Hey thx! Looks like a nice smallish place on Google maps. I assume most boats are small 15-25hp fishing boats and not much noise/speed to deal with while in a kayak? Doesn’t look like a place fishing bros go with twin 250’s, lol. Still newish right NJ and still finding which lakes/reservoirs I can paddle in when I don’t want to drive to the shore so this’ll be nice addition👍

I miss HS for just this sort of thing. I ran an assassin game in my HS in 85 and even some teachers / administrators got in on it. So much fun.

Always bring extras because you never know who you’ll get and what kind of mood they will be in. (FWIW, I couldn’t work there and deal with all you fellow NJ morons either 🤣)

Thanks for reinforcing this. Relatively new to area and was planning on doing some paddling there this summer. Now I know. JFC… The thought of getting caught on an underwater tree while going for a dive off the boat, Aiieeeeee!

If you’re interested in architecture, Cape May has some wonderful gingerbread houses. Not been there for Xmas but from what I’ve heard the town does it well with lights. cape may architecture wiki

Some possibilities: We have been sitting for so long while driving, we take this opportunity to stretch our legs. OR... We moved to NJ after living outside of state and it's almost muscle memory that we get out of the car when getting gas. I will agree though if it's raining, I'm pretty good staying in.

Washington rock is a cool place because it’s historical and you get a view. Be forewarned it’s a somewhat distant view though.

Just my opinion, but anyone shitting into a sugar cone meant for ice cream may not be appropriate for the word “gentleman”.

Reply to comment by beachmedic23 in Should NJ Students Get 'Mental Health Days'? by greenhousecrtv
Unfortunately, different districts handle absences differently. We get the “too many absences, you’re going to lose credits” letter automatically sent home after 5 class absences but we can get doc notes and work with counselors who will make exceptions. Other districts that neighbor ours are much more strict and absences are absences and F your kid for missing any school. I understand it’s state law for kids to be in school for a certain number of days but there needs to be flexibility for extenuating circumstances like sickness or family stuff. The schools never ever have a problem when student athletes leave school early for competitions which absolutely chaps my ass.

Says the person with two working legs.👍 It’s the old saying about walking a mile in someone else’s shoes. I didn’t realize how absofuckinglutely difficult it is to get around until I lost the use of a leg and both hands are occupied holding crutches. Don’t worry though. If you’re lucky, you’ll live long enough to experience some form of mobility disability and you’ll think back to this post and have an “aha!” moment.

Yes, get my steps in. I'm on crutches and that just won't work. Wheelchairs? You've never truly experienced wait times until you have to wait for someone to push you around. I'm hoping the crutches are temporary for me but for those people that are forever bound to chairs or alternate means of transport, this is abhorrent.

The responses are all on point. Wear a suit if you have one or best clothes available. Be respectful to judge and all court employees. If there were mitigating factors, explain but preface explanation with "I'm not try to excuse myself, but just explain why I did what I did." If you were just being an idiot, well, perhaps say that this is not how I typically drive and I apologize to the court and the public. Do you have any other violations in recent years? If not, you can point to that as example of of driving habits. Look into driving schools for reducing points on license because it may be less expensive than your insurance going up (in response to tickets). Insurance rates may likely still go up, just not as much. I've never worked with traffic lawyer so don't have an opinion.
Re: jail time, you need to have done some serious shit to get jail time and unless you have multitudes of moving violations or negligently hurt someone while driving, it's verrrrry unlikely. If it you had f'd up that much, the cop probably would've taken you into custody right then. My bet is that they took off immediately looking to write another ticket.

Reply to Princeton's cost of life by AnonymousCatnt
Understand that Rt 1 is a very busy rd and can be choked with traffic even off rush hour. Rt 206 north of Princeton is usually busy but often it’s only around rush hours gets slowed down b/c if traffic. Princeton is a cool place to live (I lived in West Windsor right by N.E. Corridor train lines) but that area is pricey. There are neighborhoods in Princeton that are more Hispanic that cater to people working for the wealthy in Princeton and these >may< be less expensive. This area is predominantly to the west of Witherspoon rd going north out of town. If you don’t need to live in town, check out areas north of town up to Hillsboro or go West towards Hopewell or Pennington. Good luck finding your new digs!
Edit to add: you should go have Bent Spoon Ice cream at least once when you’re there.

Do yo honestly think if it was made anywhere else it would be better? Make it in Switzerland with fine machined parts and it would be 20x the price but likely still not waterproof.
