Dallas Q&A

Every day, I walk 15 minutes to reach my bus stop in Dallas. Most days, I cross paths with people walking their dogs. Some people try to tug on their leash, maybe out of consideration so the dog doesn't jump on me. Other times, a dog would be curious enough and want to sniff me. I really want to let the dog come close to me and pet the dog but I hesitate because I don't want to bother people. The older men are generally sweeter because they always pass a smile and so I feel comfortable enough to compliment their dogs. Haven't petted one yet. Would that bother you or am I overthinking? I think most people where I live seem to want to not be bothered. Or is it me?

I've been trying to find a bar in downtown Dallas that will play the Braves/Dodgers game with sound, but so far no luck. I'm willing to travel a bit if necessary.

I visited the State Fair today and was excited to try the gluten free options, but I'm not sure if they're accurate. I went to a lot of the booths to verify what I could. Don't be so quick to dismiss this list. Please.

I've been noticing that the free parking spots on Lower Greenville are getting expensive. I went to park behind Botolino and Jose's this weekend and was shocked at the price. The minimum is 30 minutes and it's $18. That seems insane to me. How are we supposed to park anywhere down there at these prices?

I drove by the Chick-fil-A on Beltline and Preston this morning, and the app showed it was closed for construction. I assumed they were expanding the dining room, but when I drove by again on the way home, the entire building was gone. What's going on?

I've been following the Oncor delivery charges in Dallas and noticed a significant increase. I'm curious to know if there's a logical explanation behind this rise.

I've noticed that Christian preachers often use megaphones to proselytize in public parks, while Muslim groups gather to pray quietly. It seems like a double standard. Can anyone explain why this is allowed?

I've seen a few parking lots around Dallas with a bunch of used Teslas. They're not in a dealership, but they all have registration stickers and some have license plates. It looks like they're just sitting there.

I was walking around the UT Southwestern medical center area and found a camera. It's a digital camera with a memory card inside. The camera has a fence in the background, and I'm trying to return it to the owner.

I'm looking for a place to live with my partner. We're trying to save for a down payment on a house and I found a 250 sq ft micro apartment for 860$ all bills paid. It's one room and a bathroom with a shower, but no kitchenette or on site laundry. Is there anything else available in the Dallas area with at least a tub?

I was shopping at IKEA in Dallas and noticed the Dallas skyline on their fake screens is AI-generated. It looks terrible and I'm surprised they didn't use a real photo. I've seen other versions of the skyline too, but this one is the worst.

I'm an Italian retiree living in Dallas for four years. I've noticed that my phone number keeps getting shared with random companies, including tree trimmers and roofers. I recently received a text message from a tree trimmer who mentioned an overgrown bush on my property, which I had not mentioned to anyone. I'm concerned about how they got my number and the invasive nature of their solicitation. I'd like to know if anyone else has experienced this and how they've dealt with it.

I've been riding the DART train with a friend for a while now, and we've seen some crazy behavior. Recently, he witnessed a disturbing incident and notified DART, who called the police. I'm curious to know if there are any DART cops on the trains, and if so, where can I report incidents to?

I've been experiencing a really bad cough, phlegm, and fatigue, but the worst part is the hearing symptoms - I've got tinnitus and a 'phantom echo' on high frequencies. I wonder if I'm the only one experiencing this.
