We are all important travelers that deserve our own bus motorcade 😊.

I have no doubt that it is within their power to remove ads from any of their videos before posting.

The fact that they put two ads before a “breaking news” story where someone lost their life is pretty low.

Just smile and laugh at them, that’s the truest response and will disarm them immediately.

1984 here we come. How about we put this money into public transportation instead? What is really needed is to minimize the amount of people that need to use their own cars to get to work. This will maximize safety and minimize stress for everyone. Traffic tickets generate millions of dollars and they want more, it’s always the lowest hanging fruit to accomplish that goal. Why are we allowing this? Driving in this state already sucks a big one!

I was more comparing RI with MA, but you’re right, people don’t like merging around here:(. It’s like someone didn’t allow them to merge, so they’re paying it forward. It says a lot about the condition of people’s minds, very unhealthy to say the least.

I was more comparing RI with Ma, but you’re definitely right. Lots of room for improvement for RI drivers.

Haha, thanks.

I drive Providence > Boston > Providence every day, mostly 95, 93 and Mass Pike. I can unequivocally say that MA drivers are 1000x more dangerous and aggro than the average RI driver. Yes RI drivers can be bad, but in my experience it’s mostly because they’re too defensive. MA drivers routinely cut you off without so much as a blinker or a wave. They are all meteors hurtling through space and time with zero fucks given, completely unconscious to the havoc they leave behind in their wake.

At least RI drivers occasionally use blinkers and allow you to merge.

That To-Go window was brutal lol. Mass confusion.

I’d probably go with Providence Bagel or Rebelle. The quality at Providence Bagel is a bit inconsistent imo, and Rebelle is always going through some sort of change (definitely check their website on store hours, you may need to order online a day or two ahead). I’m on Rebelle’s mailing list and their instructions on how/when to order and the store hours are never less than 4-5 paragraphs long, so I just don’t bother.

PVD Bagels has bigger/softer bagels. Rebelle’s are smaller/chewier. Both have good homemade spread options. Someone else here mentioned Such a Bagel in Smithfield, I grew up there and loved that place. Haven’t been in years but it’s still alive and kicking.

Jessica or Matt at Ky Michael’s Salon on Wickenden are both great. I’m a guy with medium length hair and they both know how to work with it. Also, always have a great convo with both.
