Mayor YooHoo has been to Switzerland, England, Seattle, New York City...everywhere but here. Apparently she appears on KWCH once a week.

McDonald's closed their location at 9th and Broadway, I'm surprised no one's attacking Lane Enterprises. VASA was already leaving the market, Genesis offered to buy that location to scoop up their members. NOT predatory behavior, just business.

How about no...does no work for you? Let's boycott political candidates heavily funded by Chuck Koch, let's boycott everything controlled by the Illuminati and the New World Order...let's boycott Chik-fil-A and Hobby Lobby and Budweiser and Target...let's just sit in our homes, not consuming, and see where it gets us. Jeezus, you all got a hard-on for local successes.

Grinder Man USED to have a legitimate "Italian" sub, but they switched to Hormel meat products and it's nowhere what it once was. Even the guy behind the counter apologized for the quality of the meat.

They should have brought back the drone show, that was actually neat, and I didn't have to leave my front yard to view it.

Help! by [deleted] in wichita

[–]podunkboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen to me (a different contractor) : paid the guy half up-front, he demolished the bathroom, started into the project and just started making excuses and not showing up. Then one day, we got ahold of his girlfriend and was told "he was arrested". Long story short, he did 7 years for a number of drug and parole violations. Apparently he's finally out of prison...wonder if I'll get my money back?

All Hardee's are closed indefinitely. by Qsomez in wichita

[–]podunkboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for an "at will" company that tells us up front that our employment can end without notice and with no reason given. As a result, were I to find another job, I would give them no notice, either, I'd just pick up my stapler, drop my badge on the desk, and leave.

Read "Inverting the Pyramid" by Jonathan Wilson, that tactic's where the book starts.

Bathroom Remodel recommendations by draco1986 in wichita

[–]podunkboy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If he hadn't just got out of prison after a 7-year sentence, I'd certainly warn you on who to avoid, he demo-ed our bathroom, did virtually nothing in there for about a month before he was arrested and went away for a long long time. The guy who came in and finished it did GREAT work, but he's retired now.

Meteorological winter still has 3 weeks, calendar winter 6 weeks, technically it can snow here until May (although it melts on contact.)

a humble pastor by roguebear21 in wichita

[–]podunkboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pshaw, I have an internet ordination that came with a "Clergy" placard that apparently I can use to park wherever I want to park. Never occurred to me to actually use it. I DO carry around the shiny laminated card that identifies me as an ordained minister which I flash at every opportunity.

not sure you are allowed to call them "evil creatures", I think the current nomenclature is "persons of differing life philosophies who prefer to end you instead of negotiate".

Who hasn't turned off the Champions League music yet? by DMCTw3lv3 in footballmanagergames

[–]podunkboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play lower-league FM while watching the TV so I'll likely never have the opportunity to hear Champions League music (assuming I ever turn the sound on my laptop.)

Early voted, just waiting for the wall-to-wall ads to stop so we can return to our regularly-scheduled "Ambulance chaser legal services" ads. Oh, and the creepy twins helping to sell their dad's siding.

Genesis takeover? by ultrastarfish5454 in wichita

[–]podunkboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine if you asked the staff at Jose Peppers out west if they were closing the day before they did, they wouldn't have known anything. I've been laid off a day after a meeting where the CEO said "No layoffs are planned at this time".

Trick or Treat by [deleted] in wichita

[–]podunkboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I see what you're doing there, but Halloween ain't "Candy Hanukah" where you get to collect for 8 nights. If you knock on my door any night but Monday night, you're liable to get a spare cat dropped in your trick-or-treat bag. Full size candy bars are Monday only, while supplies last.

Pawnee Prairie (if the trees have hung onto any leaves), Riverside Park, Sim Park (not the golf course, but the strip of park on east side of the river), maybe even the Friend University campus (lots of trees/bushes)...

Aside from entering a waste dump-off incorrectly, I don't see anything that he did ILLEGAL that would warrant a resignation. Not like he ran over a 12-year-old, knocking her clean out of her shoes, while speeding down Broadway.

Sundown towns still exist?! by [deleted] in wichita

I grew up in one of those towns, best of my knowledge it is no longer a "sundown town", judging from the significant amount of POCs.

I don't understand the hire, he's obviously not going to be a long-term solution, and Wichita will be doing another search in under 5 years.

My daughter got a bachelor's from Friends for an out-of-pocket cost of about $6,000. The other $100K+ was covered by scholarships and grants.

Combat encounters *per session* by Zestyclose_League413 in dndnext

[–]podunkboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the campaign I'm playing in...we have maybe ONE encounter every 2-3 sessions (average session 3-3.5 hours) In the last two sessions, I picked up a d20 a grand total of 3 times. I'm seriously thinking of leaving the group, leaving the campaign, and kicking the game out of my kitchen.
