recs now based on recent experience - skip teh aquarium. obv. - it might be good, but an aquarium is an aquarium, and for the same price you can go to the AVAM and take a water taxi, which are much more distinctive (likewise, the Greek/Roman/Egyptian stuff at the Walters, which is free, is v good, but you can see that stuff elsewhere too). instead, go directly do not pass go to the AVAM, where the current exhibit has some great stuff. i'd say at least 1.5-2 hours. i spent twice that, including in the store. definitely play with the music box on the first floor and also the audio thing downstairs near the bathrooms (and check out the bathroom entrance on the third floor, which has the least interesting stuff). you can do water taxis out to Fells late in the day when stuff is closing and it isn't as hot out and it's beer time.

i learned a long time ago not to look strangers up and down on the mean streets of Baltimore...can't tell you how many times i've been called "Sir"

[i learned a long time ago not to look strangers up and down on the mean streets of Baltimore

theoretically yr not supposed to do that in ny either (tho the streets in most parts of the city are hardly mean these days); i do it all the time. ppl seemed to acknowledge one another more than in ny tho - i don't know if that'a a southern thing as much as it's a "small"-town thing.

me no understand

"race and class," bro

your story proves Baltimore is a "shithole" how exactly?

Neotropical pygmy squirrel, Sunday, 24 May 2009 08:20 (fourteen years ago) link

i think he meant it proves how baltimore is weird but either way i still don't get this story i'm confused

that's why i live 10 blocks from Harlem and you live in a gated community in Whitey Washington

the dessert speaks (gabbneb), Sunday, 24 May 2009 14:23 (fourteen years ago) link

hell bus ride (harbl), Sunday, 24 May 2009 14:31 (fourteen years ago) link

haha i don't think so no gates on my community--but congratulations on feeling weird when someone says hi to you. you should get out of the house more

Mr. Que, Sunday, 24 May 2009 15:21 (fourteen years ago) link

Mr. Que thinks it's an important subject. Is he going to tell us about his Black Friends?

the dessert speaks (gabbneb), Sunday, 24 May 2009 15:29 (fourteen years ago) link

dude

Mr. Que, Sunday, 24 May 2009 15:31 (fourteen years ago) link

there's no gate where i live, and just because you happen to have been there does not exactly give you the right to talk about it--i will kindly ask you to leave personal shit out of this

Mr. Que, Sunday, 24 May 2009 15:32 (fourteen years ago) link

all of your shit is personal shit, bro

no offense harbl but gabbneb talking about his new baltimorean friends and performing classic weird gabbneb bombing on mr. que is about 4x better than whatever else was on this thread

i know max but sometimes the weird bombing really sets my teeth on edge

hell bus ride (harbl), Sunday, 24 May 2009 20:00 (fourteen years ago) link

(for what it's worth i'm very sorry i contributed to the ruining of the baltimore thread. i was just trying to understand some things, things that remain best unexplained i guess. i jumped to conclusions.)

Mr. Que, Sunday, 24 May 2009 20:03 (fourteen years ago) link

hell bus ride (harbl), Sunday, 24 May 2009 20:04 (fourteen years ago) link
