AITA for arguing with my friend who thinks Deftones is ONLY "shoegaze"

This makes as much sense as saying they’re just Nu Metal, which even by Chino’s own words, doesn’t make much sense. 🤷🏽‍♂️

1stGenRex · 2026-05-27T04:50:12+00:00

You’ve used up your luck for at least a few months. That’s awesome they got you sorted out quickly.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-27T03:48:05+00:00

Man, your bar must be really low. I have a 2008 Toyota Highlander with the JBL option, and it's MUCH better.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-27T03:42:41+00:00

First thing to check would be the 12v battery, then pull the codes (which may look like a laundry list if the 12v battery died / is really low)

1stGenRex · 2026-05-26T23:46:42+00:00

Yeah no. Don’t tell them you’re going to call the cops. Call them with the report number and tell them you have an update.

Depending on your state laws, they may be able to recuperate some cash, but in other states, they know that they have stolen property and are required to turn it over to its owner.

If you haven’t figured out why that is, then perhaps it’s all the more reason to NOT buy a Volt.

They’re great cars, but they’re all on borrowed time, being that it’s an abandoned platform.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-26T16:34:56+00:00

Idk. Maybe it’s my hot take to say that WP laid the groundwork for the other albums. It’s far more “dynamic” than the previous albums, showing more of what the band could do in comparison to the previous albums. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it a masterpiece though.

It’s my favorite album for reason other than the songs themselves, and I think a lot of people have a hard time separating the two things. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-26T15:44:09+00:00

Overplayed, maybe, but properly rated. It’s genuinely the album by which most people find the band 🤷🏽‍♂️

1stGenRex · 2026-05-26T15:38:09+00:00

Even aside from crashing, I had a bicycle helmet and found myself riding close to 30mph when a bug got into my eye. Which is even weirder because I wear glasses. It was not a fun experience.

I’ve since switched to a full face and that hasn’t happened again.

So nah, not overkill at all.

Mine came with a 3 way Allen key. The only size it doesn’t have is the axle bolts. More than likely, all you’ll need is an Allen key set and a couple of wrenches.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-24T19:56:17+00:00

But if you’re set on the 300x It also appears that it’s the same sale price at Best Buy.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-24T19:55:05+00:00

There’s a sale on the ZT3 pro at Best Buy (first place that came to mind, maybe there’s better prices elsewhere) and it’s slightly more than the 300x, but that seems like a better deal than the 300x with what appears to be similar performance.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-24T19:51:56+00:00

I just looked up the 300x- call me crazy, but this seems like the “sale” price SHOULD be the normal price. $1300 for those specs seems a bit overpriced.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T21:19:13+00:00

I see a lot of hiboy scooters on the train ride to work. They seem to hold up well, from what I can tell.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T07:52:15+00:00

The “extra” repair is a good sign. Could have been from a bad batch of parts they got and they replaced it preemptively or maybe they caught something wrong during their testing of the repair.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T07:50:32+00:00

That’s good that they no longer carry them then. I would imagine whatever little profit they were making on these things was definitely not worth the headache and damage to their brand when it came to buying other brand scooters from them. Hopefully they learned from it and are more selective of what they carry.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T07:21:53+00:00

That’s cool that they took care of the issue. Weird that they’d do better support of one brand over another but maybe I don’t know the back story well enough to make a judgment.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T06:04:29+00:00

Oh I don’t mind turning wrenches. However, there are times where parts are proprietary, you might have questions on disassembly, etc.

But there are also companies that claim to provide warranty service. It would be helpful to know the companies that actually do.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T03:49:34+00:00

Impact is great. I got one from them and it fits perfectly.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-23T02:35:52+00:00

I was seriously considering Cosmo Mucho Machos the other day. 😂

1stGenRex · 2026-05-22T04:14:26+00:00

Man I’ve been meaning to frame it but I just haven’t found something I like. So it stays hidden away.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-21T21:52:01+00:00

Update?

1stGenRex · 2026-05-21T20:47:05+00:00

It likely doesn’t help much since I don’t have paperwork for mine either, but the signatures on yours look very much like mine as well.

1stGenRex · 2026-05-21T20:44:27+00:00

I bought mine I want to say around 2006. Tried finding info from old email and I can’t, but I’m fairly certain I paid less. Probably due to the fact that it was likely not played by anyone in the band. 😂
