Keep your repair orders organized chronologically. The TxDMV examiner will want to see the pattern clearly.

BBB ratings are meaningless. A company can have an A+ rating and dozens of complaints. Look at the COMPLAINTS, not the letter grade.

Baylor Garland ER wait times are insane. Took my kid there with a 104 fever and waited 2 hours and 40 minutes. Never again. Lake Pointe is closer to Rowlett anyway.

As a viewer, I watch every Thursday game because it is football and I am an addict. But even I admit the product is noticeably worse. More sloppy play, more blowouts.

Martin House Sour Pickle Beer is either the best or worst beer you'll ever try. There is no middle ground. I love it.

The 2am Whataburger run transcends alcohol. Sober or not, that Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit hits the same.

SB 1264 saved me from a $9,000 surprise anesthesiologist bill at a Baylor ER. I only owed my in-network copay.

Kent & Co in Fort Worth is doing natural wine RIGHT. If you're into natural/biodynamic wines, this is the spot.

September in DFW is the cruelest month because everyone else in the country is posting fall content and we're still dying.

You know multiple routes to everywhere because WHICH highway is backed up determines your entire day.

Mid-cities having "no personality" is mean but accurate. Irving and Grand Prairie exist for commute convenience and nothing else.

Lula B's in Oak Cliff is amazing for furniture. Furnished half my apartment there for under $500.

the seminar guilt trip is SO real lmao. "professor ricardo from brazil is coming next saturday, $75, mandatory attendance." mandatory for who?? i already pay you $200/month

Being polite while asserting your rights is the key. "I respect you, officer, but I do not consent to a search" is the sentence that protects you.

A single organizing body will never happen because the belts are controlled by corrupt organizations that profit from fragmentation. The WBA, WBC, IBF, and WBO will never give up their sanctioning fees.

TDLR complaint process is straightforward and they actually investigate. Filed against an unlicensed contractor, TDLR referred it to the AG for enforcement.

A bond election is overdue. Rowlett HS needs updated science labs and athletic facilities. The building was built in 1978 and it shows in some areas. I'll vote yes if the money is clearly targeted.

The plays Mahomes makes that are not in the stat sheet -- the no-look passes, the behind-the-back flips, the plays where he is falling down and still throws a strike. Nobody has ever done that.

the real answer is go try 3-4 free classes at different gyms and pick the one where you feel least uncomfortable. lineage matters but culture matters more for retention

The answer changes depending on which part of Austin you're in.

the hidden cost of competitions adds up FAST. entry fee + IBJJF annual + gas + food + usually a hotel if its in houston or austin. i probably spent $1500 on competing last year on top of my monthly membership

The timeshare 6-day cancellation in Texas is longer than most states (3 days). If you just signed one, you have time. Exercise it immediately.

The Knot and WeddingWire reviews can be gamed. Cross-reference with Google reviews. If they have 5 stars on The Knot and 3 stars on Google, the Google reviews are more honest.

i drive from Longview to Tyler to train and its worth the trip. east texas doesnt have many options so when you find a good gym you commit to it

The VIP signup hack at Allen is real. I got 25% off my entire purchase during my birthday month. Saved $80.

If you have a large dog (70lb+), your options drop significantly. Start your search early and call ahead.
