Male in his late 30s tired of eating alone.

I tend to like people older than me just because the conversations (usually) are better with them but that in no way is a deal breaker.

Other than that, I don't care if you are a man or woman, fat or skinny, or what color, religion you get the idea. I just want a nice human to have a meal with. If we get along well, we can make it a regular thing.

I might smell like weed so I hope that doesn't bother you.

None of my posts or comments are private, so feel free to take a look at my profile and see if you think we'd get along.

If everything on your profile is private and I can't learn anything about you, do me a favor and tell me somethings in your opening message.

Thanks!

When I tell people how much I pay in rent they say it’s an absurd amount, but when I go to look for a new apartment they’re all around the same price. How much are you all paying for the place you rent? If you could also include how many bed/baths the apartment has for reference that would be great. I have a suspicion that the people saying I can find a cheaper place have not rented in the area in a long time, but maybe I am overpaying.

Public Service Announcement: Saw Sound Transit parking enforcement going around ticketing people parked illegally in the Lynnwood Transit Center HoV Permit Area. A ton of people driving solo were parking there. It's not worth getting ticketed over. Maybe they'll start towing cars too.

There's a paid parking lot across the street that's $3 for the day. Just go park there instead of driving through all 4 floors wasting time finding non-existent parking, or parking illegally in the HoV Permit Area.

I saw they updated facebook but not much else. They project being closed for a month or two at minimum. Just wanted to put this out there since I see you can still order through the delivery apps.

Just drove past the Medina jewelers on 196th and it looks like a white truck crashed through the front of the store. Robbery??

Hello, I’m looking for brunch recommendations that can accommodate a group of about 16 people for brunch. There are a few toddlers and vegetarians in the group. Willing to travel up to 30 minutes outside of the Lynnwood area. Thank you in advance!

So on 196th there’s two lanes of traffic on each side and there’s a center turn lane. The arrow markings in the middle lane are super faded but there is a common left turn into a road which makes the center lane full of cars waiting to make a left turn (near Todo). Sometimes but more rarely, a car from the opposite direction needs to make their left turn and get into the middle but it’s full of cars obviously facing the other way.

So I’m waiting along with 5 other cars trying to make this left while in the center turn lane. An incoming car from the opposite direction needs to turn left and can’t get into the middle obviously, so he just stops in the road. Everyone behind him is getting into the right lane to pass him and he’s just waiting for the person to turn but they can’t turn into traffic clears. Then a cop car stops behind the car that’s just stopped in highway lane and blares his siren for a second and I think he wants this guy to move forward and not stop in the middle of the road but he’s telling the car in the center lane to move forward a little so that this car can squeeze in between, and make his turn while perpendicular in the center lane and waiting for traffic to clear on the opposing side to go. Which isn’t a super safe turn since you can’t see with cars blocking.

I hope this makes sense but normally if a middle lane is full I have to get in earlier or later in the center lane and just adjust where I have to turn instead of stopping in the middle of the road. And I don’t expect to just squeeze into a line of cars to make an unsafe turn but that’s what this cop instructed which I find weird? Is that not weird?
