My fraternity in college in Baltimore had the cheesesteak challenge for the pledges.
You have to bring $35 in cash and drive to Philly to get 1x Pat’s, 1x Geno’s, and 1x Tony Luke’s. If you can eat all three without throwing up you win.
Also you have to bring some cheesesteaks back for the bros.
However if you actually want good cheesesteaks, avoid pats and genos. And tony Luke’s is a chain. I just spent 5 weeks in Philly and the best one, hands down, is Angelo’s in south Philly. Pats and genos sucks. DelAssandros is barely even in Philly, and it’s not good. Ishkabibble is OK. the rest are all ok. Just get Angelo’s.

I agree but IMO the act of “trafficking” requires either large quantities (gun stores sell individual items to individual people), or illegal transactions (gun stores have to comply with many many federal/state/county regulations), or smuggling a controlled item into a different jurisdiction, or a combination of these.
I get why it’s fun to say weapons trafficking but I don’t agree that this is what it is.

Lol so does this make a real estate agent a “homes trafficker” and a car salesmen an “auto trafficker” and a grocery store a “produce trafficker”?

The video footage they have supposedly makes this even stupider.
MCPD stationed a plain-clothes officer in a pre-dawn surveillance in an unmarked SUV without notifying the business, and then warned the business that an SUV would be used in any future burglary attempts, and then the interaction started when the plain-clothes cop was accelerated directly at the employee, almost hitting him, while the police lights were off, and when the MCPD driver was flooring it out of the parking lot, the employee started shooting after jumping out of the way.
It really seems almost comically farcical like it’s something straight out of Its Always Sunny or something. Obviously the store owner/employee discharging a weapon sucks but what in the actual fuck was MCPD thinking?

I’ve been living out of AirBnBs for the last 10 months and you are both correct.
Many people use them for 1-3 days but that is the least cost-effective way to do it. If you are using an AirBnB for any period less than 2 weeks then you are just burning money. That doesn’t stop people from doing so, and it’s because the AirBnB UI is “software company” level, and, like Robinhood to other banking apps, Coinbase to a local wallet, a good UI goes a LONG way. Hotels aren’t clustered this well and they are typically spread among their various apps and websites, all of which are worse than AirBnBs user experience.
Then you get there and realize the $200 cleaning fee that the previous tenant paid was obviously NOT used for anything because every single corner is full of spiderwebs and dead bugs and for $110 a night they didnt even both refilling the crusted-over hand soap dispenser in the bathroom..
Very sick of AirBnBs in America. In Mexico (urban areas and beach towns), it’s still great, and if you’re looking for a really unique (and expensive) architectural find, AirBnB is still the way to go in the US, especially around national parks. The real move is to follow travel nurse advice if you want to do month-long traveling engagements. But most of these places list through AirBnB anyway and once you find the place you can do some research and find their website and book directly through their own site instead of letting AirBnB take a cut.

In American Dad, Steve and Stan are leaving a CIA safe house full of the bodies in mafia mobsters that they just killed:
Steve: “Shouldn’t we clean this up?.. or tell someone about these corpses?”
Stan: “Pff, it’s a CIA safe house, not an AirBnB. We don’t have even to… run the dishwasher, before we leave.”

Also every cross walk should come with a bucket of orange utility hammers that pedestrians can use to shatter the windows of passing cars in random acts of indiscriminate vandalism.

They would work better if they were permanently illuminated and were raised to sidewalk level as some sort of huge speed bump.

I was trying to Google what cheap Chinese liquor comes in cans but I gave up since I couldn’t figure it out. Submitted that comment with a Chinese liquor and hoped the message would carry.
Tell me what the ratchet drunks of China do be drinking out of cans? For future zingers. Please and thanks.

Oh my god literally every single square inch of public space in the city was for cars and you’re mad. Also “hundreds” implies at LEAST 200 and were just barely over 100. Youre so full of shit.

More people would use bike lanes if they didn’t have to be an adrenaline junkie with a deathwish to use them.
You ever visit the belt line in Atlanta? I’ve never seen so many pregnant mothers and children on bicycles. That’s because THEY DONT NEED TO INTERACT WITH CARS. I bet most of the car tards here would be against that too.

My transportation: a $900 bicycle
Your transportation: a $20,000+ automobile that requires yearly registration, insurance, maintenance, parking.
Call me when bike parking in DC is $65k a year.
Zillow -> for sale -> less than: $100,000
And you call me middle class? Bitch I’m in my early twenties and deal with cockroaches.

Exactly. I was on the Amtrak yesterday and every time I see entire neighborhoods of Baltimore, literally tens of square miles, of abandoned row homes and single family homes collapsing into themselves. There is NO population pressure, so “gentrification”, which is a bad word, in reality, is all the things you said, and more. Revitalization of an area improves opportunities for all and expands tax base.

>they don’t magically make more money
Firstly, they often do, because new industry and tax base raises wages.
>can’t afford newly built gentrified areas
Sometimes. Sometimes they can. Sometimes the cycle persists where the “victim” is able to benefit from the positive change in wages and housing availability that was never present before.
Gentrification is code for NIMBY.
