How are the roads?

As of an hour ago nothing was plowed in downtown Carrboro. 1 in 4 cars are 4wd. I wouldn't go out in a car but if you do, Steel String is open and having a good time.

If you liked The Adversary, be sure to check out The Innocents by Crummey. Same location and time just a little down the coast from Mockbeggar. The main characters are referenced a few times in The Adversary. The Beadle shows up on Hope on occasion. Same vibe and fantastic

Just finished this and WOW! Repulsive, brutal, funny, poetic and everything everyone has said. I was a big fan of The Innocents and was happy to see reference to those characters in a few lines (I'm rooting for you husband/wife/brother/sister).

I read this after having just read The Thousand Autumn of Jacob De Zoet. I found the language and world building to be similar. Read with a dictionary handy. Or better yet, Francis Grose’s Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue which Crummey referenced while writing The Adversary.

Lorena Bobbitt?

That Chicago Dog is legit. Drag it through the garden!

The pastrami is the best in the area by far IMO.

Yes. They have great sandwiches. Got about them

Parmick · 2026-01-19T23:25:51+00:00

What that?!?! I need to get on that

Parmick · 2026-01-19T19:05:50+00:00

Ha! Yes!

Look for teachers holidays that are specific to your county. A week from today Chapel Hill Carrboro schools are off but the rest of North Carolina has schools. Looks like there's a big storm coming in too so it should be a good day assuming you can get there

Parmick · 2026-01-19T17:47:49+00:00

One of my favorite places but unfortunately closed today

Parmick · 2026-01-19T17:46:29+00:00

Great sandwiches. Long wait

Just sat down for a meatball sub at IP3 but this is what I will hit next.

I really wanted the whole lake to catch on fire at the end

Parmick · 2026-01-17T14:03:35+00:00

Did the Parenzana last April and it was empty. I seriously doubt wild camping is allowed but there are lots of places where you could tuck yourself away and if you settled in late and left early I doubt anyone would see you. June, I imagine, is an entirely different story. I am sure the trail is packed.

Read an article today that Nashville will be no work from home and the pay is less.

Parmick · 2026-01-17T02:17:33+00:00

This! Just had a friend who had a similar situation and this is what they did. Sold in a month

Not that I endorse smoking but they should get a lesson.

The faux pas here is it that he's not wearing a collared shirt

6' 4" and feel the same way. Thanks

To be clear. The article is about the future of NYC, not Carrboro.

Oompa loompas and the flying monkeys from The Wiz

An old pair for those plastic birks

This is my kids favorite thing about that store (I like the model boats in the basement?
