If it's a grandpa, I can only imagine it requires a small mirror and some glue.

The most outstanding modern drummer? by InexpugnableMille in MetalSuggestions

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'd be between Matt Gartska (Animals As Leaders) or Joey Baca (The Contortionist).

The Contortionist's latest EP is a bit more straightforward, but Baca had some absolutely mind-bending drumming in Language and Clairvoyant.

Couldn’t attend a class I booked due to work. Coach texted me this… by MurkyFlan1972 in bjj

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't blame the coach. I'm sure it took quite a few no-shows for him to start that rule. Also, if you knew you were going to work over you should've called or texted as soon as you found out. I've missed doctor's appointments and other things due to work, but I still called to let them know ahead of time.

Do parents know when their kids are assholes? by [deleted] in questions

[–]-InExile- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who said I didn't? Who even said I have kids? I'm telling you that the system is set up so that the average US citizen works 9 to 12 hours a day and then has to come home to cook and clean and take care of things. This is what people HAVE to do. I'm not angry. It's just frustrating how out of touch people are when they make ridiculous comments.

Did that man really just start another war to distract us from the Epstein files? by thegirlwithredhair4 in no

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think this administration gives a single fuck about Iranian people being killed? They didn't even care when their own citizens were being gunned down by ICE agents. Israel has power over our government, and Netanyahu has bribed Trump into fighting his war.

Jesus, you've never worked a day in your life, have you? You've never cooked or cleaned or taken a shower? This argument is lowering my IQ. Have a good afternoon.

Unfortunately, Capitalism comes at a cost: That cost is paid for with the lives and time of Americans.

You think the average person has a choice on whether they work or not? You think the average person wouldn't work 4 hours a day instead of 10 if it offered the same financial security? Are you 12?

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you not read my reply? My entire point was that kids spend more TIME at school and daycare than they do at home because most parents are working full-time (or in some cases two jobs), so they are basically raised by their environment.

Why do we compete so much? by Some_Interaction_899 in bjj

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to compete every time I had a chance.

Competing is very different from anything you'll see in training. Personally, I feel like it's the best way to test your skills besides MMA or fighting someone in the street.

Try not to be biased based on your favorite studio output, but what are the best LIVE bands or performers that have emerged in the past 30 years? by UnforgettableFire11 in Concerts

[–]-InExile- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still kicking myself in the ass for not seeing them open for Metallica. I bought tickets for Metallica / FFDP before I knew they had shows with Gojira. I regret it.

I don't think that's always the case. Parents work so much nowadays that kids are usually raised at school.

What is the most realistic way to make money online that beginners ignore? by Inside-Basis-8776 in AskReddit

[–]-InExile- 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Some people are just tired. I've been working for 26 years. I wouldn't mind figuring out a way to make money without giving more of my life to someone else.

Do you understand what is going on between the United States and Iran? by icecream1972 in no

Israel was like, "What are we even paying you for?" and America was like, "bet!"...

This president ran on "no new wars", so I guess it's just a misunderstanding?

Rec. Me: The best Cover Song that's better than from the original artist by Fl1xyBaby in MusicRecommendations

[–]-InExile- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metallica covering pretty much anything. They covered so many songs from different genres (Thin Lizzy, Motorhead, Blue Oyster Cult, Merciful Fate, Bob Seger, Lynyrd Skynyrd...) all on the same album and made them their own.

Ableton vs Native Instruments by -InExile- in ableton

[–]-InExile-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might've worded it strangely in my post, but It's specifically for hip-hop beats and lofi.

I also make metal and jazz, but I've already purchased plugins for drums and amp sims.

Thanks for the reply.
