Outside my early voting location off Polo

I can't handle having to put down another dog from old age but good grief I miss dogs. Is there some where I can go to play with puppies?

I drove by the Clemmons and Lewisville Public Libraries this afternoon, and they were jam packed. I didn't have time to wait in line, so I figured I would vote another day. Which polling station gets the least action in the County? I assumed Lewisville would be a ghost town, but clearly I don't know the area that well. I guess late afternoon on a Friday was a bad choice in time too, especially the first week it opens. Is there a particular time of day that would be better too, like maybe I should try 10/11 AM instead of 3/4 PM? Also hoping it will be less packed after this week.

I moved here from a smaller county in NC, and I never had to deal with a crowd to vote. Don't want that to discourage me from voting.

anyone know whats going on? enormous police presence with cops on burke mill and other surrounding roads

Hey WS,

I apologize for using AI to create a sign to help my son win a contest. The comments were getting a bit heated and a little too personal for a post for a 6 year old. But I do understand what you’re saying about AI and the environment. I have removed that and will do better. I don’t want anyone to be upset with me or my son, because of my actions.

Also, me commenting on a response about using AI and saying I would use any tool necessary to help my son succeed wasn’t appropriate. I do care about the environment, I don’t even use straws 😭. Again, I’m sorry.

Here is a simple link to vote for my son, a recently turned 6 year old who had a hard start to his 14 months of life. He’s in the Stan Lee Foundation’s contest to win Super Kid. Born and raised in WS. He’s a very good kid, active in Little League and taking guitar lessons. He loves his foster siblings. He loves his Gecko. He loves, loves, loves Superheroes and if he wins this contest, he gets his own comic character and a trip to GalaxyCon in LA.

We got to GalaxyCon every year in Raleigh and he was met some amazing cosplayers dressed as his favorite superheroes. He’s even met William Shatner!

Thank you for your time and consideration. If you vote or comment, know we appreciate it more than you could know.

Early voting starts today. Get out and vote early. Getting the Nazis out of the house and senate majority is crucial to save this country.

Hi everyone! I moved to the area a week ago from New Orleans. I’d really appreciate recommendations of good hair salons, medical spas, dentists office, and karaoke spots with good/decent sound system. Thanks in advance!

This morning, a woman decided that a one-way street was more of a friendly suggestion than an actual traffic rule.

As someone was exiting the street, she came driving in the WRONG direction. Pretty straightforward situation, right? One person was following the rules, and the other apparently thought she was starring in Fast & Furious: Common Sense Not Included.

But wait, there’s more.

Instead of realizing her mistake, acknowledging that she was going the wrong way, or displaying even a microscopic amount of self-awareness, this woman had the absolute AUDACITY to flip off the person who was actually driving correctly.

Imagine being so confidently stupid that you break the rules and somehow convince yourself that everyone else is the problem. That’s not just a lack of common sense. That’s a premium subscription to delusion.

Her entitlement is impressive. Her judgment is nonexistent. And her ability to turn her own mistake into someone else’s fault deserves to be studied by scientists.

Honestly, people like this shouldn’t be allowed to reproduce until they’ve demonstrated basic competency in navigating both traffic and reality. The world already has enough problems without someone passing down a family heirloom of weaponized stupidity.

Somewhere out there, a driving instructor is having a headache without even knowing why.

The one-way sign was doing its job. The road was doing its job. The other driver was doing their job.
She was the only one who apparently missed the entire assignment.

Imagine being wrong, dangerous, AND rude about it. A truly spectacular combination. 🤡

TL;DR : Goes the wrong way down a one-way street, flips off the person going the right way. The audacity is honestly impressive

Hi friends as the deadline grows closer here’s a reminder of many ways to pay your property taxes

I do not recommend going in person to the county office during the last two weeks of December unless you want to wait in line for a very long time (but you do you)

BTW - did you know you don’t have to pay all at once? You can make multiple smaller payments as many times as you want (fees may be associated with payment method)

Ways to pay with NO fees
1. Check either in person, by mail, or the building drop box
2. Cash in person DO NOT send cash in the mail
3. Money order either in person, by mail, or the building drop box

Ways to pay with fees
1. Online at the Forsyth county website with card or Echeck
2. Over the phone with an automated service with card or Echeck
3. In person with card (debit or credit)

Also! If you cannot make the payments by the deadline, once the deadline has passed you can request to create a payment plan with a county revenue collector so you avoid garnishment. Interest and fees may apply, but hey better than garnishment

I'm just a DIY homeowner building a retaining wall for my driveway. I've already done the base and foundation. Just need a few hands to put blocks into my skid steer, so I can drive it to the wall and then unload onto said wall. With multiple hands it should go pretty quick, but it'll be two 8-10 hr days. If we get done early I'll pay at least 8hr regardless.

My only rule is no a$$holes, and I promise to also follow that rule!

DM me for more details

German shepherd with red collar, seems like a friendly and smart dog but ran from me so I did not chase him. Corner of Old Belews Creek rd and Silver Chalice. Last seen running up Belews Creek.

Wondering if anyone knows of anywhere in or around Winston that stock/have crappie that I can fish at? Right now the closest place I’ve found is Tuckertown Lake near the High Rock Dam but that’s almost an hour drive and I’d like to avoid that if possible. Any advice or spots are much appreciated! TIA!

Does anyone work at Costco that can help with an application I’ve submitted? It’s for the payroll clerk. Dm me if possible or if you could connect me with someone please.
