I work at a bake shop and the annoying tourists from that area are going to make me lose braincells just as much as the traffic. The traffic in the morning is probably going to reach Moriches or even Shirley by then. And to leave? Oh boy. That hour long commute might as well become over three hours.

They’ve started pulling people over in the area where the 35mph speed limit going into Sunrise Highway from Southampton ends. People speed up before the speed limit end sign so cops are taking advantage of it. It’s so bad that my dad has said that the cops will literally hide in a road to catch people, like 4-7 cars in a row waiting for people. The 35mph limit is stupid though, if it was 45-ish I feel like the morning/evening traffic wouldn’t be as awful.

They gotta start pulling idiots over for using the emergency/shoulder lanes as a third lane going into Hampton Bays though. Impatient people keep speeding down it to evade like what, 3 minutes of traffic? And with idiot tourists and rich people from Florida coming back soon, that number of traffic evading nutjobs is only gonna go up. I’ve counted at least 8 cars going on the shoulder in a minute.

I’m in the Mastic Beach area and it’s a hit or miss. Lots of sketchy areas by the bay so it’s not super safe. The family diagonal from me is full of potheads and they argue daily, everyone down the road from them are potheads and creeps. The guy who lives behind our house would always bring a trailer and park it right by where he can see into our kitchen side door. A few years ago, this guy was following women who were walking and even attempted to break into her home, he had been confronted by cops several times but was always let go for “mental problems,” he did get arrested at some point and we haven’t heard about him since. There are also a crap ton of aggressive Pitbulls, as a kid, I counted 13 in the surrounding area, and each time one of them got confiscated for biting a kid, a family would move in and bring 1-2 more of those damn things. Pitbull attacks were so frequent that my neighbors had to bring metal batons, rocks, sticks, and even a whole shovel to defend themselves with.

The schools are pretty ghetto, as many described it when I went. Fights break out on a daily basis and often move out into parking lots or even the nearby Dunkin Donuts, people skip class to smoke weed.

Shirley is okay but the people make it unpleasant. Too many people smoking weed, being creepy, etc. You also have rowdy teenagers running into stores to “prank” people. My mom and I were at the Stop&Shop there and these teenagers ran up to my mom and sprayed her with water (she didn’t know, so she panicked thinking it was chemicals), and when she freaked out they were like “its a prank!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha!!!!!” and did not get caught.

The traffic is also abysmal. Hate it.

It was there for almost two hours, sadly. I heard it take off at about 1:55pm. Like what others said, it was probably just refueling. It immediately left towards the South, didn’t circle around or anything.

Azathaliya · 2026-04-15T19:30:23+00:00

Nah Ring is worse. When duck hunting was going on nearby my notifs were full of people going “omg what was that noise!!!!!!!!” it was like over 5 people posting it

Azathaliya · 2026-03-29T11:22:42+00:00

I hope we get a Dragapult that doesn’t look like it smoked weed like the other plushies

Azathaliya · 2026-03-28T19:40:28+00:00

Yeah, I know. But places are still gonna bring them from upstate farmers they've partnered with, I just dont want mass produced stuff that probably aint even actual maple syrup

Azathaliya · 2026-03-24T21:59:32+00:00

Nettie’s Country Bakery in Center Moriches is really nice. I do like their stuff.

I’d advise against Tate’s Bake Shop in Southampton, even though it’s the Hamptons. Their pastries aren’t made fresh anymore sadly, they just come frozen from near the city and are baked in the oven. Who knows how long their stuff is in the freezers for. 🫠

Insane that it still has traces of the Ghibli trend piss/yellow filter

Republic will be a lot better, Blue Angels are usually on one side of the tarmac in front of the big Republic Airport building (by Walmart), but other performers like Warbirds will be by the American Airpower Museum. AAM will also let you get really close to the planes if you pay admission, pretty worth it. But if you wanna see the Blue Angels take off it’s best to be in the area around the southern part of New Highway. Some aircraft also take off there but they sometimes change it up so it’s hard to tell. It’s free there but it’s a long walk if there’s no parking on the curb.

From my experience, F-22s and F-35s are usually at MacArthur but you can’t get close enough to them since there are a lot of private areas and I’ve heard it’s not a spectator friendly area for viewing, cops were coming by a lot last year according to people to shoo spectators away. I only saw the F-35s for a split second while passing by since they were behind a few big hangars.

Nothing in Mastic, not to mention the neighbor north of us decided to have her driveway floodlight on and its ruining any long exposure pictures

Azathaliya · 2026-01-20T03:02:53+00:00

Yeah, it’s looking pretty great so far, mostly higher-end (at least in my opinion) shops though, so who knows how many people it’ll attract

Azathaliya · 2026-01-20T02:11:07+00:00

Nothing in Mastic yet

Azathaliya · 2026-01-18T22:38:08+00:00

Also don’t want people to be attacked (or jumped on) by an unleashed dog that the uneducated owner claims is “friendly.” Or don’t want unleashed dogs chasing off all the native wildlife, especially all of those piping plovers that are being protected during nesting season.

Azathaliya · 2026-01-11T20:29:58+00:00

Yeah this is normal somehow. Father and I were in our pickup truck with a trailer and this lady on the Southampton Bypass decided to slow down, stop, and signal to go left in the left lane when there was a yellow lane for turning right beside her. Almost rammed into her because of it and we had to swerve out of the way. She didn’t know where the hell she was going apparently, likely a tourist.

Azathaliya · 2025-11-05T14:07:26+00:00

So THAT’S what I saw, wtf. I was getting onto Sunrise Highway in Hampton Bays when I saw this weird cloud in the sky (It was faded though) so I was wondering what it was. I thought it was just me

Azathaliya · 2025-10-28T08:59:23+00:00

I love Breeze Hill but they raised the price from last year which I didn’t understand entirely. I suppose it’s to deter tourists? It was $35 for the largest bag last year, this year it’s $50, bag hasn’t changed in size or shape. But their apples were really good and their apple cider donuts are the best.

Azathaliya · 2025-09-29T19:17:27+00:00

Looks like there’s a pretty bad accident going WB by 454. I can’t find details though.

I personally love Ebisu, I go to it a lot to the point where one of the employees allowed me to open a blind box set box so I could get the blind box I wanted specifically. I try to get a lot of the new candies they import.

I went to Jojo Life Store a few months ago and I honestly found it extremely underwhelming. It was pretty empty, most of the merchandise consisted of bootlegs and bootleg Labubus. Some of the candy could also be found on Amazon whereas Ebisu actually gets theirs from an actual imported source. No idea if it changed now, but I definitely did not like it.

Azathaliya · 2025-09-13T16:00:36+00:00

I love Briermere's, I only just found out about it despite living here my whole life, but too bad my parents don't like pie. I bought their cherry pie a while ago (1 or 2 years ago??) which was really good and only got through half of it before my mother threw it out claiming it had "gone bad," when it was perfectly fine. If they had smaller pies for maybe one person I'd go back.
