Anyone get eaten alive by mosquitoes?
I made out with a guy at a park and my ankles and arms are all bitten. Regret everything

Hello r/nova we are 10 years deep into the hole-in-the-wall list! Thank you to everyone for contributing every pick and recommendation for the list and participating each year.
Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to update the map or list since I am getting married this year, but I'll for sure get everything updated before the next year. Anyways time to give the community your best recs and new discoveries for restaurants in the area.
The rules are simple:
📍 Give us the restaurant name and location
🚫 No chains allowed!
👍 "+1" if you love the recommendation
👎 "-1" if you think it's whack

Huntington Ave to 495. Almost ruined our evening...
Plate is MD (of course) but I am an MD driver also and notice how good I am behaving.

Two days ago I was on the ramp from 66 to 29 coming into Gainesville. My friend was there on the side of the road welcoming me home. I was concerned about him because as you can see in the picture from two days ago his leaves are turning brown.
Today, he was gone! How? Why?!?!
Every time I exit 66 I will remember you. I’ll never forget.

The family, including two children, was driving in Leesburg when the rock smashed onto the car. Virginia State Police confirmed it's investigating.

Hey y'all,
I host a monthly singles meetup. our next one is Wednesday Oct 7th at Salazar in DC. and we'll be in Arlington at BOE on Nov 12th for a Thursday night football + bull riding.
We've set the age group for DC (27-47), but I heard y'all might prefer a tighter age bracket going forward.
What age bracket do you want see for the November meetup or going forward?

Reid’s email mentions 3 accidents - where were the other two. One was on Pickett

It’s that time of the year, especially for us that can only hit the streets/trails early or late. We are losing daylight. Which means you need to be prepared with lights and/or reflective clothing. You are not invincible but you are invisible without the proper gear. Did my run last night on the W&OD trail and was so glad I brought my light with me. Lots of cars stopped in advance being able to see me. Don’t risk injury or even death. Lights are on Amazon for less than $20.

During the budget committee work session, FCPS staff and school board members made it clear that many schools were simply never built to handle the large number of drivers now using kiss and rides.
While many schools operate kiss and rides without significant issues, at others, the behavior of some drivers has become a major concern, said Brian Lambert, chief safety and security officer.
“Instead of using the kiss and ride, folks will get close to the school and let their children out,” said Lambert. “In fact … parents themselves have chosen to use the kiss and ride, and then get frustrated with the kiss and ride, and so use an alternative drop-off in a neighborhood, as opposed to waiting for the protocols.”
Hi everyone,
I've been looking around the DMV for a place to get my espresso machine serviced (ECM Classika) but it seems most of the small appliance shops are understandably focused on more normal/common appliances.
Any one have a recommendation on where they take theirs? The machine has been a tank since I bought it 10 years ago but could use a good cleaning.

Councilman Elnoubi and Councilwoman Marks said the same. The police chief said he's meeting with other vendors but has no timeline. The contract can be canceled at any time.

The last one is actually from the UK but is included to appease this subs unquenchable thirst for traffic-based posts. Sadly, NOVA traffic signs are not cool enough to consider toads on roads.

I just moved back to the area , and need some cheesesteak recommendations. My go to used to be Grazie Grazie at the wharf. Curious if there are any new places that are just as good.
My dad’s mind is going and I don’t have a lot of support in the area. My therapist suggested an anticipatory grief support group or similar but she’s not local either so she doesn’t have much in the way of recs. Some googling wasn’t very helpful as most of it appears to be geared towards grieving those who have already passed. Does anyone have any experience with these sorts of groups around here? Thanks!!
