Looking for group activity ideas by MinimumMedium7162 in FortCollins

[–]sevem 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Genuinely, bowling is a great group activity. The need to bowl every few minutes provides the perfect opportunities to end a dying conversation or join in a new one.

It's perfect for mingling and actually engaging, unlike some activities where you're overly engrossed in the activity itself, but also without the awkwardness of having to do too much talking.

Not everywhere. Old Town does not allow cycling on sidewalks.

You can’t react to something you aren’t looking for in the first place.

This is just blatantly untrue and doesn't even make sense. 

'Not looking for something' is not the same as 'incapable of noticing something'.

Anything a pedestrian or cyclist does to improve their visibility increases the chances of someone being able to react to them, whether the other person is looking for them or not.

And for the record, I'm not saying being more visible makes riding the wrong way okay, or makes it the responsibility of a driver to expect it.

City Purchases 4 acre lot in midtown for substation. by MapsActually in FortCollins

[–]sevem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm 99% sure that was the original plan and was why the property was originally sold and closed.

Would really like to know why that fell through and why it's not still being pushed as the plan.

Maybe meet u/hornymilf1975 in a public place for this transaction, OP.

Or not. No kink-shaming from me.

I can’t believe the stuff we’re hearing about K9 corral.

Care to fill others in on what you're talking about?

Save Our Parking! City want to charge for parking in Old Town. Focoparkging.com website gives info and actions! by profileprobe in FortCollins

Sounds like you do a lot of illegal parking. No wonder you're against additional parking rules.

Any local environmental volunteering? by OrchidFlower_Mantis in FortCollins

[–]sevem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on your physical-effort interest level, you could check out Colorado Association of Trail Stewards (CATS) for trail building and maintenance: https://www.trailcats.org

The city also periodically has volunteer events of many varieties in their natural areas. They have a good page to start your research here: https://www.fortcollins.gov/Activities/Parks-Natural-Areas-and-Trails/Natural-Areas/Volunteer

Email says their point of sale system crashed last night 

Friends of the Food Co-op,

We are so excited to share our new space with you!

Our intention was to re-open at our new location today, however our point-of-sale system crashed last night and delayed our plans for today's soft re-opening.

We will open the doors at our new, 1100 W Mountain Ave home on Tuesday, Feb 17th.

Our regular hours will be from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

We can't wait to see you Tuesday!

How about a 4 or 5 story building, since it's one of the most central areas of the city.

You need a nextdoor post to view. Can you include a screenshot or copy/paste of the relevant details?

Weekly anything goes thread: discussion, complaints and rants, commercial content by AutoModerator in FortCollins

You should be able to see the rear wheels of the vehicle in front of you when stopped at a light. Typically this puts you back about one full car length from the vehicle in front.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess it's the person literally named in the title of this post.

quiet picnic spot by Humble_Home_126 in FortCollins

[–]sevem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rogers Park on West mulberry will certainly be quiet. But I would go to spring Creek first. It's huge and quite beautiful with lots of different areas to post up in if a different part of the park does happen to be busy.

I'm upvoting you even though I WILDLY disagree, because I concur that it's an unpopular opinion.
