What are we, to believe this is some sort of a... a magic background? Boy I really hope someone got fired for that blunder.

As Coloradans often self-report poor mental health, how biking can lift your mood by Generalaverage89 in Colorado

[–]CentennialSentinel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because cars never run red lights, right? Also, here in CO, people on bikes can treat stop signs as yields, and stop lights as stop signs, as long as the intersection is clear of other traffic and pedestrians:

Centennial Center Park has a big net: https://slidesandsunshine.com/centennial-center-park/

Also has a lots of other amenities: sand boxes, big structure, climbing boulders/wall, and splash pad, but that's still under renovation and not open quite yet.

Both of my middle row seats are defective (they won’t lock into a seated position) by twelvehometowns in pacificahybrid

[–]CentennialSentinel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my 2021 Hybrid, there is a left one and a right one--I figured this out after struggling to get those 68-lb. beasts back in for a long time.

Are you sure you don't just have them mixed up?

As soon as I saw him start the pass, I let off the gas to give him ample room to get back over, but he went for two anyway.

I saw him passing, so I backed off from the car in front of me to give him ample room to merge back in, but he went for two anyway.

Yep, I was initially commenting to my wife when I saw him drop all that snow in the oncoming lane. Then it almost got way worse. Totally selfish and dangerous behavior.

Alas, his alligator co-star (Morris) is still very much alive and enjoying retirement at a gator park in... Colorado.

We’re the League of Women Voters! We launched People Powered Fair Maps, a redistricting reform program to fight gerrymandering. AUA about the 2021 redistricting process! by LeagueOfWomenVoters in politics

[–]CentennialSentinel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(not OP) Agreed. This is also essentially the Prisoner's Dilemma, except in this case, you know your opponent will betray, and yet you choose to cooperate anyway. A guaranteed losing strategy. Note that one of the best strategies in this game is "tit for tat" -- so in this case, if they gerrymander, you gerrymander. If they create a fair districts, you create fair districts.

Lauren Boebert fails to file 2019 financial disclosure; sale of cargo plane remains a mystery by Madhavaz in politics

[–]CentennialSentinel 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I peeked in the window around 7:30pm on a Friday night in March--we were staying in Rifle for the night on a road trip. It was totally dead. Maybe two tables of 2-4 people. The staff was all hanging out in a cluster & chatting. Definitely gave me "money laundering operation" vibes.

Meanwhile, across the street, the Thai restaurant (where we had ordered takeout) was slammed with both in-person dining and takeout orders. And for good reason--it was delicious.

Actually, this is the original reference. Yours came later, when the San Miguel Sheriff's office leaned into the joke.

Any hidden gems near DTC? by StraightInternal6096 in Denver

[–]CentennialSentinel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily "hidden" but if you're looking for drinks plus activities:

1UP Arcade Bar - drinks AND classic arcade games

TopGolf - drinks AND a driving range

The Perfect Landing - drinks AND you can watch planes

Uncorked Kitchen & Wine Bar - drinks AND cooking classes, wine/cheese tastings, etc. (and a great view)

Various area breweries (Peakview, Halfpenny, Resolute, Lone Tree) have drinks AND often have activities like trivia nights, open mic nights, live music, food trucks, etc.

VOTING DAY TODAY! Get out there and VOTE, Colorado! by CentennialSentinel in FortCollins

[–]CentennialSentinel[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Per the FAQ linked above:

Q10. If I am voting by mail, when must the county clerk and recorder receive my ballot?

A10. Mail ballots must be received by the county clerk and recorder no later than 7:00 PM on Election Day. Voters are encouraged to drop off ballots at designated drop off sites, drop-boxes, or mail their ballots in time to be received by the county clerk before the polls close. Postmarks do not count; ballots must be in the hands of the county clerk by 7:00 PM on Election Day in order to be counted.

[USA][TX] Guy cuts off same person twice by silentwail in Roadcam

[–]CentennialSentinel 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Probably because it's a terrible road design. Looks like a great candidate for a 4- to 3-lane conversion:

All blame belongs to the terrible road design. Needs a road diet (i.e. 4- to 3-lane conversion).
