How much time do you spend studying Wilson's papers? Are you writing a history of the Federal Reserve Act?

Thank you for continuing to provide example after example of why I hate NOVA people, and people in general.

I'm just a casual watcher at this point, but I was wondering also what "scro" means as well. I understand "bro" is like shorthand for brother - or as a buddy who is like a brother: bro. So, I thought Mr. Lion meant "bro" but misspelled it "scro"; however he has spelled it that way several times now and I am curious also as to what it means.

BTW, Thanks, to Brooklynborndad upthread for the Yuppie/Hipster explanation. That was very comprehensive.

Sigh...I remember those days.

I also remember when we lived in Arlington while my parents were living in Gaithersburg before they retired. It was no big deal to get on the Beltway and I-270 and drive there. Now we wouldn't even try that unless we absolutely had no choice.

Northern Virginia does suck. Complete waste of time and money to live there. Staunton is great, so is Richmond, Lynchburg and Roanoke. Great state other than the cesspool that is the DC spillover. Belly of the obese, fattened by federal dollars -- bunch a parasites!

Is hating NoVa still a thing nowadays? I know back in '08 and '09 it was a known fact that the rest of the state disliked NoVa because it was seen as different but I thought it kind of faded off after a while.

The Tar River is within view from my barstool and I can see bikini-clad paddle boarders doing SUP yoga. Just down the block from me there are a number of new establishments I may decide to hit up afterwards, including an axe bar that doubles as an escape room, a pickle shop offering bicycle deliveries, makerspace co-op and milk bar. Don't forget the fireworks!
