Yay passive racism!

Would love to hear people’s thoughts on Fat Butcher as I haven’t had a chance to buy something from there yet

This isn't a gotcha point, I actually intend to. It is part of my dream goal to restore people's faith in landlords in a small way by renting out extra space in my home at a base price.

Rental property should NEVER be allowed to be someone's sole income, but I dont have any issue with it bringing supplemental income so long as it isn't taking advantage of the renters.

I'm purchasing a home within my budget because I intend to make sure I can pay for it on my own. If I decide to add a renter their cost is going to be AT MOST half of my mortgage and an equal split of utilities regardless of what the market is. I WANT to see them save money so they can do what I did and I would appreciate the ability to pay off my mortgage faster.

If I am ever privileged enough to own a 2nd home outright I still wouldn't charge "market rent" I would offer someone a rent-to-own agreement on the house so that they can actually have a chance to do what I did and build equity. If they didn't want the rent to own, they still would only have to pay the minimum amount possinle to keep the house going until I can find someone that does want the rent to own. Point being no one needs a second freaking house and that rental isnt meant to be my freaking income! It's not hard.

Is it a restaurant that serves green eggs and ham or just a heavily indebted restaurant?

Did you mean "Sousaian"? ;)

As Will Sasso once said, "That's called kayfabe DUUUDE!"

I once delivered wings to a homicide detective at a crime scene. I mean I get these people get hungry too but shiiiiiit.

A white dude gofundme-ing a fancy restaurant in a working class Pittsburgh neighborhood is giving major Seussian vibes but hey I’m just some jagoff!

Don't bother trying to engage. Corncob is an all or nothing "fuck 'em if they need help" yinzer with their racism hanging out.

I've discussed this in another post, but my reply boils down to "market price" is BS when it comes to something someone needs for survival. The literal purpose of the annual rent increase for a current tenant is to keep up with expected inflation while maintaining current profits for the company. If the rent jumps 15% and inflation is only up 5% then the company is just price gouging because they can and it is immoral and should be made illegal.

If you don’t want to donate you don’t have you. Don’t have to be a jagoff about how someone wants to raise funds.

This happens pretty regularly in East McKeesport, on Route 30, right across from the GetGo. Police cars will sit in the any of the lots on the side of the highway, just waiting for a bus to stop at the GetGo during a green light, and pull over a whole line of cars who pass it.

A few years ago, I saw it being done intentionally, with an empty bus. THAT'S the kind of police action I can get behind.

? Are you trying to draw a comparison between a cup of coffee and an apartment...

Fet Fisk sounds delicious but they also have a gofundme which is one of the trashiest ways to crowdfund your restaurant.

Fet Fisk has been doing mostly pop-ups at different restaurants around Pittsburgh and occasionally take out from their space in Shaler. They just announced they are opening a restaurant in Bloomfield.

that's just the warning red, the real red isn't until 5 seconds.

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea, but that’s only gonna save about $10/degree. OP should also look into plugging up drafts around windows and doors and then maybe putting plastic over windows. The other question is, what kind of heating it is. Electric (aside from heat pump) is crazy expensive, not that you’re going to overhaul the heating system in an apartment.

Tickets are cheap. Person ordering couldve tipped an amount that would also cover the ticket.

Idk why you’re getting downvoted to the negs, except there must be some folks who consider “ take out” to be chain fast food restaurants.

If you have a dog it's an awesome place to walk. It's reasonably priced as far as rent and it's close enough to the city without having to pay 1% of your income. Crime is so so. Lots of car accidents on 65 adjacent to bellevue. Food is decent for takeout.

You and Boris the Clown Boy above are the only two who have made it out like Pittsburgh is the only city on earth with weird weather.

Pittsburgh does have weird weather. That is true, and many commenters have alluded to that fact. Nobody is saying it’s the only place with weird weather except you two pedantic dildo sheaths

No but still busy east end building with restaurants across the street. It’s the worst part about living here. Even when the driveway isn’t totally blocked, there are still cars parked right up against it, or double parked in the bike lane so nobody can see to get out.
