GEAR | L.L. Bean Tote Fauxnograms

For you R2Kers, Merideth Merideth as an OMG monogram shirt

Nothing really new about the fact that you can customize L.L. Bean's iconic canvas tote bags in any way you want, but I still get a kick out of it. So many opportunities for humor not taking monograms so seriously. Here are a few I'm mulling over before spring. Very important things to think about over the weekend.

The Slurpee Waves of Nantucket

The Slurpee Waves of Nantucket:
Dang! Have you ever seen waves get so cold they turn to slurpee? We haven’t. So when surfer/photographer/Stay Wild contributor Jonathan Nimerfroh showed us these sweet shots he captured in Nantucket we had to share. When we asked Jonathan what the fawk this was all about he said, “Just been super cold here. The harbor to the main land is frozen solid. No boats running.But yea, the day after I took these it actually froze up the shoreline for 200 yards out. Solid ice. I was totally tripping when I pulled up to the beach and saw this.”

Frickin' finally, mahty

DPW workers will begin removing parking space savers as part of regular trash pickup starting on Monday, the mayor's office announced today.

Mayor Walsh asked residents who have their space savers removed to not simply go into Lord of the Flies mode:

It's amazing what some snow removal can do to the morning commute

I saw these last night at 11.30 coming home from basketball. I was both surprised and pleased that Dot got snow removal like the fancier parts of the region.

Jackie Murphy reports on her commute:

Tons of snow hauled away on Gallivan and Morton last night. Huge improvement on roads! Commute yesterday Dot to JP 1.75 hrs, today 28 min.

Brighton parking vigilantes get right to the point, but in Cambridge, of course, they have to explain their thinking in great detail

space saver note wars autoshare

Marty's minions will have a bit less to pick up in Brighton next week, thanks to a vigilante who's already busy removing space savers - and leaving behind notes explaining the situation - as Kricket Feeney shows us.

Why Women's Colleges Still Matter in the Age of Trans Activism

SuburbanKoala

"you literally ignored my existence in your interview. . . . You had an opportunity to show people that Wellesley is a place that is complicating the meaning of being an ‘all women’s school,’ and you chose instead to displace a bunch of your current and past Wellesley siblings"

Why Women's Colleges Still Matter in the Age of Trans Activism:
Campus fights to erase references to women are indistinguishable from old-school misogyny.

We still have power. I suppose I should be thankful

Eversource (you know, the new NStar) is currently reporting 5,682 customers without power in Boston. Based on Twitter traffic, most of those customers are in Dorchester, from Lower Mills to Ashmont to Dorchester Center and up through Uphams Corner.

Porno snowmen, an awesomely rude way to piss off your neighbors

SuburbanKoala

no one tell otters' neighbors. #Jockslivehere

Porno snowmen, an awesomely rude way to piss off your neighbors:
 It seems that a lot of folks in the United States are getting pounded pretty hard with the white fluffy stuff. So what do you do when you’re snowbound with nuthin’ to do all day? Why not build a “rude” snowman? C’mon, your neighbors will love you for it! Trust. And not only your neighbors, but your co-workers too! I’m assuming the snowmen and snow-women doing the nasty on the hoods of cars was an unexpected surprise for an office mate. I’ve collected a few images here as inspiration for you. Now get to it!

Getting ugly in JP

by adamg

OK, so a lot of people fantasize about shoveling in the car of somebody who's annoyed them, but as Joseph Porcelli shows us, somebody actually went through with it on Weld Hill Street in Jamaica Plain, leaving us to wonder why (hey, if you live near there, why not leave a note asking why?)

Note wars erupt in Somerville

SuburbanKoala

lol somerville. passive aggressive vs. aggressive

AWC reports finding both this note at a parking space in Somerville, a city where, unlike Boston, space savers are theoretically never allowed.

There was, of course a response to the note - shown below. Even now, we can imagine the note writers in their kitchens, furiously writing additional notes on the sides of old paper grocery bags.
