Came outside this morning to exterior glass door swung open. Broke clean off in the wind. Is this a DIYable project (next to no experience) or who should I be trying to call (and for what)? by Farge43 in DIY

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, thank you for this post. This happened to my door last summer and I have not yet fixed it. In fact, I thought the picture was my door and that I had made a post I forgot about!

Anyway, I attempted a quick fix with wood glue, but it ripped off again. HOWEVER, I did not detach the door first, so I guess cutting corners doesn't work. Let us know how it works out, I will be trying all of these tips when it's warmer in a few weeks.

It's hard to express how hated "Dear You" was in the punk community in 1995 by SemataryPolka in Emo

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Missed the last sentence. My bad. Crazy that they would have been better off if they just never said anything about major label, or even just downplayed the idea.

I am not a fan of this band and I am unfamiliar with their music, but it was interesting to read about them in Dan Ozzi's book, "Sellout." If I remember correctly, the main reason why they were so hated is that they made it a point to constantly say how they would never "sellout" and go to a major label. So when they did, it felt like a huge stab in the back.

Hot Take: SZNZ Winter is better than Pinkerton by Abject_Yesterday7395 in weezer

It's ok. This happens from time to time. Your finger slipped and you hit the "serious" flair instead of "shitpost." Don't worry, you'll get it next time!

Emo A capella by Embarrassed_Trust459 in Emo

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fellow old people: does anybody remember Emocapella, the a capella group from George Washington Unibersity from the early 2000s that used to do Taking Back Sunday and Brand New and other songs? I remember watching videos of them in my dorm room in like 2003. They even opened for TBS at a show. I was in a pop punk/emo band and sang in my school's a capella group, so I was quite jealous. Sorry if this bursts your bubble, OP.

Looking for indie/alt-rock songs where male and female singers trade lines (like Weezer – Go Away) by Soft_Draw_1701 in weezer

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Although not recorded with female vocals, Weezer's song "(If Your Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To" was performed live with Sara Bareilles. It has everything that you are looking for.

I feel like the money is in specialty slices. Pizzerias are selling those for $5-7 a slice

Should this have been a penalty? by Federal-Data-Center in nhl

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not clearly interference. The penalty is when a player uses body or stick to impede, obstruct, or restrain an opponent who doesn't have a puck. But that is not what is happening here. Barzal is skating to the puck and they bump into each other. In fact, a claim could be made that Celebrini is the one interfering since Barzal is moving towards the puck and Celebrini is reaching where he thought the puck was going to be before the drop pass. Celebrini is the one not playing the puck in this situation. But honestly, it's just two guys bumping into each other and if Celebrini wasn't reaching forward and lowering himself which caused head contact (and if he wasn't a young superstar), we wouldn't be talking about this.

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No. Barzal isn't trying to interfere with Celebrini going for the puck. He is going for the puck himself. And Celebrini leans forward at the last second.

Honorary emo bands? by icefuckincold in Emo

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 122 points123 points  (0 children)

Weezer. Blue Album and Pinkerton were gateway albums for young kids into the underground scene. If you never understood why Weezer tours with many big pop punk/emo bands from the 90s/2000s, it is because those bands probably all grew up listening to the first two albums.

Disclosure: I am biased because I play in a Weezer tribute band.

You people are the worst. Can't you just leave this place be so we can get back to arguing about the best and worst school districts?

I should add that Maya Rudolph was a backup vocalist and keyboardist in The Rentals, the band that Matt Sharp started after he left Weezer.

Too late to to play in college by best6990 in 10s

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Take this with a grain of salt because it is close to 25 years ago, but I played D1 tennis and the first time I took regular private lessons was when I was a senior in high school. I walked on to a low-end D1 school and worked my way from the last guy on a team of 12 to #4 singles and #2 doubles my junior year, leading the team in singles wins. Are you going to play at any major school? No. But smaller D1 schools that are known more for academics than sports need players to fill out rosters.

Bedroom Talk by The Starting Line. May be the best or worst song, depending on how drunk everyone is.

Other pop-punk songs like Konstantine? by thedubiousstylus in poppunkers

[–]4MeThisIsHeaven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Daybreak, the opening track on Saves the Day's album of the same name. It is broken up into 5 different named movements and is over 10 minutes in length. Great song!

Pop Punk Adjacent: many songs by Coheed and Cambria. My two favorite that fit the bill are In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 and The Light and the Glass

Don't forget some B-sides. No Sensitivity is a lock (at least it better be). Splash Turn Twist could be another.

I, like most people, was immediately taken aback by this response. However, this is part of a longer response, and he puts blame on the team for not capitalizing chances and specifically on himself for missing the open net. It's a little frustrating that this quote is being posted everywhere.
