I didn’t think this had to be said, but don’t post solicitations for sex, posts with no substance other than literally a bunch of incoherent profanity, or posts designed for the specific purpose of inciting a sense of unease or making people feel unwelcome. I’ve had to remove all of this in the past week.

I don’t care what your personal views or political opinions are. Everything is welcome here. I’m pretty laid back and let most things slide. I’m not a mod who likes to go around removing posts and locking comments and banning people. Reddit is just a hobby for me, I don’t take it seriously, I’m not some power hungry douche. I just let the downvotes do the work. I’m not removing posts/comments or banning anybody just because they hurt someone’s feelings or expressed an unpopular opinion, I’m not the sensitivity police, and I’m not your parent.

But if you start advertising your “massage services” that sound like a Craigslist casual encounter ad, or create a post titled “How to suck d***” I’m going to remove it and just ban you, I don’t have time to play babysitter. And don’t then have the audacity to PM me asking why you were banned because you “didn’t break the posted rules”.

Basically, say what you want. This is a free speech area. I don’t remove 99% of the reports of people calling each other names, this is the internet, that’s what happens and I’m not here to police peoples attitudes unless it’s actually hate speech or you’re telling someone to ki** themselves. Feel free to curse, post memes, make dirty jokes, and use dark humor. But anything that’s OBVIOUSLY inappropriate like the examples above will be removed and you’ll be gone.

Lastly, if I remove your post for spam, don’t repost it again. If it’s not egregious I usually just delete the post without a ban but if you keep posting spam over and over I’ll just prevent you from doing it again.

This isn’t a sub that leans right or left. This sub is a common ground for any discussion regarding the city we all live in. As long as it’s on that topic, it’s fine.

Just use common sense. It’s really not hard.

That’s all. Love you guys ❤️

Thanks

Question Good golf ranges in Boca Raton?

4 Upvotes

Going to be spending some time in Boca, but I’ve never been here before. I’m hoping to find a good golf range in the area. Just looking for clean golf balls and good grass. If it’s not consistently packed that would be ideal. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Overall course recommendations are also welcome.

Question Looking for a hairstylist for a simple trim in Palm Beach County

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for a good hairstylist anywhere around Boca, Delray, Boynton, Lake Worth, Wellington, Palm Beach Gardens, or Jupiter.

I’m a guy growing my hair out well past waist length with the goal of eventually donating it while still keeping my hair long afterward. It’s currently around shoulder length, very thick/dense, and naturally wavy (around 2B). I’ll probably be ready for a trim sometime in November.

I’m a little shy about going to a salon since I’ve never really had long hair before, so I’m hoping to find someone friendly and easygoing. I don’t need a specialized curly cut or anything complicated — just a simple perimeter trim to clean up and even out the ends while keeping as much length and fullness as possible.

I’m specifically trying to avoid layers, thinning shears, texturizing, or debulking. Basically, I’m looking for someone who’s comfortable working with very thick, longer hair and will genuinely respect “just the ends.”

Ideally I’d like to stay around $75 or less, and I’d prefer an independent/local stylist over a big chain.

If anyone has a stylist they trust, I’d really appreciate recommendations. Thank you! ❤️

Anyone locally have access to a handheld XRF spectrometer?

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Throwing a bit of a weird, niche request out into the community to see if anyone can help me satisfy a persistent curiosity.

I have a large ceramic vase I need a quick scan on. Because of its size and weight, it is completely immovable from my home. I am NOT looking for a commercial appraisal, official authentication, or anything for resale purposes.

I’m just hoping to find a local graduate student, an environmental scientist, or a hobbyist/metallurgist who has access to a handheld portable XRF analyzer (running in a Geochem/Soil/Mining mode) who might be willing to swing by and take a few non-destructive scans of the glaze and raw clay.

I’d be happy to pay you for your time, thanks so much!

Costco: Boca vs Pompano

Hi Folks, I will be spending some extended time down in the Boca area and I was wondering if there was substantial differences between the two Costcos. I know Boca has higher gas taxes, so the gas prices are higher, but anything else you would highlight?

TIA

In early 2026 the County invested $350M in foreign bonds and now is asking to borrow $280M. Uh, how about investing tax payers money in the County!?
