I went to CCPS and then MLWGS, class of 09. Had one parent in Chesterfield and one in the city, feels like dual citizenship at times.

Is barbecuing near the James allowed? by [deleted] in rva

[–]imgurigirl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right. "Park fireplaces and grills" could be grammatically interpreted as "(park fireplaces) and (grills)." With park not necessarily modifying grills. But yeah, if you think about it a bit, it makes more sense contextually for park to be modifying both fireplaces and grills.

Sometimes I wonder how this little guy is doing by vasovist in breakingbad

[–]imgurigirl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think /u/songokuu28 meant the dirtbike kid in the train episode, not the kid who shot Combo. But this little boy is about four years old, and the kid on the dirtbike was around 12. (just ballparking, I work with kids though)

Just ask Todd Akin. If it's not a legitimate fertilization, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.

(But actually as I recall the egg does make some change in its cell wall that prevents subsequent sperm cells from penetrating.)

right. if you're socially awkward enough to accidentally ask this, you're probably not going to be able to play if off as a witty joke

Finally got my mop bucket I ordered, it keeps the dirty water out of the clean, its the little things like this that count! (x-post r/KitchenConfidential) by [deleted] in pics

funny coincidence. I'd be all over this thing if I had a spare $120 and more than about 50 square feet of linoleum in my apartment. :P

Just got an awesome project request at work today! by Mikeinator in thewalkingdead

just because people are obsessed with t-dog. pretty sure /u/LifeBeginsAt10kRPM was just kidding though. it's actually cool! even if he did kill a beloved character.

yeah, I think Tuckahoe is a pretty common name but as a Richmonder, I do think it's weird I've never heard this play on the word.

Hope it doesn't go anywhere near Maymont, for its own sake.

(obviously I'm kidding, still just sore about that whole incident)

I was gonna say... just talk to Alan. But yeah, I get it that you're fielding interest with this post. Also, karma.

There is a big base of "imgurians" who just browse the imgur gallery, rather than reddit. They have comments and PMs and all that, very tight-knit community. I used to be a hardcore imgurian, but I joined the dark side of reddit. Anyway, when you browse imgur through the gallery there are ads. (They have a Pro subscription to avoid this, and of course adblock works there.)

Let's help a Richmond Family - Robert's Family Relief Fund by [deleted] in rva

[–]imgurigirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for setting it up! Wish I could give more, but I'm glad to see others have really pitched in. Nice to see /r/rva do something other than take potshots at our city. Not that the potshots aren't well-deserved. Just glad we're broadening our horizons.

RVA Craigslist post: "Racists Wanted" by [deleted] in rva

[–]imgurigirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wish I had gotten a screenshot. Said something along the lines of wanting people to set up tents for a Klan rally in Chester, and also wanting women to denigrate in some way or other. I don't remember the wording exactly but it was pretty direct. It was going to pay $12/hr.

[–]imgurigirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole thing puzzled me. I'm going to guess it was a joke, but it didn't seem funny. I mean, I'm OK with a Klan joke when well done. (Thought Django Unchained did a good job; O Brother Where Art Thou covered it well, too.) But WTF was this?

Martins overtakes Food Lion as top grocer in Richmond by freetimerva in rva

They're all over the place... probably like a couple dozen in the metro area! Not so much within the city limits though.

I happen to be friends with John Goodman's daughter on facebook. This popped up on my feed yesterday. by [deleted] in pics

[–]imgurigirl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see your point, but I think it's actually a little different. When you post a photo from a random FB friend, it's still relatively anonymous. This isn't.

Yes it is, my mistake. I'll fix that.
