Frisco and McKinney appreciation at 3.8-4.2% shows north DFW is still the growth corridor. People are moving farther north for affordability.

Capital One in Plano is a legit tech company that happens to do banking. Their engineering culture is strong and they pay competitively with pure tech companies.

It'll Do Club has one of the best sound systems in the Southwest. If you're into house and techno, nowhere else in DFW compares.

Filed a TX AG complaint against a home security company that wouldn't let me cancel. AG's office contacted them. Contract cancelled within 2 weeks. The AG letterhead works.

Brisket egg rolls are NOT overhyped. Genuinely elite.

Hotter'N Hell Hundred is the most Texas thing in fitness. 100 miles on a bike in Wichita Falls in AUGUST. It's insane and everyone should do it once.

When someone asks where you're from and you say "Dallas" even though you live in Plano/Frisco/Irving/Garland because nobody outside Texas knows those cities.

Hinge in Uptown Dallas is 90% finance bros and nurses. And somehow it works.

Skipping comprehensive in DFW is playing Russian roulette. One hail storm and your car is totaled. Learned the hard way in 2023.

The big game criticism is valid but overstated. He scored in the Champions League final. He scored in the FA Cup final. He performs when it matters most.

PowerToChoose.org should be required viewing for every DFW resident. I was paying $0.16/kWh for 2 years because I never checked. Switched to $0.09/kWh and save $80/month.

The tanking argument alone justifies the play-in. Before it existed, 8-10 teams started actively losing in February. Now teams 9-12 are fighting for something in March. That is better basketball.

The toll road thing blindsided me. I commute on PGBT and DNT daily. $180/month in tolls. That's $2,160/year nobody mentions.

The Fuel City longhorn experience at 2 AM is a Dallas rite of passage. Tacos + actual longhorn cattle behind a gas station. Nowhere else.

2021 was a trauma event for DFW. We had no power for 4 days and pipes burst in every unit of our apartment complex. I now keep 10 gallons of water stored at all times.

Filed in JP court for $1,200 deposit. Landlord showed up, had no documentation. Judge awarded me $3,700 (3x + penalty). The system works if you follow the steps.

This post made me angry in the best way. Huckaby's work is MUSEUM LEVEL and Fort Worth treats him like a secret. Shameful.

The hail damage thing is not a joke. My car insurance premium in DFW is 40% more than when I lived in Ohio and the HAIL is why.

CUTX gave me a 5.9% auto loan when Capital One offered 7.8% for the same car. Credit union auto loans are always the first place to check.

O'Malley cannot fight off his back for 25 minutes. Merab will drown him with pressure. Pace kills precision every time.

Filed the day I was laid off from a tech company in Plano. First payment arrived in 3 weeks. If I had waited even a week, it would have been 4-5 weeks.

World Financial Group recruited hard at my church in Arlington. Promised "financial freedom." My friend signed up, spent $2,000 on licensing and materials, made $0 in 8 months.

Looked up my favorite taco spot on the Dallas County portal. Score of 68. Four consecutive inspections with critical temperature violations. I eat somewhere else now.

Adrian Newey at Aston Martin is the biggest variable. The man has won championships with Williams, McLaren, and Red Bull. If anyone can nail a regulation change, it is him.

Watch any Luka Doncic game and tell me he does not get calls that would be no-calls for a bench player. Same drive, same contact, different whistle. It is obvious.

Exall Park is the answer. Saturday morning pickup there is the best basketball in DFW outside of organized leagues. Show up ready to play.
