just weird that they implemented a blanket ban instead of requiring the kids to be with adults, to me. I’m sure there are well mannered kids who would like to enjoy a post-sundown date there or something during the summer. or even parents who want to go out for a movie with their kid, at that time; considering there are working parents that get off at 6:30-7ish. I’m approaching semantic territory, but I definitely see this affecting sales to an extent—could be wrong!

Holy shit. I live there and was driving to brunch and wonder what tf could have caused that. Guess our place is well insulated so we didn’t hear any sirens or shots. Damn. What a mess

Parents were coming in with kids, dumping them off, then leaving

Nah you won’t get that unfortunately. I’m just saying for a not real cheesesteak it ain’t bad. They do offer American cheese as an option which for me is next best thing to wiz

Kroger definitely has it

i mean…even without with guardians, though? i may be interpreting it wrong, but I also didn’t ever really see the crowd of kids Bowtie attracted.

honestly, it makes me not wanna go past 7:30 as a young-looking adult…especially if the staff is checking IDs on anyone they think may be under 17. I’m also just super fucking lazy, though.

edit: i fucked up wording, totally meant WITH guardians.

This is great!

Kids have ruined half the movies I’ve gone to see lately, but I’m still not sure I’m for this. Maybe separate theaters and showings for folks under 21? I mean there’s nowhere else for kids to hang out anymore let them have movie theaters for gods sake.

But also keep them away from me

It was a problem at bow tie back in the day. Not surprised they took this action.

in my experience simply having a course certificate present at the hearing will have it resolved then and there if it's a first offense*. my lawyer was basically there to look pretty but would rather she had been there than not.

I’m all for this

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I work for the state and was surprised when I applied that they didn’t make any distinction.

Love this.

But they missed “Whereas he was 50% of the locally iconic Chesterfield Auto Parts commercials, which are still the best local TV ads ever created…”

Driving too fast: jail. Slow: jail. You are charging too high prices for sweaters, glasses: you right to jail. You undercook fish? Believe it or not, jail. You overcook chicken, also jail. Undercook, overcook. You make an appointment with the dentist and you don't show up, believe it or not, jail, right away. We have the best patients in the world because of jail.

I got a ticket in Amelia a couple years back.

As with any court, dress well, be super prompt and polite. There were a number of folks there who did not seem to make any effort. To his credit, the judge didn’t admonish anyone for their dress, but dressing well and being respectful can only help.

My speed wasn’t quite as high as yours, but I went in without a lawyer, pled guilty, and got assigned driving school. I wasn’t alone, either. If it’s your first ticket on your record, I’d say it’s a pretty good chance you’ll be okay going for that.

BUT, if a lawyer isn’t out of your means and/or you already have a record, maybe go the legal route. Amelia is basically nothing but the 360 corridor—they (rightfully) don’t fuck around with habitual speeders.

Bookbinders

I’ll be the lone dissenting voice here. If we want kids to get in less trouble out there this summer, we shouldn’t remove items from the very short list of things they have to do. The sun is still up at 7:30 for Christ’s sake.

An entire box of rainbow cookies. And then maybe a sailor sandwich.

You absolutely can. Before 7:30.

Not to say OP is wrong or that it isn't an issue at Bowtie, but yeah, I bet 9 out of 10 people who say they know where they got them are wrong. Like you said, it takes a while for them to multiply and become apparent a lot of the time. I bet also someone who notices bed bugs after having been to Bowtie but has never heard of Bowtie having them would be less likely to think they got them there.

Do the youth sleep until 7:30?

The two nap schedule is very normal and needed for his age. Typically around 18 months - 2 years children drop their need for a second nap and are sufficient with one. Even the early risers. It might be hard to imagine at this point in his life, I know!

If the caregivers are knowledgeable about child development and typical toddler experiences they’ll be empathetic and helpful during his natural adjustment to one nap during the day.

Same, had 7 Billy cases and a sofa delivered, for $99

Let me know if you find out.

The last time we were there, the adults in the theater were insane. Wouldn’t shut up for the entire movie
