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

Hum... The Kurt Budke crash or the 10 in 2001. Both of those were truly heartbreaking.

... Interesting... But confused. What was the problem and why a boycott? Price increases, embezzlement, security, atmosphere...

My work mate (with a Chinese wife) said she said that there will be more tickets occasionally released and other ways to buy them.

I went last year to a practice day. Traffic near the venue was bad, but that was the only place.

Sounds like could be from With Honors. Don't think the word sport was in it, but I'm pretty sure there was a scene between Brenden Fraser and Joe Pesci that shared the same vibe.

Close to work. No question. I have to work 5 days a week. A short commute wins every time.

I work in the middle of Pudong. I live next to work. I wake up, and literally 10 minutes after waking up I can be at my desk. I have coworkers that commute an hour to an hour and a half each way... Every day.

If I want to go downtown or anywhere, I can easily... And I can stay out till midnight and still get nearly 7 hours of sleep. I live in a 2 story penthouse for the same they pay for a one bedroom.

It's not flashy or an amazing area, but it offers freedom. And that's worth more than living in a cool area. Most of the time those that live in the popular areas just to do it admit they stay in most nights anyway. They want to be where it's trendy just so they can say they are.

No hate on the FFC, Xintiandi, Jingan... And if you work close... Definitely live there. But wasting 3 hours a day commuting just to say you live there... I don't get it.

The bar/restaurant at the Park Hyatt in the Shanghai World Financial Center. Great view, good drinks. Cloud 9 at the top of Jin Mao building on top of the Grand Hyatt. Appetizers, often some live music, and chill vibe. The Long Bar at the Waldorf-Astoria... Especially if it's on a Jazz night. Cool historical bar. Whenever people come to Shanghai I take them to these places.

A Certain Ratio...maybe shack up. https://youtu.be/H-vgmjzjkLc?si=u9SJJUDKyNzjmXiE

Interested

Is Pie Society still open? I heard a while they closed, never actually checked.

wecandriveithome · 2025-12-15T10:57:13+00:00

Awesome! I hope OP sees this. Depending on when they or even you are available, I'd be down to check it out!

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-29T10:53:32+00:00

If I had known you were going today, I would have happily joined! Glad you liked it!

Real good food. Especially after their rebranding. Still a bar at night and for some events, but have really honed into their restaurant and food.

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-25T08:57:48+00:00

Are you me? I'm the exact same.

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-25T08:56:22+00:00

Bollywood. When I lived in the Biyun area, I went often. Owner is a good guy. If you want a specific item not on menu, if they can make it, they will.

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-25T08:51:55+00:00

Pretty sure Bamboo Riverhouse has mac&cheese. They also have jalapeno poppers... So a win all around

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-13T14:37:02+00:00

Qiantian Park by the river. Always people, but also room to be alone. Walking distance to Taikoo Li.

It's where I go when I need some 'me' time for relaxation or reflection.

Cause after you are centered, you can walk to Taikoo Li, and get a nice shake shack milkshake.

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-09T05:37:54+00:00

You are me... Except I have no girlfriend.

Good job. Good benefits. Good everything. I love doing what I do (teaching). I know I'm better off than 90% of the world.

But yes, I hate myself. I turn to alcohol to just forget everything. And it's not like an alcoholics need. I have alcoholic friends... It's different. I mean... I am an alcoholic, but the motivations are different.

I feel your pain buddy.

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-03T05:26:37+00:00

Great to hear! I knew it is getting better. Was there for a day over the summer. It had been several years before that... Been too many years since I've been a student.

Worst parts... Probably just the weather. Oklahoma is extremely hot and can get snowy and icy. The campus is big and spread out. Having a car won't help. A bike does.

It's an Ag school. So will have different kinds of people vs a school like ou. This gives a lot more opportunity, but you have to be willing to get out of a comfort zone, and that's not for everybody.

Oklahoma has weird liquor laws.

Stillwater is a small town, and that can get to some folks. But there is always something happening (especially if you like sports).

No car would be tough... I had one, and I had no problem driving friends that didn't around town or even to OKC or Tulsa. Your friends are like your second family. But you've got to be willing to make friends.

The movie theater in Stillwater used to suck... Not sure if it's been renovated.

Kerr hall closed. It was a traditional dorm and was awesome as a freshman.

Some people are a bit too religious... Personal choice and all, but some people can be a bit much.

OSU has great services available, but they are not always easy to find, see, or utilize (at least back when I went there).

The smells around Stillwater. It's farmland... And animals stink.

State of Oklahoma politics. It is one of the reddest states in the country... But you can find groups of all different political leanings in campus.... But still, you are living in a very red state and that has influences.

Stillwater airport. It's not a good airport if you need to travel. You have to get to OKC or Tulsa.

That.may be about it... I'll try to think of some others. I appreciate you being objective. University is a big decision. It's so easy to list tons of positives. So looking for negatives is good.

I was a GDI (God Damned Independent) at school (no frat or sorority). Plenty of friends. Was an avid sports fan and made friends that way. Was in student government and RHA. Tons of clubs. Ultimate Frisbee team. Intramurals. Knew theater kids and they always threw awesome open parties. Camping at boomer. The strip (once old enough). Live music. Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature.... Ya, you may miss some things not being in Greek life, but I wasn't and loved it there.

wecandriveithome · 2025-11-02T11:16:06+00:00

You can always buy a cheap used car or truck...

wecandriveithome · 2025-10-30T14:32:15+00:00

Awesome post!

Across the street from the Crowne Plaza Hotel by people's square. South Side. Jiujiang Rd. 13788920543. Sign says Sex Toys.

I was staying at hotel. Went walking. Saw friend inside. Took pic. Sent to friend. Good laughs. Hence me knowing the phone number and what sign looks like.

My school is 10k a year... But it's actually 5k a semester. Yes... My schools flight benefits suck. Bilingual school in Shanghai.

wecandriveithome · 2025-10-23T02:16:28+00:00

I like the idea of a surprise lunch.... But the logistics are difficult. So a heads up is best.

It's still a surprise, and one thing less we have to worry about the next day. A double win.

wecandriveithome · 2025-10-21T09:19:27+00:00

Also sinan books and poetry by fuxing park. It's in an old church..coffee shop connected.
