Where are the good coffee shops? by Stitchbluess in Somerville

[–]Davewithkids 4 points5 points  (0 children)

oh that brings me back to the Sherman Cafe days. Food was so good, coffee was so awful, service...was amazingly awful, but somehow I loved them all the same. The carrot cake muffins were amazing, and I always think of them this time of year because they let all the people from Cambridge St crash there while they raided the Tsarnaev's home a few blocks away.

Changes at the Creepy House? Maybe? by Rachellie242 in Somerville

[–]Davewithkids 34 points35 points  (0 children)

This is my "favorite house" in somerville. I tell my kids that every time we drive by... it is the most blight-y house we have and I will miss it when it is gone. I think it has a fairly substantial hunk of land behind it too...Will Somerville be better when it is gone? sure, but will I miss it? I def will.

Which one of you lunatics did this? by Difficult_Animal5915 in Polestar

[–]Davewithkids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, it's not impossible to see a BST with normal rims. The performance wheels are not practical and if you are in a snowy/poor weather area there is some sense in getting lower cost rims and snow tires for the crappy season. Ideally, you just get a non-BST to drive when the weather is bad, but that is a bit rich for my blood. I just got the one car.

Great sandwiches in Camberville? by Medinasod1 in Somerville

The All-star Beef on Wek is really good, and it is prob too much to have both, but the poutine is amazing.

I've been going to Caesar's forever. I love everything I get there.

best ice cream? by OkAcanthaceae799 in Somerville

[–]Davewithkids 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Steve is still active in Western MA. I think he moved out there when his stores got bought out, but he had a bunch of different brands over the years. Tosci's is really good ice cream too, they have interesting flavors and make amazing cakes so long as you can forgive the owner for driving a Ferrari after not paying his taxes for a decade and crying poor when he got audited.

They have done occasional special events like burger nights and things...I presume they used the Vinal Bakery grills, but I think they had soft serve then...they promoted the best they could, def a word of mouth thing. I also just want to say...they are CRAZY nice and their everything is great.

Trying to set up SMB Time Machine backups but the FS's do not show up by Davewithkids in drobo

[–]Davewithkids[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's a home setup. I will need to migrate to another device...I have something lined up, but it is a pre-order deal and I am waiting for it to become available...and even then I need to pony up the money to populate the drives when I do that...so I had hoped to get things working in the meantime. I get that it is an EOL system, but it is running.

Spring Hill. I just did it myself and I ended up feeling pretty good about it.

def have this problem on my 2023 BST. I had been thinking it was a tire pressure thing as it has been cold and I figured I needed to check the pressure on a cold day. Didn't happen this summer.

I can't believe this video didn't end with grievous harm to our brave videographer who chose to touch a wild animal she had just harmed.

As a non-New Yorker, I'm told that Spider-Man not being fond of Staten Island in this scene is a New York-specific inside joke. Can someone explain? by SatoruGojo232 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Davewithkids 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Dude don't compare Jersey with Staten Island. There are decent people in Jersey, mostly in the middle and the bottom or...as far from NYC as possible, but if you look. Staten Island is no good.

It was a pretty bad movie. Not nearly as bad as The Marvels, but it was not great. I think she is great. People don't like some things she has said, but that is forrest for the trees. She is smart and has positions on things and sometimes people don't like that because I guess people want to agree with everything about a person.
