I forgot to mention that I have the same note from my doctor as well. Approved by the DMV and everything. I’ve just never been asked for it. I think it’s because my tint is not as dark as others.

I know it was a thing when I was growing up. North Providence, Pawtucket, and all of Eastern RI (EP, Warren, Barrington, Bristol) we’re hot spots for tint. But I’m assuming that generation of cops has since retired, and the younger ones don’t care about tint because half of them have their windows tinted themselves, shit, they’re even allowed to have beards now!

Point is, I think it’s going to trend in the direction of MA, and be allowed 35% everywhere but the windshield. Nobody cares enough anymore and there are tint sops on every other corner in Providence.

You can call BS if you want, I don’t care. I’m telling you what I know and have heard from cops themselves.

My windows are tinted and I’ve been pulled over and cops ignored the tint.

I overheard a state trooper tell a kid that he pulled over “I wouldn’t have pulled you over if it weren’t for your windshield”.

My brother in law got pulled over and the cop told him the same.

My other brother in law got pulled over and the cop made him peel off the windshield tint and let him go.

I saw a Providence cop. A cop that you have to do the MOST to make them get out of their car, bust a U turn on Manton Ave to pull over the car in front of me. I drove back down the road and after I stopped at the liquor store, and you guessed it, “Get rid of the windshield tint”.

Never in my 25+ years of living in Providence have I ever seen or heard of a cop using a tint meter outside of drivers ed classes*

> so the desire is lost on me

Me personally: my left arm gets darker than my right in the summer without it, my car is significantly cooler in the summer time, not as bright inside the car, some privacy in my car, and most importantly, I don’t want people staring at me while I pick my nose lol.

My tint isn’t that dark though. I followed MA law for tint even though I’m in RI, and cops don’t bust my balls. I’ve been pulled over for other stuff, and they just ignore the tint all together.

(Most) Cops don’t bother you unless you have your windshield tinted.. and those are words that I’ve heard come out of multiple cops mouths. 3/4ths of cops have their windows tinted anyways.

Your only problem is gonna be inspection unless you know somebody. And even thats getting harder because they have to take pictures of your car now.

I didn’t know that about the post office. I do know that Providence Fire Department were the first paid fire department in the country.

Oh that’s cool. Do you know if I’m allowed to just walk in there to take a look?

Happy Monday.

Had this lady in front of me doing this a couple months ago. She had the audacity to give me the finger when there was a train of like 7 cars behind me.

Cualquier bodega Dominican que no sea en la broa.

Beside that, try El Eden or Rico Pollo, both on Chalkstone

New England Coin Exchange right next to T’s in Cranston. By the stadium. I’m into coins and precious metals as a hobby, I’ve driven to almost all (with the exception of 1 or 2 in south county) from here to Attleboro and Seekonk. This guys the best around.

Try and go at off times though, that place can get pretty busy for the one person to handle.

“Turn around? This here ain’t no Civic, baby!”

If you’re willing to drive, there was a place in Uxbridge that had $10 8ths like 2 weeks ago.

I just want to be able to make a custom plate again! It’s been years.

I think Boscovs at the mall has all the universities in RI. I know for a fact I’ve seen PC and Brown.

No such thing

We can start a whole club!

Providence x FormulaDank

Glad to know I’m not alone lol

I know it was lmao. Mine was supposed to be taken with sarcasm too. Words just never translate well through text.

I’m just upset because parking already a bitch around there. I had to circle the block twice on Friday when I was trying to get Fellini’s.

Actually 27… And i’m only 30 buddy. Get out to where? I’ve only ever been in the Providence education system.

I learned that word this week actually. 25 years in this city, so I think the Venn diagram is an actual Venn diagram.

ITT:

Providentians: hate it

Yuppie motherfuckers: this is exactly what we needed.

> good thing no one asked you.

commits to throwing in their opinion who nobody else asked for

Didn’t know that tbh. We weren’t the only ones smoking, so I just assumed it was fine.
