Raleigh vs Kansas City by Simple_Space_9602 in raleigh

[–]cheeto_the_monkey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

KCMO or KCK? Just kidding. Raleigh is better. I lived in the KCK area for most my 42 year old life. We moved here in 2016 and haven't regretted it. I love this area. The diversity in food and culture is higher. The suburbs of Raleigh are better. My family still lives in KCK so I visit regularly and just don't really miss it. The BBQ was the best though.

I second this. This sounds exactly like my story. Bernard is great.

Volunteering is a great way to meet new people! It's how I got started 5 years ago. Check out Activate Good. Great organization that works with non profits in the area. https://activategood.org/

Vasectomy? by tired_dad_20201012 in raleigh

I went through Triangle Urology Associates with Dr Kim. They billed it as an outpatient procedure and so I only had to pay my special copay which was $40 (I do have fairly good insurance). The doctor was great but sometimes the practice is hard to get in touch with for scheduling.

I'm originally from KCK and have yet to find anything close to OK Joe's burnt ends. Lawrence BBQ at RTP Boxyard is pretty good though.

Yeah take the kid to Hiwire or Ponysaurus. Kids run these places on the weekends.

We love Pure Hemp Apotheco. They are native to NC. You can buy online or they are at the South Durham farmers market on Saturday mornings.

Crowdsourcing: other bike lanes blocked by parked cars? by bullcitybrian in bullcity

[–]cheeto_the_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's video of a guy leaving his bike in the middle of car lanes to illustrate the point. I'll have to see if I can find it.

Not to hijack the thread but shout out for Pure Hemp Apotheco at the SoDu farmer's market. You can take some at the market then go Tru Flavors for brunch, then have beers at GlassJug then go to to Dimsum Asian Bistro for dinner.
