5037 Connecticut Ave, NW. Please consider visiting Comet Ping Pong soonest to show some support.

“Dear PoPville,

Yesterday I was finishing dinner at Comet Pizza when that large mob of pizzagaters showed up blocking the entrance, yelling at people on the sidewalk.

Which DMV location people say is the best in terms of efficiency?

“Dear PoPville,

As I stand in one of the longest DMV lines I’ve ever seen (Rhode Island location), I’m wondering which location people say is the best in terms of efficiency (is there’s such a thing when it comes to DMV’s?) or if there’s any tips for how to play it here?

“Dear PoPville,

900 Block of L St NW we’ve got these conflicting signs that I’ve gotten 20+ tickets for and been able to get off of all of them after sending them this picture. I think since the hotel has opened back up they’ve been fed up with people parking here long term and they keep calling the parking officers and posting fake signs. (more…)
