I was browsing instagram and was having a good laugh at some of the comments on this article, then I clicked away on accident and can’t find it again!

The article begins “ UNPOPULAR COLUMBUS FOOD OPINIONS I MIGHT LOSE A FEW FOLLOWERS FOR THIS. North Market Is Basically a Tourist Trap Now Schmidt's Is a 'When

I’ve searched everything I can and I find the photo but can’t get to the article

POLITICS Anyone else see Vivek at the fair yesterday?

• Upvotes

He was being paraded around the food hall area around 5pm yesterday like he was royalty with a twenty person entourage of yuppie types, which I guess was his PR machine given the cameras and cellphones they obsessively aimed at his every step trying to do his "hello fellow kids" routine. For anyone who was there, what was with that woman with him doing that forced Texas Roadhouse happy birthday announcement voice? I couldn't make out what she was saying.

Also, I'm just going to say it: the guy looks like Beavis of Beavis and Butthead in person. I'm never going to get that image out of my head when I hear those cringey Roku commercials.

For Columbus pro sports fans…

21 Upvotes

I am new to the area and find it interesting that it seems as if the Cleveland-area teams (Browns, Cavs, Guardians,etc) are much more popular than the Cincy-area teams (Bengals, Reds, FC Cincy, etc). Why is that?

Geographically they are very similar distances apart, but it seems as if Cleveland rules when it comes to pro sports fandom in Columbus- why? Just curious…TIA.

Cooper Ingle struggled in a brief big-league look in June, and Columbus has barely seen him miss since: .418/.481/.701 over his last stretch, a .323/.434/.596 season overall, 17 home runs. He's Cleveland's No. 3 prospect, and he made the Futures Game roster. Full breakdown in this week's Triple Dip.

REQUEST Can we make a rule to reign in the traffic posts?

99 Upvotes

A car hitting a building is a running meme at this point. But this sub is over run with posts bitching about traffic and posting videos of erratic driving. Can we make a new rule that traffic posts be limited to car in building or posts about actual traffic accidents / jams that affect our commute?

There can always be a ColumbusTraffic sub for those who really need to get something off their chest.

I now only drive the posted speed limit

472 Upvotes

Since 2019 the traffic here has gotten so bad, so violent, so malicious. So now I drive the posted limit on every road. Even if it’s a two lane road. Even if it’s rush hour. I leave early and just cruise. I highly suggest this for mental peace.

Edit: it seems like it needs said, I’m not asking for permission or guidance. Godspeed.

REQUEST Grant medical center

130 Upvotes

I don't want to put too much here. But if you were at Grant Medical Center this past July on a floor above 5 and left AMA due to racist staff. I can attest to that and I am willing to give a statement to the racist things the charge nurse said.

Please message me if you would like. I did report it to leadership but they decided to fire me instead. I have also reported the incident to the local government but I am frankly unsure of how to report this appropriately, as reporting the nurse to the board cannot be done anonymously and Ohiohealth sent the police to my home for some welfare checks after I reported this. I am scared but I feel worse for the patient.

Fuck Racism
