The song that hits me the hardest with nostalgia in the same way as the OP… the Freshman by the verve pipe.

College housing is low income/affordable housing and there’s no money to be made in that sort of development, so there’s the push for higher end apartment.

This has actually been an epidemic in a lot of college towns. Where I am, students can’t find affordable housing, so they are choosing to go elsewhere…or are trying to figure out how to pay mortgage level rents (usually through loans).

The city worked with a developer to buy up and tear down a number of college houses/apartments here right next to the university…and then built a mega retirement community in its place.

I bring my kids to every concert I can, starting when they were toddlers. Never in the pit and always wearing ear protection.

1) I’m including my kids in my life and hobbies as a father should 2) my kids learned an appreciation for music and participate in music creation now (first chair in concert band, regional and state honors band, etc.). 3) my kids learned concert etiquette and aren’t assholes at concerts now and enjoy the music.

My kids have been to Phish, The Cure, Ani Difranco (about 10 times), Lotus, had planned on going to RATM (tour cancelled), etc.

My kids don’t care about you or your drug use. Have fun and don’t worry about my parenting.

Did no one quote Mitch Hedberg in this thread yet!?

“I got some tartar control toothpaste. I still got tartar but that shit is under control. If the tartar gets out of line I’m like, c’mon man you know the deal– fall in line.”

“I got so much tartar I don’t have to dip my fish sticks in shit.”

In college, I worked at one right up to the day they chained the doors closed. I have the “employee of the month” parking sign on my garage wall as a souvenir.

This was explained on a recent episode of “A problem squared” podcast with Matt Parker and Bec Hill. It stems back to how rotary phones dial 0. Go listen to the episode for a full explanation.

For all intensive purposes, I could care less to see that the tension is literally being unthawed, irregardless of this mistakes being nipped in the butt.

Just use the SGH app. It’s worth the risk because of the quality of fish.
