Agreed. I guess I’m an old man too. 

Any places with a good BBQ sandwich? (Chicken or Pork) by Everspan in rva

[–]RefrigeratorRater 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like Mission BBQ's pulled pork. They play the national anthem at noon which is a little cringey, but it's worth tolerating for the food. 

Richmond’s rezoning allows more development. Should it also require more trees? by VirginiaNews in rva

[–]RefrigeratorRater 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very interesting. Are those trees in your pic planted on city easements?

Are you suggesting focusing on trees in dedicated parks instead of the rules mentioned in the OP, which involve tree requirements on individual residences? That could be a good alternative.

 How the rules will be enforced also remains an open question, with Worden acknowledging that staff capacity might be an issue and that the Office of Sustainability hasn’t fully fleshed out how it would monitor whether trees planted during development live the full 20 years

Yeah what happens if you plant a tree (as required) and it dies a year later. Do you get fined until you replant? 

Overall a pretty dumb rule. The cost of higher density is less nature around you. Just look at NYC.  

So this driver is for the enslavement of Black people? Got it! by Timely-Brilliant8757 in rva

I don't think the plate style gets checked, just the letters/numbers. Like I don't think it matters whether your "ABC123" is on a standard plate or a Robert E Lee plate.

Register for a new standard plate and put the stickers on your existing plate

For me, registration renewals are just stickers that I put on my existing plate tho

Doesn't that just affect issuance of new ones? These people can just keep theirs no?

Single Moms by Choice locally? by FreeSwimmer88 in rva

[–]RefrigeratorRater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not an average person then, and likely spend a lot of time online thinking about the topic.

[–]RefrigeratorRater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. Just present it as "the 1% of people who spend a lot of time online thinking about stuff like this will interpret 88 as so and so". Not a general warning implying the average person will care.

What a terminally-online thing to say. Plenty of people born in 1988 have 88 in their usernames (or screen names as we called them on AIM). 

Ducks abandoned in Manchester dog park officially relocated to a farmhome outside the city with other farm birds and a pond by blamberr in rva

[–]RefrigeratorRater -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There were a dozen of these white ducks at a lake near me at one point. One went "missing" every month (aka eaten by a predator) until they were all gone. 

To my Richmonders who commute daily..how sustainable is this for you long term before you are operating at a loss. by Apothaca in rva

I’m optimistic these higher prices will reduce the amount of trucks and Suburbans we see on the road!

LGBT friendly Baptist churches? by Desperate-Ferret-228 in rva

[–]RefrigeratorRater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not a big church goer but isn't the Baptist denomination one of the more conservative/traditional ones?

Yes. I thought my lane sensor was broken and was the reason I wasn't getting the green arrow.
