I'm about the biggest Pirates fan there is and I love the view the stadium provides of downtown, but it seems like every single home game someone posts the picture of their view...

Trying to form a friendly pick-up co-ed baseball league in my new pBGh home. You should play. by simply_nedin pittsburgh

I'm very interested, though my work schedule changes week by week which makes it hard for me to commit to anything too formal.

I get that he's a veteran and throwing a no-no, but why does he deserve help? by ATribeCalledGregin baseball

The Human Element. Justifying inaccuracy and unfairness since the start of the game!

The answer you're looking for is FIP.

What are some of your favorite lesser-known TV shows? by camputerin AskReddit

Cheap Seats. Best show ever.

What are some good guiding questions for a insightful and thorough discussion of a movie? by dontFeelLikeDancingin movies

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 0 points1 point ago

I like to just think about the script, namely alternative possibilities for it. Why do you think this character was included? How would things be differently without him/her? The same can then be said for scenes. What did we learn from this scene? How would our perception of the characters be different without it?

Then I start to think more about the editing, cinematography, and art direction. Is it a linear story? How would it be different if it was or wasn't? How does the pacing feel? Were there any unique shots or was it pretty bland? Was there much use of visually symbolism? Did the time of day, weather seem to amplify or reflect anything? Were there certain colors that seemed to mean something?

Not all movies will have something worthwhile to answer all of these questions with, but there is a lot of thought put into what goes on that screen, so it is worth really thinking things over to see if you pick up any patterns.

What's your favorite line and by what artist? by DGAAFin hiphopheads

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 0 points1 point ago

It's just funny. Gang Starr lyrics are usually deeper, about the rap game, street life, etc. so to just have some weird throwaway about lemonade makes me smile. And it's truthful too, I mean, people drank it then and they do now. Can't argue with that, but not sure why it needed to be said.

Baseball game rainout check? by wishanemin pittsburgh

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 2 points3 points ago

You'll probably hear it first on twitter by following them at @Pirates or if you're driving over, listen to 93.7 which is the station that carries their games.

You stay classy Saint Louis. by kah88in baseball

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 4 points5 points ago

That was really classy. I'm honored that as a Pirates fan, with the exception of the Braves making the playoffs, I will witness Chipper's final games in person.

What are some of your favorite in-song references/throwbacks to previous songs? by TheFlipanatorin hiphopheads

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 1 point2 points ago

Kanye West on the Through the Wire Freestyle referencing Get Low. "Through the Wire, to the wall, all my rhymes is raw. All these beats these beats these beats all of em coulda been lost"

Talib Kweli responding to Jay's "If skills sold truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically Talib Kweli" a year later with "If lyrics sold then truth be told, I'd probably be just as rich and famous as Jay Z."

Jay Electronica's Exhibit C how the intro is like Who Shot Ya. "As we proceed to give you what you need..."

And of course that Roman's Revenge track by Nicki and Eminem when they keep doing the Rah rah like a dungeon dragon I had to explain to everyone that that was from Busta on Scenario.

This is one of those topics that I'll think of a shitload more later.

EDIT: Oh and I just remembered, also on the Graduation album, Kanye references I Used to Love H.E.R. concept a line or two on Homecoming.

Men of reddit, honestly, what would your reaction be if a girl asked you on a date? by baripsterin AskReddit

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 280 points281 points ago

I would curse at her for breaking gender and social norms and burp in her face to assert my dominance.

Suggestions for a family friendly hotel near downtown? by Kicker774in pittsburgh

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 0 points1 point ago

The SpringHill Suites on the North Shore is a good bet. They even have a complimentary shuttle that services the downtown area if you aren't up for walking to the Aviary or Children's Museum, though they are pretty close.

LPT: Buy good tickets when Ticketmaster won't allow you to leave one empty seat. by mechtoniain LifeProTips

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 42 points43 points ago

Say each row has 10 seats. The only seats left are 8, 9, and 10. What he's saying is TicketMaster won't allow you to leave a seat all by itself, so if you wanted two tickets, it wouldn't let you purchase 8 and 9 together because 10 would be by itself. So when you're searching for the best available seats, even if 8-10 are clear and you only want two, it will automatically redirect you to seats further back so 10 doesn't get stuck alone.

What he's saying is go to nearly the point of no return with 1 seat (seat 8) and the system will mark it as taken (even though you haven't paid for it yet and therefore still have a chance to back out with no repercussions). So in that time when seat 8 is marked as taken, seats 9 and 10 are up for grabs as a pair to be purchased together.

Does that make it clearer?

Semi-related to seddit: Does anyone have a good guide to lifting weights/getting in shape? What do you do? by ecstaticMediumin seduction

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 0 points1 point ago

I do P90X. I like it. You can do it from home, you don't need much in terms of equipment (bands and a pull up bar really, most else is just optional). You can do it from home so that cuts time having to travel to the gym. It will tire you out, it's definitely not just some Wii Fit stuff. You will be worked, but they keep working different muscle groups so while you're tired you keep going. I really suggest it.

text and call response time for friends and people you already have a stable relationship with by [deleted]in seduction

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 2 points3 points ago

You're reading way too much into things. You seriously want internet advice on how long to text back if your guy friend texts you asking if you want to hit up a ball game or something?

Well said by P1TAin funny

[–]ATribeCalledGreg 0 points1 point ago

I wonder if it is possible to make a list of every celebrity crime that has happened since this. And yet it seems like everyone is over this but Redditors who are once again taking old jokes and running them into the ground.
