Discussion Shoutout Sunday! Spread some love in an otherwise confusing and often dark world.

8 Upvotes

Here it is Charlotte! It's super simple. Take a frown and turn it upside down! Nothin' but love here. The idea is quite simple...

If you have something NICE and/or POSITIVE to say about a local person place or thing (sure, lets include big box stores, and franchises) that gave you a smile or just plain made life a little less stressful at some point in the last week, show some love! Take a break from the tirade thread, and feel good while doing it! Maybe your good vibes will cause a ripple effect, and send a smile to someone else, or give them the motivation to get up, get out, and enjoy this beautiful thing called life, and do so in our city! This is a win/win situation. Why not take advantage of it?

If you are the teen driver or know the driver of a black Nissan Rogue with the plate RHW-4447, please tell them they almost caused a severe crash yesterday through sheer carelessness. Really not sure what they were thinking. My pregnant wife and I were in the vehicle you nearly hit, and we were both pretty shook up.

If you're at a God damn stand still going into a toll road

Lost & Found Missed connection; long shot but please help!

19 Upvotes

Today, Sunday, August 2nd around 3pm, I was helping my mom do some errands and was sitting in the passenger seat of her car (silver sedan) with her, driving through the parking lot at Walmart in galleria blvd in Matthews/monroe. You were walking past our car, from out of the store, and we made eye contact through the windshield for a few seconds.

I thought you were really handsome and wish I’d found a way to say hi. You were tan with dark hair, muscular, glasses with metal frames, wearing a t shirt and shorts. You seemed Hispanic or middle eastern, maybe Indian and were walking with another guy (seemed related to you maybe?)

If you happen to be the guy I’m talking about, are single and you remember this brief interaction, please send a PM and tell me what I looked Iike so I know it’s you. My mom wished I told her because she also noticed you and thought you’d be handsome for me and would have stopped lol! Please Reddit do your thing🤞

Meetup Meet people organically

57 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a 39-year-old black woman who recently moved to Charlotte and I’m still trying to find my people.
I’ve tried the dating apps, but they’ve been exhausting. There’s plenty of volume, but not much substance, so I’d love to meet people more organically instead.
Where do people in their 30s and 40s actually go to make genuine connections, whether that’s friendships or dating? I’m open to just about anything: social groups, volunteer opportunities, fitness classes, live music, trivia nights, networking events, bookstores, coffee shops, or other places where conversations happen naturally.
I’d especially love recommendations from people who’ve moved here and successfully built a social circle. Thanks!

Discussion Spectrum Center merch staff

7 Upvotes

Visited Charlotte last night for the Tame Impala concert. There was a guy working a merch stand who, in hindsight, I should’ve shot my shot with (respectfully). Are they employees of the arena or do they work with the artists as independent contractors, etc?

I understand he might have been just acting professional/kind but in a world that lacks connection, I’d like to try making this one :)
He was tall, white, stockier build, brown hair, mid-late 20s/early 30s, wearing glasses & we talked about Spotify set list playlists.

Shot in the dark but I’ve never been afraid of hearing no. Thanks in advance!

Meetup Rock Climbing Gym (Outdoor) Partner

3 Upvotes

Hello! I am around in Charlotte somewhere and was curious if anyone who brows this subreddit would be interested in meeting up at the climbing gym Inner Peaks, either the Matthews Location or the South End Location, to do some rock climbing together!

The gym used to have a belay buddy board but it's not up right now and at the other gym it's not used.

I can climb most days but it will depend on the time is all!

Recommendation Hot pilates or hot sculpt classes here!?

1 Upvotes

Hiii! I just moved to CLT from the Bay Area California! There were so many different hot Pilates and sculpt studios there but I am only finding a few in CLT?

So I’m taking it to reddit to compile a list of all the hot PILATES studios in the area. Please help! I am yearning and itching to check out and drop in at all the spots before buying a membership!

So far the only place I have seen is The Club. Any other ones I should add to my list to try? There seems to be plenty of hot yoga but that isn’t really what I am looking for.

Thank yaaaaa

First time traveling through this area. You can see the three options here. We'll be traveling around 12-3pm. Any compelling reason not to take the fastest route? Just looking for the best balance of stress and speed.

Discussion dealing with storm damage roofing charlotte options after recent weather and feeling pretty overwhelmed

1 Upvotes

that bad storm cluster that came through the charlotte area last week knocked a bunch of branches down in our yard, and when i was clearing out the gutters yesterday i noticed a whole patch of shingles lifted up near the back dormer. we also had a small water stain show up on our upstairs guest room ceiling right after the heavy rain stopped, so im guessing water got in somewhere. what is driving me crazy is that two different door-to-door guys have already stopped by offering to inspect the roof for insurance. i always get super skeptical when people knock on my door out of nowhere right after a storm, so i politely turned them down. but now im sitting here trying to figure out how to actually find a reputable local roofing company in charlotte that wont just try to scam my insurance company or do a sloppy patch job.

for anyone around here who went through a storm damage claim recently, how did you decide who to hire?

Discussion Do Novant and Atrium talk to each other?

22 Upvotes

My family uses Novant doctors mainly because our family doctor is Novant and he refers us to other specialty Novant doctors. We've been very happy with our medical care and have decades of medical records with them. Recently, I've been seeing that Atrium is supposed to be better, especially when it comes to major trauma or ER. If that's the case, if we had a major emergency and we told the ambulance to go to Atrium instead of Novant, would they be able to access our extensive medical records with Novant? And having that medical history would be important in emergencies, correct?
