I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
I once saw the slutty cirque du soliel there. I like all cirques but this one was the slutty one. Before the show there were two very large valkyrie twins passing out chocolate stawberries, harassing people, and being a little slutty. One bent waaaaaay over me to give chocolate to a dude a row up and I got a face full of cow tits. My mom was with me :/

Good show tho.

Why'd you take your mom to a sleezy cirque?

Ya know that's a good point. I dunno. Weird. I mean we both like cirque? But that's not a very good excuse is it. I guess it just wasn't slutty enough to really worry about until titties in face happened. Anyway she was thesbian enuf to handle it.

Yep! It's a really small moat from what I saw. All of the hotels are really packed together, but supposedly it wasn't always like that but there has been a lot of construction over the last decade.

nah this was 2011, and there was only 5 players at the table so i was lucky to hang in enough to catch a break then bail with how that poo poo was going. i was at a 2/4 table and some one of the players was like HEY ANYONE WANT TO PLAY 5/10 OR 10/20 and i was like EHHH SURE and like 30 minutes later they had scrounged up enough people to at least make a table for it. most of the time i usually stick to 2/4 or 5/10 or similar but i was feeling extra-drunk that day. typically i can scrounge up an extra $200 or $300 in vegas doing that.

Any city in the midwest is probably better to live in than actually visit. Because there is nothing to do if you are visiting one of the midwest flyover cities.

Kabuto on W Spring Mountain. In the same shopping plaza is Raku, an amazing Japanese robata place, and Monta Ramen which is no joke the best Ramen I've had outside of Japan.

In front and in the mall inside

The Venetian also has at the current time the best run poker room in Vegas but some of the things they do lead to low game variety relative to the number of tables and attract a lot of the grindy tight locals

Kabuto is top notch

Monta is very good

If Spring Mountain didn't exist I'd have a much lower opinion of Vegas overall and if I live there again I'll likely stay on the west side of I5 rather than the East just for that.

where do you currently live s-g?

i interviewed for a decent job at the airport back in 2006. two of the three people that interviewed me were originally from chicago (same as me) and told me at the end that they were both planning on moving back. something about the lack of culture and climate in vegas. they also told me to rent east of the strip because you wouldn't have to contend with the strip traffic. it seemed like everything was at least $1000 for a 1br with the assumption that a tweaker wouldn't kick your door down at 5 am. also, it was at the height of the housing bubble and i remember driving around the southwestern most expanse of the city seeing two to three bedroom townhomes going for 600-700k.

lol, no thanks.

Also if you don't care about driving up and down the strip, there is a back road on both sides of the strip that only cab drivers and locals use, can get anywhere on the strip pretty fast.

haha one morning my cabbie started driving loops back there behind Aria or whatever to jack up the fare, I called his poo poo and walked the rest of the way, was basically there anyways

This is all true. I plan on moving when I eventually trade up jobs. My apartment is too expensive just to be in a safe neighborhood and I really don't care for the culture here.

Shuttles man. If you're gonna travel anywhere on the strip take a shuttle. Or that neat monorail system they put in. It's really cool that the platforms and the walkways leading to the monorail have water misters for when it's hot as balls out there. :3:

I took my parents to see The Lion King a few years ago, stayed in a nice room at the Mandalay Bay and ate chicken wings on the cheap. Rooms for my parents and I were $140 but they forgot to bill us for one and comped the other 'cause my rowdy dad gambled for hours without going in the red. Then we went to Kmart and bought a microwave.

nice trip, thanks vegas

Ah yes, the monorail. Such a long walk to get to the loading platform, its probably shorter to just walk to where you are going on the strip.

My wife and I were wandering the strip, rolling balls, one evening, and we got to wondering, "who the hell are these people bringing small children? There's drunks and druggies and crime and sex everywhere, and these people are out with small children just walking through the middle of it. Are they bad parents? Are they looking to trade these babies for drugs?"

Thanks to your post, I now know that the answer is "spergy, oblivious, buzzkills who are trying to place the town on a rating list of cities in Arizona." So, mystery solved, thanks.

I lived in Arizona at the time, so it was just a 2-hour car drive, park it for the weekend, and take taxis everywhere cuz gently caress driving in that "drive it like you're renting it, cuz you are!" shitstorm.
