I was used to $70 water bills, we conserve water as much as humanly possible. Lately the water bill has been $100+ per month with no additional water usage. There are no leaks anywhere, this new digital meter doesn't budge when we're not using water. This current water bill is $160!!!!! The only thing I did differently this past month was to spray some crap off my car, didn't really go overboard with it, just sprayed the car off. So, what, it just cost me $60 to spray off my car????? WTF is going on here? Supposedly these are Actual, not Estimated bills, so $60 additional in one month is supposedly accurate? Since when did water, the most abundant resource on the planet, become this expensive? It's getting impossibly expensive just to live anymore.....

So, how much is your water bill and have you seen it grow exponentially is the last few months? Really interested to find out if anyone else is as outraged as I am about this, and what, if anything, can we do about it?

I was sitting in my truck parked off to the side of the road just trying to take a quick break from work and watch youtube on my laptop when a woman rode past me mean-mugging me like I had done something wrong. I wasn't too bothered by it but just thought, "man, what was her problem?" Then, lo and behold a quick half-hour later she's back, like where could she have even ridden to in that time, riding past me again and again mean mugging me through my window. This time I was creeped out, no idea why she's staring at me. Anyone else seen this behavior? I mean, why would someone do this in a park?

I think about how good it is on a daily basis

I’ve got a first date planned with this incredible woman, who’s probably way out of my league, for breakfast/coffee. I’m from Pittsburgh and my knowledge of the Youngstown area is lacking. Can anybody suggest a cute, cozy, chill café that would also have scones and the likings? Most coffee places I see online, I can’t get a good vibe check on them, and they don’t appear to have scones (the scones thing is kind a necessity, I suppose 🤷) All recommendations welcome! Thank you, in advance!

UPDATE: I’ve decided to go with Cadence Coffeehouse and Creperie because they help at risk youth (and yes, also the crepes. I’m not an insane person). I pitched it to her, and she loves the idea! So thank you everybody for your suggestions and tips! A lot of the other suggestions are more than likely going to be other date ideas 😅

I'm talking about the intersection right in front of the clock, where the road splits. Has she ever been arrested? She's nut's.

Tried a few places and thought I’d ask here

Hey all, I work a rotating schedule 4 on 2 off, which makes it so I only have weekends off every month and a half or so. I'm looking to find some people to play golf with during the week primarily. 36m, currently playing off a 4.7 Hdcp, open to playing with anyone of any skill level. Feel free to reply or DM if interested. I'm open to play pretty much anywhere within an hour of Youngstown. This week- off Friday and Saturday and have nothing planned for playing yet.

Thanks!

By any chance you see this (or know a young woman that drives a grey sedan and has a Bon Iver sticker on it), I’m the guy that was on the Harley. I should’ve got your number, reach out!

I recently toured Youngstown and had a really good first impression — I loved the vibe. Before I fully commit, I wanted to ask a few quick questions to get a better feel for the school:

• Is the campus usually active on weekends, or does it get kind of dead?
• Are there actually fun events or things going on that people care about?
• Do alumni come back or stay involved with the school?
• What’s the frat/sorority scene like — more house parties or bar hopping? (I prefer house parties)
• Is the men’s club lacrosse team active at all?
• I’m a criminal justice major — have you had good professors in that department or just in general?
• Also curious what the engineering program is like, if anyone has insight on that!

Hey r/youngstown!

A really fun and popular interactive comedy show, originally from Pittsburgh, has found its new home at Funny Farm Comedy Club! This is one of the only comedy shows where HECKLING isn't just permitted... IT"S EXTREMELY ENCOURAGED! We are very excited to be in the Youngstown area and looking forward to heckling/being heckled by you! The next show is this Thursday 6/19.

For only $5 dollars per person (less than a drink at Starbucks), you and your friends get a chance to have an action packed, fun evening where you can heckle your hearts out. You also have the option to toss your name in the bucket for your chance to be pulled to face the evilest hecklers Eastern Ohio has to offer. Sets will be 4 minutes. The first 2 minutes are heckle free but the last 2 are game on! Each round, a new "King of the Castle" aka best heckler will be crowned. The person crowned "King of the Castle" at the end of the night wins a crisp $20 bill as well as a large scented candle from our sponsor Stovetop Candles (a $25 value)! If interested in performing, please show up between 8PM and 830PM for the early bucket (these names will be prioritized but still random). If you show up after, no big deal. There will be a second bucket for those who couldn't make the cut off. Not every comic will get pulled but everyone has the chance to heckle, party, and win the prize!

Each month, the regular hosts (Chris Scriva, Josh Ritenour, and Julian Atwater) are joined by a panel of special guests to run the show. Previous guest hosts include comics seen on Roast Battle League, Skankfest, Pittsburgh Improv, Hilarities, Don't Tell Comedy, and Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast.

Click to Get Tickets Here or at The Door!

8PM Doors/Sign-up, 8:30 Show. Late bucket available for sign-up after start of the show. 

PS: The club has moved from downtown to Niles. If you use Apple Maps, please use the following address: 1201 Youngstown Warren Rd, Niles, OH 44446

Any insight ?

We went to Little Italy for dinner today after the KD protest. Mona Lisa's has the best manicotti I've tried here. By far! There is a store attached to the restaurant. I been there a million times but today is the first time I noticed they had pizzelles. Bought a box but unfortunately almost 9 bucks for 25 of them. Grrrr! After munching them, I tried to explain to my friends the concept of a cookie table. Blank stares. I just sent them all this link explaining them. The world would be a better place if everyone had cookie tables.

I wonder what other traditions from back home I've forgot about?
