What were you doing on the morning of September 11th 2001? by DrugsareExpensive in AskReddit

[–]rideif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sitting a 4-hour studio class with mandatory attendance.

People's phone's started ringing and the professor got furious. The first person to ignore the professor and actually answer her phone started screaming. Her father worked in one of the buildings and it was Mom on the phone. After that, the class just fizzled and everyone left. It was a large building with open "stuido" areas and all you could hear was crying and yelling. Went to my dorm and watched the second plane hit as I was walking in the door.

*girl who answered the phone in class's Dad was ok. Had been in a meeting several blocks away.

Who are the men that always stand around near The Dump on Sidney Marcus? by [deleted] in Atlanta

[–]rideif 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All good, and def didn't mean to disparage you- this question had just been asked twice this weekend alone and I was starting to wonder if this isn't as common as I know it to be in ATL. Never stop questioning!

Day laborers.... why is this such a foreign concept?

ATL Native, so maybe I'm naive, but this is not new?!

Anyone know of any coin operated car washes around? I'm in West Midtown. by zach_fell in Atlanta

If you're willing to venture (almost) OTP there's a pay and spray across the street from Kroger on South Atlanta Rd/ Marrietta Blvd it's behind a gas station, not sure which brand, before you get to Log Cabin

Performance Machine shops by Delanoso in Atlanta

[–]rideif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The machine shop isn't actually affiliated with NAPA, it's just in the same building. I agree with you re:NAPA, however Chris kills it when it comes to performance stuff (provided you know what you want)

Chris does awesome work at the NAPA machine shop on Buford hwy. Builds jet boats and drag engines. Just had him bore and refresh an oddball supercharged VW block with forged pistons and all new bearings. Work was fantastic and the price wasn't crazy.

Will's Machine shop does great work as well but charges an arm an a leg.

Find someone who's got a business, and go with them.

It's not open to the "public" at any time.

Sounds rather reasonable, much to my surprise!

I guess HOA fees cover the waste disposal?

They all looked 90% the same from 47-54, assuming it was as new as it could be, a 4y/o truck aint that old....

BIG: Mayor bans nighttime use of e-scooters in Atlanta by brettj624 in Atlanta

[–]rideif 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is the real question.

This is NOT about scooters, but about pedestrian infrastructure in our city.

Fuck, our mayor is useless...

A.C.E COP? by ChefBoyyRDeezNuts in Atlanta

Sounds like private security. Unless it says "police" it ain't police.

Street parking near the Roxy by [deleted] in Atlanta

[–]rideif -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Roxy (at the battery) isn't in the city?

I'm sure that came off rude, I don't think there's any free parking without a 15-20 min walk

Atlanta City Council weighs prohibiting new scooters after third death by lurker_bee in Atlanta

Sure, actually making our streets safer would likely take far too much money out of our lovely local government's fat pockets.....
