i'm pretty sure you can drink on any street east of troost.  the cops have never said a word to me or my asshole neighbor.

correct me if i'm wrong, but can't you take the 39th st. route to rainbow and transfer to the 107, which stops at 47th and mission?

47th and mission isn't very far from quick's on sw boulevard or the one on 7th.  are you eating at the ok joe's in olathe?

this is my dream thread...its why i wade through the nonsense of the internet...just to find a new place to pay people money to feed me.  and i'd like to shout out the mango room (maybe its not a secret, but no one i know knows about it), which has the best fried catfish in the city, despite its hit...

1. oklahoma joe's, hands down
2. lc's. 
3. this little caterers' shop on swift in nkc called 'smokin guns'

everythings else is memphis-level mediocre.

what about neighborhood teams? 

tchoupitoulas is an indian word, in the language of the people that lived in s. lousiana before colonization.  it means "river people".

fuckin-a, man.  fucking A.

shirtwaist.  then craftsman.  then bungalow.  c. 1900-1930.  this was american residential architectures real heyday, when it hit its stride in terms of livablility, craftsmanship and style.  the row house can kiss my ass...sharing a wall with your neighbor is for the suckers who rent.  and post war...

if i found a place unimpressive and its people unaluring, i think i would avoid internet chat rooms about those boring people and their "down homey" towns.

2 things: 1. the "bigger jigger" is on 12th, just west of benton blvd.  "tom's bigger jigger" is on st. john.  "jimmy's jigger" is on 39th and st. line. 2. blaming teachers unions for the implosion of public education is some of the most simple-minded propaganda ever un...

just for the record, i just returned from philly and here are some relevant quotes from native philadelphians: 1. regarding the amount of single women jogging alone after dark:  "...yeah, its a real dyke town, now..." and 2. regarding gentrification: "...the fags moved in and really ...

there's a lot of insanely racist and classist rhetoric in this thread.  some of you should be ashamed of yourselves.

it is a critique of your opinion, which i disagree with in the ways i feel i've elucidated.  it is not an insult to you as a person, or a judgement of your intellectual capabilities.  its an honest evaluation of what i think are some weak points in your argument.  namely, i think there is a time in ...

sorry i didn't get back to you sooner, chrizow.  i've been in philly for a week.  let me just say this, in my absence trailerkid has been speaking my exact thoughts (with frightening alacrity).  but i really meant what i said when i said i didn't want to step on toes.  you have an opinion.  man...

i don't want to step on toes, but probably there are more 20-something-kids-who-want-to-be-harvey-pekar-in-austin, and more lonely-middle-aged-fringe-lunatics-who've-never-heard-of-harvey-pekar-but-have-more-in-common-with-him-than-trendoid-austinkiddies in kc. does that make sense? let me put it th...

schlafly beers' family ties to phyllis schlafly (the woman ann coulter calls her "hero") make me physically ill.  i know she is not technically involved with the business, but i have a sneaky suspicion that some of the money you spend on schlafly beer winds up in the coffers of the extrem...

disclaimer:  i don't speak for the kansas city fire department, i'm just a guy who works for them expressing my personal opinions. that said, i don't work in midtown, so i can't really speak for anyone who does.  i do know that only companies who respond to calls in the plaza/westport area are allow...

yeah, in retrospect it seems unnecessarily antagonistic.  i apologize.

thank you.  finally some members of the general public with demonstrable common sense.  we work 24 hours, we usually shop at the closest grocery store to our firehouse, and we routinely get interrupted while shopping to go on a run.  still it pisses some people off, and the squeaky wheel gets the gr...
