This is the last time you'll see the holiday decorations outside of Barnes & Noble. By this time next year, the bookstore will have been replaced by Anthropologie. Still unknown is what changes to the configuration of the plaza outside Barnes & Noble that will entail. Anthropologie will have outdoor dining at its Terrain Cafe, which Barnes & Noble has never needed space to accommodate.
Breaking Bethesda news...when you want to be the first to know.
ReplyDeleteLocal restaurant "Provides Customer With 'Fuck Ton Of Mayo"
DeleteLegendary.
Barnes & Noble is not open at 3AM anyway.
ReplyDeleteAnd Bethesda Lane is not "Barnes & Noble".
And at least one of your photos should have showed the Barnes & Noble sign, for context
5:55: It's right there in the top photo, dumbass.
ReplyDelete5:51: Thanks for reminding everybody of all the stories I broke this week, including the biggest one from Whitman.
A lot of breaking news across the network this week.

10:32 AM You're bitter, delusional, full of grievance.
ReplyDeleteIf believing I'm Robert Dyer delights you, so be it.
Not denying he is "Steve" tho
ReplyDeleteAnd the lame comment about "mayo" was at 9:46, one minute before "Steve" and two minutes before "Roald".
ReplyDeleteThis is written as though an outdoor eating space is a bad thing.
ReplyDeleteBarnes & Noble put Olsson's Bethesda out of business. Amazon's putting B&N out of business. It's the cycle.
I go to P&P, to support independent bookstores.
I read the comments to my wife who is recovering from eye surgery.
ReplyDeleteWhen she heard me say "I go to pee and pee", she burst out laughing.
"Barnes & Noble put Olsson's Bethesda out of business."
ReplyDeleteNot that simple. Barnes & Noble opened in Bethesda in 1997. Olsson's didn't close until 2005, when the site was cleared to make way for the Lionsgate.
There wasn't a single other location in Bethesda that Olsson's could have moved to.
ReplyDelete7:03 AM Agreed- I'm never visiting this site again.
ReplyDeleteActually- forget I said that. Where else can I find out what's going on in Bethesda? I'd have nothing to steal.
Oh well. See everyone tomorrow morning.
Roald and his goofy alter-ego, Steve.
ReplyDeleteJust like Dyer and Tarnation Bob.
