I've been hog hunting in the Carolinas before, and it is insane.

Basically a bunch of people waiting for a pack to show up and destroying the entire group.

By the time that's done, there's another pack a field away that's wrecking everything. Hundreds of pounds of wild pork ready to harvest in 10-15 minutes.

Mopeds just need a regular dl as long as they are under 50cc. The plates are cheap.

If you don't have a dl, we'll, you're kinda fucked.

They connected my house directly to the fiber line across the street.

This is the second day I've lost internet from the afternoon into the next day. About to hit 12 hours.

Because the modem just kind of stops, they can't do anything but send someone out to me the next day. This is thevsecond time in 3 days it's happened.

I moved here last fall and was told at my first Dr appt that I am "significantly obese, per BMI."

I'm in really good shape, run every day, gym every other day, don't have a gut, eat right.

I was then told by the same Dr. "don't worry - BMI is bullshit for people who are actually active."

So...yeah. Sorry for adding to the statistical problem?

This was presented to the abutters specifically as a "company town" two years ago. One parking space each, on a road that really can't handle traffic as it is when schools start/get out. The fluff pieces that have come out are trying to make it seem like they are doing this out of the goodness of their hearts, when in reality it is to further line their pockets.

​

The "community building" is a 2 bedroom ranch that's already on the property.

It's gonna be a shitshow.
