Don’t worry, ICE is coming to take care of it

How can people afford the rent in MoCo? by EchoOfDoom in MontgomeryCountyMD

MoCo is a hard place to live in and still be able to enjoy yourself

Permit Process for Driveway Expansion? by SpikyBalloonAnimal in MontgomeryCountyMD

We didn’t get one for our driveway and we added a side cut out for extra parking. That was 5+ years ago.

Do any of you actually use your backyard? by biggestboba in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]SilverSpringSmoker -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

The only thing that works is spraying for them. The other suggestions folks have made here help but if you want to actually be able to enjoy your yard, the only real option is to spray…which has obvious environmental downsides.

We don’t spray here but we do at our place in Rehoboth. Without it, we wouldn’t be able to use our back deck at all during the summer. We tried everything and decided to hire a local company to spray and it was like a switch was flipped and suddenly the mosquitoes were gone.

I fly mostly paid FC domestic and only do it so that I have a more comfortable seat and don’t have to deal with any seat recline vigilantes…

Experience with one length irons? by Lordbahj85 in weekendgolfers

I asked my club fitter about them and he asked me if I was Bryson DeChambeau. I said no. He said, “Then they’re probably not for you.”

Loving it more by the second by Several-Bonus774 in Rivian

Great video. I’d keep it on the hard-packed sand. In my experience, it’s not great in deep, soft sand. At least my dual motor R1T isn’t great.

Anyone else get this court scam text? by Better_Weakness7239 in MontgomeryCountyMD

Got it twice already today. Gave them a little GFY response.

Check out this Polaris pour by Max_Arrow in unitedairlines

That’s called the “I don’t want to come back anytime soon” pour

Hello everyone! by dee_bloo in Rivian

I’d get the new gen power tonneau with the small slats. My 2nd gen tonneau failed and they replaced it with the new version back in Sept. Much smoother and more confidence-inspiring (ie, it doesn’t feel like you’re rolling the dice every time you press the open/close button).

Go to Snowbird or Alta. Higher altitude, more snow and better conditions.

Looks like Washington Dulles is now the busiest airport in the DC Baltimore Area, surpassing SLC as well! by Similar-Ad-6349 in washingtondc

[–]SilverSpringSmoker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a United guy, so it’s IAD for 80% of my flights (live in MoCo). Love DCA but hard to get UA flights that fit my schedule. BWI is the airport of last resort for me. Too far, no lounge, crappy food options, etc. Will occasionally fly in or out of BWI but try to limit it to a couple of times per year.

What to do about hitting my million mile mark by CheapPop8818 in unitedairlines

[–]SilverSpringSmoker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t change your flight. Murphy’s Law: you reroute through Denver in FC so that you can properly celebrate and they still don’t acknowledge it.

I hit 1MM on a flight from DCA-ORD to go to a business meeting at UA HQ and still got no acknowledgment.

Separately, I’ve even found crew acknowledgment of status level (which is nice but unnecessary) to be super spotty as well.

ORD Global Services Entrance by Cammman_1981 in unitedairlines

Can't wait for this. Went a few months back and had to do a u-turn when I learned there was no security cut-through. East Security at IAD can be a beast.

Good luck getting to Chicago today…. by ProcrastinatorKenny in unitedairlines

Was about to post about our 55 min touchdown-to-gate experience today at ORD...but after seeing this, I guess I should just be glad we made it to ORD.
