that aspect of respect for the left lane was a breath of fresh air…i love the autobahn…but as soon as you’re off…wam now we got people literally parking in the road…as a rhode islander, really helped me man up to play chicken through these old towns…barely wide enough for two fiestas to pass

My friends were so happy to see pianta at veg fest because they had a huge line and everyone was walking out with big items. They got to the front to find out it was a 1.5” squared corn bread. They felt obliged to buy something so they spent like $18 on a Crunchwrap like taco bell style.

I recently went to Dr. Armound Mahmoudi at Advanced Dental Care in Providence and I highly recommend it. I went for a wisdom teeth consult, and was seriously impressed with how thorough they were. It’s a small clinic and the staff is really friendly. I went to the same dentist for my whole life (I’m 34) and I left feeling like I found my new dentist. They had decent availability too.

I go to restaurant depot, and they don’t call the cops on you, you do need a membership though. I’ve been in food service as a chef/buyer for 25+ years, the prices have gone up drastically. The low price for chicken now, was 3x that a year ago. French fries used to be $17/cs. Overhead costs have skyrocketed too, my software costs have gone up 20%. Luckily I have t had to pass much cost on because my food cost has only gone up 3 points, but if your business sells chicken wings, fries and bar foods, those costs have gone way up from pre-pandemic.

This is so necessary. Every morning I drive south towards Newport and there is that vehicle in the passing lane just putting along and blocking traffic that is actually passing. It is infuriating.

Once in a while I see people post here, "the speed limit is 55 and I'm going 60 and people are on my ass in the left lane." Brutal

Honestly that just doesnt bode well when its inconsistent. Means the cleaning is probably also inconsistent imho.
