Her audit of the police was a major source and influence on the Inquirers exposé on the police; namely those who were too hurt to patrol, but able bodied enough to work a second job.

Someone jumped on the hood of my mint z3 bmw once. Have learned that car being hit in the city is part of the game. Luckily don’t have to street park anymore. I may be interested in buying your Camry if you sell it though. Message me.

Identity politics is intellectual bankruptcy (with a healthy dose of bigotry).

Yeah you're right, more housing something like 50 units? There's multiple complexes going up all within a block right there.

For journalistic style, it should say woman, but acting like we’re suddenly non human bc we’re described by our gender is weird. I’m both female and a woman (I prefer to be called female myself but I understand I’m in the minority). I’m not suddenly an animal tho and it’s weird that’s how that’s interpreted.

Im born and raised in Philly and know so many people that drive the shortest distances. Don’t think it’s a suburban thing

I feel like "hero" in the NY metro mostly refers to the roll.
I grew up there. And while it's sometimes Italian Hero, American Hero. It's mostly give me a cutlet on a Hero and give me an Italian Sangwidge.
You'll honestly find "sandwich" used more often when not referring to the bread.
There's also a whole theoretical difference. To the point where I think Hoagie represents a distinct thing.
The New York area Sangwidge is all about meat. Most meat, most type of meat. Here is a loaf of meat that takes 3 people to eat. On a long roll.
And that's great when it's good.
But hoagie conveys something more. Like an actual human portion, a good amount of veggies. The hoagie spice. Even if it's just salt, pepper and oregano.
There's a whole hoagie gestalt, and specific hoagie flavor. A hoagie is a balanced whole, a hero is an imbalanced guilty pleasure. Hell idiots can make hoagie dip and hoagie salads. There are Primo hoagie chips and they taste like a hoagie.
They don't taste like a Sangwidge.
You're not making a sandwich pizza elsewhere. Or a hero, sub or whatever the fuck flavored anything.
Also hoagie is more fun to say.

Bought a 2019 Cherokee in June last year. It got scratches within a few months and has since had a window smashed/broken into. Maybe get one of those protective covers? May make it more of a target though

Central Jersey is a thing that only exists for people from North Jersey who don't want to be associated with North Jersey.

When you hear talk about people being spiritually bankrupted by material possessions - and freed in their absence - this has got to be what it’s about. Not exactly my philosophy, but I definitely enjoy the same relationship with my car.

Reply to comment by TooManyDraculas in Wissahickon Brewery in East Falls may be on the way out due to PECO by PettyAndretti
limited going out options??
that place is 5 minutes from Main Street in Manayunk and from Ridge and Midvale in East Falls. I don't think you're going to find more nearby 'going out options' outside of center city.
