Cortana?

Don’t call a tow truck and do call the parking authority. If you can’t get out of your driveway they will call a tow truck. Time of day and reason for moving your car is irrelevant. This is common situation for the PA

Is that actually a thing? Can you get someone towed from the street in front of your driveway by a private company? I thought it had to be from private property like a lot for the private towing. Certainly the Parking people, (whatever they are called now that they're not an Authority) will not do it, it's hard to get them to issue a ticket.

I'm not fond of the whole reducing people (people's identities, situations, etc.) to stereotypes/labels/catchwords thing. This is a bit of coping, in that the response was so over the top, never before seen, if I start by assuming a person is reasonable and civil, it's a very jarring combination, does not compute. But starting from a framing of extreme entitlement and unreasonableness makes such a response "not unexpected" and helps with the psychology, if that makes sense. My default setting absolutely is non-confrontation...otherwise, I'd not have gotten here to begin with.

Imagine taking over a lease and paying $3,600 when you can just do a new lease and get a couple months free directly from the property.

Axe them to give you a spare key, or no deal. I know keys are stupid expensive, but reminder them what a parking spot costs in this awesome fucking city.

To be fair, the try night cost is pretty much on par with what a try night goes for in NYC ($75-$90 for a 2 hour class).
But I agree that the 4 week class is quite expensive and would just be worth going to a studio in the city instead.

Skinner’s is OG Newark Ave, the first of what was to come. I’ll be sad when it’s gone. Though to be fair I haven’t gone there in years either.

Reply to Men’s Haircut in JC by boredaf_boi
Not sure the name of it, but I go to a barber shop next to Eggmania in JSQ. It isn’t listed on Google Maps but I swear it does exist! They charge $15 for a men’s cut and they actually take their time with it. My girlfriend is a big fan. Would highly recommend, but they are cash only.

I think the real question is: did you need to get out at midnight, or were you trying to leave very early the next morning? If neither of those is true, why not deal with it at 7a or 8a the next day?
Don't get me wrong, your neighbor sounds awful and absolutely took advantage of you and your driveway. The question is whether or not you could have waited for a more reasonable hour to address it. I'd be pretty pissed if someone came to my house after midnight and asked me to move my car, if I thought it was parked (semi)legally where we had agreed it'd be OK.

You sound like what people mean when they call someone a Karen.

It doesn't have to be what it is. Trans people could just change their gender preference, right?

It’ll be interesting to see how their membership and longer classes pan out pricing-wise.
The best lessons in the area currently at the NJNY academy of ceramic arts are well known to be far too expensive and the owner tries to price gouge for every little thing.
The best value membership is Project Studios just on the border with Hoboken, at $150/ month including firing and glaze, 24hr access, which is an absolute steal. I can’t imagine they’ll be able to compete with that, but I’m not sure how many people would be willing to pay significantly more, given PS is a 15-min walk away/ 5 mins by car.

Watch out guys - looks like there may be LEs trying to stop you from throwing furniture into the Hudson in the near future. Make sure you wear a mask and have a good getaway route - just jumping the turnstile at a PATH station may not get you away quick enough. If you've saved enough from shoplifting, consider investing in a motorcycle with a high-volume aftermarket exhaust pipe.
Just keeping my community safe from police aggression.

Just face it, if your name is Karen, Alexa, Cortana, Siri, or Ziggy then you'd just save yourself a lot of trouble at this point by changing your name.
Or, you can fight society forever. It sucks, but it is what it is.
