This is why I never expect shit to get done in this state.

This works if they are next door with big equipment. Like a crane. Transport of it costs a lot of money. You may get a small bargain if they are in the neighborhood. With regular trucks and chipper s. Lots of liability with tree guys. They can’t give really good deals.

Imagine not being based and housepilled

Derry puts the OD into “Northwoods Law”

The end of the day deals , usually you get a half a$$ job with a product that isn’t up to par, by the workers who want a little extra cash with stuff they will throw away at the end of the day.

I’ve only done a deal like this once - for seal coating and it was too cold and came out poorly.

There was a newer exterminator company that did this a few years ago… made all the local boards with shady guys approaching houses. I saw one of the guys pictured doing the same thing in another town weeks later. I showed him his picture.

It’s a common practice just like “ pollsters “ who go door to door . They are all just selling something.

Very accurate map.

No, there were and are legal distinctions between civil union and marriage defined at the federal level

On the other hand, if the eviction laws and process were easier for landlords then maybe the elderly lady I knew from church,used to live with (I lived with her for ten months and moved because she had a ton of untreated psych issues and the stress became too much) wouldn't have ended up with a shit tenant after I left. This tenant moved in and promised to pay her back taxes and mortgage as the rent amount..he had her entire second floor(two bedrooms, a bathroom and office) to himself and basically destroyed the entire floor and took over the entire house..he physically abused her, psychologically abused her, financial abuse, emotional abuse, stole treasured possessions from her and pawned them..she called the cops and they told her it was a civil issue, I called Adult Protective services on her multiple times and she refused the help. She was afraid to kick him out because she was terrified of being homeless and giving up her elderly dog(her only living link to her deceased husband besides the house). She finally had enough and went to evict him but couldn't because she couldn't afford an attorney and she couldn't afford the court fees.

He ended up being served eviction notice by the state after she was forced into a nursing home and the bank foreclosed..but at that point he'd made the interior of her house non inhabitable. Which was a shame. It was a nice house

It’s relatively small as far as colleges go. It feels sort of like a large HS campus. Additionally, since it’s a small state school it doesn’t attract the most serious students. Many of them call it either “keg stand college” or “kinda sorta college” with pride as they do the bare minimum amount of work to pass their classes so they can party as much as possible. There was also the great pumpkin fest riot of 2015 which certainly tarnished the school’s reputation.

It’s not a bad school though, and a lot of graduates have gone on to do some cool stuff. Their biology and chemistry programs were really good before Covid (they’ve had some faculty layoffs since which has stretched everyone thin and led to fewer available classes each semester), and they’ve also got a pretty good occupational safety program.

Source: I was one of the “keg stand college huhuh” students my freshman year and nearly failed out. I took a year off, worked a shitty job, did some traveling, and then went back to KSC to retake a class I had failed and boost my GPA so I could go to a more serious university. Met a cool girl, decided to stay and ended up declaring biology as my major, broke up with cool girl, still decided to stay because my professors were incredible. I buckled down, became a straight A student, and was presented with some really good opportunities many students at “better” institutions don’t get. I was an author on multiple papers due to my undergrad research, made connections with labs at larger institutions and got to collaborate with them independently, and I presented my research at multiple conferences. I also secured employment within my field a few weeks before graduating, as did many of my peers. The school’s biology program has an extensive network of students working in biotech now, and it’s made it very easy for graduates to get their foot in the door.

So yeah, KSC gets a bad rep, but so do most small state schools. In KSC’s case I think it gets a particularly bad rep because of the pumpkin fest riots from 2015 which made national headlines and embarrassed the entire town of Keene. It’s hard to be taken seriously as an academic institution when that’s what everyone knows you for. There are certainly worse choices than KSC to attend though, and the college is actually ranked fairly high in terms of value among liberal arts colleges nationwide. It’s a decent school all and all.

Yeah, NH laws are terrible for both landlords and renters. How can that be? Easy. Landlords get so f$$ked by bad renters who don't pay and often trash the place to tune of $5k-10k+ that those cost increase the rents and cause people to lose interest in renting, particularly smaller landlords. I know first hand.

If people want more places to rent at better prices two things must occur 1. It becomes cheaper for landlords to rent, and two it becomes easier for landlords to rent. Both can be accomplished by harshy penalizing by the few renters who dramatically increase costs and can't be removed for many months, then just move on and do the same thing at the next apartment.

