Howdy, pardners! Thunder basketball season is back, and the city has been rejoicing. For fans of isolation play, wasted possessions, and minimal ball movement, there are few better teams to follow...
Howdy, pardners! Is fall finally here? I don’t want to ask that question too seriously, cuz I thought when I got off the plane from Chicago last week and it was coat weather here that autumn...
Oklahoma is fine. That’s why we wear all those cutesy t-shirts that constantly remind us that it’s the greatest place on earth. But occasionally, through work or pleasure, outside forces...
For as much as people complain that there’s never anything to do here, OKC has a pretty damn active live music scene. Or so I hear, because I got old and stopped going to shows all the time. In...
Before we get to this week’s tweets, we’d like to offer our deepest thoughts, condolences and sympathies to the people of Las Vegas, and everyone victimized in last night’s...
Dear Mr. Anthony, Welcome to Oklahoma City! I know you’re an east coast kinda guy, born in Brooklyn and raised in Baltimore. What we lack in urban density, public transit, diversity, and...
Howdy, pardners! What a hot mess Twitter was this weekend. Between Sam Presti yet again using his Jedi mind tricks to pull in an NBA star, to everyone’s timelines melting down all day Sunday...
Every so often, we like to dig into the sad, lonely world of Craigslist ‘Missed Connections.’ It’s harrowing to dig into them, and once you go so deep, you become convinced that you...
Howdy, pardners! Here’s hoping your weekend was full of fun and sun and outdoors and state fairs and football and all those things. I ended up catching whatever bug that’s been going...
Snakes, like a lot of animals, are really misunderstood. We treat them like monsters, but for the most part they get rid of actual pests that we don’t want around, like rats and bugs and stuff...
Howdy, pardners! Here’s hoping you had a great weekend. Between the weather finally starting to be tolerable outside, and big wins for college football, everybody seemed to be having a pretty...
If there’s one constant over the years here at TLO, it’s our microscopic focus on local news. If there’s a new anchor coming to town or a beloved old stand-by leaving OKC for...
Sure, we spend a lot of time on TLO talking about restaurants. We also sometimes remind you of the copious amounts of booze it takes to cope with all the harrowing stories we have to comb through to...
Howdy, pardners! I guess the good news from the weekend was that Mayweather/McGregor turned out to actually be exciting. A lot of people, myself included, thought it was going to be pretty dull...
For years, there was nothing I wanted to see more in Oklahoma City than the re-opening of the Tower Theater. It’s got such an interesting history, from a classic movie house, to a...
Howdy, pardners! I’m sure all you’ve been hearing about at work this morning is eclipse this, eclipse that. Nobody is getting any work done because they’re so excited for afternoon...
Everybody is making a huge deal about the dumb ol’ eclipse this afternoon. They act like they’ve never been outside at night before! At 1:05 pm, the moon will cross in front of the sun...
It’s utterly baffling that we’re living in the post-post-post-modern future of 2017 and somehow, Nazis are dominating our national conversation. On Friday, a plague of khaki-clad white...
Howdy, pardners! Hopefully, most of you got to enjoy that lazy rainy Saturday. It’s hard to be productive when it’s pouring buckets all day. That’s why I just drank beer, played...
I always remember being in the backseat of my parents car as a child driving past downtown. There was no movie theater, and Spaghetti Warehouse was about the only restaurant. Really, there...
It’s pretty easy to get a crowd of Okies to agree that Texas is a garbage state. Sure, we may not be the hottest spot in the nation either, but our pride won’t allow us to enjoy ourselves...
Howdy, pardners! It’s time to waste five minutes of productive office hours and read a bunch of social media nonsense from the last week. Hopefully, the wild storms that I heard about...
There’s been a generation gap in our country going back at least as far the 1960’s, if not longer. The crusty old guard doesn’t understand the problems of the youth, and they both...
Howdy, pardners! Somehow, it seems Oklahoma City survived its first Gathering of the Juggalos without much incident. It looks like a few people were hospitalized, but it wasn’t nearly as bad as...
As a new service to our angry troll readers, we’ve decided to review our city’s public public parks, buses, gardens, libraries, convention center hotels, and all the other great things...
