I don't like Republicans and my personal political beliefs do not lean at all towards the right but maybe "actually my political beliefs are objectively correct and good and my opponents are objectively bad" is a take that should be evaluated more

Okay, but most of the people who show up in the stories in this thread get hosed by the republican party as hard as any democrat does. They're not the ones voting on legislature and most of them probably don't even KNOW who their legislators are or what they voted on. They're like the people living everywhere who root for their state school's football team despite never had attended that school. They don't really have a stake, don't really know what they're supporting, they just want to be part of a crowd.

There's some cameras peeking out the apartment building across the street from mine. They're been there a while. I finally got the opportunity to ask the people in that apartment, hey, wtf is with those cameras? Turns out someone in my building has a kid who just learned to drive. But they're not the best driver, so they tend to rear end parked cars, get too close and scratch up cars, etc. The parents and the kid deny it, so the people got cameras to record the street, and their cars parked on the street.

In summary: get cameras, threaten to sue, hope the car damagers aren't homocidal bostoners, smoke weed everyday.

I don't know why I'm giving advice like they can see it.

To be clear, I meant that ramming someone's car could get you stabbed. People get into fistfights over parking spots in this city.

Boston is not especially stabby in general despite that, but yeah who politely asks someone to please stop damaging their car? If they cares about the owner's thoughts on the matter, they wouldn't be ramming their way into a parking spot.

Yeah... you'd think after the first time she might reevaluate her feelings and consider that the whole thing should just stay as a fantasy inside her head to get off to, rather than a relationship ruining reality.

She's not very smart. Especially since she told them to keep loving as she went to the bathroom to sob about them loving. He's dumb for doing it again after she melted down the first time. The friend is REALLY dumb for getting mixed up in it.

I hate this emote. It seems inherently sarcastic but half the time people mean it seriously. For that reason it is impossible to understand the intent behind it. You could be saying “that’s stupid” or “that’s right” or anything in between.

You probably mean it sarcastically here given that salty josh is terrible, but still.

Blade Runner, you're talking about NYU students, we all know they're bougie trash anyway. Hang out in the boroughs more, Manhattan is for scrubs, you may as well be comparing poo poo to Disneyland.

Elmhurst, Queens is one of the most diverse zip codes in the world. There's a reason they elected Ocasio-Cortez and it's because they're sick of the rich people poo poo mucking up the actual political needs. I mean, the NY govt can't even agree on who has to pay to maintain the MTA, and upstaters are such shitheads, they'll suck up all that sweet NYC tourist tax money to the state but they don't wanna pay back in.

You may have lived there your whole life but you sound like you've managed to keep your community constrained to People Very Much Like You.
