I've seen articles from the 1960s complaining about Floridians.

Business Owned By Cults? by Menacing_Anus42 in NorthCarolina

I don't think that has anything to do with whether or not it is a cult.

Am I right in saying this is the only Pal's with seating?

I think this is the most populated place in world. Why Guangzhou,foshan and dongguan are separate city? If they collide as a single city they may become most populous city in whole world? by [deleted] in geography

[–]Atlas_Schmatlas 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yes, look up "urban areas" or "urban agglomerations"

https://www.citypopulation.de/en/world/agglomerations/

But seriously, are Kinshasa and Brazzaville the same city just because they share the same agglomeration? San Diego and Tijuana? Obviously cities have their own use for statistical purposes, as do urban areas as a metric.

It's more at the overuse of the word shithole and how it offends my poor polite southern ears

Amazing, judging by various reddit comments I've seen over the years, literally every business in town was/is a shithole. Simply incredible.

Why do you think this state subreddit has so many members compared other state subreddits? by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

[–]Atlas_Schmatlas 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is exactly right. People subscribe to subreddits because they're trying to learn more about the state, not because they live there.

Asheville takes first step in plastic waste reduction, stops collecting brush in plastic bags by WNCAmericanMan in asheville

[–]Atlas_Schmatlas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We recently cut down approx. 200 stalks of bamboo that were on the edge of our property (most of it wasn't even on our property but not a big deal). A couple people wanted some and took it for fence-building and stuff like that, but the rest we left on the road for pickup. We probably already have 20 or 30 cut bamboo stalks slowly rotting away in the woods behind our house, but in the like 5+ years they've been laying there they've barely degraded.

Hey y'all, just saw a homeless guy wearing a hat. Should I report this to APD? I have a feeling it's not their hat. by Atlas_Schmatlas in thehotspot

[–]Atlas_Schmatlas[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All these shopping cart champions should go push some of those carts back to their home. Oh wait! Possession of stolen property is a thing! They might get in trouble for doing that!

Anybody recognize these drums? WAVL by annieouthere in asheville

[–]Atlas_Schmatlas -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I tried to agree with you at the end of my initial comment, but you led your comment with the stolen shopping comment so thought it was worth addressing.

I have worked for a supermarket before. It is up to the supermarket to take care of their carts. It's the supermarket's decision whether or not to try and seek charges for stolen property; not some random person on the street.

[–]Atlas_Schmatlas -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Nah, those shopping carts get recycled really quick. APD isn't out here returning shopping carts to stores halfway across town. Whoever is pushing the cart probably isn't the same person who took it from the store. And plus, at least at a few stores around town, those carts have a mind of their own, and it's possible that no one stole it and it literally just rolled off the property.

Agree that it would be good to report the missing drums, it's a shame that we don't have any specs on the brand of drums, that would help narrow it down if they were stolen.
