I get that. I used to have comcast and they would start you out on a lower than “standard” price and increase it as soon as the price guarantee ended, but would discount it again if you threatened to leave (provided you have options). At least if you get internet only, the price is the price and new customers and existing customers that aren’t locked into an older price will get the same price. The only thing verizon doesn’t do is put you on lower priced equivalent plans that weren’t available when you signed up.

I would love more pedestrian/bike bridges to get people across the river

I'm the opposite. I love Abbott, but couldn't get into the office. Never watched parks and rec though

I'm still enjoying my weekly dose of Abbot Elementary and I've recently started watching Kaleidoscope on Netflix. I've watched the green and purple episodes and so far I'm enjoying it, but it took me a while to decide what order I wanted to watch in.
In the anime sphere I've been hooked on Buddy Daddies and Bungo Stray Dogs
As far as movies are concerned, I'm looking forward to watching Wakanda Forever tomorrow evening

The most cost efficient way would be a light rail above the road 👍🏻

That's not what we're talking about. Rather, the practice of these companies to raise the rates just a little so that people just kind of accept it rather than dispute it. Multiply that by thousands or millions of subscribers, and you're inflating your profit quite nicely.

Make the subway a sealed system. Easy.

Is this an HD only shop?

I just watched Puss in Boots: The Last Wish with my kiddos and was totally surprised when it turned out to be a well-made, perfectly paced spaghetti western!
No joke, I give it 4 out of 5 stars. 2nd best film I’ve seen this year

Sorry you had a bad experience. All I can do is report on my own, which have been good.

Verizon seems to do it different on the Fios side anyways. As far as I can tell it’s $50/mo with the router provided for everyone to get the 300mb plan which is enough for anyone, even with my absurd usage. It used to be $40 if you used your own router but it seems the only option is to have the provided router (even if you don’t use it) probably to streamline customer service.

I was just telling my partner if I could open a restaurant on the hill it would be ramen... Great minds think alike or something. I know where I'll be going on rainy days.

I just wanted to take this time to gripe about the split of the 1a 1b 1c bus routes that now splits everyone's ride in half and doubles the commute time.
Also, often slept on, Brand New Cherry Flavor on Netflix is perfect for people who like a show that doesn't take itself too seriously. A bit scary at times too and it's a limited series so no commitment!

I wanted to like E&F, but ended up having a bad experience. Would not recommend.

That's a show I've watched through I think three times now. Twice with my kids, and then once on my own. Just a great show.

Absolutely not. Joey, the guy who owns it, is a clown. He tried to upsell me on thousands of dollars worth of suspension shit that was wholly unnecessary when all I needed was fork seals and fork oil. .

You know, I've tried that show a couple times. Recorded it, watched 2-3 episodes...laughed maybe once total. I just don't find it funny, and I thought Office and Parks and Rec were great.

That was such a great episode. Some of the best TV I've seen in a while.

Cobra Kai is way better than it deserves to be. I love it so much that it is ridiculous. Absolutely need to rewatch the movies though. I had forgotten a lot.

FiOS is not available in my area unfortunately otherwise that would be the first choice.

Moto & Scoot Richmond off of Midlothian. It may be a little further out of town now but they have a great service department.
