Not a Columbia alum, but have frequented the area on most of my trips to NYC. Couldn't recall if Amsterdam and Morningside were streets, drives, or avenues! Luckily it all worked out.

I'm feeling cautious about being in first place. I'd much like a three peat but fear a comeuppance. I worry that somewhere out there is a bottle of cream of tartar with my name on it.
I'd rather cuddle then have sex. If you're into grammar, you'll understand.

Many of you expressed your stern disapproval of this question. I've heard the term enough times in various media that I assumed most people would know it. In retrospect, I could have given some more information to help out the rest of you. Oops!
FAANG stands for the original FANG (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google) plus Apple. Jim Cramer first used the term in 2013.

Re: TD 423 - Mini-TD #7 - Q5 Revealed
Lived in Southern California most of my life. Los Angeles in 1984, baseball at Dodger Stadium and soccer in the Rose Bowl. I definitely didn't appreciate the opportunity to go watch them as I was 9 years old then. I'll have to do it again some other time.
Now swimming in the J! pool.

Thanks for the TD. Morbeedo, we know you were the streaker at the 1976 Olympics.
I'd rather cuddle then have sex. If you're into grammar, you'll understand.

Re: TD 423 - Mini-TD #7 - Final Standings
I never heard the term but sussed it out pretty easily even though I had trouble with the G for Google instead of the A for Alphabet. The F'ing facebook was enough, along with Apple that makes two companies that need to be broken up.morbeedo wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 2:26 pm 6. FAANG (6)

Thanks for the mini, these are still my fave. I gather from my elimination (for giving 1988 Seoul site) that this is not the year 1999? Are you sure it isn't a Y2K glitch on your end?

Fifth was the only avenue I knew (because Trump bragged about how he could get away with shooting someone on it) and I had no doubt it would sheep, and I did save myself a point that way.
I nearly guessed Ninth Avenue, but chickened out.

A fitting end for a decidedly mediocre performance from me. I knew undecagon would sheep. Should've gone with "kite" for that one.
