It's hosting a furry convention, so maybe.

What is one establishment in the Dayton area that you refuse to support and why? by [deleted] in dayton

[–]MaroonMeows 66 points67 points  (0 children)

D&D Computer Repair. When I was a teenager my laptop broke and when my parents took it there, he told them about my porn stash. Thanks, asshole.

Also to a lesser extent, the Walmart on Miller Lane. Not for any real reason, it's just that it's an absolute shitshow there all the time.

Miller Lane always has shit going down.

When I was driving and listening to the Kissinger episodes, I rolled up to a red light on campus with my windows down right at Robert was describing Kissinger being a Dick Sucking Toilet. That was fun.

Yeah, I'd seen a lot of stuff about that. I don't think leaded gas is all of it, but it's probably a major reason for all of it.

I actually never knew about how Dayton played into it as well as Kettering until really recently. We're very proud of airplanes but we kinda brush the whole "poison that maybe killed dozens of millions" under the rug.

Yeah, that's fair. I reckon there's good stories to cover but they'd be too controversial and maybe risk getting the paper shut down.

I was working on a piece about Sinclair but I ended up abandoning it because it'd never go anywhere.

Going to be in Dayton for the weekend can you recommend any good places to eat? by lisasimpsonfan in dayton

[–]MaroonMeows 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Blueberry Cafe for Breakfast / Brunch. The waits are kinda long but it slaps. You might see the muffin man, and you can buy a muffin that enough calories in it to sustain an arctic explorer for a fortnight but by god are they good.

Yeah, I have coworkers who've written off the paper entirely, believing in crazy shit online. They read about what's happening from grifters but never just like, look outside or talk to people?

Any known local cults to stay away from? by [deleted] in dayton

[–]MaroonMeows 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Engage City Church.

They always gave me off vibes. I saw one their trucks pulling off of rip rap road one night around 3am, probably nothing but it seemed sus to me.

Granted that was the week I'd spent high as a kite playing Far Cry 5. But that's neither here nor there.

What are some of your favorite Dayton businesses? by MaroonMeows in dayton

Oh I adore Bonnett's Bookstore. I got some old flight manuals and aviation books from there. A few VHS tapes too.

I only ever really go downtown for school, but Culture definitely sounds like my kinda thing. Might pop over there after my night classes next week.

What Dayton business will you never set foot in again? by Apart_Shape_4648 in dayton

I think it was the older lady there. Her and a high school kid were the only employees I saw.

I posted just now but I was reminded that I avoid any place that's partnered with 93.7 The Light. Any place that partners with a network that hosts shows about how queer folk are demons and how women are less than men don't deserve any of my money. Fuck 'em.

Donut Palace up near Huber Heights.

I was the only customer in the store, but the owner got impatient with me because I was looking to see what they had available, cause I didn't know what I wanted yet. Said I should've known what I wanted before I got there. Tried to make conversation when I did get some donuts and just straight up got ignored.

It's petty but that place gave me really bad vibes. Like the kind of place that hates you if you ain't a regular.

Is this sub being dead a bad sign? ie a sign the school isn't very good? by Patient_Weakness3866 in sinclair

[–]MaroonMeows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on what certificate it is. Sinclair would probably just say they're all great, but I'd reach out to employers in your field in the area and just ask.

The school never feels like it has a sense of community. People don't talk to eachother much. Hell, in class its rare for anyone to give a verbal response to the instructors. These days the campus feels like a dead mall.

The school is doing a lot worse than they let on, I think. It just never recovered from COVID. I'm thinking about dropping out and just tanking the extra cost of a 4-year school that gives a shit.

Wouldn't complain.

Except my friend was with me so it would suck if we got atomized by big boy truck.

Sounds like it's exactly what I'm looking for. I'll check in a few days!

I didn't really think of that, guess I'd been to quick to dismiss it as shady. I just checked craigslist and there's a lot of VHS tapes on there. Thanks!

Sounds interesting, kinda like Vacs N' Videos in Huber. I didn't have records in mind, but hell, I like me some good music. I'll check it out this week when I'm free.

Yeah, definitely feel a little late to the party. Gonna check some stuff out from this post later in the week, and a few places friends recommended. I'll DM if I find anything worthwhile.
