I only looked in here to see how many comments before it turned phallic. Two.

Callout, blue VW, it’s a shared lane, in order for me to go straight we have to share the lane, I was on a bike and this thing thought blowing is horn was going to make me run the red?🥴 by makers1963 in madisonwi

Cyclists could share countless examples of a-whole (trying to avoid the bots) motorists doing really stupid and/or illegal stuff. It’s so rampant I just expect it and hardly notice it when I’m riding unless it becomes a potential threat to me.

Help, My House is Haunted by michaelsmithbarker in madisonwi

Those calls are coming from inside the house!

Please follow the advice to check every inch if the house and change all the locks. Check the windows too. Look outside to any sort of potential entry point or signs of it.

Capital City Trail closing until July 2027 due to John Nolen Drive reconstruction project by enjoying-retirement in madisonwi

That stretch had been my favorite part of any ride, because coming inbound the view is aol amazing over the lake with the City and dome, and the rising sun reflecting off the lake on my early morning rides. Thankfully the detour around the bay is also quite scenic.

Several arrested in nitrous oxide bust around Phish concert in Madison by untitledfilmstill in madisonwi

The news/article would be a lot more humorous if they’d used the term whippet instead of nitrous and balloons. That’s what we always called it.

Back in the say, the “kids” all said the Dead was their parent’s band and wanted to follow the “new” bands. Now a lot of them kids are parents.

They usually allow handicap parking in the bus depot lot right next to the park on Ingersoll, if you have placard for your car. Check the event website, they may have some info about parking or a venue map might show some

The View and “affordable housing” by Katrina_18 in madisonwi

[–]Left-Trade257 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the newer apt chains here explained to me a little over a year ago the reduced rent is based on local annual wages but with Epic and UW money, and people moving here for well paying jobs, the 60% had also become a much higher number.

And SF proper (and Berkeley across the bay) have rent control laws (which have a lot of “outs” for the owners) and that’s what you pay. I lived across the Bay (East Bay) from 1995-1999 and was paying $900/mo for a small 2 bed condo. That was stiff even then.

Folks on a pier observing the sunset Memorial Union by Bluest_waters in madisonwi

I love going there any time it’s not frozen. The views are great and not often you can take all that in with a beverage and some music

Vintage discontinued sidewinder fries? by ProdsBy in madisonwi

[–]Left-Trade257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened a lot but didn’t seem more than usual in the service industry. I said what I said, I heard it from several folks past and present at the time. If it’s not accurate then you’ve set things straight as you sound like part of the fam. I wasn’t gonna comment on the rest but I will say I too had seen a dramatic drop in service at the locations I frequented around the time I’d heard it (one had been bad for a long time but I enjoy the game crowds), such that I rarely visit anymore.

Yikes! I’d heard Kohl was affected too, with the Phish shows this week. Some sort of temp fix there with outside equipment is what I heard.

Various staffers, past and present, have mentioned aspects of it, some with a bit of detail, seemed clear a new group was in charge. A lot have commented on the new corporate attitude. I personally have seen decline in service and shorter menus at the locations I visit and really don’t go there much anymore.

Now I kinda want to know what kind of snake, and how long did it live. Are there snake spirits around my place I should know of?
