Clearly you haven't ridden it during the hours people go to work. It's a hell of a lot cheaper than a car, insurance, maintenance, etc., and no parking or speeding tickets!
Edited to add: Environmentally friendlier, too!

It’s definitely not “Ray’s” style.
It’s really superb, thanks for the tip!

what the public views as “NY Style” and what true NYers like me who grew up there actually eat is way different tbh, napolitanos is a good example of what everyone expects of NY pizzas, it’s the quintessential $1 slice type of pizza, this Roma pizza is closer to what I had growing in Brooklyn

The nonchalance of this comment made me curious, so I checked out Roma today.
It’s not my understanding of NY Style (I think NY style has a smooth bottom and tiny crust bubble structure - both due to the oil in the dough). This is WAY better. Light, airy, crunchy, chewy, tangy - everyone is chasing a style, they seem to have this one all to their own.
Holy crap this was good pizza, I’ve not had any like it.

Bad look....allowing you to share your opinion uncontested? Sorry, I didn't realize that's a bad thing. Next time, I'll be sure to push back on your thinly veiled racism with more vigor.

Bad look, dude. I'd suggest you google urban street culture.

Ew no, this is more a longshot to find puppies that might not be in shelters, obviously. Just casting a wide net

….you mean compared to when it was totally vacant? Yes, people live there. All of the micro lifts upstairs are condos.
What do you mean not a great example of keeping a building afloat?

> You can't be a true Rhode Islander, but your kids could.
I always go back and forth whether we adhere to the rule Mainers do, "just because a cat has kittens in the oven don't make 'em biscuits" or we permit first-generation born in RI to call themselves Rhode Islanders.

and you should refer to my other comment. this is an issue. there are ways to prevent mice from getting into your homes or restaurants without poisoning them. it's wild that there are states in the USA where even traditional metal mousetraps are no longer considered humane yet RI is out here poisoning animals and the undereducated population defends it

>Welcome to living in a city
You guys say "welcome to the city" as an excuse for a lot of weird and unacceptable things that happen here. just so you know, this isn't a city. it's common to be the only person on the sidewalk on a friday night in downtown lol

What's the issue here? Rodents are nuisances and not wanted in homes or restaurants. Clearly some restaurant or store in the area has baited some mice traps and you happened to see the business end of things.
Welcome to living in a city.

No, there are just some people who actually care about animals beyond just dogs and cats. And I suspected the locals in RI don't understand those kinds of things yet considering the only people who stopped for these mice were myself and another non-local

Gonna check back in on this account in a year to see if it’s asking for advice on how to hide the smell of dead bodies.
