Reply to comment by fryerandice in Another significant wind event looks possible Saturday by James19991
Oh damn. That really sucks. Fuckin wind. I wouldn't even know where to begin if I had to replace siding. I'm a newb with homeownership (bought my house at age 45 in Oct 2021) but learning so much. Every day. It's fascinating how much time is involved with homeownership. Glad I waited till I was older to buy. I see people on reddit buying in their early 20s and don't get it. I was having too much fun being a goof in my 20s. :P
Question since you have siding - How do you clean it? Mine's not bad but I would like to. I used my pressure washer on the gutters but was reading online about being careful not to get water behind the shingles so I just didn't do it yet.

Reply to Vacationed in Pittsburgh. My top 3 places - Chengdu Gourmet, Page’s Dairy Mart, La Gourmandine by IMicrowaveSteak
Hard disagree on Chengdu. Me and my family ordered there once and we all agreed the Dan Dan noodles were so sweet, they could have been a dessert. But since you put two other desserty places on your top 3, I’m not surprised you liked it.

It’s true, I’m single and trash every single night.

Half of the shingles on the smallest portion of our roof blew off on Saturday and our chimney got damaged, so this is going to be fun!
We bought our house in late 2021 and this is the first time we had wind damage too.

Tena from Success Just Clicks could use them for their therapy dog classes! They need some mobility aids to train the dogs around so when they go and visit hospitals the dogs aren't skittish.

> lawyers are extremely selective on what cases they take.
Which is why people should never infer anything from stuff like "we win 98% of our cases." Easy to win if you pick cases you know are a slam dunk.

Thank you! Now THIS is why I came to this thread! I just knew things were more complicated than just towing two vehicles from the tunnel.

I don't think the sort of people looking to go to a restaurant at 1 AM are in any shape to drive to Washington, but YMMV.

Look, I understand what you're saying here, but there are absolutely people who would be willing to work a night shift at a restaurant. Some people's lives just don't really accommodate working during the day for any number of reasons.

My apologies, I only saw that you weren't from Pittsburgh and assumed you were new 😬

Apteka being a seminfinialst is old news. What isn’t old news is that both chefs made it past the semifinals and made it to the finals for best chefs for the midatlantic region. Congrats!

Been here for 12 years actually but thank you! Honestly I was mistaken in thinking the Pittsburgh-ese wouldn't help with the search. But I do love it here. Despite the dump trucks wrecking in the tunnel. Or the locals inability to drive straight for two minutes.

I'm just saying it would be at midnight/1AM, so when you would need to go to a 24/7 restaurant

the accident caused a fuel spill from one of the trucks which required a fuel spill truck from the city of Pittsburgh, so it took a while to clean it up. Also had to remove the fuel from the tanks remaining on the damaged trucks so they could be towed.

Worry not. Ritters is still open. Just not 24/7. And they still haven't washed their coffee machines! XD

I moved to Pittsburgh from another state in 2016. I quickly learned that 376 is not a term locals use and will look at you like a dog hearing something only dogs can hear when you say it 😅 376 west of the city is Parkway West. 376 east of the city is Parkway East.
Learn it. Know it. Live it.
Oh, and welcome to Pittsburgh!

So it's never a half hour drive from Lawrenceville

> can’t pay enough to keep staff
Would YOU want to work minimum wage graveyard shift? It's not that they can't pay enough, it is that people are up and tired of working their lives away for pennies to the tens of thousands of dollars their CEOs make.

The DA has no power to hold Kennywood to account and this is political grandstanding to appeal to suburbanites, hope this helps.
