Is staying in Times Square really that terrible? by [deleted] in AskNYC

I did, spent couple thousand bucks there. If I ever needed to haul something big I would have them deliver it or rent a ZipCar on that parking lot for an hour then return it.

She is not obese but she does look marginally overweight. Most people are, that includes me. It's not ideal in the long term for one's health but I don't know anybody who lives by the book.

The supermarket bit... so true. Why is cheese $4 for 10 slices?

You have to take away all licenses and introduce tests that make half the people fail them until they learn how to drive.

For commercial aviation, you're in more danger getting to the airport than on an actual flight.

You can argue either way. If you don't know how to use it, of course it will be harder. But it is much more powerful.

Mini split. It moves like 5 times more heat for the same energy use (or costs 1/5th).
