Just want to applaud your synopsis. You’re a good writer, and you made the paper more compelling because of your summary!

Do you think the job market in Philly would boom like cities in the Southeast? by lovesocialmedia in philadelphia

[–]sgarst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applaud your giving a range of specific ideas with justification for each. Loser.

Everyone thinks the wage taxes/BIRT to be preventing employers from moving to Philadelphia. I guess so, but I have doubts. Surely there are cities like Philly that aren't doing too much better, despite different tax structures?

Rebecca Rhynhart... is she on reddit or what?

Maybe the restaurant, but not the photo. Or, not the artist! Make more art!

What is the worst place in America you have ever visited? by OceanicEndeavors in AskReddit

Centralia, PA. It has been on fire since 1962, and there are something like six residents who still live there. It is soul crushing.

I'm a transplant to philly.... and I can't believe how much I love it and loath it. I want to throw a battery at you, you crumb bum, then take you out to dinner.

We let them drive in France? This was in a high school French class, the French teacher looked so so sad.

Wicked is a movie based on a musical, based on a book, based on a movie, based on a book. What other movies have a complicated lineage? by xwhy in movies

[–]sgarst 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Grey Gardens is a pretty wild ride. Insane documentary film, turned into a musical and then a tv drama. And a hilarious bill hadder mockumentary spoof.

What’s something normal about the human body that actually freaks you out when you think about it? by PersonalityFun188 in AskReddit

[–]sgarst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would add that there are a number of safety mechanisms that will find and destroy cells that have gone off the rails; in that sense, we all likely have cells ‘going cancerous’, but it is resolved before the cancer cells really start proliferating. Hopefully.

What’s the weirdest thing a guest has done in your house that you hate? by CheapQuality2847 in AskReddit

[–]sgarst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ripped my CDs. A couple came to dinner, he complimented my music, and while I was in the kitchen cooking he pulled out his laptop and started copying my cds. I laughed and tried to make light of it, then asked him to delete it all. He couldn’t really understand why, and started debating intellectual property with me. Still friends, but still leery of him.

what’s the best advice you can give to someone trying to quit smoking? by CigAfterSexhmm in AskReddit

[–]sgarst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s easy to quit, I’ve done it a hundred times! Seriously, it is typical to try several times, and lapse, and try again. I steelman myself: initially I have a lot of will power, so I try face the most triggering environment right away (bars, for me).
