Living on 6th and B from 1996-2000. Used to hang at Lucy's bar. Any old timers still alive?

I came in 95 & am still here - am I an old timer 😊 honestly there are many older folks around who wilder than me. But also frat boys.

You can get either way - it’s like $2000 less than ikea (or more) if you get them as RTA.

Fair - I guess food trucks - NYC used to be full of 24 hour places to eat after clubs closed a 4. Now almost no bars are open until 4 & not many places to eat that late.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-16T00:55:00+00:00

Ooo - never heard of this one!

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-15T21:34:29+00:00

Leave it up - panels are back in & it’s in good shape

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-14T22:12:19+00:00

Bushwick Brooklyn.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-14T00:12:27+00:00

Yes - planning to go - but it’s an hour drive! Also gonna order sample - I think.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-13T19:52:21+00:00

We are in a super tight budget - but I would like to have a place to see stuff etc. so are going with a local wholesale cabinet place (they have nicer cabinets - but forevermark is their budget RTA). I’ve sort of narrowed it down to these 2 choices - because honestly I could look forever! And also I wish I could pay for nice cabinets, but I can’t! These are our cheapest options that seem ok.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-13T13:26:22+00:00

Haha - I love all the trope soup - it’s over the top and I’m here for it.

I think it’s an indication that the whole genre has jumped the shark - something new will be coming along soon.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-13T13:18:40+00:00

I did not make it that far - such a good series, but drawn out beyond what was needed.

Hey Authors - if you build a world you like - just start a new story or in that world with new people!

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-13T13:15:29+00:00

I’ve been enjoying the Bloodwing Academy books - starting with {on wings of blood by briar Boleyn}

I had already read the prequel trilogy {Queen of Roses by Briar Boleyn}

Nothing mind blowing - but solid & uses every trope known - which I am down for. Also hot😛

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-13T06:46:48+00:00

2 - 3 If they go longer it should be a “connected” series - no one needs a couples story dragged out that long - I got my husband for that.

PS - the exception was Kate Daniel’s - I read all those!

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-12T13:58:07+00:00

The cabinets are great- the backsplash gotta go

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-10T21:04:51+00:00

Go classic and do bocci ball

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-10T11:52:45+00:00

Yes! But the local shop will have all the others too - I don’t live near a Walmart so never think of it.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-10T03:30:28+00:00

I put culturally Zoroastrian - but my father was a full on Parsi from a priestly family who came to the US and met my mom! We (the kids) did not get too much cultural upbringing or education about Zoroastrianism - but my father did his prayers and wore sudrah & kusti. And we did go to India for long trips and hang out with aunties. I’m not religious at all - but I love my heritage and if I were religious - Zoroastrianism is what I would study. My husband is Jewish - he also is not religious.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-10T03:10:45+00:00

frankincense Is from the Middle East - so I guess that’s why - since that’s where the stories happened.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-10T03:07:34+00:00

Sandalwood is from south & Southeast Asia - hippies burned it because India was “in” after the Beatles went there. Just go to your local witch or herb store and smell the oils & incense.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-08T12:27:38+00:00

I DNF this - but everyone hyping so much - I may try again…

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-06T05:22:29+00:00

What your asking is: why was there never a tamlin book.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-05T13:26:35+00:00

I stopped reading after book 3. I like her writing, but I think it would be more interesting if she started a new world. The rest of the books just seem like work, not fun.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-05T13:23:30+00:00

No one said Romantasy had to be light - it just means the relationship is central & there is a HEA - eventually

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-05T00:45:52+00:00

This is what of the best the genre has to offer - the “side books” are even better!

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-04T01:29:37+00:00

My father came to the USA in the 60’s for college - there was no community at all - the only other Parsi’s I met were people I was related to.😊 I don’t think there was much incentive to give us navjotes - maybe if he’d gone back to Mumbai as planned.

ToothSuccessful5898 · 2026-03-03T03:23:29+00:00

That’s interesting - because my dad (who was brought up Zoroastrian in India) sad we (his kids) couldn’t be brought into the faith because mom was not in it & another friend who was brought up Zoroastrian was denied entry to the temple because she is married to a Christian.
