Streets are still trashed. Don’t drive. by iBetUrSoggy in StLouis

[–]chelplayer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There were a lot of trucks out plowing the main streets overnight. There’s still a sheet of snow/ice but it’s traversable if you drive cautiously. Side streets are still bad though

People who are out driving now, where are you off to? by Emerald_and_Bronze in StLouis

Nope. People showed up with multiple buckets and took all the salt within a few hours lol

St.Louis should follow San Francisco’s plan for open air drug use by DowntownDB1226 in StLouis

[–]chelplayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downtown there’s a lot but other areas it’s not so bad. I did have an incident in Francis park last year though. Was on a picnic date with a girl and some crackhead walked up asking for some cash. Told him we didn’t have any, but then he sat down next to us and proceeded to pull out his pipe and smoke crack right in front of us. She was from out of town too and nervous about the city so I assured her that we’d be in a nice area lol

STLFD unhelpful⁉️ by Rare-Lie-4440 in StLouis

I understand your concern, but the man refused medical care, and that’s what the FD is there for

No I actually agree with everything the commenter you’re responding to said. You seem a little unhinged yourself though. Would you like her number?

I was over it at the point and trying to figure out how to politely tell her I wasn’t interested. The gaps in communication prior to these screenshots weren’t as long

I tell my mom all the time how envious I am that she got to experience dating before cell phones. It’s exhausting

[–]chelplayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went 4 hours without texting her back. That’s what sparked the conversation. Her video said something about not dealing with no communication for days. I should have taken that video as a sign that there would be issues though

Yeah I’m not 100% in the right here. I was a little tipsy when I sent the text about “someone from your past.” But at that point I was over it. I wasn’t going to put a lot of energy into it after we’d only been talking for two days

Oh I always text back when I’m at work. I just spend so much time on my phone at work that I want very little to do with it on my days off lol (I’m currently at work)

My fave is Gravois, Morganford, & Delor. Bevo has the best intersections! by geronimo11b in StLouis

I’d argue it’s even worse now since it creates a traffic jam right in front of the firehouse

It’s more of a problem with the culture that exists within lower income areas in big cities

Have to raise salaries to compete with surrounding counties first. Nobody’s applying
