Considering it's Texas, I totally get why the AFAB folks there are having fun on their own.

Reply to Should I stay in Salem or Boston? by DecentCockroach
Agreed. Loads to do in both places. Schedule a separate Boston trip for another 3 days off later.

The absence of their heads really alters it so far beyond any appreciation for me that it renders the whole exercise as an incomprehensible waste.
Would it have been so hard to reduce its size by 25% if it meant including Dr. King and his wife?

No judgement until I see it in person.

Over 90 isn't unfortunate, it's reckless. Please stay safe out there friend.

In other states they have overhead signs telling you what lanes are turn only. In Massachusetts, or Worcester anyway, often the only markings are on the pavement. Which means if there's other traffic on the road, you literally can't see the marking until it is too late to adjust.
Law should require that turn-only lanes be delineated with overhead signage visible at least 100 ft before the intersection.

A little bird told me that Stop & Shop threatened to take their corporate offices out of the City of Quincy if they allowed a Market Basket to be built .

The shit I see people in Malden do everyday…this seems like some low ass hanging fruit. Do you have a Yankees bumper sticker?

Tourists aren't going to randomly end up in Roxbury or Mattapan 🙄. Even if they do, the most dangerous parts of Boston are incredibly tame relative to dangerous neighborhoods in other major cities.

Another vote for Harry's in Middleboro, wings were featured on Phantom Gourmet show, in the MA top 5.
Bro, the wing & drum are cooked still connected, the secret to juicy wings.

You go to the town for any available redress. The state has nothing to do with it.

You never know with the weather here in February. Incase it snows you should stay in Salem closer to the wedding. Boston is a nightmare to travel through during a storm. Not to mention the trains can be a headache.

>a running theme in Massachusetts is lift operators who have never attempted to ski and have no desire to
Aren't liftees in MA the same as everywhere else? Like 5 locals and 25 foreign kids on vacation?

Salem .

Salem has all kinds of cool stuff , check out the salem visitors center, for where to go, and what to do .

It is easy enough getting back and forth between Salem and Boston via the commuter rail. Boston obviously has exponentially more to do, but based off your description, it sounds like Salem would be very much up your alley.

I’m also neutral. It does look like a dong from some angles, so the unintentional humor factor is high, but I’m not angry at it.

I don’t hate it, but I don’t see how this was the best option. Sure the other ones would’ve taken up more space but at least they were visually appealing

Reply to Got a quote for a ductless mini split.. $48K for 1300 sq. ft. house. Too much? by EuclidsStairs
Way too much. We did about half our 1500 sq foot house, 2 bed rooms and the living room for about $11k 6 months ago. 48k seems insane.
