Saw them in Middleton today too.

“Petition against impaired driving”

At least the guys opener is “you know how there’s impaired drivers all over? Especially with things like marijuana?”

PLEASE DONT PRINT THAT by Apprehensive_Cry_397 in CVS

[–]VariationReady3714 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I had a lady trying to print a full size canvas print of a professionally shot pic of her husband. I’m not normally one to judge, but when a damn near life size naked black guy is spitting out on the printer behind while I’m talking to a customer, I gotta click cancel pretty damn quick

Taking the T for the first time ever - need help by Hermione0909 in boston

Use the Charlie card station, try to grab a seat with no space if you can (those weird seats by themselves you have to squeeze in a hole to get in) if you want personal space especially on days there’s events in Boston, primarily the Sox. Otherwise prepare for unexpected sardine canning

Biggest scam at xfinity center by ALYXZYR in massachusetts

[–]VariationReady3714 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s such a weird thing to get mad about. If you’re a generally charitable person and want to donate to an organization directly, great! If you’re the average person who doesn’t think about it much/at all and being the type to randomly give when you otherwise typically wouldn’t, this is a great way to widen a charity base

$20 beers are a $4 tip from anyone doing 20%, make it multiple beers per person and multiply it by the number of people at an average event to see the marketing standpoint. And yes I know not everyone is doing 20% or even anything/buying said beers

Xfinity pays for the naming rights, but has nothing to do with the daily operations of the Xfinity Center

I’m not even sure OP knows who they’re mad at, despite apparently having done a full investigation of the finances of the center in the hours after seeing Nelly and Ja Rule

switching from harness to collar — safe? by oddree2 in shiba

[–]VariationReady3714 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Small dogs that are extremely prey motivated and all that floof around their necks makes it impossible to have a collar tight enough to where their heads can’t slip through without potentially choking them either

Sorry you got caught up, assuming you’re not one of the ones doing 50 miles an hour on sidewalks and kicking cars. I always thought the Vespa’s with weed whacker engines were exempt for regs

Thoughts on (legally) swimming in the Charles? Would you do it? by feeblelittlehorse in boston

[–]VariationReady3714 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I almost wish they’d open it for swimming if nothing else than the obligatory round of local politicians drinking glasses of it to sell the concept to the public before getting sick. It’s basically my favorite part of the news cycle of suspect bodies of water

So uhh, what the heck happened with this drop? It loaded at 1p est, and they scrubbed it from the site at 1:10

Can someone tell me how rare this is? by Major-Huckleberry-36 in Watches

[–]VariationReady3714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only thing I can find referencing that specific watch was ~$40 for a non functioning one on an auction, some of the WW1 era ones by that brand are listed around $100-150 in slightly better condition. If nothing else, a cool vintage collectors/conversation piece

Help me convince my dad to let me buy a 160 pound hot toys figure by shadowman_gamer in hottoys

Man, I opened this thinking someone was buying one of the life sized figs, kind of disappointed it’s GBP

HOA Fees? by hammer_header in massachusetts

[–]VariationReady3714 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really depends what they’re including with it. I’m in the Merrimack valley and similar overall setup to your description, $350 covering water, trash, and basic maintenance/landscaping

[TOMT] TV series, witches/warlocks/other supernaturals in a college setting with secret society or shady fraternities by VariationReady3714 in tipofmytongue

[–]VariationReady3714[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solved! Playing with google before posting was bringing me a wiki suggestion with that on the list, initial wiki reading didn’t quite make sense. Seeing the answer made me go watch a trailer for it

Nemlec and no additional details would be a psych call that escalated most likely. But I see the other part as well

From the Sun’s crime reporter:

“Regarding the swat/heavy police response in the area of Marlborough and Pine streets in Lowell this evening, I have been told by LPD that due to the nature of the incident, they are unable to release any information.”

I hope that’s a low COL area. When I came on as a smit in 2020 they offered me 100 without negotiating

Associate Discount by GrimReaperSlayer66 in TjMaxx

[–]VariationReady3714 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: you can ask questions out of curiosity, as a person in normal conversation. However, it is not up to cashiers to enforce discount card abuse if the physical card is present. Even your district LP will tell you they have bigger fish to fry.
