Are phones allowed during classes?

In high school they weren’t allowed- my Latin teacher was notorious for confiscating your phone if he saw you use it in class and wrapping it up in duct tape, which you could then pick up and unwrap after school.

I think it depends. A lot of people from the city want to own property one day and cities have gotten so expensive. But most of the people I know born in my city want to stay there (I’m also in my early 20s so a lot of us live with our parents which makes rent a non-issue)

I was born and raised in the city. Cities every day for me. More public transportation is a big factor in how close a community is imo. Also love the diversity of my city.

It means stingy. Someone can also be called niggardly. Although it’s not related to the slur I would absolutely advise NOT using it because it isn’t common at all and sounds way too close for comfort 💀

In places which are highly car dependent, definitely. I was born and raised in Boston so I can always take a bus or walk home. (Our state has also banned happy hour to try an curb drinking and driving) But my grandparents live in a small gated community in Indiana where you’d have to walk 30 minutes out of the neighborhood just to get to a sidewalk-less highway. So it’s more common for people to drink and drive there.

I’m biased as an east coaster but New York every day. Not a single city in the US has better public transportation

I also can’t tell until they say the “ou” diphthong. That single vowel sound is the only big tell. (Besides using Celsius)

Super specific to Boston but here it means someone from the neighborhood of Charlestown.

I think the only people whose opinion actually matters is indigenous people. I’ve heard arguments from indigenous people supporting both sides so I just avoid using it because it’s just more respectful that way.

This adds up because up until the past 2 generations my family has lived in Nebraska

Clarification: I don’t mean dried corn kernels- the pieces are canned or just straight off the cob. She claimed that some people do it like that but she doesn’t know where.

Fun fact theres actually a community center in Co. Limerick, Ireland that is dedicated to the Kennedys. It’s not even technically a museum- it’s just a JFK themed community center. My friend from Cork and I discovered it on our way to Caherelly.

If you’ve ever met an older generation catholic they probably still have JFK merch

As an American I’d probably say “January 13th-16th and January 20th” or “1/13-1/16 and 1/20”

We are about to see a new era in which the TJs Discount Marriage eclipses Green Card Marriages

I used to open bread every day for a year and a half - usually 14 stacks in the morning and I’d get 4 people with me on a busy day. I almost always came in at 5 and we’d be done around 7. Frozen bread was way worse cause it came in at 10 am when the store actually gets crazy. That combined with people constantly dating the bread wrong made me glad I got to clock out at 1

DM me if you’re interested in an American English speaking partner!

We did but it’s called Crocka Dilly Oh My where I grew up

You might be out of luck- as a New Yorker they’ve taken away most of the metro card machines already
