I haven't lived yet in a city with a metro. How are you grocery shopping? Do you just have it delivered?

Same: We got rid of our cars knowing they’d be broken into, parking would be a hassle, and we’d save tons of $

I’d go from driving 2 days a week for work to 5. I only drive those 2 days because I have to go from DC out to Maryland and it’s not convenient at all to metro/bus to that area. I’d prefer to not drive at all and just metro/walk.

dense cities become quickly unlivable if every worker takes a car in every day. the metro and the bus systems are the lifeblood of every big dynamic city.

I moved to DC in 1997 straight after college and left to go back "home" in 2020. . . which is also when I bought my first car. We did start using car share a bit after we had kids, but there's no way we could/would have continue(d) to live in the area without Metro.

Love The Red Hen. On our first visit, my friends and I ordered every pasta dish on the menu, and we could not believe how good the simple spaghetti al pomodoro; I'm a big proponent of places that do even the basics really well.

All the Targetses in the DC area are disappointing compared to the ones in the Midwest/West/South! No idea why, except lack of space.

I'm absolutely paranoid about my bike/wheels getting stolen. The convenience of being able to dock and forget about bikes is worth the extra few minutes of walking to/from stations and the annual fee. I also bike recreationally and use my (fairly nice) bike for that

Is it an automatic fire alarm? Yeah, those are really routine. you know what gets blood pumping? When you get dispatched for an AFA and then you get 2 follow on-calls for a fire at the location.
That's the shit.
