It’s been over two decades since I’ve left my small hometown that only had two stoplights and where cars were required. I will never take a 10-15 wait for metro for granted. Even when an hour metrobus wait is a pain, I’ll take that over car payments I wouldn’t be able to afford.

Ignore the trolls. Sorry you had to deal with him being a jackass.

Well, it is DC. Doesn’t particularly have a good track record of enforcement usually

Good to know that the upper level is game. I went there, wasn’t sure, so I stayed on the bottom cause I didn’t want to get kicked out haha.

Nah, I was guessing it was a camera with a proper lense, not a phone.

I’m taking a leap and guessing that the camera they use would make the monument blurred if they set the focus on the flowers. Plus the composition works well with the monument as the focus. I think a different composition would be required for it to work with the blossoms as the focus and have the monument as a background element.

I love the blossom busses and trains during this season!

It’s been over two decades, but I moved to a city-city right after hs graduation from a town of 6,000. It’s gonna be culture shock. Every city has its own energy.

Everyone here already posted some really great replies! One big thing for me is that if someone is dodgy, acting weird on public transit, move seats/train cars if possible. I used to feel like it was bad of me to do so, but now idgaf, life is too short to deal with shady weirdos.

My favorite rebound to canvassers when it’s around the first of the month, “I have rent to pay/just paid rent!” and zoom away.

Would it be called “The Fast Food Worker’s Manifesto?” From seeing videos of fast food workers (in general) KO idiots who go behind the counter, throw shit, and etc has to be building up some insane internal rage.

Drive thru literally 💀

Can confirm for MD residents. I got a DC library card recently free of charge.

My friend from Boston said the same thing about the trees here! Didn’t even think of it, but probably since I moved from Sacramento, which also has a lot of trees lol.

I love this!! The birds all dressed up are wonderful.

Also in the zero club. My sanity will take the extra cost of living alone.

Nothing will happen, as per usual.

Those poor kids. :(

Hell, they’d even pull the sun from the sky and launch at the creep if possible.

This! The other day, a woman nearly wrapped her entire body around the pole I was holding. Wasn’t worth saying something so I just leaned against the wall until she got off.

Edit: was a rush hour train

Working their way up to a room with a window sounds on brand with DC at least.. I definitely like the ones where there’s the fogged glass barn door and the wall that stops before the ceiling, so at least natural light can sort of get through!

I’m a weirdo and love going to building websites and looking at their floor plans. I always thought the barn door rooms was a step up from a studio, but agree that renting that as a 1 bedroom, when there isn’t even a window, is lame.

I like this answer lol

Haha the swamp box! I remember when I first told my Philly friend, who’s never been to the desert, about the swamp cooler and they were blown away. 🤣

I’m also a previous AZ person. Love that you gave Tucson a shoutout.

I’m sorry, I lagged out loud at your reply

I’m not white
