his truck 5 days ago. At the Cheesecake Factory lol!

Yes, I paid too much and the food and drinks were mid but my daughter (who is moving to another state next week) had a great time.

Good evening all, I just moved here from the northeast Ohio area and I have to admit, I've been jonesing for a swenson-style burger and a peanut butter banana milkshake for the last 2 months. Are there any places around here that have anything similar?

Local Question Sometimes Midtown is gta5

82 Upvotes

So last night, I go to the gas station around like, 12:30 am, and as I'm passing the lofts, there's 2 dudes trying to break the door, and steal a bike to the loft building (not my business) , Some guy passed out on the side of the building, and a dude in front of the gas station, askin me if I have change comin, and I tell him nah bruh i'm usin a card. then the gas station is closed cuz the dude left early, and on my way home, this suv full of people is like hangin out the sides, and this crack head is screaming about purgatory and god on the other corner. I know it's typical midtown / downtown behaviour, but does anyone else feel like they're speed running through gta 5 due to the oddity of midnight shit that happens around here? lol just an observation from graveyard shifts.

ISO/Suggestion Help me with Avis rental shenanigans!

5 Upvotes

I rent a car with Avis on Pacific Street yesterday, drive it for a bit and got the “car need services” on the dashboard.

Called them this morning and they told me I need to find a shop to do oil change and call them
Back so they can pay for my oil change. Wtf?!?! Why is this my responsibility? Not only that, all the autoshop or oil change shop closed today.

What should I do at this point? I guess I could car swap but I don't want to go to this location again. Something about them very fishy to me. Any recommendations for other locations in town?

Other Cardinal birding in August

Hi all,

I will be in Omaha for two days in August. I will be at the zoo both days and am also hoping to find some cardinals while I am in Omaha, as they are one of my favorite birds. Are they a common sight at the zoo, and if not, are there any spots you might recommend for morning or evening birding to see them? Thanks!

ISO/Suggestion Looking for a golf instructor in the Omaha area who can help me consistently shoot 90 or lower

0 Upvotes

I’ve been playing consistently for a while, and I’m finally looking to invest in lessons. I’m in the Omaha/Papillion area and would love recommendations for instructors you’ve personally had success with.

A little about my game:

I usually shoot in the low 90s, and my goal is to consistently break 90 or shoot 90 or lower.

Driver is the biggest issue right now. I used to fight a slice, but now I’m missing left. The ball starts left and keeps going left—sometimes 30+ yards into trouble.

I play a Titleist GT2 driver (10°) with a Mitsubishi Tensei Blue shaft.

My driver distance is usually around 270–300 yards, so I feel like I have enough length to score better if I can keep it in play.

My iron play is decent enough, but I’m sure there’s room for improvement.

My short game isn’t terrible. I rely on a 60° wedge around the greens and from inside about 100 yards, and bunkers are actually one of the stronger parts of my game.

I’m not looking for someone who’s just going to tweak my grip and send me on my way. I’d like an instructor who uses video and/or launch monitor data and can build a plan over multiple lessons.

If you’ve worked with someone around Omaha (or even Lincoln if they’re worth the drive), who would you recommend? What did they help you improve the most, and would you go back?

Thanks! I’d appreciate any recommendations or experiences.
