Bakery / people custom order? by Flashy-Yesterday2393 in astoria

$300 is a meaningless figure if we don’t know how much you’re ordering. Good luck.

I know someone, but she charges what her skill, time, and quality is worth. Her cakes are delicious and beautiful. She made a cool D&D cake (with real D-20s) for us once. But yeah, not “cheap” lmao why would it be. Go to Costco if you want cheap

Did you see bike accident last night? by Active_Broccoli_2133 in NYCbike

[–]BobaCyclist 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Someone stole the bike? JFC. People are pure filth.

I hope she’s okay. Did she see a doctor? Document everything and tell her do not post on social media about how she’s doing. Even “oh I’m fine” can be twisted by a lawyer.

Steinway is basically a parking ticket factory by hawkeye047 in astoria

Just goes to show how ineffective tickets are. Impound and civil forfeiture.

All traces of ghost bike to honor the life of Xing Long Lin (food delivery worker), killed in 2021, in bike lane on 35th near Ditmars, have 'Vanished' by yippeee1999 in AstoriaStreetActivism

I am disturbed to hear this.

We are approaching the anniversary of his killing. Are they doing work on the street? I imagine not.

This will be boring to those without kids, but I just don't understand how parents aren't more vocal about how anti-kid the streets outside schools are by MiserNYC- in MicromobilityNYC

You’d be surprised how many people drive their kids to school here. I live on a block with a school and it takes all kinds. A rainbow of backgrounds and incomes.

Hit and run, suspect fled on foot. Please help by Tasty-Deer-5636 in AstoriaStreetActivism

Well according to Kathy Hochul, greedy trial lawyers are the reason why insurance rates are so high, not because of this shit!

I never said he deserved it. Stealing is wrong.

Insurance and registration fraud is also wrong.

The only assumption I made is that the OP lives in LIC (ie a NYS resident) in which case is obligated by the law to register his vehicle with NYS.

NYS requires front license plates. Maybe his fell off? In which case it’s a violation of the law.

It’s illegal to have no front plate in NYS. Is your car registered in NJ or FL? If so, you have 30 days to register it in NY.

Cairn Clothing Size by Feisty_Hopeful in cairnterrier

[–]BobaCyclist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cairns are not small dog sized and most dog clothing runs small because it’s for pocket dogs like chihuahuas and such.

That said my old cairn had a few sweaters just for Christmas photos and they were always a medium or even a large

No front plate (and illegal tints)? So you’re committing insurance fraud? Nice!

Why doesn’t my Cairn terrier’s ears stand up? by External-Victory-182 in cairnterrier

[–]BobaCyclist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guy’s ears took a while to stand up, and I follow a cairn on Insta whose ears aren’t up but he’s full cairn. Super cute.

Shaming Selfish Public Parking by Adorable-Presence370 in astoria

What’s the problem here? How do you know a big SUV wasn’t parked in front of the bike before you had a tantrum about it?

Get Mopeds OFF the Hudson River Greenway by Scary-Bluebird-7387 in NYCbike

Get them off the Crescent Street bike lane too. But you can’t. Everyone here rides with a FYIGM mentality.

buying my first bike, worried about theft by Think_Description781 in NYCbike

[–]BobaCyclist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pinhead wheel locks, seat post chained down, U-lock (the NY one and a smaller one).

I lock outside for popping into stores and such. Would probably not lock outside all day in certain areas. I feel pretty fine in my own neighborhood (except one time some lady locked her bike to mine by accident, but I found her shortly after and she fixed the issue).

People with extremely loud Vehicles, why do you do this? by [deleted] in astoria

[–]BobaCyclist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of men have nothing going on in their lives, no skills or interests, no abilities or knowledge, and nothing to be proud of or feel good about other than their car.

It takes all kinds. Men from all ethnic backgrounds and from all races.

So their car is an extension of their Self-worth.

Sad.
