I made a mad lib for everyone to comment!

Wow, I can't believe [restaurant] is on this list. I went to [restaurant] and I was not impressed. The [food / ambiance / service] was mediocre at best. And the [waitstaff / chef / owner] is a known for being [sexist / racist / anti-worker / homophobic / rude / slow / including a restaurant recovery fee on the check]. I can't believe [restaurant] is ranked higher than [other restaurant]. Everyone thinks that [other restaurant] is so much better. And why are restaurants from [city / town] included on this list? I thought this was about Washington. Clearly Washingtonian is biased against [neighborhood you live in]. This entire list is bullshit.

Would live at Pen Druid if I could

1. This probably doesn't count, but my dad was stationed at Bolling while I was in Jr High. But I have lots of friends and colleagues that were born and raised in the DC area
2. I interact with DC natives daily. Most of neighbors are second or third generation DC natives.

lmao that sucks

Whole Foods in Navy Yard definitely has it

Barrel in Eastern Market makes an amazing chicken sando

Hey bro nice work you totally converted someone to your way of thinking by being a dickhead!

Buy Dr pepper

Botanic gardens are always a hit

I remember reading that Lincoln would vacation at the Old Soldier's home (a few blocks west of Petworth) to escape the city

I remember reading in a few books that rich folks maintained homes in the hills around the city to escape the heat and humidity of the downtown area. I've also read that the SW Waterfront area was a shanty town for the early 20th century.

I honestly think there's some cultural signaling around behaving like a piece of shit. It's a way for idiots to express their masculinity, independence and disregard for societal norms.

I've literally never seen Natty Bro bottles in my entire life

You're not obligated to do anything and your friends should not expect rides from you. You're free to say no and not feel guilty. The beauty of public trans is that no one is actually reliant on you to get around - you're just a more convenient option.

I own a car and my approach is, if convenient (eg not more than a few min out of my way), I'll pick someone up or drop them off from their residence. What I do more often is bring people to a point where there's a mutually convenient parting of ways. This is most often a metro stop that is along my way and saves them some time/money/transfers. Unless there are extenuating circumstances (injury, significant inebriation, etc) I wouldn't drive someone across town and I don't feel like my friends expect it.

Damn I stand corrected

Damn sounds like a totally real person. How does she drive?

It's all office parks, so I guess you could do stuff like innovate, collaborate, promote synergy and things like that.

Unless it’s some kind of an emergency, no

whoa.... badass

Yeah - what's worse? People living in tents or people being hauled away to institutions against their will?
