Dear PoPville
“Dear PoPville,

“Dear PoPville,
do you have any previous threads/insight on where someone with curly hair can get a quality, affordable cut? Most places charge $100+ even for just a trim. It doesn’t need to be a specialized cut, just someone who doesn’t only know straight hair. Can you please share?”

This project has been a nightmare. Nothing has been done. What are the rules about putting these signs up/notifying people in advance?“

“Dear PoPville,

“A very kind, witty and helpful note left with us this morning in Brightwood Park. The orientation was unintentional so we quickly fixed it in honor of His Majesty for today. (May revert it back to upside down again tomorrow in a mild form of protest).”

“Omg this is awesome! If you have to get your vehicle emissions inspected I would recommend the kiosk at 300 Van Buren Street, NW. Definitely faster than the station near Nats Stadium. Just manually enter the VIN and the whole process is 10 minutes! More people should know about this!!”
