Went over to Folly last night to check out some music


May 11, 2021, 11:20 AM

planned on getting something to eat, but ended up eating a bad cheeseburger from Bert's.

Anyway, I could see living over there. It has just enough restaurants and bars to make it cool, but not enough to make it Mt Pleasant. I haven't been over there in years, and its definitely changed. Some things are updated and cool, and other stuff is the hippy-ness Folly has always been. Lots of young folks, so I'd guess there is somewhere cheap to live over there, and I imagine probably a fair amount of crime.

If you haven't been there in a while, I'd wreckomend it for a stop.

Last I was there was in 2017. Had brunch at Ritas


May 11, 2021, 11:24 AM

and some dranks over at Taco Boy. That place has always been magical to me.

We used to camp in the woods out behind the washout. You had to keep the fire low to avoid detection, but that place is awesome and peaceful at night. The most laborious part is toting your cooler and camping gear the 1/2 mile road.

Taco boy moved since the last time I was there


May 11, 2021, 11:28 AM

Its much bigger now. No idea when it moved; it used to be on center street.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It was in the last 6-7 months. we were there in October


May 11, 2021, 12:23 PM

and it was still on Center street. Just got back from a long weekend there yesterday and ate at the new location.

It was about 5 or 6 people

Several I didn't know. I think at one point they started doing "spoken word", and that was my clue to take off.

Hans Wenzel, Doug jones, Danielle Howell and one other guy I can't remember

Crime is kind of underrated, too much and obviously it's


May 11, 2021, 12:12 PM

a bad thing, but too little and the cops basically become the criminals. You need to hit the crime goldilocks zone, where you don't mind hanging around outside late at night, but on the other hand getting mugged isn't terribly uncommon.

Aren’t crime numbers related to droogz?***

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I figure it's about 50% of it. The other 40% are just people


May 11, 2021, 1:17 PM

who like to steal stuff and be general POS, then the remaining 10% is domestic violence that would happen with or without the drugs/booze.

The wife and I beach in that area. I wouldn't want to stay at Folly (not enough serenity), but we always go there for a drink. It's got that old school SC Beach town feel to it. There is a hole in the wall surf bar (I think its called The Surf Bar) there that makes a nice Pain Killer. Plus Taco Boy is always good.

If there wasn't just one way in and one way out by car. But the lifestyle there is fantastic.

but Folly's the closest (so far, and with admittedly small sample size) 'atmosphere' to my end of the 'Jersey Shore', at least @ the local level (not the ####### bennies et al from North jerz / NY / PA, etc....

i consider that a good thing. Only been there juance, and it was a while back, but would totally feel at home living there

chain smoke cigs, drink Heineken, and do murder-for-hire schemes anymore. It probably doesn't resemble home for you anymore.

The Situation nor Snooki were present last night


May 11, 2021, 1:30 PM [ in reply to will probably garner non-donar TDs with this ]

But I did see an old dude so drunk on Narragansett that he could barely stand up. And there was a lot of weed being partaken.

I also saw one fat guy with a Panama Jack hat and his Hawaiian shirt unbuttoned to his navel. He had nice bewbs. I mean, for a dude. They were at least a "B" cup.

I saw the "Sitch" on a Donald Trump roast


May 11, 2021, 1:38 PM

from before Trump was elected, and before the Sitch went to jail.

Holy crap that dude is talentless. I mean, like even worse than you thought.

I remember that. It was exactly as bad as I'd given him credit for initially.
