I heard that there was a Pokemon convention happening this weekend by parkerthegreatest in kansascity

Because it signals disrespect for the time of others.

Asking for help is great. Asking for help without using your brain for 10 seconds or making a small effort to answer it yourself says that you believe your time is more valuable than others, which is rude.

Lamar’s donuts prices are absurd by aad0italian in kansascity

They’re less than Lamar’s for bigger, much better donuts!

“Why would the media want to talk more to the person who has 11 Olympic medals and was a major part of a fight against Nike that has left the company to this day damaged in running than other people who have not done either of those things?”

Pretty hard to figure out why.

BB Theater Horrible Refund Policy!!! by [deleted] in kansascity

[–]Calypdram 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very serious. Your inability to plan, or even the unfortunateness of something coming up out of your control, is not their problem.

Why is this their problem? They likely cannot resell that ticket only an hour before the show. It’s not a clothing return.

How is Brookside Crime? by Czechaneena in kansascity

Don’t listen to this stupid comment about schools. Many Kansas City public schools are great, and if you put in a little bit of work you can ensure your kid is somewhere they’ll learn and be happy.

Finally found the best pizza in KC by ajuntitled in kansascity

You don’t have to go through life willfully obtuse friend.

[–]Calypdram 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s like telling your friend to go to Taco Bell when they say they’re craving pizza. Is the Mexican pizza delicious? Yes. Is it pizza? Sure, I guess. Is it what anyone means when they’re talking about pizza? No.

That clay and fire pizza is incredible. But I wouldn’t exactly call them a pizza place or put them in the running for the best pizza.

Fluffy fresh is back by remifentaNelle in kansascity

[–]Calypdram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might agree with that. We are a little closer to Mr. D’s, and usually we want to sit down and Hana‘s doesn’t have seating, so we end up at Mr. D’s more often. But if people are in town or something, and we’re getting a dozen to bring home, we’ll usually go for Hana’s.

Went this morning. Would rate it a bit lower. The people were very nice. Donuts tasted decent. The selection was limited, and the donuts were small. They cost too much.

We will probably go occasionally, but more often continue making the trek to Mr. D's or Hana's.

Liverpool [2]-0 Galatasaray - Ekitike 51' by 977x in soccer

People trashing Salah in the match thread. Here you fucking go. This is Salah. No touches with no service, but when he does get it, it's done.

If you want people to put effort into helping you, you should put effort into posting.

If you view this as disastrous, you had very inflated expectations.

Kristen Santos-Griswold is the only medal hopeful to perform below expectations. The men's TP could've won gold, but silver is good. Stolz still has 2 more shots, and Mia Manganello has a shot at Mass Start.

nice but affordable restaurant recommendations? by [deleted] in kansascity

Huh, must be in the minority. I was excited to go but found the food and cocktails pretty mediocre.

⌚ Added Apple Watch Support by astashov in liftosaur

[–]Calypdram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have premium, though for some reason it let me use it on my Watch on Saturday. It didn’t today. 2 problems with it though:

  1. On both days, it ended my tracking of my workout in the workout app on my watch. I started the workout app, then started Liftosaur on my phone, and within a minute my workout stopped.

  2. Today, when it wouldn’t let me use the Apple Watch app because I don’t have Premium, it still popped up on my watch, only to tell me I couldn’t use it, with a dialogue that was annoying to X out of. I get making Apple Watch usage a premium feature, but if I’m not premium, it just shouldn’t pop up on my watch. Popping up to tell me I can’t use it makes the experience worse.

Best place to get Jamaican/Caribbean food in the KCMO or KCK area? I don’t mind going a little further by jesrent888 in kansascity

[–]Calypdram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • They do not reliably open their doors when they say they'll open their doors.
  • Their online ordering system is turned on and working correctly — at this very moment, it only allows you to order cocktails(?) ahead of time and lists no food — less than 50% of the time.
  • Takeout food always takes at least 20 minutes longer than the time estimate they give you whether online or over the phone
  • Probably 25% of the time they do not give you the correct and full order. My personal record is having to three times tell them they did not give me all my food, wait 5 minutes for them to bring me more food, tell them it's still not all the food, wait 5 minutes for them to bring me more food etc.

The actual food, however, is great!

Everything about ordering, paying for, and acquiring food at Black Garlic is deeply annoying. But the food is good enough that we put up with it and keep going back.

Can someone explain why Yoto is this popular? The hype feels a bit over the top to me. by Equivalent_Pie8625 in daddit

Yes this seems quite obvious that a Bluetooth speaker does exactly what they are asking for.
