  1. No cable for you!

  2. WTH?

  3. Is this the same woman who attacked the ambulance drivers?

  4. How many drunks are wandering around town and assaulting our service people?

  5. Yikes – people still use Optima?

  6. Everyone knows that “actors” are often unstable and very sensitive, hence their over-representation in deviance, substance abuse and Leftist lunacy.

  7. This happens every day hang out buy the bus station please.

  9. That family has always been wacky. There bushes essentially blocked the sidewalk adjacent to Somverille School so the kids had to walk next to, in out into, Pleasant Ave. And the NEVER shovel the sidewalk. It’s like a death walk on the way to Somerville on a snowy day. They’d rather pay the tickets than do something. Complete wackos.

  10. Curious about Tony’s photo , the NYP reported the Optimum worker is a woman
