"Suggestors" are just gloaters in disguise - they appear as they mean well but they are really just saying "I've been to that place before you".  Dude, people were just trying to give you tips on where you could have a fun meal...lol. Relax.

 Re: Does anybody want to come to CES?
Algren, something that might interest you because it is pretty cool for film/series fans is this: https://www.vegas.com/attractions/on-th ... sion-city/You can go and watch a test screening of some TV series episode and then grade different aspects of it. I'd do it just for the experience of a test screening. I did it when I was there, it was some shitty season premiere of "Criminal Minds", but I found the whole process interesting.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm sure it was relaxed, I guess I'm just saying there was no ill intent by trying to offer up a suggestion on a place to eat.

Thanks for the suggestion. You're welcome. If I remember correctly, you just walk up there and you get a ticket that specifies what time you have got to be there for the screening (usually an hour or two later).
