Ever notice how many rules only get followed once there's actual enforcement? Like parking in loading zones or noise after ten. Seems like half these borough rules just sit in the mail until someone gets a fine, then everyone scrambles. We're probably just gonna keep our night shifts quiet and hope they don't check, which is the same dumb gamble everyone takes. It's gonna take one guy getting a huge penalty to make the whole block suddenly care. Makes you wonder why we wait for the threat instead of just adjusting early.

Remember those smartwatches that tracked sleep? Mine's screen went totally blank after two beach trips, lol. The salt air or something killed it, and the charging port got all corroded. Felt like it was made for a perfect lab, not real life.
