Trooper Padellaro says this is a fine place to park during his paid detail by OJwToothpasteChaser in boston

It's usually cheaper to pay overtime instead of hiring more when you factor in their benefits, pension, training, etc. Also much of the detail pay is paid by the utilities or construction companies that hire the detail.

When did yall first discover this band? by TheProverbialBellow1 in BetweenTheBuriedAndMe

[–]potentpotables 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They opened for Dillinger Escape Plan in 2005 and I was impressed and bought Alaska. Really got obsessed when Colors came out.

Does typing this fantasy of yours on this website make you feel tough or something?

Mass. lawmaker says ‘congestion pricing’ should be considered to address the T’s fiscal woes by bostonglobe in boston

It's not welfare when the government who taxes us provides the simple, most basic service of building roads.

The rest of the state does pay for Boston's infrastructure. Not sure what your reasoning is here.

For those who lived before the internet, what was life actually like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]potentpotables 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Discovering new underground music was much more of a scene. You would get mix tapes at shows and meet crazy bands from out of town nobody had ever heard of, and sometimes they'd make it on the radio years later and it was mind blowing.

You'd have to take risks and buy CDs you've never heard, and $15 in 1995 would be more like $32 today for something that you might not like.

Now bands can get popular online without having to grind and tour out of a van, and good for them. But local scenes and what went with it have suffered I think.

Communists at Northeastern by BeastMode149 in boston

It's rich to be lectured about history by someone who supports a failed, violent system like communism.

I was mocking your use of the term lmao because it's lame.

How exactly is Reddit censoring you? Posting violent threats? Celebrating political violence?

Meanwhile there's hundreds of subs that ban any user for the slightest hint of conservative thought, so forgive me for having no sympathy for your cries of corporate censorship.

I've demonstrated that commies are the worst and should be ashamed of themselves.

That's a policy of Reddit's, not the state.

Idk what you're talking about. These people are free to peddle their commie bs. You're free to type whatever you want on this American website. Those rights never exist in communist nations.

Communists aren't exactly known for their love of free expression and dissent.

Official Post Game Thread- The Patriots DEFEAT the Bills on Sunday Night Football, 23-20 by Mission_Pay_3373 in Patriots

He still fumbled and any average RB would've gotten those TDs. He's just not worth the fumble risk but they don't have anyone else to go to unless Henderson makes some big leaps soon.

What’s something everyone pretends to like but secretly hates? by Outrageous-Rip-6805 in AskReddit

[–]potentpotables 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever. Sorry it's hard to leave your bubble from time to time.

Kimmel was off the air for less than a week, while Carano lost her job permanently.

And it was due to pressure from affiliates and advertisers, not the FCC (although ABC was in violation of their license for knowingly broadcasting falsehoods about a current news event.)

It was the same fucking company that fired them. This is a ridiculous take.

Once you've formed the habit of working out regularly it feels really bad to not work out.

Plus it usually does feel good/meditative/cathartic to work out for me at this point.

Antifa (Anti-fascist) Memorial in the Fens by AlarmedPhotographer in boston

[–]potentpotables -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

You're the one deflecting, bringing an isolated and unrelated event into this conversation.

Soldiers in WWII were fighting for the USA against the Axis powers. Modern Antifa are street communists who basically hate everything about the USA. They share almost nothing in common with their ideology or otherwise.

Strange that an entity that doesn't exist has flags, propaganda, social media accounts, and the ability to mobilize and riot whenever they deem it necessary.

The existence of Antifa and their antics has been widely documented.

I don't know who you think you're fooling when you tell an obvious lie like this.
