Just a rant from a cranky old person .

If you’re in Greensboro and looking for a meaningful way to help locally, the David Wilson Food Pantry could really use a few more hands.

In September, the pantry served 581 people across 219 households — all in just four distribution days. More than 7,500 pounds of food went straight to families, seniors, and neighbors who needed support. It’s run almost entirely by volunteers, and the impact is huge.

Each month we distribute fresh produce (yams, peppers, cucumbers, onions), proteins (chicken, fish, pork, shrimp), dairy, pantry staples, and low‑sodium canned goods. We also provide infant supplies and hygiene items. A lot of the fresh produce — 612 pounds this month — comes from partners like Second Harvest Food Bank, Aldi, LCOF members, and Jamestown Presbyterian Church.

The pantry operates out of:

Lutheran Church of Our Father
3304 Groometown Road, Greensboro

It’s a small team doing big work, and we’d love to welcome a few more volunteers — whether you can help once a month, once a quarter, or whenever your schedule allows. Tasks include sorting produce, packing boxes, greeting neighbors, and helping with distribution days. It’s friendly, low‑pressure, and genuinely rewarding.

If you’re interested in volunteering or want more info, here’s the contact:

Hey everyone!

I’m the founder of 1V1 Spades LLC, and I’m organizing a competitive card gaming event at the Greensboro Coliseum on December 19.

I’m looking for experienced tournament organizers, especially those who already run 2v2 Spades tournaments, who might be interested in co-hosting.

The idea is to bring multiple tournaments together under one roof, including:

Traditional 2v2 Spades tournaments
Competitive 1v1 Spades
Other card games with established tournament communities

I’ll be handling the main event planning, venue coordination, and promotion. Co-hosts would operate their own tournaments, with space and logistics worked out together.

I’m especially interested in organizers from Greensboro, Charlotte, Raleigh, and surrounding areas.

The goal is to build a bigger competitive Spades scene and give established organizers an opportunity to reach new players.
If you already host tournaments or know someone who does, feel free to comment or DM me!

Date: December 19, 2026
Location: Greensboro Coliseum Complex, Greensboro, NC
No partner. No excuses.

Can Greensboro PD have some of their top tier social media nerds do some actual ground work on City Council? Or ya know, informing people about NC A&T homecoming this month?

This just makes me wince and hate the GPD more than I should.

I shared the release of our EP. It was not planned to be tied to Halloween - we started this process some time ago, and through a mix of being older and schedule issues, it just took quite a while to complete it.

But, as we are right up on Halloween, and the title track is Haunted, thought it would be cool to throw something together that was a bit on the darker side.

Video is Quay Brothers claymation, but works well with the audio.

Thought I would share here for anyone interested.

Still haven't been able to set up the band with independent sites like Bandcamp or Subvert, but will get to it at some point.

Thanks for reading / listening, and hope that your week is going well.

Guilford county residents can vote at any one of them. Take your pick. We get 15 days to early vote.

I'm going to be moving in the next month and am looking for some cheap/free boxes for packing. Anyone know where to get some or have any they're looking to get rid of?

Become a Citizen Scientist for Horsepen Creek!

Horsepen Creek Collective is teaming up with the Haw River Assembly's River Watch Program to monitor the health of our local waterways.

Volunteers will get hands-on experience testing water quality, exploring creek habitats, and discovering the tiny aquatic creatures that help tell us how healthy our streams are!

No science background needed—just curiosity and a love for our local environment!

Interested in becoming a River Watch volunteer?
We're planning a 2-hour River Watch training session with the Haw River Assembly here in Greensboro and are considering two dates:

Sunday, November 1 – Afternoon

Sunday, November 8 – Afternoon

Please let us know which date works best for you in the form below!
https://forms.gle/nNc76zEqq3KKKKSm9

We'd love to build a team of neighbors who can turn curiosity into action and help protect Horsepen Creek for generations to come!

Hey Y'all,

Driving up from Durham to to see what the Gargoyles are all about this Saturday.

What should we be getting ready for in regards to the culture there? Are y'all rowdy? Any chants to know?

Also, where do Gargoyles get breakfast the next morning?

Where can you get good bone-in fried chicken in Greensboro? Triad?

Hey! I’m 21M and live in Kernersville. Looking for someone with a YMCA membership who’d be down to work out, swim, hang out, or just become friends!
I’m into lifting and anything athletic. I’ve been wanting to try racquetball and I just got back into running so a running buddy would be cool too.
I’m willing to go to the YMCAs in Kernersville, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Jamestown, or High Point.
If you’re looking for a gym buddy or just someone new to hang out with, feel free to message me!

I am going to go vote early. Can someone explain the amendments that are on the ballot? I know they make them confusing so I want to make sure I am voting appropriately. Thanks.

I am ready to sell a one bedroom condo in the Fisher Park historic district. It has been a rental, and it has never been vacant for more than a few days because it is in such a desirable location —walking distance to downtown Greensboro but located in a lovely tree-filled neighborhood.
This would be a great property for a single person or a couple who are just starting their careers, or for a student to live in rather than paying rent while they’re going to school, or anyone who doesn’t need a large space. The monthly mortgage payment would be lower than what you’re paying in rent!
It’s also a great investment for anyone who is looking for a relatively inexpensive property to start or add to their investment portfolio. It will easily rent for $1100-$1200 a month. I am only selling it because I am looking to get out of the rental business.
It is listed the various real estate websites and I’d be glad to share the listing with anyone who is interested.
It’s listed for $129,900

So I moved into a new neighborhood and cats are fuckin everywhere. I feel like someone owns these cats cuz they all look well feed and grown. They shit in my yard and mess up the grass, my final straw is them sitting on my cars and one scratched/ shit on my new car. Really don’t want to be the big menace and go accusing neighbors. 1-2 cats roaming I can tolerate, but we’re talking 7-10 all on one dead end street. If I got a dog and let him roam and shit in everyone’s yard all hell would break loose. I’m about to start sitting outside with a BB rifle( not really, I’m cruelly joking) , but I want to be humane first. Any local resources?

Let me know your favorite restaurants that have pupusas please!!!! Any price point is an option

Who would be interested in meeting up and playing chess in some local bars?

Hi all! I was looking for a more affordable vet for my 13 y/o boxer to undergo a dental procedure. Just wanted to see people’s experience with sheets pet clinic for doggy dental services (as they seem more kitty oriented).

I also was going to have them look over a spot I believe is a hernia, and potentially fix it at the same time if possible. Sooo any doggy surgery experiences will be helpful outside of the traditional spay/neuter

Also any other cheaper dental recommendations will be appreciated :)

Puppy tax picture of big handsome for you all ❤️

My partner's mom passed away recently and her house is a definite hoarder situation. Any recs on companies that do this kind of cleanup?

waited for an hour but their lobby is too hot and there were no chairs I had to to!

Hey Greensboro,

Early voting started today and I’m excited to get out there and do my duty. While you’re at it, my son is in a contest for the Stan Lee (Marvel, X-Men, Spiderman) Foundation’s Super Kid Contest.

You can give him one free daily vote and help us to win his very own likeness in a Marvel comic and tickets to ComicCon.

History-your friendly Winston Salem Neighbors, former Greensboro resident for many years and used to work at Four Season’s JCP before finishing school.
