    am i weird for going to the mall every weekend to meet people?

    i’m 20 and i work from home so my social life is essentially nonexistent, but i’ve been living on this side of town for a few years now and one of my favorite places to frequent is the woodlands mall.

    i go there almost every weekend in hopes of befriending at least one person but that never actually happens. instead, i get stared at and receive a few compliments on my looks here and there, all surface level encounters. i also don’t have the courage to approach others first, so i just shop around and leave.

    i’m thinking of going again in a few hours but it’s starting to feel pointless and repetitive. i just want friends

    Is this a legit police vehicle?

    This vehicle is parked on the southbound side of 45. There are no other markings other than “police” and there are black curtains inside the vehicle. The license plate isn’t exempt. Seems suspicious. Has anyone else seen a police vehicle that looks like this?

    100.3 Rodeo Cookoff Bands

    This might be a long shot but my friends and I are trying to score Saturday night wristbands to The Bull honky tonk for Megan Moroney for our best friends birthday.

    This year they changed it to where you don’t get to choose the nights and get whatever night they call.

    We currently have a set for Thursday and Friday and wanted to see if anyone had won Saturday that they want to trade for! We’re hoping we can surprise her since she loves Megan! TIA!

    Any Massage Therapists/Chiropractors for Weightlifters in Houston?

    I've been having joint pain in my left knee for quite some time for doing squats. I'm on a weight-loss journey this year, but are there any massage areas in Houston you recommend to alleviate the pain? Running becomes a pain because the area of inflammation goes from the bottom left area of my back down to my left knee.

    Or do I need a chiropractor in this case?

    Favorite ramen place?

    Looking for recommendations on a good ramen spot in Houston proper, no Katy/Bellaire/Cypress nonsense please. Tomorrow’s my birthday and I’d love to grab some good pork ramen but I’d like to try somewhere other than Jinya’s which is my normal go to. Thanks in advance!

    MRIs in Houston

    Hello everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me out. I have a procedure scheduled at the end of February for an exploratory laparoscopy to look for endometriosis. I am due to have a pelvic MRI done before the surgery, however it is needed with vaginal and recital contrast and not many places do that. I was sent to Texas Children’s and they were out of network with my insurance wanted to charge $5k minimum which i cannot afford. Does anyone know any other places that use vaginal/rectal contrast and if so which location? I’m okay with traveling to have this done.

    Is there somewhere within driving distance that you can stay at some luxury cabins in the woods?

    Thinking kind of like Broken Bow cabins, but maybe a bit closer. Looking for somewhere I could spend an anniversary with my wife with a hot tub out in the woods in some isolation.

    Thanks!

    What are the best things to do for a family visiting Houston for the first time?

    Hey y’all! We are taking the family to Houston Texas for Valentine’s Day weekend. This is the first time any of us have ever been to Texas. We’re from FL and spend a lot of time outdoors hiking, camping and fishing. I really wanted to give my three kids an experience they’ll never forget in Texas. So from an insiders perspective, what are your favorite things to do in Houston?

    Nail Salon in Houston

    Does anyone know any nail salons that do similar designs to these? My girlfriend is used to getting her nails done at Korean gel nail places in Toronto. She is in Houston with me for a few months and wants to get her nails done the same way she gets them back home.

    Saw a shooting star/fireball

    Leaving the IAH airport. 5:22am. Anyone else see? My dashcam was pointed kinda downwards so didn’t catch all of it, quality not too great either, but was crazy to see!! Came into my field of vision, burst in a bigger light, then continued to fall and shrink until it was gone. Had a trail of greens light.

    Who is Houston's very best acoustic guitar technician?

    My daddy passed away right before my 18th birthday, and I have his Martin D12-28. It needs work, but I only want it worked on by the very best. Who is currently the very best in the Houston area? I used to get my guitars worked on by Kevin Perry at Great Southern Music, but it doesn't look like they're in business anymore.

    Are there any dealers that offer the IRS used EV tax credit transfer at point-of-sale?

    For reference, I'm located in North Houston. I'm looking around for a used Bolt EV or EUV, but every time I inquire about a potential tax credit, the car is either not eligible (i.e. more than one previous owner) or that particular dealer isn't registered to be able to accept a credit transfer, thus making it not as enticing of a deal anymore. I would have to do the transfer since I have basically no use for the tax credit at tax time.

    Why is there no shipleys in Bastrop, TX?

    Just moved there and apparently they have no Shipleys donut!!

    This place is giving me cherry iced donut withdrawals.

    I will be visiting to Houston soon and wanted some spots that will quench my cravings.

    Sometimes I go to a shipleys and the donuts are horrible, some locations they’re perfect.

    Why is that?

    Anyone here go to the Fiesta Mart #8 off of Wirt Rd in NW Houston and eat at the Chinese food place inside years ago?

    They closed up shop a long time ago after the store's renovation. I really miss their noodles. I wonder if they just closed up forever or moved to a different location. Hopefully someone knows.

    Looking for a good Korean restaurant to celebrate a birthday. Located in NW Houston but willing to drive. I'm looking for someplace that is a nice place to sit down and have dinner, and I want a menu sort of like Hanshin Pocha.
