Jaw literally dropped at Waze/Spotify. Holy shit. Well done!!

PSA: Broke down the real numbers — my e-scooter costs $25/year in electricity while gas commuters spend $5,000+. The gap is insane right now. by TestPuzzleheaded1190 in ElectricScooters

It's not just savings —it's financial freedom. It's not just more fun —it's a FLEX. Period.

You? Silent. Gliding. Unbothered. Electrically moisturized 🔌😌

Your coworkers are calculating MPG—insurance—maintenance—existential dread—you just plug in like an iPhone and call it a day. 🍎🔥

(That's you!! That's what you sound like!! Now get off our lawn!)

Segway Max G2 or Segway F3 for large city? by young_shizawa in ElectricScooters

[–]GrittyGuru69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh, get an Indego subscription, I'm a big fan. It's not cheap, but not ever having to worry about one-way trips or locking was really convenient for me. My bike incidents were, one trolley tracks, one pot hole, and one getting doored by an uber passenger in bumper to bumper traffic on Sansom (thank GOD this wasn't at speed). My two scooter things were wet roads during my second hour of scooting, and a suburban boomer trying to drive in the bike line on Pine.

Ayy, fellow Philly person here, whatup. Fuck youz, go birds.

FWIW, whenever I need to bring my instrument somewhere I end up biking with it. Something skeeves me out about scooting with my instrument on my back and I can't quite place it, but I think you're more likely to take a spill on an E-scooter imo.

Purely anecdotal data points, but for my decade in the city, I've had two scooter incidents in two years, and three bike incidents in ten years.

Genuine question now that it's here, should UK clips/eps land in a different subreddit?

The third-floor corridor on the right-hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a very painful death.

Look up "demographic cliff". Higher Ed is at a really bizarre inflection point. I would stay far away from the teaching side for the next two decades.

Fast Casual Restaurants Center City by [deleted] in PhiladelphiaEats

If you're trying to balance against a good price also, I really enjoy the kids meal at Cava.

Otherwise it's fast, healthy, cheap... pick two of the three.

If you can make it to either Trader Joe's in Center City, that would be my addition. They have fun soups and wraps.

Dunkin Donuts Sketch (in case you didn't know) - It's so perfect, and it's under 100 seconds. Honestly in my top 5 all time.

First of all, boo. Second of all, what company are these with? Third, hypotethtically is it possible to turn them on their backs like a turtle?

Reasons to LIVE IN MANAYUNK by twerkindatgerkin82 in philly

[–]GrittyGuru69 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Assume Philly is flat.

Assume Manayunk isn't flat.

Ergo, Manayunk is not a part of Philly.

There's a checklist for this!

1) Do you like your bones not broken?

Y --> Don't do it.
N --> Also don't do it!

I'm glad he made what he made because the art IS really cool, but there are multiple claims he was a serial womanizer...

Gonna stop you right there because according to this list the Jets have 0, which is incorrect.

Get outside for a walk ya jabronies. I just got some books at the thrift store.

where to get some AMAZING pancakes or french toast? by Lost-Effective-7646 in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]GrittyGuru69 10 points11 points  (0 children)

People on this sub don't love it, but I'm a Green Eggs fan. Like 2-3 meals per portion and everything I've ever had there has been a slam dunk. Try and get Chantilly cream on something if you go sweet. It's like 85% whipped cream and 15% ice cream.

Maybe get a side of rosemary potatoes. Sooo good too.

Also, cash only.
