I visited a town that has a breakfast place called porn and eggs. It was a regular breakfast restaurant like waffle-house but they played porn on a bunch of TVs.

My personal experience, Fairway beat both my work’s credit union and my local savings bank. This was for a condo though, which does have higher rates and more red tape than a single family home.

Always shop around, but in my case Fairway was best.

The strip club is already in the neighborhood, so any affect it had on residential housing nearby has been dealt with. Marijuana is a legal product and business, so if that somehow affects your neighborhood anymore than the 10 liquor stores do, it's a problem with the people who live in that neighborhood. In the last 3 years, while marijuana has become legal, housing prices across most of the Commonwealth have skyrocketed.

I kind of feel that marijuana isn't that big of a deal that you need titties to sell it. Do they have extra marijuana, is that the issue? Grow less you gold diggers. Like we have some surplus of titties these jokers.

Bongs and Bongos... check

She had a shoulder but elbow down was not present.

This was maybe 2005ish? I don’t think it’s open any more, but I honestly wouldn’t have guessed castaways was either so I’m not the best source for this stuff.

I understand why some people have non-moral objections to strip clubs and legal marijuana shops. They lower the valuation of the residential housing nearby.

For example, some towns have or had in recent history a ban on liquor stores and/or fast food restaurants. There's nothing morally wrong with alcohol, marijuana, strippers, tobacco, lottery tickets, fast food, or NASCAR race tracks, but having these things in your town does bring down housing valuation, which is a problem for the upper and upper middle classes.

Wow, haven’t thought of the Hu-ke-lau in a looooong time! Is it still there?

Top half or bottom half?

Or was it just up the middle?

There is a huge economic impact that's not being accounted for here. I could have paid for 2 cars in cash with the amount I've spent repaying my student loans in the last 3 years. I definitely thought I would have started a family by now but it's ridiculously hard to figure out how to pay for daycare and $850+ per month in student loans* plus car payments and a mortgage. Other countries have figured out how to pay for education without requiring people to mortgage the rest of their lives for it.

*for the first 4 years after I graduated my husband and my combined student loan payments were about $1500/month.

Who gives a shit about breasts? Give me ass and grass.

Thanks for the heads up! Because of this comment here, I ended up using this as my reason for a lower fee. They gave a $250 discount leaving me nicely below the $500 mark. :)

>re: inept government

Gee, I wonder why the government can't get stuff done.

There are solutions to these problems, but folks keep electing people that shoot down any type of legislation that would actually help the middle class.

It's not incompetence, it's malice.

Idk man, I went one time on the way back from the Hukilau and one of the strippers was missing half an arm. That’s all I remember.

Oh yeah I forgot about that place.

Yeah, I remember it being advertised in the 90s. Is it just as skanky as it used to be?

There's still no on-site consumption allowed in Mass for dispensaries/cafes. The only way is to have a private members only club, which can't sell weed or alcohol. So, I have no idea how they think they'll get approved for a smoking lounge. And without that, the idea is just as ridiculous as a topless liquor store. There's no point in bringing entertainment into the transaction.

What can it hurt?… they actually sell more than other dispensaries.

That’s what I was afraid of - the fees. I asked them in an email and they side stepped the question.. sigh

Go to another Subaru dealer and price out the same car. Let the more expensive dealer know you found a better deal elsewhere. They'll change their tune very quickly.

Smart idea and there is zero reason for anyone to be against it. Unless you literally just arrived from the Mayflower.

Castaways was Castaways in the 90s when I was stopping at the Diner for 2am food after Haven on Tuesday nights.

Also, Castaways = gross.

Absolutely disgusting! To think such vile and perfidious establishments should operate IN OUR STATE! It is not just absurd, but absolutely obscene! I am sick just thinking about it! Better leave that type of business to Nevada and Tortuga.
