2. If there is a burn ban and I see you violating it I'm calling the cops all day long and I'm forever convinced you are a moron.

1. snitches are losers.
2. if lived near you and someone snitched on anyone for anything , I’d tell everyone it was you and make sure the neighborhood knew you were a snitch. Enjoy the flat tires.

Does it have an on/off switch?

No. It’s a stainless steel fire pit.

Yup. Enjoy being the person whose house doesn’t burn down!

A horrible destiny indeed.

I normally live and let live but would make an exception here.

Same here.

So all just anonymous snitches?

How do you live with yourselves?

Remember a few years ago when people were scolding others who called the police when they heard shots fired on their block or shamed people for calling the police when they saw guys dealing drugs or breaking into cars? Remember that?

Those same exact people are the ones now calling the cops because someone is using a firepit.

The Burn Ban has been lifted as of today. I’ll be firing up the fire pit this weekend.

Y’all are obsessed with panicking over sh!t.

And snitching.

Burn ban is still in effect in MD
Drought conditions still prevail

Maryland is a big place. Some parts are drier than others. The one-size-fits-all rule might still be in place, but conditions differ greatly depending on location. In the Bethesda area, we’ve had about .43” of rain in the last 14 days according to my gauge. That’s still below average, but it’s been sufficient to get the leaves and undergrowth dampened to the point where the fire danger is back to normal.


Statewide orders ads stupid. They don’t take into account local conditions, but rather pick the worst spot in the entire state and make THAT the basis for the order. That’s a dumb as zero tolerance policies in schools, where kids with Benadryl or Midol are treated with the same punishment as kids with weed or Vicodin.

True. So we'll raise your taxes to add resources so that this assessment can be made on a zip by zip basis. How's that?

Why does this need to be handled at the state level by some centralized government bureaucracy? The localities know how much rain they have received over the past months. Or don't you trust Montgomery county?

Gross. Be a real laugher if you burn your house down. Problem is, the wildfire you start probably won’t stop at just your house. You’ll probably kill others by accident.

But you go ahead and make your s’mores, Linda.

You think you’re being clever, but you’re being ignorant. The burn ban has been lifted, which means she really can go ahead and make her s’mores in a fire pit.

Doesn’t matter if the ban has been technically lifted. We’re still in a severe drought, dumbass.
