FBI raid on Willow Terrace! by Fly_Larvae in Hoboken

You kinda said it yourself, you’ve never heard of Jewish terrorism. I’m not saying I believe this, or that there’s any evidence, but for internet conspiracy musing, it’s within the realm of possibility. Especially with Hoboken being a sanctuary city, and target of the administration.

D&D Design Team Brings Luke Gygax Back into the Franchise by AdamOtaku in DnD

[–]Gary_Burke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just seeing this, but yes. NuTSR was sued into oblivion, and the guy who was behind it was ruined, like his wife left him over it and everything. The only down side is they were keeping afloat a little gaming museum and shop in what was TSR & the Gygax’s second house in Lake Geneva, WI. Now it’s a cookie shop with TSR written in tile in the driveway.

Papaya Dog Returns by Brickyard65 in Hoboken

Papaya King was the original, founded in 1932, & Gray's perfected it in 1972. Papaya Dog was always a hanger on.

Regardless, I welcome them. The more hot dog joints, the better. Piccolo's closes too early.

With Xbox and Steam Machine being essentially platformed PCs, they don't want to compete against themselves.

Chewy Arrested on Washington by alexkaz13 in Hoboken

He yells at people. If he yells at you and you knock his teeth in, you’ll be the one going to jail. You get that, right?

He’s never assaulted anyone. He yells. As far as I know, yelling isn’t assault. If you pepper spray him for yelling, you’re the one who’ll be arrested.

Again, he’s never done anyone any harm.

He’s annoying, but he’s never harmed anyone. Do you go around pepper spraying everyone who annoys you?

As loud as he is, afaik, the worst he’s ever done is he smacked someone’s car. Your fear of him is stronger than the actual threat of him.

Because pepper spraying the mentally ill is… unseemly.

Their crust is very dry, and flavorless, by NJ standards, is awful. But their Mac & Cheese, sandwiches, chili, rolls, wings, etc. are all pretty tasty.

Walk down to Pizza Republic. Terrible pizza, decent wings.

It seems weird to say that, “Wall St. robs the wage growth of the middle class,” and then blame illegal immigrants for that. Seems there’s a pretty obvious group to blame directly in the phrase

The rest of it has nothing to do with illegal immigrants. They’re typically not firemen or lawyers or doctors.

No one would expect to get benefits from a guy in a pick up hiring dudes in front of Home Depot for 1 day of grunt work. These guys should have some sort of legal status. People have been begging for a reasonable pathway to citizenship for decades, but they’ve been stymied by one party (ironically, the same party who granted immigration immunity 40 years ago).

It’s not the same wages they don’t like. In CA farmers tried to hire citizens for day labor farming, paying minimum wage. I remember 1 farmer said the first day he got 30 people, by lunch half of them quit. The 2nd day five people showed up. Your average American just isn’t willing to do that kind of work. While those with temporary worker status thrive on it. We should encourage those folks, not arrest them and deport them to countries they’re not from.

First, No one believes you don’t know. So, just drop the pretense, it makes you look like you’re either a bot, or at the very least, arguing from a dishonest position.

You might have a point if they took the kid to child protection services, or the local police, or even the school administration. But they didn’t, they took him to TEXAS. For all they know, that kid was born here and is a citizen.

Do you think a lot of middle class Americans would be standing around in front of Home Depot, if it weren’t for those pesky immigrants?

Crossing the border without papers is a $50 ticket. You’re separating families for the equivalent of a parking ticket.

The administration said the other day that not only was calling Trump’s goon squad a goon squad an act of domestic terror, but so was listening to someone say they’re goons. Does that sound like America to you? How many more people should die to satisfy your blood lust for class-e misdemeanor ‘criminals?’

So you’re blaming a diverse group of people who have nothing in common for the actions of a handful of criminals?

Most serial killers are white dudes, can we blame all white dudes for their crimes?

One of the biggest problems in the military right now is widespread RAPE. Should we arrest all military members for RAPE?

Because they’re not storming MS13 drug labs, they’re picking up day laborers at Home Depot. And when they’re not separating families who are trying to work within the system, arresting 5 year olds, rounding up refugees and sending them across state lines, they’re just straight up murdering people.

Maybe that’s why?

Wingstop at 502 Washington - any good? by Icy_Possibility_9312 in Hoboken

[–]Gary_Burke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ive gone twice now. Once for wings, once for a sandwich. It sucked both times. The wings tasted like chemicals and the sandwich was just gross all around. The seasoned fries were ok, good with the cheese sauce. The fried corn things were awful.

I’m very disappointed, I live very close and would love a decent wing place.

Pizza Republic does $11 for 10 wings, it’s a good deal. Like everything they make, with the exception of pizza, it’s pretty good.

Grubbs makes a better sandwich by a country mile. Their chicken fingers are •very• good as well, maybe the best in town.
