I shop at the grocery store next door, and noticed not too long ago while driving behind the PP that they drew in the yellow circle around the back too (I actually didn’t realize that was the back of the PP until the line appeared).

This one better win. WALT.

Longtime Bostonian, and same. Also, that’s a long walk from the Comm Ave PP to the statehouse, I hope they all got blisters.

YES re: scariness. I used to love to read these and freak myself the fuck out. It’s not that I’m not enjoying them this year- I like any and all ghost stories- but I’m not lying awake in terror like I used to. The simple, evil ones always get me; there was one a lot of years ago where someone stumbled on some kind of

You gotta show us the picture!

I’m coming out of Jez retirement for this. It’s the mooooooooooost wonderful tiiiiiiiiiiiime of the year!

I had this same issue with Better Than Sex mascara (and with most mascaras, honestly). The only one that stays put for me but isn't waterproof is the Make Up For Ever Smoky Extravagant. Love love love it.

That’s my all-time favorite! Once in a while it’ll just pop into my head and spook me.

This exact same thing is happening to me now with Mookie Betts. Seeing him doing well with the Dodgers is an uncomfortably similar feeling to seeing your ex happily living his life without you on social media. WAS WHAT WE HAD NOTHING TO YOU, MOOKIE? WHAT ABOUT 2018?!

Yes. Everyone knows New Hampshire for its beautiful scenery, but other New Englanders know that New Hampshire somehow attracts the absolute worst people. They're attracted to the live free or die thing, I think.

Lackluster as those hoagies may be now, I do still yearn for a good shorti with some kandy kakes on the side. New England hoagie rolls are hot trash.

THANK YOU. I am also an old, from south Jersey, and Wawa is in my very blood. The first time I brought my New Englander spouse back home, raving about Wawa hoagies, he had one and was like, meh. I was insulted, until I realized he was right- they are pretty meh these days. Better than, say, subway, but not the top

The only kind of Masshole there is. (I went the other direction, from the mid-Atlantic to Mass, and never looked back.)

PS- I heart your username.

Great, now I’m going to be yell-singing (in the style of my 5-year-old) DOWN BY THE BAY! to myself for the rest of the day.

NOMAHHHHHHH!

When I plugged our numbers into Warren’s universal childcare savings generator, I literally cried. Childcare is absolutely bonkers here too, and you are 100% right about the nanny/nanny share. My two went/go to a good daycare, but the costs are pretty shocking (last year we paid $44,000. Yes, that’s the real number).

This is perfect.

Tom Brady is no sentient Italian hoagie. Those have some spice and character to them. He’s like a sentient loaf of white bread.

It’s like watching disbelievingly as someone goes googly-eyed for a robot programmed to perform a personality based off the outline of a dating profile.
