Things a Fake Richmonder wants to save more than he wants to honor Maggie Walker

Richmonders have come out in force to express concern over the possible removal of a live oak on Broad and Brook Road to make way for a plaza featuring a Maggie Walker monument.

Status quo

Nostalgia for the late 19th Century, when a band of tree-climbing youths de facto ruled Broad Street with slingshots and broken milk bottles.

    I know this is from Fake Richmonder, but usually those posts are intelligible and reference subtle aspects of our community. This is not up to even a low bar…and the development there should be shown some respect. We know thesite as Lonesome Pine Park.

    (all the above comments) there were a few in this “series” of throwaway stories for padding that no one wants to take “credit” for, each decreasingly diminutive in size and scope. my original joke was to say i’ll be fake richmonder, since the humor is so knee jerk vomit response that it’s as loathesome as this dominant cis-spectre spitting done anonymously. subversion is best served by the non-salaried class.

  6. @billy: It’s not that no one wants to take credit for them, it’s just that they’re usually written collectively. You will see that the tagline is “RVANews Staff,” which means “RVANews Staff is taking credit for it.” We are also collectively sorry that you didn’t find it humorous. We laughed uproariously at ourselves, as per usual! Feel free to pitch a thing and write it better, for real! editor@rvanews.com
