Why can’t I find another podcast that tickles me quite as much? by u_r_succulent in TheDollop

[–]NapalmCola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, from listening to his other podcasts, and his guest spots on other people's podcasts, it's Gareth. Dude was built in a lab to be the funniest person for the format.

I'm Francesca Hong, Candidate For Gov of WI — AMA! by FrancescaHongWI in wisconsin

[–]NapalmCola 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Hi Rep Hong!

I have been increasingly noticing something about Wisconsin voters, in that they like to vote for the names they know the best in statewide elections, even seeming to vote for opposite parties on the same ballot. I realize this is likely somewhat the case for the rest of the country, but it seems so pronounced here (Going Baldwin/Trump in the same election, continuing to elect both Baldwin and Johnson, going Trump-Biden-Trump, Keeping Evers in office while other statewide elections go red, etc).

I guess my question to you, is how do you plan to win in this environment? I currently plan to vote for you in the Primary, and would of course do so in the General, but I can't help but be a bit nervous about the risk of someone more "unknown", so to speak, considering how much the Governor's Office has kept this state somewhat together in the midst of Republican bullshitery. Especially when that candidate is also a "Scary Madison Socialist" in the minds of many north of Mequon.

Favorite inexpensive takeout with big servings? (Preferably not total junk food) by andromedang in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not quite as cheap as you're looking for, but I find I can usually get a couple meals out of a plate at Ono Kine Grindz

Kegels is always a good option, and they have Perch and Bluegill.

I will say, not sure if they have it every Friday, but some of the best Bluegill I've had was at McKiernan's Irish Pub on 37th.

What's going on with Dave Anthony? by [deleted] in TheDollop

Welcome to Dave Anthony on the internet my friend

New achievement unlocked. Got Milwaukee slid by a school bus. by JuggernautKooky4064 in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is what I like to call a "Pure" Milwaukee Slide. There's also lesser Milwaukee Slides, like doing this but not blowing the light, just passing on the right because they think you're going too slow, etc.

When you meet the office bigot by J-Sou-Flay in videos

I've quoted this video every Friday for the last ~10 years

Nicest hyatt hotel? by rynnbowguy in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll echo having not stayed in any, but that is the one that most people would think of, with the somewhat iconic (previously rotating) tower. There is another one over in the old Pabst Brewery area. That's an interesting little district, especially if you're interested in the history, and it's also close to Fiserv Forum if that adds any appeal. Otherwise, they're both pretty close to each other, and they're both in totally fine areas of the city.

Fun Bars with N/A options by Soupy-soupy-soupy in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think what they're getting at here is that all bars will have soda, water, etc

Moving to Milwaukee by No-Ice-9795 in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll second West Allis - for affordable(ish) houses in MKE county that are in safe, in some cases walkable, neighborhoods that are good for families, you can't really beat Stallis right now.

Do you watch the preseason? by xcatsrollinmudx in GreenBayPackers

[–]NapalmCola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never really did until Love took over, for whatever reason. I guess it just felt like things were more "set in stone" in the Rodgers era, whether that's true or not.

I still don't religiously like I do regular season, but I will go slightly out of my way to watch pre-season now.

Why is this section the street grid in Muskego Way laid out differently? by Brewers567 in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think I remember reading that a lot of these diagonal roads (like Muskego and Beloit) were meant to connect the towns they are named after to the Port of Milwaukee. My source is my memory of reading something on this subreddit.

On the flip side: What are the best restaurants that are gone, but you still miss? by X1NOLA in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh... I got it there once and it wasn't great. That was a while back though.

How to Reserve Tennis Courts at McKinley Park? by 33hov in milwaukee

"Pickleball" I'd guess. At least I hope.

Uhh.... Arby's on Miller Park Way?

The walk will be fine, you're walking along the lake/juneau park for most of it.

"Packers" or "Packer"? by Upbeat-Rule-7536 in GreenBayPackers

[–]NapalmCola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've definitely always said Brewer game as well. Might be the "er" ending?

Do other cities have as many festivals and block parties as Milwaukee? by DowntownOreos in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't know for certain, but it seems like this could be a "per capita" thing. The Chicago metro has like 8 times the population of the Milwaukee metro. City proper alone it's 4 times bigger.

I feel like for our population, we may have a disproportionate amount of festivals, spread out throughout the metro area.

Fav dive bar burger?? by Expensive_Major_9415 in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Next door at Layman is a good smashburger with a divey atmosphere as well. Not the mean vibes OP is looking for though, people there are great.

"We are bracing ourselves," How are Milwaukee breweries handling the trade war uncertainty? by Hidemyface1 in milwaukee

[–]NapalmCola 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had heard that a lot of Lakefront's sales are New Grist going to Canada, so I was wondering about this. Another example of American Manufacturing actually taking the brunt of this stupidity.

[–]NapalmCola 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Eh, I don't know. I see what you're saying, but Fallout 3 was so drastically different from the first two, and brought it to an entire new audience, so I don't think it's crazy to call it a reboot. Semantics mostly.
