That’s what me and my friends call them

That’s Ms. Betty. :)

Poor signage and lane markings aren't helping. It also feels like some projects just get abandoned (I'm looking at you, 395 to 95S "lane shift").

It's not hating the homeless or any of that. Imagine being the poor employee that has to cleanup after someone's "shower" or their latest drug fix. Now imagine people who use the Starbucks regularly for extended periods, seeing that, and never wanting to visit that location ever again. Now you know why they put codes on some of the doors (still).

Should you be able to relieve yourself? Yes. Leave the bathroom unsanitary or unsafe? NO. Not sure why this is such a hard concept for people.

Pollen monsters.

That fruitlessness was supposed to make them sterile but, as Jeff Goldblum would say, life will find a way. Now you'll find Bradford Pears in a lot of our forests competing with native trees and spreading year after year.

Would we call you at DOT or the police about a disabled vehicle? There's been minivan sitting in the bike lane (I think it's a bike lane, or maybe a bus lane) near the Baltimore National Cemetery but it may have been stolen. Who would we contact for that?

Thank you

There's a trash can nearby that will bring you similar results.

Stinky fucking trees

Dogwoods

Probably because they don’t actually produce any fruit. Just an obscene amount of pollen.

Bradford pears are a blight. They over produce pollen because they don’t produce fruit (on purpose, to “reduce litter”) so they suck for allergies, they smell like the jizz of someone who’s never eaten a vegetable, and they’re weak and quickly become hazardous.

Please please please just go to a real doctor.

that's oddly specific.

You know that stuff is complete quackery, right?

Once again, Spring has cum to Baltimore.

It’s gagging season again

Go down keswick and cut over to Remington at 33rd, take Remington over to 27th then take Maryland or Charles down. Totally fine

Yes because the kids in cherry hill are also spoiled. Get a grip man, go listen to some legislative oversight hearings if you want to hear some in depth analysis. Don’t expect that on comms like this…

And I’m sure you’d be saying how great this was if the situation was reserved and they were ticketing chronic offenders on your drive.

Yes! I was reading in the article the other user posted. They are invasive, birds and deer spread them.

The wooded area around Maiden Choice run has many Bradford Pear crowding out the other trees, now I know how they got there.

and you just fucking nailed the problem on the head, this is nothing but fucking useless propaganda to make make the spilled shit kids in this sub feel better about themselves and their "hardships"

and that rec center in Cherry Hill? the one being built next to the yeah collection center? built just high enough so the assholes that will over pay for their seasonal apartment in port Covington can see it and feel better about themselves?

sorry but have to wake up in 5 hours so i can make my way from pigtown to Curtis bay on shit roads and replace my suspension in 2 weeks for the 3rd time in 18 months because of the sad state of the roads. but hey at least i get to look at some sweet waterslides. and i can sleep knowing Hopkins students will only have to serve past a few cars riding their bikes

What about BPD driving and parking in them? I see it all the time, even the ones sectioned off by a concrete median like the one between Light/Pratt St and Harborplace. Fucking ridiculous

They are incredibly invasive too, and an ecological scourge crowding out native trees that benefit wildlife.
