Reply to Just watched a car dump handfuls of trash out of their window as they drove through our hotel’s parking lot, they were less than 20 feet from a trash can that they could have reached without getting out of the car. This is why we can’t have nice things. by TheDiscoGodfather

IT COSTS NOTHING TO USE A TRASH CAN

Sorry for all caps, but this makes me angry and sad and confused. Also, I picked up several pieces of garbage because if you’re gonna bitch, you better be willing to do something.

Reply to Property Tax - 70% increase by tennajane

It’s pretty trash the appeal process. How they appraise the land value of an adjacent lot higher than the other is crappy. I guess it’s suppose to be a progressive tax. Charge the gentries more.

That’s the county, but yeah. I once threw trash back into a person’s car window on MLK. Good times.

Yeah I basically stopped going when I was like 21-22, but six or seven years ago there was a free concert we went to and I had to leave briefly after the show after dark and when I went to get back in the bouncer guy wouldn’t let me back in because I didn’t have sleeves? I guess it was on their list of shit they turn people away for at night. Dude literally said something about keeping the place classy. Place was becoming a shit show anyways by that point so we all left. It’s definitely the spot to go if you’re young and want to get blackout drunk, and fight and/or dry hump a random person.

Reply to Cheese Galore and More by CylonXL

It tends to attract an older crowd (mostly retirees), but it's a fun little place to hang out for an hour or two! Highly recommend just getting a bottle from the shop and paying a cork fee instead of going by the glass if you're drinking.

Reply to Potentially moving to Aberdeen, MD by rngATARIS

Hello! I moved here this past May from Baltimore. I consider it to be safe if you are going to be staying in/keeping to yourself and going to the commercial areas. You have nearly every kind of modern convenience within 15 minutes. I highly recommend Planet Fitness for a gym as it's hardly ever busy, friendly staff, decent locker rooms, CHEAP, and they keep it incredibly clean. Grocery store selection can be tough because you're not guaranteed to get the item you want if you go to certain stores (like Aldi, Lidl. Walmart has been out of stock of some staples lately). I think you will fit in just fine here! If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask.

p.s. Ollie's is my favorite store around here, you can find stuff for much cheaper than regular store price. Just check the expiration dates on food!

Reply to anywhere in/around Baltimore serve drinks in coconuts? by ArthurRiot

Dunno about coconuts, but if you’re looking for tiki cocktails, Heritage Smokehouse of all places has amazing tiki cocktails. I believe Sugarvale does tiki cocktails too. Not sure if it’s an every night thing. Lucky Buns was kind of scratching that itch too for awhile, but they abruptly closed a little while back. Still hoping someone at some point takes the plunge and goes all in on a real deal tiki bar like Archipelago in DC or Hidden Harbor in Pittsburgh.

Basically it's not difficult or expensive to keep the chimney and preserve the ancestral resting spot of thousands of migratory birds, but it is slightly inconvenient so what's going to happen is the developer will make non-committal statements about preserving the chimney and then due to an "unfortunate accident" during construction the chimney will become unstable and have to be demolished and they won't face any repercussions whatsoever. Maybe they'll even get a tax credit for building housing.
