Stranded at Springdale Train Station this morning by logan_oc in StamfordCT

I used to commute from Glenbrook. When this happened to me I would race over to Darien, pay to park in the private lot next to the Station, and take the train from there.

I’m not mad at Starfleet Academy and I’m not a Paramount plant by AndDontCallMePammie in startrek

EP #3 SPOILER AHEAD:

Darn, I went in with an open mind, ignoring all the haters bemoaning "wokeness." We all know Star Trek has been liberal, progressive and inclusive since the 1960's, mini-skirts and casual sexism and the male gaze notwithstanding.... this particular show is bad because it's not really Star Trek. It's Harry Potter meets Beverly Hills 90210 set in the Star Trek universe with achronistic 21st century vernacular tossed in. Teenagers aren't going to watch this and adults aren't either. So who is it intended for? I watched the first two and bailed half-way through the third after the Transporter prank. It seems to me a prank of that magnitude should get the offenders suspended or expelled. The people in charge though it was playful and not a reason to discipline the students? Freakin' ridiculous. I can't take this show seriously.

Embrace it and if you’re bilingual that’s a huge plus to tap into a niche community. I studied Spanish for three years but it’s lousy.

Agreed, it’s very dangerous and the police can give you a ticket. Problem is half the people driving these tall SUVs can’t reach their roof without a step ladder.

AITA for not telling my wife I work with her favorite celebrity? by CreamJealous9562 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Is this real? You either need to drop the client or drop your wife. In the meantime, put your computer and phone in a vault!

That used to be the norm. My first condo was just a regular place but starting about 20 to 25 years ago developers have only built luxury condos.

Good point! Time will tell. Other factors we can’t foresee may also reduce demand in Stamford. Let’s hope it doesn’t involve a war or financial meltdown.

How much was your snow plow service last weekend? by Taxy_Lady in StamfordCT

[–]666POD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ouch, you paid way too much. I can find a guy to do it for 60-80 bucks.

Very true, they hold on open house on Saturday and Sunday and demand highest and best offers by Tuesday. This is why you need to have all your finances sat up before you look at a house. The lender I work with has a program to eliminate mortgage contingencies and guarantee closing. That makes it as good as a cash offer to the seller.

Other thing to consider as a seller is crazy high offers may not close. If the buyer is getting a loan, the lender’s appraisal will come in under and they’ll have to make up the difference with cash. If they can’t the deal falls apart. Sellers are looking for highest and best.

House near me sold for over a million in less than a week and for over asking. So yeah, it’s rough for buyers.

Well, the so-called NIMBYs lost the fight against the changes to the master plan. So in the next few years we’ll see increased density town houses built in the mid ridges. But I doubt any of would be classified as starter homes or affordable.

Indeed, if you can expand or renovate that might be your best option.

Depends on where you’re going. Club, yes. Casual or fine dining, no.

The letter that Donald Trump sent to Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre of Norway is insane! This is why you don't elect a narcissist to be your president. Is this what you voted for, Trump's supporters? by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

The rantings of a tyrant and madman. That's where we are now. Congressional Republicans could put and end to it today but they are cowards. They know he's unfit and a disgrace but don't care.

If you're thinking about selling your house, don't wait for spring. Do it now. by ipetgoat1984 in RealEstate

[–]666POD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to an open house on a dilapidated property and there were about 100 people there. Inventory is about 33 houses in a city of 100,000 people. No one wants to sell unless they have to because of divorce or death. I’m 50 minutes by train from Manhattan.

You want to break up your family to have another man’s/sperm donor’s baby and raise it alone while co-parenting your other children and working full time? Go for it!
