Oklahoma Factory Shoppes - I40 & Council

[John]

Oh, brother. You're just like my 12 year old cousin.

heh

But you don't know my 12 year old cousin, do you? I DO!

[jbrown84]

Core to shore, mranderson.

From downtown central business district, south to the river

I believe there is a whole thread of discussion in this forum

He knows.

[Lauri101]

He knows.

But, we've been told many times we don't know what he knows!

Oh, almost forgot...I'm sure that's another area of expertise

Funny how some people THINK they can read the mind of someone they have never seen. I hate to break it to the kid, however, I DO NOT know the answer to my question.

Now you do - I gave it to you above - and you're welcome!

[jbrown84]

It's not that hard to figure out when about a centimeter above are the words "core to shore", and it is the subject of his post.

My wife will be ecstatic about this! We go down to San Antonio about once a year or so and always have to stop at the San Marcos outlet centers. She loves them and says she always finds great deals. I say she spends too much money though.

The good thing is maybe people from out of town or even better out of state will now come into OKC and spend "too much money" here too for once!

Now when the families come into town the girls can go to the outlet center while the guys go to the Hornets/Sonics game and they can all meet up for dinner and a movie in Bricktown before spending the night at the Skirvin.

[okclee]

This is great news for Okc. People do drive from miles around just to shop at these type of places.

The San Marcos just continues to grow and grow, I could see Okc needing to add more outlets nearby, maybe across from I-40, eventually.

[Cid]

So is the tenant list posted previously in this thread an official list?

[brianinok]

Wow, this is exciting. And the information on their website sure makes it look like it is a done deal. It looks like this company does quality developments. The rendoring on their website looks good.

[Nixon7]

how come our newspaper hasn't picked up on this?

[John]

Still?

Seriously?

[mranderson]

Still?

Seriously?

I had not seen her post explaining it. I suggest not using initials like the ones that propted the question. There are people who have never heard them.

Although not initials, here is an example. "There is a one hundred dollar bill by the getner. You can have it." How many of you know what a "getner" is?

[jbrown84]

And yet within seconds of posting that question you went to another thread and used the abbreviation "ABQ".

[Karried]

getner

From Merriam-Webster:
getner

No entries found that match getner.


Were we supposed to use the Red Neck Dictionary?

Sounds like 'Get er done' - Larry the Cable Guy... some of my favorites...

"IGNERT - adjective. Not smart. See "Auburn Alumni."
Usage: "Them N-C-TWO-A boys sure are ignert!"

"FARN - adjective. Not local.
Usage: "I cudnt unnerstand a wurd he sed ... must be from some farn country."

[SpectralMourning]

Once again another thread is trashed. :-(

[y_h]

Once again another thread is trashed. :-(

Not trashed . . . only "slightly blemished," which is quite appropriate given it's a thread about an outlet mall.

If the list of stores posted earlier is accurate it looks like you're in for one heck of a nice outlet mall. We have a recently opened outlet mall about 10 minutes from my office. It's got well over a million square feet and is operated by the Mills Corporation. To say it's been a big disappointment is an understatement. A number of the big name brands have already shut down and most of the ones who have remained aren't even top-tier outlets. Hopefully the one in OKC will experience a bit more success than what I'm seeing in my own backyard.

One more word to the wise - just because a retailer puts an outlet in your area doesn't mean that the "main line" store will follow. In a number of cases the outlet stores aren't even owned by the brand they're representing. Nonetheless, it will be good to have better access to those retailers and their products than having to travel elsewhere.

Google says - an amplifier interface used to hook a telephone line to audio input

So what? Are we going to get into a spitting contest over obscure words now?
[/offtopic]

Personally, I am looking forward to the influx of these businesses - I've missed the Stroud Outlets way too long!

[kmf563]

if you watch gary england, you'll hear him use that horrible word a million times. usually has to do with getting val on the getner while he watches the tornadic activity. drives me insane. i suppose that's why they created a drinking game to go along with him, to make it more tolerable.

on a note of the shopping, when is this supposed to happen? it's about time!

[jbrown84]

Yikes, what happened there, y_h? Overbuilt retail?

[Karried]

I'm always so confused around here.

What does a getner have to do with C2S?

Getner isn't even an abbreviation, possibly not even a word.

[mranderson]

In a way, you have proven my point. Obviously, you do not know what a Getner is.

No. I frequently ask people not to use abreviations or letter codes such as C2S because a lot of people have no idea what they mean. I gave you an example of what most people would not know to prove a point.

[Karried]

From Merriam-Webster:

Neither does Merriam-Webster.

But I do know what C2S means as it pertains to our discussion.

Getner is like a phone jack... why does it matter?

And what does it have to do with Anything?

[SpectralMourning]

Exactly, Karried. Besides, I never cared what a getner was. How does that pertain to the discussion anyway, Anderson? How is arguing over stupid words constructive in any way, especially when argued in an outlet mall development thread?
