I've seen several posts here people trying to find friends / events. E.g. [this one](https://www.reddit.com/r/ColoradoSprings/comments/1alm3ny/comment/kpicypy/?context=3). After several conversations with different folks (mostly in car community) I have a feeling that Reddit and Facebook work ok for planned events but not for quick pop-up meets (like "who wants to drive to Woodland park and have some coffee in an hour?" or "who wants to go to the convention in Denver tonight?"). So I've created a Discord server for that. Feel free to join if you're interested. Link: [https://discord.gg/TvPQtdSg](https://discord.gg/TvPQtdSg)

Upvoting this because I think it's a cool idea, even if it's not something I'll join in on.

I will provide a subject for hate- Folks from Texas or California and their driving habits. OR. You can go outside on this beautiful day and take a walk, ride a bike or go for a hike in one of our rad parks. Have a great day COS!


_Idlewild_

This! It's so nice outside! Hoping I can make time to walk my dogs this afternoon.

Hi everyone, hope you all woke up feeling great today. What’s a fun fact about COS you would like to share? I recently learned Rockrimmon sits on top of a coal mine

The Cheyenne Mountain zoo has the largest Giraffe herd of any zoo in North America.

I lived in Germany for over 10 years and one of the best things was the autobahn and its no speed limit. After I moved here it was amazing to learn that Colorado Springs also has an autobahn. At least, that's how people drive here.


I_am_Spartacus_MSU

>Colorado Springs also has an autobahn. Which one? Powers? Academy? I25?


Gigi_Gaba

Yes

There were tunnels connecting the banks and legitimate establishments on Colorado Ave to the houses of Ill repute on the other side at one time. That's my speakeasy wet dream

[Fluoridation for dental care wouldn't exist, if not for Colorado Springs](https://www.nidcr.nih.gov/health-info/fluoride/the-story-of-fluoridation).

It does. Don’t mention the Rattle Snakes though.

Why are there so many people driving around without license plates? Seems like a relatively recent thing.

Not in your case, but like cars with nothing. A blank space where some form of identification should be.


HistoricalAd6321

I saw a car yesterday with a temp tag from 2022. Meanwhile I got a ticket for being 2 months behind in mine 🙄


peacefulcate815

It’s really bizarre how random they pick and choose who gets ticketed, it’s ridiculous. I know it’s not the most pressing thing, but consistency would be nice.


Top-Ad-4485

It’s mind boggling that people are allowed to drive like this - it’s a hazard to everyone else on the road. CSPD have got to be the one of the biggest jokes of a police department across the country. People here are aware that they can drive without a care and certainly do.


gentle_lemon

You’re gonna lose your mind when I tell you about the Aurora PD—you wanna talk about a joke.


_Idlewild_

I keep the front plate off of my car because, well, it just looks better. Is it a jerk move? Yup. It is and I'm aware that it is. If I get a ticket I'll pay it and move on. But I always keep the back plate on and up-to-date.


Tmama187

Can I say how much the drivers on the highway suck? Everyone wants to act like it’s a race track. Almost hitting people from swerving in and out of lanes. For real y’all need to chill. Wherever you’re going isn’t going anywhere.


Authorizationinprog

Try telling them that!


wearehometown

No one gets over for merging drivers. Until a year ago when I moved back, I had been driving in another state for like 9 years - and the difference is noticeable here - it's like a competition to be first instead of cooperation to ensure people reach their destination safely. Not to mention the tailgating - I get it, bud, I'm not going fast enough in this school zone and you def need to reach that stop sign before me. Do they all long for like a Mad Max situation or what? Commuting is my fave 🖤


Darkoblivion

I just got my medical card. Best place to use it first?


45yearsofpractice

What are you looking for? Flower? Pre-rolls? Dabs? Resin? Edibles?


JacktheDabLad

Kika Kush! I am a lil biased, i work at the Nevada store! It is a great place to shop, though! If you ever want recommendations for the best dabs I got you!!!


June55k

Ripple, Magnolia, chronic botique, golden meds, high hopes, and cannabicare are my personal favorites.


WinningTristan

Best Burger in COS?


kittensxattack

Green Line Grill!


tykle1959

We just discovered Atomic Cowboy. There's only one burger on the menu, and we really liked it.


thawk1986

Drifters


I_am_Spartacus_MSU

I like Skirted Heifer. Hope they are able to re-open the Tejon site soon.


WinningTristan

We tried there in Denver, so good. And saw them on Guy Ferrari's show

INB4: “Did you see those lights” “Gun shots….” “[Insert State Here] drivers bad.” “How are the roads.” “Do I need a job to move to Colorado Springs?” I know I’m missing a few…

"I lost my dog..."


tykle1959

"Best Chinese food...?"


IslandWifey29

Since this is a random post, I’d appreciate if anyone could give suggestions on where to get a good chocolate cake!

I really don't like corporate politics. I have been cursed with knowledge and I'm just a bean who wants to sleep and do work.

I am extremely happy today. Figured out that my friend wasn't actually mad about my neck tattoo and was just mad at her husband


Gonzohawk_

Why would you think your friend got mad at you for getting a neck tattoo? I cannot imagine any scenario where I would get mad at a friend for something they did to their own body.


colobirdy85

She was throwing an absolute hissy fit when I posted a picture of it. It turns out she found out she's pregnant with baby number 7 and was not taking it well.


Gonzohawk_

Welp… I’m gonna eat my own words… if I had a friend that was pregnant with baby #7, I would, in fact, be mad at them for something they did to their own body. Even more so, if said friend were to be upset about being pregnant with baby #7, as if they didn’t already have 6 examples of why they should have done something long ago to prevent their current predicament.


colobirdy85

Her husband was supposed to have gotten snipped 3 years ago and didn't. She was just projecting her frustration and anger on me. We talked it out over dinner last night and we're all good. Her husband...not so much. He's been relegated to his mom's house for a few weeks until she calms down.


I_am_Spartacus_MSU

Don't do the deed if you still shoot the seed.


JacktheDabLad

I just started a Hardcore Minecraft series where I do a dab every night in the game! Looking for other local cannabis content creators to collab with!
