Im willing and able to throw em in the trash. Not keep them in a bag in my trunk for a week. Think of licking my taint while you keep having to pick them up off your yard.

No. If im responsible with my nips, I would dispose or them like a contributing member of society. If I buy a sleeve of nips, which cost 10 bucks... And there's a 1 dollar deposit, I'm spending 20 dollars. I now have to make sure I save them all.... Put them in a separate bag, and then go out of my way to return them. At that point I'll buy the 22 dollar bottle to get 3x the volume and throw it away like an adult that should have thrown the nips out the exact same way, in the trash/recycle. Frankly, if nips have a $1+ return you may as well just litter them, at least thats what the money is supposedly going towards? Cleanup? Get what you pay for, and maybe you make some bum's day in the process.

So if we both acknowledge that there's an issue with litter. Why not go after the scumbags? It just seems all to familiar to when that one loser would act up in kindergarten and get recess taken away from the other 99%.

And literally any sporting event, Casino, concert or fair. Having a car full of people on the way to an event with varying liquor preferences is impossible to accommodate without nips. People in this sub are so tone deaf with the "only alcoholics need nips". If anyone actually knew, it's not nips. It's the cheapest liquor in the largest most concealable size... Hence the 5th. Most chronic alcoholics visit the same store a handful of times throughout the day. Nips wouldn't even get the day rolling let alone get you to your lunch break. And on top of it, the beauty of nips for most of us who don't drink aside from events or special occasions, we don't have to buy an entire bottle, and Once the nips are gone, Im cut off. No "one more drink, there isn't much left" that turns into a sloppy mess afterwards. If you think nips are the problem, I encourage you to grow up and look for the real root cause of the problem we have which is people who don't care about the communities they live in enough to keep them clean. It's always the fault of the object in this state, zero accountability on its citizens.

My SO used to live there after college and we both cannot stand the ebb and flow of the town. It's a wildly dense cluster of neighborhoods with city traffic and lights at each corner. People try and bypass traffic by cutting through smaller neighborhoods and RIP through sidestreets. Honestly the town has gone to hell in the past 10 or so years. I avoid it at all costs now. Unfortunate, because it has alot to offer.

Reply to Places open on Christmas? by Brilliant-Theory-680
Ming palace in Newington and great taste in NB are the only "Americanized Chinese" restaurants I will go for sitdown. It might just be that my grandma used to take me out to those two spots for lunch with her cooking club friends when I was a kid that brings back some nostalgia for me. My favorite takeaway spot is in Webster plaza in Berlin, wah wah kitchen. My buddy and I used to do christmas eve lunch from there back in the day.

Since you provided an answer to a question nobody asked, do you have an option for a good veal parmagiana, preferably maximum cruelty if at all possible?

I'm not sure why this is a shock to anyone. They run the same script every storm. They do zero prep, zero upkeep, and take zero initiative to prevent any of it. Then they pull in all the "dirty hands clean money" velvetbrain racketeers from every dark hole in the country to put up in hotels across the state for a week at an unfathomably high billable rate while a small army of their junior engineers drive around looking for broken sticks on the side of the road.

Reply to Does Pratt and Whitney have any manufacturing jobs left in the state like Sikorsky? by manticore116
They still have a good amount of engineering and manufacturing in East Hartford. All of their engine assembly and engine test is done in Middletown. Collins up in Windsor Locks also does a good bit of welding too. I know I'm going all over the state but while not aerospace, the other one would be EB. Their welders do very well, albeit they are also highly skilled.

Same reason why up until recent decade, many of the unionized clerical worker state employees had an hour lunch break. B Fox wanted employees to walk downtown and shop on their lunch breaks.

You can call a junkyard and they'll usually give you a small amount of money for it and usually will subtract 50-100 off the offer for them to pick it up. I've done this with cars with no titles and no wheels.
Edit: if it runs and drives I would just get it registered and sell it... Could be a few thousand for ya.

If we're going somewhere and need to make a stop, if I'm riding passenger, I'm starting immediately once I'm back in the car. But I've never had an issue with nips getting cold, I usually buy refrigerated sleeves so might be why... More concentrated thermal mass.

Lmao. And people believed it. I bet every penny of that money goes into the general fund. And besides, how did people really expect the states accountants to figure out how to get state tax dollars from the coffers into the town budgets (its the towns who actually cleans the roads) without any significant amount of political reach arounds.

If it's a tax and not a deposit then the intent isn't to prevent litter and promote recycling, its to make money.

The "Berlin convenience and deli" on 372's fridges don't just have mold everywhere but they have it on the drinks too. The place is a cesspool. They also have a deli that sells cold cuts and mayonnaise based salads if that makes anyone Hungry.
