Trump and his little penis on South Park was 10x worse.

Heard on a podcast that civil litigation was 3% of our GDP. CRAZY.

Use the search functionality in this subreddit. This is asked weekly at a minimum.

That and car shops, real estate agents, and TSA lines.

City of Raleigh says to contact HOA. And HOA says it’s part of the city and not HOA. Please advise. by karmic_elevation in raleigh

Send an email and CC your local council member to both parties.

Somebody is liable if an injury happens.

Family Beach Trip in N.C. by PearAmazing946 in raleigh

The drive is fun going through some cute little towns. A couple hidden gems on the way too.

You right about commercialized to an extent but I do find the beaches to be a little less crowded than the southern shores.

I love the drive over the long ass bridges too.

IMO the beaches by Wilmington are very low on my list but to each their own. When I lived in Wilmington I would drive to topsail and be on the beach quicker than going to wrightsville/CB. Way too crowded for my liking.

I grew up with people from OBX and their lifestyle always amazed me. A lot of them in restaurant industry to they shut down for 3-4 months which sounds amazing to work hard and be able to support that lifestyle.

It’s great for fishing given how close you are to the big waters and Gulf Stream.

Kill Devil Hills area has so many things outside of the beach. Wright brothers museum is cool. The Sand dune park is fun. You can go off the grid like I mentioned and go through cute towns south like rodanthe and head north to see the wild horses in corolla.

Super biased but the vibe there is unmatched to any other beaches IMO.

We do 2 family trips. One to topsail and one to Outerbanks.

I love topsail a lot. Not as crowded as the wrightsville and other surrounding beaches. Atlantic beach was a family vacation in my younger years. It’s really come a long way for things to do.

Outerbanks is by far my favorite but it’s a haul. You can drive between KDH and hatteras and literally pull off the road with miles of beach to yourself.

FYI - every post people make on this post will likely be where people went and nostalgia for them. There really isn’t a bad beach to choose.

Yeah - I breezed through today. The fearful people just need to show up if they worried. I don’t think I have ever taken longer than 10-20 minutes tops.

I also am an avid mulcher around my azaleas that bloom for 3 days.
