@Kevin "you hate hearing the planes taking off from Logan? A few more stories and we can alter the flight paths"

I do wonder how many of those 2700 spaces they need to replace under joint development regs. I'm all for retaining end-of-line access, but that garage hasn't filled in years.

How exactly will i spend down that $300 in store credit in addition to whatever i've got banked from prior rounds? People are saying that i'll figure something out.

@rednikki oh, not as far as i know, i just find myself buying more crazy deals before i've expended the gift certs i already have.

Fancy a challenge? Here’s an ooooold Urban Arrow with a Daum motor (who?) and I think roller brakes for $3500 in Brooklyn https://www.facebook.com/share/vg9F6Ga2Zaj6sRSr/?mibextid=79PoIi

@Andres4NY this is good work

bikepedantic, 12 days ago

@pleaseclap a "cetma" should be our base unit of bike utility. "My old Argo was pretty useful, like 0.7 cetmas" @Andres4NY

Parade of ensuittened VIPs walking the office, loudly clucking about how no one's in the office, disturbing the work of those of us in the office.

Apparently one of the VIPs knows me, waved hi, i didn't wave back because i was having a rare burst of goblin-mode productivity, and now it's An Issue. I love the cube farm.
