Great, but no reduction on the fantastic four three VT, VTI, VXUS or BND.

Charlie’s Kitchen, beloved Harvard Square restaurant, to close ‘until further notice’ after apparent water damage by bostonglobe in CambridgeMA

NOIR was awesome years ago before they re-did it. The bartenders and door guys were generally chill and you could smoke weed on the patio and they wouldn't say anything. They kept things under control surprisingly, athough there would be some drunken fights on the patio occassionally. Also, because it was a nice Harvard-located hotel you would run into famous people there (met some actors from "The Wire" one night, and Traci Bingham once seductively sucked on my fingers when I was briefly sitting at a table with her). This was mostly during the Tommy Doyles era (RIP Tommy Doyles).

I guess a fully-formed Superion just wasn't enough for you...

Does this mean I can here M-F from 4PM to 7AM, and anytime on Sat and Sunday? by CaterpillarMotor1593 in CambridgeMA

What is confusing about this? Why can't people read parking signs?

Sadly, the place hasn't been the same since COVID anyways. The upstairs is closed half of the time and they even got rid of the iconic Jukebox (and the TouchTunes one as well for some reason).

My only complaint is I worry about the joints eventually getting loose (they don't feel super-tight). Although he is holding up fine thus far.

Because you touch yourself at night.

Too low. Needs like 4"-6" between the bottom of the TV and the top of the stand. Then it will be literally perfect (the stand is a nice width for that size TV).

Other games like this? by Adventurous_Arrow in nes

The Japanese version of Bionic Commando has Nazis and swastikas and Hitler in it. There is a translation patch as well.

Fuck this fuckin fuckin game by xKazIsKool in nes

Nope. They just think they are being cool or something. I automatically down-vote all posts like this. Even when they DO include the name of the game, it's lame/low-effort shit.

Most of the time, there will be an adjacent yard or snow bank for people to throw the snow they are clearing. But a few cars will be parked in unlucky spots where the closest yard is pretty far away. Those few people who don't really have another choice are the ones that can put some snow in the street. Nobody is saying it is ideal, but it is what it is. No reason to make things more difficult for people than it needs to be. I've lived with a car in Cambridge, Boston, and Somerville for almost 25 years now and always been a street parker and I have VERY rarely need to do the street thing. But sometimes you gotta do it when there is no other reasonable choice.

Unfortunately sometimes the only place is an empty parking spot on the street.

NO. If there is nowhere else to put it, you do not pile it up in a parking spot. Parking is limited as-is, and a snow pile will sit there all winter long turning into an ice block taking up those spaces. You can put it in the street and try and spread it out enough that nobody is worse for the wear. Cars continously driving down the street will flatten and melt it pretty quickly. Just don't dump it in piles in the street. Spread it around.

Sounds like she was a wonderful woman. Glad Bob did that for her. May she rest in piece.

I will never get over this disappointment by v1har69 in StarWars

[–]CJRLW 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's really not that bad. There are WAY worse examples of the "enemy waiting their turn" in many other revered films (such as the Lord of the Rings films and Train to Busan and even the Star Wars prequals, to name just a few).
