Hi! I’m looking for a ticket to US open fan access week. My whole family goes every year and unfortunately this is the first year they reached capacity and although free tickets are no longer available. Please let me know if anyone has one to transfer.
I'm putting together a county-by-county map of sports allegiances across New York State (NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and other leagues as gauged by interest). To do so I am collecting self-reported data from New Yorkers. If you have the time and are a sports fan of any size, I would appreciate if you helped fill up my dataset. Right now I have a little over 100 responses, but a lot of them are from NYC and Long Island (where I'm from). I'm trying to get a much larger and diverse dataset to boost the overall quality of the project. All answers are anonymous. You'll have to be logged into an email for Google Forms to ensure more than one response is not submitted by the same person, but I can not see any of it.
If you're curious here's the link: https://forms.gle/ZcAaWBVEJNeHr2RUA
Any responses would be appreciated, Thanks!
Go Knicks and Go Bills
Any recommendations for someone or company that fabricates loop lock pool covers on Long Island? A deer jumped into our pool
this winter and destroyed mine. Thanks!
So i wanna stop wasting money on Disposable vapes like geek bars and Juul's. i have a set up to vape, but most shops only sell vape juice that is tobacco flavored and its gross. i want the delicious stuff lol. the fruity and creamy stuff thats not heavily menthol-ated.. i will go to the reservation to get my herb when i need bulk. so im fimillar with that side of the rez and used to go there for ciggs and cigars. they do sell the disposable vapes, and i think i saw them selling vaping setups (not sure if that is 100% right)..i just want to know if they sell the FLAVORED e-juice for refillable Vapes..if anyone knows, it would be greatly appreciated!!
My husband is starting a job soon based out of Westbury NY. Would be great for him to have a reasonable commute up to a 30 min drive. I work in midtown but am remote. If I do end up going back to the office, commuting to midtown would need to be possible. Kids are 5 yrs old, 3 yrs old, 4 months old. Looking to join a good school district, good community, good church. Looking for a nice town not too close to the water - not trying to get flooded, also prefer larger older trees as opposed to the south shore which has a more beachy feel. Any advice would be appreciated. Selling our house for around 700k in NJ. Aiming to pay between 750 and 950k. 950 on super high end. Community pool(s) and lots of parks also bonuses!
It seems like you can get more space in towns like Levittown, West Babylon, but I worry that’s too far from NYC transportation. Also I’ve read mixed reviews of the schools and towns.
I’m 36M in Oceanside and I swear making actual friends as an adult on Long Island is ridiculously hard lol. I’ve tried looking at groups and activities, but everything seems to either be far away, centered around bars/dating, or I show up and somehow I’m the youngest person there by 30 years 😂.
I’m going through a major change in my life right now, and it’s made me realize I really need to start building more of a social life of my own. I’m not looking for a huge friend group — honestly, I’d be thrilled to find one or two people around my age that I genuinely click with.
I’m into video games (Halo, Gears of War, Fortnite, Smash Bros., co-op games), movies/TV, karaoke, billiards, arcades like Dave & Buster’s/Round1/Main Event, mini golf, swimming, Broadway shows, going out to eat, or even just walking around the mall and browsing stores. I also like talking about current events and joking about whatever ridiculous thing is happening.
I like casual/social games too, like Heads Up and Codenames — basically stuff where you can joke around and have fun. I’m not really into complicated strategy games or things like D&D, but if something is easy to pick up, I’m usually down to play.
I’m definitely not a bar/club person and I’m not looking for dating or hookups — just platonic friends. I’m also much more of an indoor person. Hiking, running and the gym aren’t really my thing lol.
I’m hoping to find people relatively local to Oceanside — RVC, Lynbrook, East Rockaway, Baldwin, Merrick/Bellmore, Island Park, Long Beach, Valley Stream, Franklin Square, West Hempstead, etc. I don’t want to drive 45 minutes through Long Island traffic every time we want to hang out lol.
I guess what I’m really looking for is the kind of friendship where eventually you can text someone “I’m bored, want to do something?” and an hour later you’re playing pool or video games, getting something to eat, going to an arcade, walking around a store, or just hanging out watching something.
I’m a little socially awkward at first because I’ve never been great at making friends, but once I’m comfortable I’m very conversational and joke around a lot.
Anyone else around here in their 30s/early 40s in the same boat? Feel free to comment or DM me. I’m definitely open to exchanging numbers and texting once we’ve talked a little and gotten to know each other.
37M looking for a female pool partner in the Long Island area. Not looking for anything complicated—just a relaxed, strictly platonic night out, some pool, drinks/food, and good conversation.
You don't need to be good at pool. Honestly, I’m more interested in having good company than finding a pool shark.
Nassau/Suffolk preferred. If that sounds like your kind of evening, feel free to DM.
We tried a slightly weird meetup idea in Huntington tonight and it worked way better than I expected 😂
Eight of us met up at Main St. Board Game Cafe for what we called a "Digital Declutter Café."
The idea was basically:
Bring your phone or laptop.
Pick ONE digital chore you've been avoiding.
And instead of sitting at home telling yourself you'll eventually deal with your 14,000 screenshots, do it at a table with other people who are also avoiding their own nonsense.
I made everyone little handmade "Tiny Reset" guides with ideas like cleaning out photos, screenshots, email, downloads, old apps, notes, subscriptions, etc. There were also some dumb little side quests and a "Digital Time Capsule" challenge to find the oldest/weirdest thing buried on your device.
And people actually did it!
Phones were getting cleaned out, laptops were open, files were getting organized, people were comparing the bizarre stuff they'd forgotten they had saved...
And then one person took "digital decluttering" to its logical extreme and literally opened up a laptop and started working on the hardware 😂
We also uncovered some incredible digital archaeology, including an old underwater proposal photo featuring a scuba diver holding a "Will You Marry Me?" sign while a ray casually photobombed the entire operation.
Once we'd been productive long enough, we declared "SCREENS DOWN," ordered more food/drinks, pulled out board games, and spent the rest of the night hanging out.
Honestly, this might be one of my favorite meetup formats we've tried.
There was no pressure to constantly make conversation because everyone initially had something to work on. People naturally started talking and helping each other while they worked, and by the time the board games came out everyone had already settled in.
Eight people spending a Monday night together deleting screenshots and playing games shouldn't have been this wholesome, but here we are.
We're a Long Island Discord community that does casual meetups like this around the Island. The whole goal is basically to create more low-pressure reasons for adults to get out of the house, meet people locally, and actually DO some of the random things we always say we'd like to do.
A lot of people come to their first meetup alone, and that's completely normal.
So if you're on Long Island and you've been wanting to make some new friends but the idea of walking into a traditional social meetup and making small talk with strangers for three hours sounds horrifying, feel free to message me for the Discord.
We do weird little activities.
Apparently now that includes communal screenshot deletion.
No regrets. 😂
Patchogue Port Jefferson I’m just interested in meeting some new people let me know :)
