It's not that bad actually. I don't know where you're coming from, but if it's a larger city you're probably going to find it much safer here than where you were.

I work at MSU and a lot of my friends work with international students (or are international themselves.) Check out the Morris Center if you haven't already, they can help a lot and you'll be in good company. Some cool people there. https://map.missouristate.edu/location.aspx?id=30

I don't think I've ever heard Hong Kong Inn and 'the best' in the same sentence before unless it's 'Hong Kong Inn is the best place to find hillbillies stuck in a drive thru line after work'. Seriously, thought this guy was a foodie of some sort and he's recommending the mexican villa of cheap Chinese?

I've gotten to where I will either speed up or slow down to avoid packs. If someone's tailgating me and I have the left lane open sometimes I'll swing into the passing lane and tap the brakes to send them by on the right. People are idiots, you have to move them around sometimes like you're moving cattle.

I got to pay the municipality of Billings a solid $200 back in the nineties after being caught doing 53 in a 45 trying to get my girlfriend to her asthma medicine during a bad attack. She was quite literally turning blue in the lips from lack of oxygen in the car next to me while he was harassing me about making up stories. I honestly stopped hoping he could help us get to some help or a fire station or EMT. Nope, just nailed me with tickets. I got hassled by the prosecutor for pleading guilty to no license. I'd been given a ticket for not having my license with me. Apparently that's not illegal. My thought was, shouldn't the cop have known that? I'm just some 18 year old kid.

I second this. YouTube has some great lessons. I'd also add that I've made a lot of progress with Fenderplay online lessons. They have a free week trial and I think it was 40 dollars for a year after that. The structure helped me. I'd love to find some in person lessons somewhere too.

It's weird that people can transition so seamlessly between complaining about a facebook page that makes fun of homeless people and mentally ill locals to thrice weekly posts making fun of a guy who obviously lives in his car.

Depends. I've had some that definitely were very chicken tasting. Wal Mart actually sells a frozen variety that I like with that most western of flavors, tikka masala. The vegetable samosas at that place are okay, but just okay. Nothing like what you'd find in a sit down restaurant, but on par with what you'd expect at a convenience store. More just convenience food. I like them but they definitely require a sauce on the side. Too much potato and not enough of anything else.

It's Hindi. There are a lot of Indian truck drivers on I-44 so the truck stops frequently have small Indian restaurants or food counters for travelers, (called Dhabas). There's a place in Joplin that has zero chicken samosas. Ever. There's just an empty bin and a nice lady who says 'I'm all out, would you like vegetarian?' Every single damn time. I'm starting to question the existence of the chicken ones at all.
