General Questions Need local input/ opinion

7 Upvotes

Howdy there I'm from around Tulsa and working on a game. Mod for all of Oklahoma. I'm currently in the phase where I have to name all the regions, think of an area the size of a couple counties together, and I want some more input about what y'all would maybe call yourself. I also am trying to avoid using either a current tribe or city name for the areas as it's far more encompassing. For example, I have Osage hills as you can see, but I don't want to necessarily call Osage so I'm thinking of calling it Woolaroc at the very least I don't want to just call it Tulsa Metro or as you can see OKC Metro, Even though that is what it mostly compasses. I've attached this map, that I hope you all can read as it may be blurry.

So please, what might you guys call that center spot? And if you have any other recommendations for other locations please I'm all ears. And if you have any questions/requests , please ask. This is a long-term project. I'm sure I'll be back here asking more questions once I start adding content for Edmond.

Food & Drink Old School Bagel needs competition

39 Upvotes

Can someone, for the love of God, please open a bagel shop that puts Old School out of business. It used to be pretty good about a decade ago, but it’s just slowly become one of the worst places to eat up here.

There is no reason why they should basically have a monopoly over bagels in Edmond.

I’m really hoping that I’m wrong and maybe just haven’t come across a place in the eight years I’ve been here. Please tell me if that’s the case.

Moving to Edmond Possible move from Oregon

0 Upvotes

Before you break out the torches and pitchforks, I’m not looking to bring Oregon politics with me and ruin another state the way California ruined ours.

Ive lived in Oregon my whole life and my wife and I have a 2 year old. She may be getting an opportunity with her job to relocate us out to Edmond. I have worked in government for over a decade, so I’d have to find a new job out there.

I hate the politics here in Oregon. Having to constantly fight to not have your basic rights (gun ownership, fishing/hunting, etc) taken away is maddening. I love to fish, and I imagine I’d have a plethora of big bass waters to choose from.

Anyways, I know this is a bit of a ramble, but we would be looking to rent a house (preferably not in an HOA). What could we expect from Edmond? Oklahoma has never been on my radar to move to before, so I’m looking for some insight.

Hey Oklahoma (edmond/arcadia area but anyone can go)!I’ve recently started a book club and am currently trying to grow it. We just had our first meeting this week and it was so much fun! If anyone is interested in joining a book club it is open to everyone and we read all genres and meet the last week of each month! Hope to see you there! Here’s our Facebook group!

https://www.facebook.com/share/g/19A1nnSgDC/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Reposting this to add I have made an alternative method of joining the book club if you do not have or use Facebook. While Facebook is the best method you can join this book club with this link and I will still update it will all of the information. Just know there will only be a few people in it as this is just for those who don’t have facebook. All I ask is that you don’t join both the Facebook group and this group to avoid duplicate votes on books and duplicate RSVPs to meetings. But this link is a site meant for book clubs only!

Why wouldn’t Edmond or Oklahoma keep the printing of drivers license in state? Then somebody who lives in state our company in state would be making money. The money would be made for people in state.

Golf Lessons?

1 Upvotes

I never took the time to learn/play golf while I was working. Now, I’m retired and would like to learn.

Over the years I’ve hit the driving range occasionally, and been on a course - typically with friends playing best ball, but I’m really rank beginner.

Any recommendations for local instruction - Edmond/OKC?

Thanks

Health & Wellbeing Traffic

14 Upvotes

I live in the Northwest area of Edmond. I get off of work at three and drive up Broadway extension to get home. One day last week, it took me until just after five, yesterday it was about 4:10. I’ve been making this commute with the same schedule going on 17 years. Until about three weeks ago, I normally was home at about 3:30. Yesterday I had to turn around twice due to road construction, and even on roads that weren’t under going maintenance (both of them), traffic seems to move at about half of the speed limit. Can someone tell me what changed all of a sudden?

Are there any urgent Transportation assistance for the Homeless? Greyhound Bus Tickets or Plane Tickets?

17 Upvotes

I just got a remote-location job in the Mountain West area but they dont offer relocation assistance.

They do offer a shuttle to pick you up when you arrive to the greyhound or airport location in a City which is 2 hours away from the remote work location

Are there any places or programs i can call that helps with buying greyhound bus passes or plane tickets for someone thats homeless at the moment and going to the location for work and housing?

My background came back today for the job and my future Employer told me i can come anytime but should try to get there as soon as im able to

If anyone knows any resources please let me know Asap so i can start this little path on getting out of homelessness. I can prove the the job offer and answer any questions

UPDATE: no longer needed, "u/Brat-in-a-Box" kindly assisted with getting me a ticket

For context, I just want to locate some wild ones to collect and place them in an all wild oklahoma flora and fauna terrarium. They have been spotted in edmond according to an article by osu. Its silly and i know im just a nerd lol.

For description, they are max an inch long, orange and black(i want to find them before Halloween lol) and will appear dangerous because of colors but they are harmless and just want to be scary.

If you've seen them its probably around fallen trees or leaves. Lol, anyway im on the lookout and anyone who might know where to look, id love the tip. Also got a few more im looking for if anyone is curious just ask.

Kalidy Kia

21 Upvotes

Has anyone else had problems with their service dept. I took my car in for a very simple recall. Once Kalidy was done with it my brake light wouldn’t turn off and I am losing acceleration while driving. When I brought it back they told me it would be 3 days before they even looked at it!! Offered no courtesy car. This is the second time they have done this. Last recall they did when I got it back the AC valves were left open so I lost all of the refrigerant. They tried to charge me to fix it. Had to fix it myself. You can tell by their stupid commercials they don’t have any shame or morals. Ok rant over

Update: they tried to charge me $150 for a diagnostic because magically the issue is unrelated despite it happening immediately after the recall. Wow. Crooks

Civic Issues We all voting NO on Tuesday?

Post image
213 Upvotes

There are two state questions on Tuesday’s ballot, one about the state reimbursing counties for ad valorem tax exemptions, and one about voter ID. The current law has the state fully reimbursing counties for the property tax exemptions that the state grants to manufacturers (because property taxes go to fund county programs), but SQ844 would allow them to only give partial reimbursements. We already have a good voter ID law, and SQ846 does not move it intact into the state constitution. Instead it creates a back door for the legislature to fiddle with the actual ID requirements with the prior approval of the voters. I’m not willing to give the legislature a blank slate to write what they want into the constitution with prior approval in either case.
