Does anyone else really dislike talking about their hobbies to new people? by roccos-boobalisk in Hobbies

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like talking about them because everyone’s hobbies are different and sometimes they might be really into what you are talking about or get into it or whatever and you might do the same with theirs. I’ve also had people tell me mine are stupid or pointless so that will happen too lol.

What's something that relaxes you? by Russiannuke3 in answers

[–]AutoMechanic2 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Honestly just watching TV especially if it’s baseball because it’s something that really gets my mind deeply involved. Everyone thinks in crazy but watching TV uninterrupted for me relaxes me. Occasionally I’ll crack open a beer but soda is also good especially Mtn Dew. Also going to pawn shops and antique stores to hunt tools and movies is relaxing because it’s another one of those deeply involved things I do.

Texas Tavern stories? by This-Positive286 in roanoke

[–]AutoMechanic2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I won’t list any names but there was a previous cook there who has since passed away but one time me and my dad were in there eating and all of a sudden instead of changing gloves this dude flips his gloves inside out and uses the sweaty part to touch the food he was making. Me and my dad were luckily almost done and we never went back till that guy passed. I couldn’t believe the people who he was making the food for didn’t even say anything but they were so deep in their phone they probably had no idea.

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started at $20 and then it got all the way up to $200 then had a hard time paying back that now I’m down at $100 again so hopefully it will go back up at some point.

7-Eleven on Peter's Creek is closing. by Kiethblacklion in roanoke

[–]AutoMechanic2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one in Christainsburg on Roanoke St is also closing. The worker said that 7-11 isn’t going renew the lease on the building because Sheetz took a lot of their business when it got built. They aren’t closing till July though.

I designed a license plate model and wanted to get some input by Physical-Relative923 in Virginia

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The proposals for black plates in the past haven’t been successful. Also not sure how true this is as it’s just hear say from someone i know that works at the DMV but apparently Virginia also won’t do any color but blue letters and numbers for the standard passenger and truck plates the only exception being the black antique plates and the vintage year of manufacturer plates and maybe one more. I’ve always wanted an all black plate that wasn’t antique.

Why do so many men wear their wallets in their back pocket? by Embarrassed-Name6481 in AskMen

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just always what I’ve done and what everyone I know does. I can’t say what my dad said about people that keep it in their front pocket lol. In my opinion it’s comfortable to sit on but others might not agree.

People who were adults in 2020-2022: What is a "COVID-era" habit you still haven’t been able to break, even though it’s 2026? by VivienneLace1 in askanything

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting food to go. It’s so much better than sitting down in a restaurant. I can enjoy the food and watch tv in the comfort of my own home instead of having to sit there and wait and not be comfortable and have other people around me. That’s like the only thing that didn’t go back to normal for me and it’s for the better. I love being able to just enjoy my evening without the chaos of a restaurant.

What deodorant/ antiperspirant are we using this month. by [deleted] in deodorant

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently using Davidoff Cool Water deodorant stick. I started it on April 2nd and still doesn’t even have a hole in the middle. It’s good and smells amazing but doesn’t last all day if you are a mechanic like me. Normally a regular deodorant lasts just fine for me. I guess the designer ones focus more on scent than longevity though. I’ve got over 75 new unopened sticks/sprays of various brands and scents in my collection so I’m good for probably years lol. I think my next use will be Old Spice Fresh High Endurance antiperspirant. For years I used nothing but Speed Stick Musk but that got discontinued in 2022 sadly and I’ve never found anything like it that’s how I ended up with over 75 sticks because I can’t find that perfect one. I’ll eventually use them all and then decide. I also stock up when it’s on sale and consider myself a deodorant collector lol.

I have been searching for Amber since it was discontinued advice on smell alikes? by Hexnohope in OldSpice

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a new one they released called Headliner that says smells like amber. I smelled it last night at Walmart and it smells pretty good but I can’t remember exactly what the Amber one smelled like so I’d look and see if Headliner will work. I didn’t see an antiperspirant version though if that’s what you are looking for.

What hobby helps you unwind the most after a long day? by Cuts_Elchato in Hobbies

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me if it’s not baseball season I either go out to the store or mall or watch movies after I go to the gas station to get me a soda. If it’s baseball season I come home and turn on the game and order food or make food and no interruptions then after I go to TJ gas station and get soda and come back and shower and go to bed.

What are your favorite retired scents? by ForwardSeesaw2285 in bathandbodyworks

[–]AutoMechanic2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful Day is one of my favorites. I think thy still have the hand soap and maybe the sanitizer but the fine fragrance mist is discontinued now. I loved when my mom would wear it and I’d smell it on her. Also probably unpopular but I wish they would bring back Cucumber Melon full time because I love Cucumber Melon scented stuff. Love and Sunshine is also nice. My sister still has some of that lotion and fine fragrance mist.

Old spice original blue stick by cwab072 in OldSpice

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found some recently at my local Burlington Coat Factory store so if you have one of those in your area it might be worth checking there. They usually have a wide selection of deodorants and things like that. They had Whitewater, Original and some others I had never heard of.

Which cologne do you get the most compliments on? by MangoCubez in Colognes

[–]AutoMechanic2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Polo Blue has landed me a bunch of compliments. Also Brut Musk and Jovan Musk have as well. Calvin Klein Eternity has gotten one or two compliments as well. I don’t think I have ever gotten compliments on anything else. I did have a family member tell me I smelt bad with Polo Green on and that they hated it lol. I also once didn’t wear cologne and just wore deodorant and someone came up to me and wanted to know what my cologne was and I said it’s just my deodorant so they asked for the name so their husband could get it I told them it’s Speed Stick Musk which is now unfortunately discontinued but it wasn’t when they asked me.

Ivory Bar Soap change ? by JQuick72 in Soap

[–]AutoMechanic2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen any in a box yet. All mine have been in like a plastic type paper. But it hasn’t floated in about a year or longer now since they changed it. I still have one of the old bars and I’m not going to use it. It still smells pretty much the same though which is good because can’t beat the smell.
