“Dear PoPville,
I walked by a guy last night on U Street who smiled at me and we both did that rare walking-away-look-back-double-take and I’m kicking myself for not turning back to talk to him! On the off chance that there’s a place people actually still seek out missed connections that is not a dating app, I thought I’d try PoPville.
Think he was wearing a gray shirt with glasses and it was around 12th and U at about 6pm.
If not I think I will have to live with the memory of the feeling of making real human eye contact with a stranger in this age of technology.”
Ed. Note: If this is you, please email [email protected] so I can put you in touch with OP. PoPville is not affiliated with either party, please proceed with any potential connection at your own risk using caution as you would any online encounter. For those curious about past missed connections, some have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made.
If you have any animal/pet photos you’d like to share please send an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail(dot)com with ‘Animal Fix’ in the title and say the name of your pet and your neighborhood. If you love the animal fix and want to ensure PoPville’s long term viability please consider donating to our Patreon here.

“Dear PoPville,
I was riding in to work yesterday morning around 8:30am on 4th street, headed SE towards Navy Yard, when someone doored me. The right side of my body slammed into the door, I flipped over the door, and landed on my left side. My bike seat completely turned and my tires need to be looked at for repairs.
Police arrived on the scene, and I was taken to the ER by ambulance. I am lucky to say that I was able to walk away with some bruising on my ribs and legs and a fractured elbow. (more…)
