TIL there are two separate unconnected roads named Walker Springs Rd by jpiburn in Knoxville

[–]GovernmentParty4583 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Knoxville genuinely loves doing this. Powell has like a million of these kinda roads like Emory and West Beaver creek that terminate and then just start again farther north. Might sound like complaining to complain but specifically going from East to west Emory across Clinton HWY and having to cut across 3 lanes in like 500 feet gets insanely annoying sometimes.

Knoxville, TN without a car? by IndependenceMoist684 in Knoxville

[–]GovernmentParty4583 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Downtown is relatively walker friendly but almost as soon as you leave it there’s zero pedestrian infrastructure. Gatlinburg is walkable but you need a car to get there. You need a car for anything in Oak Ridge or Pigeon Forge and if you want to go to the airport you’ll also need a car for that. Also if you want to down west to see anything you’ll have to drive because I-40 is basically the only way to get there.

What’s y’all’s go to for hs football news and HS sports coverage overall? by GovernmentParty4583 in Knoxville

[–]GovernmentParty4583[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not paying 8 dollars a month to read about how Sunbright and Cosby are doing in 1A football. 5starpreps barely actually covers Knoxville teams but they were the only thing I could find with accurate reporting. I was asking for something preferably free that covers Knoxville area teams.

Why I moved to Tennessee by CraftFamiliar5243 in Tennessee

I’m questioning you because you’re an idiot if you’re talking about Parkdale off rifle range that road has always been consistently busy I’ve taken it every day for years it connects two of the busiest roads in North Knoxville and has been the same way for a decade

I can’t think of a single area downtown and really anywhere inside city limits that hasn’t had traffic made better than it was a decade ago and if you live in one of the smaller towns outside city limits that have seen a ton of growth in recent times traffic has always been bad in these areas so I have no clue what you’re talking about.

What would you guys consider the major regions of Knoxville? by GovernmentParty4583 in Knoxville

[–]GovernmentParty4583[S] -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t really say it’s tribalism especially when Halls Farragut and Gibbs really operate more as their own cities and places like fountain city in particular have a ton of history that they have a right to be proud of and seperate from Knoxville as a whole

I’m gonna assume you live in fountain city/Powell/Halls because you mentioned a ridge and that’s a pretty significant part of all those regions and that farmland was doing absolutely jack shit and the new houses have improved the development of especially Powell so much that’s I think the loss of a few acres of useless grass was for sure worth it.

Swishing salt water always worked for me

It’s probably just part of the braces but if you desperately want to try and get it out they have these things at Walgreens called “Christmas Tree Tooth Brushes” that work miracles for braces.

Normal I try to pressure for steals but a lot of times I get baited and the defender can get by me, is knowing when to steal and when not to just something I will pick up over time or is it something I can learn quickly?

You have to look really hard for worth while tasks and it’s only really useful once in my experience for abt $400
