But what if it is stylish outdoor furniture? Surely yuppies will be exempted from this?

Whenever I think about how fucked up my town is, it brings a small amount of comfort to see someone else has it worse. Of course you can always make fun of Memphis.

But what about stuff like wicker that could be either? We have a spare room done in wocker. if we move the bench or a chair to the porch, then we can’t live in the Boro? I don’t think so. Just call me a hardened criminal, I guess.

I’m with Jim. I have a rocking chair of the style you see at Cracker Barrel. It could be indoor or outdoor. Who will decide??

And, umm, really. Who cares?? If someone fills their yard with trash and junk, I’m assuming you can cite them with a codes violation in Rutherford, just like you can in Davidson. But a sofa on the porch? I’m having a hard time getting worked up about that. What about the sleeping porches on old homes? Usually on the 2nd floor, they were designed to be quite large and in the summer people would often pull their mattresses outside to sleep. I think that sounds fairly delightful — like camping on your porch — but I guess it wouldn’t be allowed in Murfreesboro.

Poor D’Angelo. I just finished season two. He wasn’t that bad of a guy as far as bad guys go.

Anyway, I predict you will see the “West Virginia Effect” take hold if this passes. They just burn sofas there.

There is a house in the town I live that has a sign that says “The O House.”
Think of the movie “Office Space.”
In the yard, there is a chair that is the “O” chair.
It makes me laugh every day.

There are several large, old historic homes on Main Street that have those sleeping porches and I have seen couches on them before. Who’s going to be the one to tell the millionaires they’re trashing up the joint?

I think this new law is a bunch of bullshit, too… it’s bad enough that neighborhoods put restrictions on their residents, but I guess for things like 12 cars jacked up on lawns it’s necessary. (Can we make it illegal to keep Christmas decorations up all year long??) But seriously, this is taking it a bit too far. I don’t have a spare couch, but if I did I would haul it out front just to piss people off. Oh wait, I already have a condo association for that.

What’s the point of going to college if you can’t live in a dump while you’re there?

I not spending my beer money on lounge chairs!
