Where I live, we have a geese overpopulation problem. The city parks department has started removing some eggs from a nest and replacing those with ceramic eggs. Other eggs are coated in oil to prevent them from hatching. Also, CHUDs have been seen flying through geese families crossing the road, seeing how many they can kill. Totally normal, cool and healthy society.

thankfully driving a car is totally safe and you aren't at the mercy of drunk, high, violent, angry, homicidal people. why i just read a story where a person driving a car 90 mph blew through an intersection and didn't hurt or kill anyone, even though they crashed their car. just goes to show.

It was playing for the entire 90 mile journey. I'm pretty sure the guy was doing 100 mph the whole time with this loving alarm blaring. Lovely. must be one of those people who have a smoke detector in their house beeping 24/7 who just somehow ignore it distortion park posted:Greatest city in the world why does every street in NYC have piles of garbage strewn all over it?

Since this thread appears to have some NY garbage experts: Someone who just moved in to my building regularly puts their trash out in the hallway for a day or two before they take it down to the actual trash bin outside. This feels like a NY thing for some reason, but I have only lived in civilized places so I have not encountered it before. Is it a NY thing?

honestly man i work at a venue and have people going nuts about parking every day and it drives me up the wall. i have a big note on every piece of email you get from me, from receipts, confirmations, to reservation reminders that parking sucks. if you have problems with finding parking in the city either due to nerves, skill, or becuase your car is a super-stretch hummer then i suggest taking a cab or rideshare. you're grown rear end adults, dont ask me how to park in the city. can i park on the street? is it legal? read the sign dipshit, like everybody else. people are such babies. oh no parking is too hard? well come to my government meetings where i regularly call for streets to be pedestrianized. lets go. be the change you want to see in the world. parking make you nervous? well, lets get rid of cars. EASY.

EASY. The venue I work at is literally connected to a subway stop, which is a twenty minute journey from a ($5 at peak!) park-and-ride right. The park-and-ride is right next to the same off-ramp that you use to go into the city, and driving from there to us usually takes about forty-five minutes. And then they still have to try to park in our tiny underground parking garage (for $25 lol), and then when they're inevitably late they yell at us about how inaccessible we are.

At work we occasionally block off street parking when we need to get at the utilities under the road and there is not much that makes people as red and mad as losing their parking. People who live in the suburbs don't care but people who live in extremely dense urban areas where thier car is totally optional lose their minds. It rules because there is no accommodation that can be made. You made yourself a slave to your car, figure it out.

we resurfaced one of our parking lots last week and for three days people were asked to park across the street and walk over instead. It's a very short walk, maybe the equivalent of two blocks total. the amount of people parked in the grass, on loading docks, in fire lanes, etc. around the building just to avoid 5 minutes of walking was crazy lol

People on my street will lose their loving minds if you park in front of their house, I had an old man come down and ring my doorbell and scream in rage into the camera for a minute straight about it. Walking a half block is too much work but walking down to my house and up two flights of stairs to scream into my doorbell camera is just fine.

Walking a half block is too much work but walking down to my house and up two flights of stairs to scream into my doorbell camera is just fine. I went to a house party in Redmond one time (full of rich tech assholes), and watched the guy next door back into someone's truck (at very low speed, and it was a decades-old beat-to-poo poo pickup). I asked around at the party if it belonged to anyone there, no one spoke up. Awhile later, a pair of cops show up at the door, and as the soberest one there, I was assigned to answer the door. The cops told me that the guy next door was upset that someone had parked in front of his house, so had decided to pin the car in by pulling his cars out of his multi-car garage, but then while he was doing that had hit the car, so he called the cops (turns out the dude was at the party, just very drunk). Tried to convince the dude to put in a claim on his insurance just to gently caress the guy, but he wouldn't do it.

The old bitch who owns the house next to me left this long rambling voicemail on my phone about the car parked in front of her house, even blaming me for it because I didn't want to talk to her about it. She called the cops, installed "no parking" signs everywhere, and then had the car illegally towed. She doesn't even live there! It's an empty house!!!

Last summer we moved to a less dense, single family home part of the city & it shocked me the first time I looked out the window and thought "who the gently caress parked in front of my house.

Also they will probably decide you're there to rob them and call the police or try to shoot you or something. there was some story from SF about a street which did actually own the road (some private street thing) and then flipped out when the gov repossessed and was going to make it public it because they hadn't been paying the taxes on it for years
