Beautiful.  :lol:


icatmember, did you not find the drop box ridic bizarre?

Yeah it's bizarre, but also really convenient.
huh? Hastings is less than a mile away from that.


30mph speed limit on Claflin, GMAFB. Everyone goes 40 on it anyway. Bump that sh*t up.
Residential/business area :dunno: seems like about the right speed. Many other places where they could bump up the speed don't think this is the one.

I would say 35, IMO. Nobody goes 30 in that stretch.

The 3rd St/Tuttle Creek Blvd/Bluemont clusterfrank (especially before they built the light on Leavenworth)

The low speed limit on Anderson all the way out to almost Scenic Dr.

Only 2 ways across the river, and one of them only goes into the state park.  Took me years how to figure out how to get to some of those areas over there.

14 Subways but only one Chipotle

Anyone remember they used to have go karts out by the airport but they sucked because they all went the same exact speed and the track was a joke.

I'd also have to add the Linear Trail, that thing is terrible.

bad go karts are better than no go karts which is where we're at now. also, linear trail seems pretty decent.

yeah the go karts were fun but it just needed a few improvements also the indoor arcade area was also turrible. oh also the laser tag thing in the mall that was kinda fun while it lasted.

linear trail is just too jumbled around town imo and a lot of it is pretty boring.

kinda hard to find things wrong w/ manhattan imo.


EDIT: I know getting rid of the dollar theater in the westloop area and replacing it w/ that cosmetology school.

This :lol:

It is like townie gold:  "Oh, a good steak place?  You should try Little Apple.  Its in Westloop.  You're going to need to hop on Bluemont.  Keep going straight for awhile and it will turn in to Anderson. . .  I know, I know.  Now, you'll see a Sonic  :love: and Walgreens :love: on your left and then Westloop on your right.  Turn in to Westloop and you can't miss it on your right."

The huge ass hump when you go across any intersection in residential areas between the mall and campus.  Especially east of campus.

Another &@#%ing WTF. Why the hell is Juliette still brick? That road is a piece of crap, but I swear to god I've heard old people talk about how it's all historic and crap. Doesn't mean it's nice to drive on, which is kinda the point of having a road.

I know, I'm going to open a bar in Aggieville that is expensive, crappy and will cater to underage girls.  I will also be closed 90% of the time for remodeling.  I think I will also name this bar after my dog and install cement floors with drains everywhere so he can sh1t and pee everywhere.

But, in the event that said bar gets over run by the Bushwackers crowd, you can just close again. Remodel some more and open back up with a smaller bar that has craptier service

Sigh. Bushwackers. Many a bush's wacked because of it. Sigh.

    Honestly I'm gonna miss you Mark!!
The Manhattan Zoo (really we have zoo? seems strange for a city for our size) has an incredibly old grizzly bear who lives on a crapty concrete slab, but he can't be moved to a nicer area, because he's so used to his crap life, that anything remotely nicer would cause him to die immediately.

Oh MHK

for fracks sake Emporia even has a craphole zoo, makes MHK zoo look very elite.

and why the hell is there not another LJS in MHK??

Look for the microwave tower that you can see from the Bill.  Then look for the hill next to it.

Only approach to it is from the south.
