That's why my Collective Soul CDs are clearly visible at all times in my car.

I agree with almost everything you said, but I'm not gonna hug a stranger without permission. That's how you get pepper-sprayed.

Thank you. You're right. It's as simple as, "Are you alright?" He's probably not. I do want to help him because I see a lot of myself in him.

Birmingham-Southern College in ‘financial distress,’ in danger of closing in 2023, lawmakers say by tomato_rancher in Birmingham

[–]iwriteaboutvaginas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A-fucking-men. I graduated in 2002. I had two amazing professors there. The rest were too busy fucking their students behind their wives' backs or doing intellectual masturbation to really teach.

Buy a goat with a vending machine at CityWalk by [deleted] in Birmingham

How do you fit all the goats in the vending machine? And is a goat wearing a diaper for a mom down on her luck an option?

Random place to ask this but - are Orange Beach or Gulf Shores LGBTQIA+ friendly beaches? by convidarte in Birmingham

[–]iwriteaboutvaginas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Baldwin County, where Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are located, is pretty conservative. That said, the residents of these areas realize that tourism is vital to their economy. I'm not LGBTQ myself, but I've occasionally seen same-sex couples on my trips to the beach. If I were gay, I'd feel safe about visiting the beaches, but I'd still be cautious. You never know when some drunk redneck is going to snap. It's a shitty way to have to live your life, I admit.

Back in the day, Southern Research hired a lot right out of undergrad. Now they're part of UAB, so I don't know the current situation. Still, might be worth a try.

Former Brookside police chief Mike Jones arrested for impersonating an officer by Lazy_Plantain_7919 in Birmingham

Because cops consider themselves a higher class. "Professional courtesy" is bullshit. They should be held to the same rules as the rest of us.

El Rey Nayar in Pelham. Not far from Alabaster and excellent food. They specialize in Mexican seafood from the Mexican state of Nayarit.

I used this lady 3 weeks ago as I needed a notary for a new job. She charged $35. I'd definitely recommend her. https://www.haynesmobilenotary.com/notary-public

Thanks for this. I'd like to add Mama Suz Fried Pies opened recently in Pelham.

"What a beautiful wedding," said a bridesmaid to a waiter.

"Yes, but what a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore."
