You are completely naive if you think anyone wants a walmart built right next to their house. A block or two away? Sure, plenty of people would probably like that.

>or walmart,

Virtually no one? Plenty of folks without reliable transportation or that live in food deserts welcome new stores with access to fresh fruits, veggies and meat. Being able to walk and not depend on public transportation or expensive taxis to haul your groceries home.

You obviously have no idea how business works. They had 2 hours notice that they could sell recreational. I went in on the second day to hippos was in line for 15 minutes they had plenty of options and the budtenders were incredibly helpful as the inventory didn't match what the floor had. They did a wonderful job getting people in and out with the amount of people they had. In gen/ sales for dispos most of them saw a 200-300% increase in customers. If you are having that many issues waiting in line like everyone else I suggest taking advantage of online ordering so you don't have to wait and can almost guarantee you are getting what you want from their stock. My anxiety sounds like it's just as bad as yours, I just medicate differently as I couldn't afford a med license when they came out so consider yourself lucky that you have had access to medication for this long. Be happy that your fellow man can also medicate as they see fit now.

They're going to have to rebuild Watkins. That school won't be able to hold an influx of kids that development will bring.

Easy Mountain in Republic had budtenders only for medical patients.

Its pretty humorous people try to use 'nimby' as an insult. Especially considering virtually no one wants an apartment complex, or walmart, or dog park built right next to their house. The people constantly complaining about 'nimbys' are just hypocrites who have thus far been lucky with their housing location.

This, plus I wouldn't be at all surprised if 417mag didn't include young professionals. I've spent 17 years in Springfield, all of my 20s and most of my 30s and I've paid attention to what 417mag says like 10 times, including this.

I remember Steak & Ale. It was good. Far from the best but good. It was an old school steakhouse and so is Jimm's. I haven't been in several years so I can't say anything about the quality post covid. When I want a steak I go buy one and make it myself.

Okay so they were just supposed to leave it in the street and let it die during the heat wave last summer? Bad take

Don’t forget the garlic naan.

And go potty. Hopefully they clean up after their pets, but that's about 50/50 on a good day

Lindbergh’s, farmers, and progress

I'd much rather have a dog park than a bunch of neighbors who don't keep their dogs under control.

Just to help you keep your sense of direction while in Bako Mt Vernon runs north and south. Your description ( “just north of Mt Vernon street”). makes me very you might be thinking it runs East and west. Hope this helps.

You must have the worst luck. your going at peak times for sure.

No. There was a wait today. Not a big deal to me but I wouldn't recommend it to people who may drive to get there just to wait.

Sir, that'll be $12 for your Busch Light.

Springfield has (or at least used to have) a pretty wild swinger scene and a decent amount of orgies actually lol

They also get a better rewards system. I get a free OZ pretty often.

Did you go the first 2 days? The couple of times me and my friends have gone through there It was empty and I waited no more than 5 minutes each time

I've been twice and had to wait 20 minutes both times.

It's not even a full dog park though. Just somewhere for the people at the apartment to let their dogs play.

Mine is scheduled for this Friday at Ferrell-Duncan Urology with Dr. Bailey. I’m excited to get it done, yet a little nervous at the same time. My wife and I have no kids and want to make sure it stays that way.

I feel the same way, although I guess it couldn't be much worse than living in one of the neighborhoods where basically every house has a dog in the yard.
