NOT DEAD! 

may have to move further into the city but I'm about this suburban life so much. 

meh,

insurance should cover your windows.  Kids may have some thyroid issues etc

apparently the radiation is going to blow all over Iowa so no big deal there

Jeez, guys.  There are loads of ways to avoid that and speed the process along.

Killing my own children sounds pretty horrible. Probably the horrible’est.

You live very near one of the largest air bases in the country, maybe the largest. You will definitely die instantly in an inferno.

Yes!

when I was a kid a popular urban legend was that Wichita was Nuke target #2 or 3 because of the aircraft manufacturing. I feel like a lot of cities claimed this, much like the third largest st. patrick's day parade.

Relatedly, I remember my sixth grade science teacher explaining how if he knew a nuke was coming he would drive straight to Wichita so he would be instantly vaporized. He was later fired after being caught calling 1-900 sex lines on a school phone.

michigancat is probably the only poster on this board who is actually going to get nuked.

I had a coworker who was like "if the US gets in the war, are you leaving the city?" just like out of the blue. I had honestly never thought about it.

Did anyone have ICBM silo near their house? There was one a few miles from my hometown. Mom says that when she was a kid they would raise the missile out of the silo to let it dry off from time to time. I think it was abandoned by the time I was a kid. Pretty sure someone has bought the site and turned it into one of those  survival bunker condo things.

Lot of them in Central KS.

Remember when we were kids and there would be Sonic booms all the time? Was that just a SW KS thing or everywhere?

I remember throwing a whole bunch of sonic booms as Guile in Street Fighter 2 when I was a kid.

The advantage that we suburb home owners have (apart from not being in the obvious #1 target city) is that we can just go out to the garage and turn on the car and listen to tunes until we suffocate in our sleep.  Add a handful of pain pills and presto!  Zero dying of fallout and no uncomfortable family executions.  Very convenient!  Now we'll probably have some arguments about what to listen to on the radio amirite!!!

I can't recall the Sonic Booms but B-52's used to fly over our house weekly and remember getting fired up about it.

hell yeah I remember them. supposedly one of my dad's farmer buddies was changing a tire on the wing of a cultivator or something (like a total dumbass) and a hotshot in an F16 saw him and buzzed him and he almost fell off.

I remember them in North Central OK back in the 80s.

[star seed 7]

I do not remember sonic booms in the east of club Orleans region

[chum1]

All the townies should remember Ft. Riley artillery booms.

The use of drones in this war is wild

lol how funny would it be if that music was actually broadcast from the drone (for dramatic flare [sic])

Poor bastard's not cultured enough to know his Hitchcock, but you know this was how he was seeing it in his mind:

The silo north of Holton was turned into Jackson Heights high school.  Young tdaver played a bball game there once (might have been the middle school, don’t remember).  For a changing room, they sent us down several flights of stairs to a dungeon classroom that had a glass control room looking area sectioned off. Very cool for us punk kids.
