Separated after many years of marriage and apparently dating has had about 37 software updates since I was last single. 😂

So, Charlotte people with some successes…what’s the move these days? Apps, meeting people in the wild, or did I miss another update? TIA

VOTE HER OUT She's taken AIPAC money and visited Netanyahu. She's supports the genocide in Palestine!

Anyone going to the CLT Runway 5k tomorrow? Any chance you can take some pictures for me I could use on a website?

Trying to maximize fall vibes for a date night. Looking for a wine bar or pub with cozy vibes - maybe even a fire pit??? Ideally close to the city. Fall specials for drinks or food are a bonus.

Also if anyone has any fall activity recs (cideries, hay rides, etc.) for this weekend? I just moved here and trying to figure out what's worth a longer drive/trek and what's not. Is now peak fall season or is it still early?

Hi,

I have a rather complicated history with orthopedic surgery and have posted in this sub before.

The TL:DR is I need an Iliopsoas tenotomy done after a hip replacement. (A snip of the hip flexor, basically)

This has been confirmed by several revision surgeons.

Unfortunately… none of them do the surgery themselves and no one has been able to source a referral for me. (Currently with Ortho Carolina)

Seems absolutely wild to me; this isn’t that uncommon of a procedure! But here we are and here I am sending this out to the hive mind:

Anyone know of a surgeon who does this kind of surgery?

Thanks in advance!

This Saturday (10/17) at Middle James Brewing in Waxhaw, Shameless Society Improv is bringing their Whose Line is it Anyway-style comedy show!

YugiOh is one of my favorite card games of all time. Every year or two, theres always something that brings me back into the game. I’ve been told that there are places here in Charlotte that have a community of active players.

Are any of you aware of those shops?

I am a UNC Charlotte student looking to work as a server somewhere in Charlotte or around (I live in Gastonia so anywhere from Gastonia to Pineville to Harrisburg is fine).

I have no experience as a server and I am trying to find somewhere that would let me gain experience as a server that I can get decent tips! Let me know if you guys have any recommendations!

I know that Charlotte has a decently sized pickleball culture and I'm looking for advanced pickleball lessons to improve my game after having somewhat plateaued out. I would say that I'm somewhat around 4.25 right now, but would appreciate some more fine honing of my skills to advance to the next level. Trying not to spend more than $200 all in all, depending on what I can get for that.

I know there is one-on-one coaching, which is a little bit more pricey, but there are also advanced clinics in some clubs where it's probably more like a small group session. Any experiences that someone could share or recommend?

Thanks in advance.

Where can I find the fanciest chocolates to gift someone? I miss the chocolate counter at Dean and Deluca if anyone remembers what I'm talking about. The couple of chocolatiers I've found via Google only work events or special orders. Help is so appreciated!

There’s been some interest in getting a small group of people together around Charlotte who are serious about starting, buying, or growing a business, so let’s make it happen!

The idea is simple: bring together a handful of motivated people who want to build something of their own. Whether you’re exploring business ideas, looking to acquire an existing business, or already have experience as an owner, we can learn from each other, share resources, research opportunities, and help each other take the next steps.

No need to have it all figured out. The goal is to get the right people in the room, have honest conversations, exchange ideas, and build some momentum.

We have a location in Charlotte available for an initial meetup. From there, we can figure out the best format and how often to get together.

If you’re serious about entrepreneurship and want to surround yourself with other like-minded people, comment below or send me a message!

Let’s see who’s interested and get the first meetup on the calendar. 🤝

Anyone planning to do the crawl tonight in NoDa? Looking for a group to go to a few places and rack up some points. The long sleeve CLT shirt is calling my name.

Flexible on where to start, I live right next to Heist Brewery! I’m 26M, living in NoDa for two years now.

I’ve gotten this several times and need answers before making any decisions.

where is the Deaf community in charlotte? are there events i can go to so i can immerse myself in the culture as i’m learning ASL?

Any salons in the area offer digital perms?

Founders Hall was a mall. The stores were OK: 25 years ago, an Express (chain store for women), Jos. A. Bank, a bookstore, etc.

Uptown could certainly support more retail, but Founders Hall, the premier retail location, now has almost no stores and is marketed as an event space.

What happened? Did Covid just remove the customer traffic that those stores had? I assume that Bank of America intentionally got rid of the stores, but why?

Hi!! I'm a local here in Charlotte working as a Graphic Designer and I'm trying to find a way to network, make other artist friends, and explore opportunities or other professionals who could give career advice. Does anyone have any recommendations on communities, events, competitions, etc?

new-ish to area and have an older VW Toureag SUV (2008) where the digital display and radio are both (not at same time....but within a few months) started to act up. may be related? maybe not. radio less an issue than the display since I can't even see odometer anymore

the car has nearly 230k miles so am clearly not trying to put too much into it. but more so just trying to eek out another year to 18 mos until some college expenses pass by for kids 😜

any independent shops that you'd recommend? assume if I go to dealer it's suddenly a 400$ diagnosis to pull my dash apart and then all sorts of
"could be this....could be that" levels of trial and error

my ideal would be an indy shop says "let's drop a used dash display from a junkyard in and you are good" which a dealer would never go for. Ideas?

I'm all ears. Thanks !

hey guys i went to a concert a couple weeks ago and got one of the refillable souvenir cups. does anyone know if i would be able to bring it back in for another concert im going to?

Not sure what flair to use but we recently found these kittens stuck in the storm drains near our residence. There are four and mom is likely hanging around nearby. We are working on getting them out but have not had any luck with animal control or the fire department. Our main priority right now is trying to find someplace for them to go after we get them out but many of the shelters are at capacity or are not responding to our calls. If anyone has any helpful info please let me know. We are trying to get them someplace safe before it rains overnight and we cannot bring them into our place as they may pose a risk to our animals.

I accidentally threw my AirPods away while I was in a rush to change at work and Javier from the Johnson group (cleaning company) literally went dumpster diving and found my AirPods. Like I am genuinely in shock rn he wouldn’t take my money. I’m already planning on baking him something but I need to find who to contact from his job. Someone please help me!!!

I’m freshly homeless due to falling for a rental scam and only have enough for a few more nights in a hotel, but will be on my own starting Monday. Are there any safe places I can park my car to sleep in it where I won’t be at risk of getting towed or broken into?

I have a planet fitness membership but they’re only 24/7 Tues-Thurs, so I need somewhere for all the other days. Im not sure how many weeks I’ll be in my car for, but it’ll be less than a month.

My first thought is maybe the Atrium emergency room parking deck, since it’s relatively cheap to park there, open 24/7, and I can go inside the hospital if I need to use the restroom. I’m open to all suggestions
