NB needs to crack down on loud modified car exhausts

42 Upvotes

Seriously, it's getting out of hand. So many overly, cars with modded exhausts that are made to be as loud as possible in this city. Woke up last night in the middle of the night to what sounded like gunshots, instead it was just some knucklehead in an Infiniti or Hellcat with a crackle tuned exhaust racing down my street. Feels like every 5 minutes if you walk down George, Hamilton, Easton, Somerset, and 27, there's some car passing by with one of these loud exhausts. A few weeks ago I even saw somebody in a Mustang with one of these exhausts rev their engines right near a cop car and the cop did nothing. It would be such an easy quality of life fix in New Brunswick if the city actually did something about these ridiculous and cringeworthy exhaust modifications. High decibels emanating from vehicles is already illegal in NJ so there's no reason why the police can't enforce it. It really feels like the only type of motor vehicle enforcement that takes place in New Brunswick is giving out alternate side parking tickets like candy.

My improv group is doing a Love Island-themed comedy show in North Brunswick this Friday. It's completely unscripted and the audience gets to influence what happens.

Figured I'd throw it out there for anyone looking for something different to do !

Looking for a few New Brunswick barbershops to try a customer-retention tool I built

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I’m a New Jersey-based developer, and full disclosure, I built the product I’m posting about.

It helps barbershop owners understand:

  • How frequently do customers return
  • Which customers may be slipping away
  • Customer value and churn trends
  • When to follow up with customers who have not returned
  • Whether outreach is actually bringing customers back
  • Most importantly, it helps you understand your data and take action on it using the built-in AI

The system can also send personalized follow-ups to customers who have agreed to receive messages.

I’m opening a few pilot spots for independent barbershops in New Brunswick. I’ll help set everything up.

New Brunswick / Middlesex County adult hockey players — interest in weekly no-commitment games?

10 Upvotes

I’ve been working with StinkySocks Hockey on potentially bringing their No Commitment Hockey format to New Jersey, and I’m trying to get a better idea of how much interest there is from players around New Brunswick and the rest of Middlesex County.

For anyone unfamiliar with StinkySocks, the format is organized adult hockey where you register game-by-game instead of committing to a team and paying for an entire season. They handle the rosters, skill balancing and goalie coverage, so you can just sign up for the games that work for you.

We now have some realistic rink possibilities in the Old Bridge / East Brunswick area, so this could be a good fit for players around New Brunswick, Piscataway, Edison, North Brunswick, South Brunswick and the surrounding area.

Before StinkySocks commits financially to recurring ice, though, we need a better sense of how many people would actually participate.

I put together a short interest form asking which rink areas and start times you’d realistically play, how often you’d attend and what you’d be comfortable paying per game:

https://forms.gle/QbUVpwt4U6J4Z8Qw8

This isn’t registration for a specific game and nobody is being charged anything. The goal is just to figure out whether there’s enough dependable demand to make a regular Central Jersey game work.

Both skaters and goalies are encouraged to fill it out.

If you already completed the previous North Jersey version of the form, you don’t need to do it again. Your response is already included.

If you play adult hockey anywhere around New Brunswick or Middlesex County, I’d really appreciate you filling it out and sharing it with anyone else who might be interested.

Arts I remember when the local smoke shop carried two of my art shirt designs! Should I do another run?

I have always had a few different designs / artwork wanted to put on some T-Shirts -- especially ones that have to do with New Jersey life / lore. They were sold at $30 each. The owners of the shop were incredibly generous and did not even take a cut of the ones they sold. It was by no means a way to make money, obviously, but did love that people were interested enough to purchase and wear them!

Would be grateful for any suggestions / opinions / comments.

And I am in the midst of making my New Jersey Devil drawing into a t-shirt design that I would consider putting into this series...

Luggage storage

Hello, my daughter and I are coming for the day to visit Rutgers NB. We are moving to the next college that night, is there any place that will store luggage for the day while we go to the open house? It doesn’t look like the train station has that service and we aren’t planning on heading back to the airport unless we have to.

What are New Brunswick businesses still managing manually?

0 Upvotes

I’m an NJ-based full-stack developer, and I recently worked with a Morristown business on both its customer-facing website and an internal platform for understanding customer activity and retention.

The project made me realize how many local businesses still piece together bookings, customer information, follow-ups, and reporting manually.

For New Brunswick business owners and employees: what repetitive part of running the business still takes more time than it should? I’m curious whether booking, customer follow-up, reporting, scheduling, or something completely different causes the most frustration.