One reason more apartment buildings aren't built is the enormous costs of building and operating them above and beyond the costs of single family homes. While the land for the home is more of the costs, for an apartment building of virtually any size one must have a sprinkler system, 24/7 alarm monitoring company, elevator, trash pickup (most towns with two pickup won't pick up a new apartment buildings, so they pay twice - in taxes and to a private company), etc, etc.

Yeah yeah yeah, sprinkler systems might be critical to some, but people have to consider they're tens of thousands to install, and several thousand per year to inspect and maintain. Which is why you don't usually see any 4, 6, 9, even 12 unit apartment buildings going up. It's just not cost feasible.

Why should renters be required to be MORE protected them single family homeowners?

This is Fuckin hilarious and so true especially the ones in the western part of the state!!! LOL

>people should be allowed to marry who they want

Including children, their sister, someone not mentally capable of making decisions, someone that's already married, a corpse..?

>Afterwards, think about what it means to marginalize 20% of the population.

Wasn't arguing the right and wrong of it, was arguing that Pride was pushing a belief onto others. You can't possibly think that the majority of the population went along willingly, because wow, would that be some revisionist history.

Nice deflection. I doubt anyone noticed.

>There are benefits that come from being married in the eyes of the state which is what the issue of gay marriage is predicated upon

Right, which as I said elsewhere, could have been handed over to individuals to determine for themselves. Custody of children, medical proxy, inheritance, and so on. Would be a lot more flexible to not even have a concept of marriage and just let people determine these things as they wish. Maybe designate a default person if one doesn't want to spend time on it. But nah, lets double down on this concept of marriage so we can clog the courts with an ever increasing number of divorces and family squabbles.

But again, this was about pushing beliefs. If I remember right, NH had civil unions before marriages. But that wasn't enough, because.. it was a different term. The left wanted to enforce the belief by using the same term, there was no other reason to push at that point. It had the same legal recognition and rights.

>The touchy Feely stuff about the "erosion" of marriage is the sort of argument used against allowing all adults to vote without restriction.

We shouldn't allow all adults to vote. It's the right of citizens, you're only allowed to vote in each election once, you have to be voting in the correct location, etc. Talk about a slippery slope, you built your argument on one apparently.

​

>Separation of church and state and all that.

No such thing. The state can't demand that you be religious, but it doesn't have to run screaming away from religion either. Christmas as a federal holiday, anyone? But this is just an example of the lack of awareness that beliefs are pushed from both sides, not from just one side as was alleged. Can't have God in school, that's offensive therefore my belief that there is no God is more important than other people's belief that there is or might be!

Well...shit happens.

pumpkin fest riot

Why does Keene get such a bad rap? I’ve heard this more than once.

as someone from rural NY who keeps an eye out for more northern land to move to when my kids are grown, im surprised aging hippies are that far south. See i try to get as close to the great north as humanly possible without revoking citizenship. (it's honestly a weather thing for me, i really really like snow and rural back country. I was a trail worker and worked for parks and i just need constant snow n cold.

i see snowmobile country, but may i ask, is there periodical thaws during the winter or does it just stay frozen? i need consistency. it thaws way too much where i'm at. i need snow from november to march. are there already too many people moving there?

The Lakes Region, where I grew up, is definitely a whole buncha bullshit and lake houses 😂😂😂😂

Don't know about NH but Massachusetts makes it ridiculously difficult to evict anyone. There's no shortage of low life freeloaders out there who game the system. By the time a landlord gets relief from a court ordered eviction they are out many thousands of dollars and most likely their property is trashed. Essentially these type of people are squatters and the laws regarding that are equally insane. When I lived in Florida, an eviction was a matter of a call to the local PD and the evictees were gone in 24 hrs. A little harsh but effective. If a landlord struggles for a year with a legitimate eviction, the next tenants will be paying a whole lot more up front and monthly after that.

Worked out great for the Bolsheviks.

"landlords generally get the less traumatic end of the 'unexpected moveout' "

Seems like something someone who hasn't been a landlord would say.

I had one lady who after not paying her rent for quite a long time decided rather than leave that she would just burn the building down with everyone else inside. It didn't go to plan, thankfully nobody was harmed. Substantial damage to the unit and some very tenants in the rest of the building who I'm sure would have preferred I was able to get her out sooner.

Having to move unexpectedly is an inconvenience that you were aware was possible when you sign the lease and move in. The property owner being able to immediately get rid of people is absolutely necessary for the safety and well being of everyone involved. The law should take that into account.
