Reply to comment by B__Malz in Birthday dinner in Allston by justinator5
I’ve been made aware b__Malz, if that’s even your real name 🤨 It’s also clear that finding a place to accommodate will be hard so my vagueness represents my openness to suggestions. Hopewell does look great. It’ll be my first time if I can get in

I’m very open to any suggestions. I enjoy all cuisines and I believe I’ve only been to lulus and some Asian spot in allston, so I did list the only place I’ve been! I understand what you’re saying but I also understand I’m not in a position to be super picky

tavern in the square is really fun for younger people on weekends!! they turn it into a club with a dj and a dance floor after dinner on saturdays. lots of students in allston so it tends to be a younger crowd

Reply to looking for all women's soccer league? by YurthTheRhino
Our coed team is sometimes looking for women if she’s interested. We’re a bunch of ~30 year olds just having fun, and have been playing together for 6+ years. We play with BSSC.

What law is repressing Gay people. MGL151B is a good law, and the courts are pretty damn good at enforcing it even. We are one of the most progressive states in the country. Public opinion overwhelmingly approves of gay rights. This isn't Oklahoma.

Reply to comment by whatsabrooin in If you’ve noticed some protests for solidarity with Iranians going on, this is one of the groups organizing them! by ShahsMan
The group isn’t anti Biden, they are just disappointed that Biden administration continues negotiating with the Islamic regime who is not only murdering its own people but also sending drones to Ukraine to kill innocent people there too. The group is non partisan and only seek yo bring awareness to their communities and help free Iran.

Those same all seasons wreck your gas mileage in the summer compared to the summer perf tires that the OP possibly swapped out.

I used to be you. Then I sprung for some winter tires because I got them at a steal from where I work. I will never go back.

Yeah, pack em up, put away your snow shovel, and take the scraper out of the car. That should do it.
Yep

My fault for understanding it’ll be difficult to fit a group that large on a Saturday night and not being picky/being willing to go to any place with decent food and drinks

Safety bub. I want the best I can get when I’m driving to the slopes on sketchy, icy back roads up north.

Yeah my point is that the more vague your descriptions are of what you're looking for, the worse suggestions you'll get.
Rather than "I want a place with good food", say something like "I enjoy tapas, Indian, and dim sum".
Rather than "I'd like somewhere new", say "I've been to restaurants A, B, and C, are there any others you'd suggest?"
Garbage in garbage out, get it?

Why would someone spend money and hassle on changing in and out winter tires? They wreck your gas mileage too.
Just go with well-treaded all-season tires and you'll be all set.

Tomorrow, preferably. Ski season hasn't been great, and you taking one for the team will guarantee that we get a good snowstorm.
More seriously, April.

Ahh, so YOU'RE the reason we haven't had any real snow!
Just kidding! Congratulations on getting winter tires, and sorry you haven't really needed them. Mid-to-late March is usually pretty solid for avoiding the last of the possible snowstorms.

Came here to say this. Costco croissants are yummy, and you can't beat the price.

I am aware. This is in reference to a specific individual who is always at Watertown Square with the same type of signs throughout the year. Whether he is actually in support of the group is anyone's guess, but the man never passes up an opportunity to talk about Joe Biden.
