Some of those people are illegal cabs or in some cases Ubers, at least that’s the case around Newark/JFK. There were some regs briefly that said Ubers couldn’t operate around those airports so they’d post up out there. Some people are just from the era before phones and cell phone lots and are stuck in the cycle of doing it their way.

Cabs do have an upperhand, in price and in wait time, especially at airports. Just a lot of people have been burned by them pretty bad pre-uber days, or pre-uber-going-bad and are just used to Uber, they don't think much of using one even when there is a line of cabs waiting in front of them while they are waiting for an Uber to show up. Just told someone the other day about this, although because of his prior experiences he said he was inclined to just wait for Lyfts.

Do not buy US alternatives (Vermont, I think, produces some variant), - they are complete and utter shit.

If Whole Foods doesn't have the OG one - look up where the brand distributes elsewhere in the States, but it was spotty (I didn't see it anywhere else).

Bart's Bagels on Lancaster has their in-house cream cheese that is the closest thing to creme fraiche I've found.

You're a schmuck. At least ya figured it out.

Ticketing people at the airport inconveniences Karens, dickhead.

The city spends money ticketing people making their court date 📅- so the state can pretend it keeps a balanced budget & punishes the Poors like GOD intended.
