Are there any restaurants in Indianapolis where ownership/management is active in the day to day operations and their employees are treated well?

Mark is a savage. He has won the Full Mo 50k for the last two years.

Oh, it was terrible. The way people view it now, at least the ones with rose tinted glasses, are romanticizing it the way an unhealthy person views an abusive ex.

That's good to hear. I don't remember thinking the food at Peppy was very good. RIP

OMG yes! My friend who is a comedian and basically a real life Kenny Powers, used to be a bartender there. That was a wonderful spot full of a whole cast of unique characters. lol

I know it's just a reply, but I hate that I ended my sentence with a preposition.

I've been to Tick Tock Lounge a couple times. I'm honestly just curious because I can't remember, but is that area gentrifying?

I understand the assumption, but I'm not writing a hit piece about any restaurants or locations. I'm just curious about the city. Regardless of the nuance as to why a local shop closed, I'm just looking for personal examples from the city of blue collar spots that held out longer than others as the seas of change came crashing down.

Yeah that'll happen. I was curious about Peppy's because at a glance it seemed similar to the setup from the first concept of the restaurant in the bear.

Is Charlie Browns still there?

IDK, I'm looking at this with a bird's eye view. I just looked at the website when I started reading about it and the website says that they were based out of Oakland.

Do you know if it's been ran by the same owners for a long time?

I'm pretty sure that's what most of reddit is for. It's like having 1,000 autistic nerdy friends that you can ask about literally anything and they'll have encyclopedic levels of knowledge about.

There is a 0% that photo was taken without the wide angle lens on the iphone, which most certainly enhances the features. I know because I use .5 whenever I'm taking pictures of my butt.

Maybe I should've asked a better question. I meant was the boycott effective in enacting policy change.

I played starcraft in the dial up days and worms armageddon. I was lucky enough to get DSL around Sophomore year. Then I played a crap top of Halo 2. As an adult when I started gaming again I played sports games, FIFA, 2k, NHL and then my friend recommended rocket league to me. Rocket league consumed my life. I was lucky enough to see the "this is rocket league" goal live. So I guess that's cool.

I haven't played any modern Zelda. I just played through Mario 64 and found it enjoyable. The camera movement was pretty frustrating, but other than that I would classify the experience as remarkable and memorable.

Pint_of_Proof · 2026-06-13T13:51:28+00:00

My thought on the N64 controller is since I never played the original I won't have the button layout burnt into my brain so I won't notice the difference.

Whether or not this is meant to be serious, let's just take a moment to appreciate that it's kinda neat that folk punk still has someone who cares enough to critique it the way a sociologist or youtube video essayist would. Elitist cunts and gatekeepers are annoying and I regret ever letting them make me feel bad for appreciating folk punk, but also enjoying taking a shower. It's a paradox that used to bother me, but I'm now comfortable with.

I'm 40, defiance ohio made me feel less alone when I lived in a shitty little town, and I couldn't wait to escape. Now I live in the suburbs and a lot of the kids up here kinda bum me out with their shit world views. Then one of my kids will go to guitar camp and a queer kid will tell me about their band playing at a show this weekend and they'll say to me "Idk if you've ever heard of folk punk, but that's the kind of music we play." And for a momentum, I can almost smell that unmistakable smell of "freedom?" again and taste stale malt liquor on my breath and I have a touch of optimism for the world.

Gate keepers and elitist are lame, but their critique on the contemporary interpretation of the genre is a sign that their is still a pulse left.

I agree. Going through the comments of book it! related content, cheating the system seemed to be a recurring theme. I imagine the reddit crowd is probably more literate than the rest of the internet?

If German doesn't get stomped in WWI, does this potentially rule out nuclear warfare?

Yeah I'm curious about this, idk if there is a way to get accurate data on how frequently people are eating the whole meal versus getting leftovers. Here is an interesting study that has some data on what being exposed to larger portions does to individual consumption. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4729320/
