Cityside is one of my favorites! Do they still have trivia nights?

I went into Maryanne's once, got my fill of unnecessary double IDing, BC douche bags, and cheap beer spilled all over me. All in 20 minutes! Never, never again.

I lived in Brookline maybe about... 4 years, 5 years ago? And I lived off of Beacon between Coolidge Corner and Reservoir. Matter of fact, more often than not I took the D Line from Beaconsfield, even though the C line was slightly closer.

You lived down the road! When I moved to Boston in '09, I lived right in Cleveland Circle. I usually took the D line to and from Copley while working at Borders.

Don't forget the affluent hippies, Twid!

If only my car had been parked in Brookline. It would have been towed because they don't allow overnight street parking, but it would have kept its wheels.

I thought the hippies were in LMNOtown, and the hipsters in Allston?

If LMNOtown = Cambridge or JP, then yes, but also in Brookline. To clarify, I'm talking about the hippies that spend 50% extra to ensure that their designer clothes are made out of all natural fibers and whatnot.

My brother's reaction was the same as yours, Twid: "Wait, this happened in Brookline?"

I live in a safe part of Brighton, although Fidelis Way is a fairly well known project right across the street. There hasn't been too much crime-related activity, although a man was shot there in April ( ) so.. there's that.

I'm inclined to think that most anyone here who would be interested in the following is already aware via FB, but what the hell, it's not like I'm going to have many opportunities to milk this situation.


SO.


Today I went outside for a cigarette around noon, picked up some quick groceries, and aimed back toward home. Then I noticed my car--parked on the street in front of my building--looked a little funny.

Then I noticed that it looked a little funny because IT DIDN'T HAVE WHEELS.







Thanks, car thieves, for picking the shittiest ten year old car on the block! Enjoy my fancy snow tires, you miserable fucks.


The end!

What I love is that they hate kids so much, they bankrupted themselves to have more at 40.

 

WE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY TO GET PREGNANT SO OUR SPOILED SON WHO WE HATED TAKING CARE OF AS A BABY CAN HAVE A SISTER, AND SOMEHOW GOT TWIN BOYS WE DON'T WANT. FUCK YOU ALL, OUR LIVES SUCK NOW BECAUSE OF BABIES.

Should've gone for a puppy.

I just think they're spoiled sacks of shit because they went to great lengths and expense to have more children than the one they already have, and now they're crying because they didn't get the girl they wanted, they got twin boys and it cost the $30k and boohooo they live in a one-bedroom apartment (maybe shoulda thought of that before you decided to spend $30k on in vitro, eh douches?).

I also got a kick out of the part where they basically say their first born is a little shithead too.

That's what hit me most about this. They clearly don't have fond memories of parenting their existing child, so why the desire for more to begin with? Just to provide apparently annoying (but now wonderful?) offspring #1 with a sibling? 

Its all sacrifice, burden and baww for them, it was all a gift gone awry for their 1st born; its all their 1st born's fault, he made them do it, they had no responsability or say in the matter.

It seriously sounds like they did it for their son, because "they had siblings." Hell, my mom had my brother so I could have a sibling also, but he was WANTED. He was planned for and loved. These parents already stated they don't love these unborn twins. They make parenting sound like a burden, a terrible fucking burden, and are using other people's opinions of it BEING a burden to back up their claims.

My dad told me he was really worried right before I was born that he wouldn't be able to love me because he loved my brother so much and just didn't know how he could possibly have room for any more love. Of course the fact that he worried about it at all separates him out from these parents, so there's that.

I can only imagine that these two will resent the twins when they inevitably act as newborn babies do. Then they'll resent the older brother for "making" them have more kids. Hope the extended families have therapists on call.

He's in custody per ABC 5.

NECN also. All I can hear are people cheering, cars honking. Someone's flashing their apartment lights on and off.

He's wounded. Something about homeowners finding a trail of blood.

Once a mighty bastion of fabulousness, the Gay Recruitment Center is an eyesore in our city. We'd do something with it, but we can't agree on the drapes..

Don't worry, I'm staying in and doubt the activity will head this way. The stay-inside order lifted just long enough for me to run over to my friend's place and pick up more greenery so, you know.. I'm set.
