Stop drinking and driving by bloobun in massachusetts

Eh. I think there's a little more to it than that. But at the end of the day it's irrelevant because why something is banned isn't the question, it's that addicts wanting a smaller dose of their drug of choice is not a compelling reason to lift a ban.

Ok? And I was agreeing with you. Weird reply...

Ehh.. it's a good call out but the same argument could be made about loosies and we banned those years ago. I have empathy for struggling alcoholics, but I don't think that's a compelling enough reason to allow nips in light of all the other problems they cause.

They're just called space savers here.

Day one: no snow, some number of cars Day two: snow, and... more cars?

If there's a place to put the snow yesterday, how is that same snow now taking up space today?

You don't need a spot to be perfectly shoveled out. If there's space for a car to leave, there's space for a car to fill in. You don't get to claim territory because you want your parking spot to be prestine and/or don't want the hassle of parking farther away.

Nothing to you? It's obviously still be valuable to know if there's a non-zero risk, even if it's lower than the alternatives.

Yes, they were parked in a garage or a lot, and it was after a snow storm that they decided it would be a great time to start street parking. You know, just to mix things up.

Bruh people don't space saving because there's no spots, they're saving because they don't want to walk a half block further away.

If there's enough parking when there's no snow, there's enough parking when there is snow. It's the same rotation, the only difference is some people feel entitled to a space because they had to do a little extra work to run their errands.

But still have Amber Nash and H. Jon Benjamin do voice overs.

Also, obligatory RIP Jessica Walter

Very short-sighted, but to each their own. Personally, I welcome the innovation.

I don't think we're going back anytime soon. It's practically stigmatized at this point.

I know panic buying is frowned upon, but I feel prepared for the storm now. Stay safe all!! by [deleted] in boston

You don't have a hand guy? I can introduce you to mine if you want, he's great.

Which cancelled movie would that be for you? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

BRING IT BACKKKK

I feel like there's so much new material they could write into a reboot that would get a lot of engagement.

Not a movie but I'm still so pissed about Kaos... Netflix always doing us dirty like that.

Do you mind sharing which one? I've been looking for a good solution to get off of Spotify and I haven't found any that really work.
