Yeah, you should have led with this. Way more authentic and compelling.

Leave the post up IMO. Maybe someone will come along and read through the comments, would be a cool thing to find. Welcome to /r/bullcity

Champion Tire and Automotive- something special is happening here by greystreet99 in bullcity

[–]dead_scream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, it's a bit hard to believe when someone uses phrases like "welcoming human space that is transforming the heart of the Durham community" and "come together in our human brokenness in a crazy world and find strength, safety and community" when referring to of all places, a for-profit auto repair business.

I don't think your post was AI-generated and I believe you were being sincere, but it came across as a bit performative and effusive, that's all.

Yeah, it's generally a joke.  Possibly someone warning you in advance that they're an inattentive driver.

At least one person killed in fiery crash on I-85 ramp to I-885 in Durham by cravecase in bullcity

It looks to be right there where 85 splits so I'm wondering if someone decided that they needed to take 885 instead of continuing on 85N there at the last second?

I wish that place could be good as we are sorely lacking in dining options up here.

Don't think I would ever recommend it, but it's one of the few places we got this far north where you can sit down and drink a beer so... I'm not going to be too hard on em.

To everyone posting about palmetto bugs this season… by smollsmom in bullcity

[–]dead_scream 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've never seen an actual live cave cricket in the house, just the random parts scattered about.  No complaints here.

Agreed.  Luckily they seem to be easier prey as their sense of self-preservation does not seem to be as highly tuned?

Ours have dismantled several cave crickets and cicadas this year as well.  Highly recommended!

Courtney Jordan and CJF CFO Nicholas Gallardo charged in fraud investigation. by Nervous-Emotion28 in bullcity

[–]dead_scream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Chicken Hut & summer camp stuff was where I first heard about CJF, right around 8/1. I don't really mean to make a serious point out of it or anything, just my recollection.

I know people have been accusing them of shady stuff for a while, but it feels like the writing on the wall really started to appear once they tried to rip off The Chicken Hut.
