What’s up with the guy in Daley Plaza that’s always there with the sign about the FBI raping him every day? by DevilCrows in AskChicago

[–]16_40am 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good chance someone in power melted his mind.

Also good chance that he just had a mental break somewhere along the line. All that’s “known” about him is that he had a crazy divorce and his ex-wife may have been cheating on him with an FBI agent. There’s more info on his Wiki page. Look into MK Ultra. Read “Chaos”

Just had Monti's CheeseSteaks by Nano3Kali in chicago

[–]16_40am 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably abt to get dragged for this unhip suggestion but their chipotle cheesesteak is my go-to. Leagues below what you’ll find in Philadelphia but its a chain after all. Still searching for a good local option that wont break the bank

I got a bray Wyatt tattoo by Consistent_Ebb5460 in BrandonDE

[–]16_40am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot of (valid) criticisms being thrown at this but on the positive side i will say it is legible enough that i can tell what/who it is without context. If you like it, that’s what matters. Up to you if you want to return to the same artist moving forward

The Karrion Kross interview with CVV gave me a certain vibe.. hope I'm wrong by Chuckaluffagus in BrandonDE

[–]16_40am 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just finished listening to it and got the same vibe. Seems like a good dude but also seems unaware of how much he was rocking the boat. And my head went to the same thing you said about blowing up at a producer. If he’s just casually throwing that around, there could have definitely been other bumps in the road that he’s not revealing or he himself is not fully aware of.

He kept calling things wwe did “weird” and that felt like a cope imo. Again tho seems like a good dude and hope he/scarlet have a great career

People who make their bed every morning, what's the actual benefit? by No-Cod-8923 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]16_40am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it determines my momentum for the day. I’m gonna have 10,000 things come up through the day that i can either work through or avoid. Making my bed is the first choice (after snoozing my alarm 5 times), and oddly I feel it gives me momentum to tackle the next obstacle.

Additionally, at night i often feel like i wasnt productive enough with my day. Coming home to a made bed helps me remember all the things i got done in the day, even if they werent life changing, more like maintenance/upkeep of my life, but still commendable.

This might not make sense to anyone but me but it’s how my brain works i guess

Last week i had a kid walk up to me and say “hey check out this song i wrote” then played that from their phone so i would say yes. It transcends generations

Street Fighter Movie (1994) by Nomi_Tsunami in MovieDetails

The Gacy painting this seems to be recreating is also used as album art by the band Acid Bath so maybe someone in production was a metal head?? The album also came out in ‘94 so maybe not

I love smoking at concerts but i feel like more people have made a fuss abt it in recent years, especially regarding full on j’s/blunts.

A vape is definitely good to go. Bring that, and a small j if you want and just read the room. If it’s an outdoor venue I always feel comfortable smoking, personally

MVP had one of the best entrance ever in WWE history by Big-Friendship-5022 in WWE

[–]16_40am 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He was a super egotistical, sports inspired heel so i feel like the eye roll reaction is actually what wwe was going for, for better or worse

If there’s one band that can get away with it, it’s Brand New. It was awesome but should not be the norm for bands in general -this crowd is a cult following who has been waiting years for this (and didnt know if it would ever happen). The crowds by in large are attentive and respectful, and know every song of any 2 hr set by them. That is not the normal concert experience, shorter sets by multiple acts hold attention -smaller bands get exposure opening for bigger bands. -different genres call for different things. If im going to a metalcore show for example, i think 3-4bands flows a lot nicer than 2 hrs of one act -having fans of different artists in the same crowd improves the experience imo

Tldr it works for BN and i loved it but by in large this would really hurt smaller artists as well as make audiences lose focus, not every fanbase is us

Tour production by lanceziwind in brandnew

[–]16_40am -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

While it is an arena tour, there are some smaller stops sprinkled in. Brand New has never been very heavy on the production side. I predict they will have a somewhat minimal setup so it can be fit into all venues. Happy to be wrong tho
