Keep debating the person and not their view. I’m sorry my talking points are hitting too close to home for your liking.

lol - I think you just described all the major highways of CT - how about rt 84 thru Hartford - most times of the day - Hartford to Waterbury is a bit better with the new lanes but not too much - New Haven where 91 and 95 merge - 95 along the shore all summer
The merritt - New Haven to Greenwich both ways - is there ever a good time ? Sunday mornings maybe at 7 am. And even worse since covid. People have had it so they become part of the problem ! WFH - its safer !!

Super cool story. Since you have literally no idea what you are talking about, I’m gonna say bye Felicia.

Make sure to put your headphones in because your smoke alarm may go off.

> And yes, public teacher pay scale is based on experience.
Exactly! It’s based purely on tenured experience and not on performance.

Had that too, I fought back, beat those motherfuckers with a handle. Got a reputation besides a weed dealer as someone who'd fuck someone up

Yes, we care both about education and getting paid. Again, this is surprising to you? And yes, public teacher pay scale is based on experience. We have a severe teacher shortage, so you’re welcome to join up if you think it’s so well paid and easy.
And I will, thanks! What else am I gonna do? Vote for the fascists?

It’s always about the education so long as the teachers get their end, right?
Worst teacher in town gets paid the same as the best. Keep voting blues!

I had 3 pair of pants and pro wings in jr. high. Rude awakening in discovering what name brands meant.
The “comedians” came up with great material at my expense. If I had perfectly good teeth I would have smiled & laughed with them.
I’m sure it wouldn’t have been as bad if I didn’t wear thick ass non fashionable glasses.
If I had eyes in back of my head, I would have noticed the cow licks blocking my view as bulky bullies approaching to further cement their fragile egos as they huffed and puffed their dominance over my scrawny solo self.
Luckily I scraped by school, developed thick skin, got a job, new kicks, contacts, comb, shop lifting skills, & followed a program (push-ups, sit ups, and burpee’s.

I’m looking to replace my freestanding Harman Advance with the newer Allure model.
I went down the rabbit hole of looking at other brands and saw some nicely designed European stoves, but after maintaining Harman stoves for several years…. I don’t think I’ll go for other brands. They have gotten it right for so long, for me anyways.
Maintenance is very important to get the best efficiency, I’m not lazy, but I don’t need Land Rover type maintenance, I’m a Lexus type of guy.

Reply to comment by brayners in Is there a bad stomach bug going around central Connecticut? by [deleted]
It's always around.
It's extra around right now because of COVID, in two ways. First, peoples bodies are busy fighting off COVID basically all the time, and as a result other pathogens are able to survive a bit better, sometimes much better, and RSV is surviving long enough in the body to make it to the lower airways, where it can cause breathing issues and normal viral fever, aches, etc. Second, people aren't being as sanitary with distancing, masking, hand washing, cleaning, and eating urinal cakes again and so forth, and so lots of people who didn't have it for a long time are getting it again, lots of kids getting it for the first time, so their RSV antibodies are low or non-existent, and it survives long enough to become symptomatic, which includes cough-spraying droplets of lung fluid, spreading the virus.

I was looking into a Comforbilt for half the price but maintenance sounded like a nightmare (not to mention Made in China vs. USA). Plus Harmans have been around a long time. My in-laws and brother in law both have them and they’ve both been solid units.

Reply to Better grocery stores than Whole Foods in Central CT by raindroptop
not a grocery store but a cool way to get pretty reasonably priced produce, bread, eggs, cheese, etc from local farms in one place https://healthyplaneat.com/ we do the middletown pickup every other week or so. the yogurt is soooo good
