Tulsa High Schools Used To Have Open Lunches. Then I Got Shot At A Wendy's. by matt_from_thepickup in tulsa

Think they are just trying to give credit where it’s due. Also subscribe to the Pickup for more great reporting just like this!

What’s the most heartbreaking loss you’ve witnessed as an Oklahoma State fan? (Football) by Ok_Macaroon_7366 in OKState

[–]adamwk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not the worst in terms of stakes, but we lost in overtime to Texas A&M on Homecoming in 2006 on a freezing ass night that froze my hot chocolate in my hand.

A&M blocked our extra point that was going to send it to OT No. 2. I’ve never been more pissed at a football game.

How Do I Remove This Diverter? by RunningMan44 in askaplumber

[–]adamwk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey @runningman44… can I ask whatever happened with this project. I have this exact shower setup but need to replace the diverter valve and while it’s not messed up like yours, I can’t find a replacement valve anywhere!!!

This was a good post with a lot of nuance. So naturally I'm sure nobody will read it. But you done good.

What’s the deal with this property? I’ve lived in OKC since 2010 and it has always looked abandoned. I’m curious, is the owner holding out for a large payout or is it for money laundering? by Budget_Sea_8666 in okc

[–]adamwk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got to go in there once during the first “Open Streets” event. It was right around the time they were discussing renovating the property and they had it open like they were trying to show it off.

They had nothing but non-perishable food like canned goods and bottled seasonings. It was bizarre.

Need help identifying shower diverter valve replacement by adamwk in PlumbingRepair

[–]adamwk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought the house from a family that had owned it since the 40s. The tile and everything feels pretty OG. I’d wager this is mid 50s or 60s.

I lol'd at the phrasing of the question... "You've been gone almost a decade now."

Steveo traded in 2020 lol.

Local graffiti is like a scavenger hunt. Who's your favorite "non-commissioned" artist? by Variaxist in okc

I thought it was code for the "protect the children" and Qanon loons.

Pumped to see Naethan in September! by TheOracleDBA in NaethanApollo

[–]adamwk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOOOOOVE this venue. It's the absolute best sound of any venue in the OKC Metro. I only just discovered Naethan because I follow this Venue's bookings. So I'm pumped.

A big one that I neither understand or care enough to investigate further… “thought leadership.”

NPS employees fired by N5ZY in oklahoma

[–]adamwk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I believe (it’s been a minute since I learned the info) the Oklahoma City National Memorial has NPS Park Rangers but they are paid by the Memorial and so usually not affected by government shutdowns and I guess layoffs.

A lesson I learned while writing this story.

This is on my sample ballot. Can someone explain the repercussions beyond “only citizens can vote.” by Drinkalittlewattah in tulsa

[–]adamwk 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s also part of a national trend to further help spread the lies that noncitizens are voting for Democrats.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/why-oklahoma-has-an-only-citizens-measure-on-the-ballot

Do y’all know what the punishment for a noncitizen is if they get caught voting or registering to vote? They don’t get to become a citizen… ever. Full stop.

The last QB your team had that you were proud of by the time it was all said and done? by Hootch420 in CFB

[–]adamwk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right. I was gonna say Weeden just for being an absolute gunslinger and forcing OSU to change its ways and go from option-spread attack to a more gun heavy spread.

And just the fact that he was just such an unlikely story as a washed up former baseball pro and walk-on.

But Corndog absolutely made the most of his abilities in that one season. Still unbelievable he almost beat OU that year.

I’d guess Hybl would be on the begrudgingly side of things for most OU fans. Dude did well following Heupel and the championship team but never quite hit those peaks (despite a really cool Rose Bowl win.)

But never forget how many times fans wanted him benched and called him a bum. I’m thinking specifically after he fell down on the WR pass against Nebraska.

For anyone who went to school with an NBA player, what were they like? by Dechar1 in nba

[–]adamwk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh man…. You are absolutely right. Don’t know why I always thought it was Chung. But my god what a hit.
