There's one I know of that's a gas station, ice cream parlor, auto repair garage, and full gun shop.

Poors don't let friends fly.

American exceptionalism

What do you guys think about this Rochester, NY neighborhood?

Black lady up here driving a moving truck into town for a white family was not having a good time traversing our snowy March terrain. Below, I have translated, to the best of my ability, her ranting into a more comprehensible English:

Pray tell, how doth one endure such an abominable state of affairs? 'Tis beyond the realm of comprehension that you, my dear compatriots, find it within yourselves to persist in the face of such unrelenting adversity. Behold, the very Earth lies blanketed in a frigid mantle of crystalline precipitation, and this, during the supposed vernal awakening of March! Surely, the heavens themselves must weep at the sight of such an unseasonable and egregious affront to the natural order.

One shudders to contemplate the fortitude required to weather such an onslaught, to rise each morn and gaze upon a landscape more befitting the deepest, darkest depths of winter's icy embrace. And yet, here you stand, stalwart and resolute, a testament to the indomitable spirit of humanity in the face of nature's capricious whims.

But alas, I must confess that I find myself woefully ill-equipped to contend with such a state of affairs. The very notion of donning layer upon layer of woolen armor, braving the frozen wastes in a desperate bid to maintain some semblance of normalcy - why, it fills me with an existential dread the likes of which I have scarcely known!

Nay, I say unto you, this cannot be borne! Let us cast off the shackles of this wintry oppression and seek solace in more temperate climes, where the gentle breezes of spring may caress our weary brows and the verdant landscapes of renewal may soothe our frostbitten souls. For to remain here, in this arctic hellscape, is to court madness itself!
