Maybe they showed up for the date, saw OP was 10 years older or 100 lbs gained since his/her dating profile pictures. Or maybe OP made it up. You don't know the whole story.

It looks like something James May would make during a Top Gear challenge.

Yes those are some of the reasons given but they don't really stand up to any scrutiny. For example this building predates the standard so they aren't really keeping any character, just enforcing a new one. Not to mention that's entirely a subjective quality that's being determined by a small group of officials.
Utilities some how manage on significantly smaller easements just fine all over the US and the world. And fire fighting has come a long way in the past 2000 years. There's a ton of detail on this one that's a bit beyond a reddit comment but this is really unnecessary today. At worst you can mandate firebreaks in lue of offset but for some reason municipalities across the US just use this blanket ban instead, despite virtually every single one having at least one district that manages to get by without these mandates.

Those setback requirements are super important! Imagine all the quality time a family will spend in that crappy 10 foot front yard next to the street!
I really do wonder why those setback requirements are still in place. They seem completely pointless.

Reply to comment by lemoinem in eli5: Why do most airlines still use 2-pin audio jacks for the in-flight entertainment systems on their planes? by JJGLC92
I think that's one thing people generally don't quite understand. I've seen so many people get angry with the airline employees at the terminal when the flight is delayed for some mechanical issue. It's just a bit baffling to me, do you really want to get on a plane that has an issue? It's not like you can just pull over into the median of the engine breaks down.
One time they had to change a tire and it took a well over an hour and some genius was losing his temper and shouting about how quickly he could change his car tire. Okay, yeah buddy lol.

Reply to comment by Goat_Wizard_Doom_666 in The Decline of British Blue Collar Stories On Screen: 25 years since NIL BY MOUTH first hit screens, Gary Oldman’s film has become a relic of a time when working-class stories were major cinematic events. What happened? by Bullingdon1973
Would Shameless really count as working class drama, I thought the focus was more that they were poor/low income. Maybe splitting hairs.

Reply to comment by ms_myco in ELI5 Are cows constantly producing milk? by ms_myco
Selective breeding. The cow as you know it, just like every farm animal, never existed in the wild. The caw was slowly domesticated from the wild Auroch.

Making too much milk is just a part of this process. Just like how a sheep will die from growing too much wool if let free.

The joke has a big dog so that the punchline can be, "Okay, now where's that bitch with a sore tooth?!" but OP seems to have sanitized the joke for reposting.
