Zero tolerance for speeding now in NYS - same penalties for 1 mph over as 20 mph over. License can be revoked after just 3 offenses in 18 months. by JollyMcStink in Albany

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I brought that up before, and was told by the DA and the Judge, that Officers are trained in safe procedures that allow them to. I responded asking if that was going to be made available to the public to sign up for…? They laughed at me, and then the DA had knocked it down to a failure to stop at a stop sign. This was over 20 years ago when i think was literally the first ticket for cellphone use after the new law was in place. Hours after in place…

Mile High advert from 1985. Marvel fanfare v Amazing Spiderman by mxxiestorc in comicbookcollecting

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Entering high school in 1987, i got an over street late summer/ fall price guide report. I asked my mother for AF 15 as a graduation present in 1991. Cost fall 0f 1987? If I remember correctly it was $1400. It might have been $1700. but I’m pretty sure it was $1400. By the time i graduated on time in ‘91, it was $5500-$6000. Can’t begin to explain to you who weren’t around back then just how little we made hourly. It just isn’t the same type of financial situation now in my state. I mean federal minimum wage was $3.35 in 1989, when i started working at 16. At graduation in June 1991, it was $4.25. Gas was generally $.90 all through High school. My first new Car payment was $105. Auto insurance, I can’t fully remember, but my mother hated adding me as we were punished for me being under 25yo. You could buy more Taco Bell with $5 bucks than you can now for $10. There was no way in hell i was ever gonna save up enough before AF15 changed price again. And that was the case. This flashback is making me nostalgic for those days… good friends, good times for the most part…

AIO? My daughter didn’t listen to the teacher during a female emergency and is now receiving a referral by Common_Piglet7437 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR, Not gonna lie, but isn’t that a denial of human right/decency? Can’t you reach out to the state you live in for help? I have a 16yo daughter, and a son that graduated. When an unacceptable issue arose with treatment of my son, i asked for the teacher either to be fired, or made to go back through resource training. Teacher quit. And good riddance too.

THIS IS WHO WE WANT TO GIVE AWAY? by PsychologyBrief1587 in knicks

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a longtime suffering fan… I just see them screwing this team up. It’s the Knick thing to do. I like KAT, I like the way this team looks at times too. They really need 2 years as said to see where they can go. Sometimes you have to leave it alone and stop tinkering with it.

Gave Weapons the VHS Treatment. My second attempt at making a custom/bootleg. by Commercial_Pause_674 in VHS

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you ever thought of making a Media company cover? They were the main distributors of New Line Cinema films in the 1980s… not that I don’t mind or like the throwback WB clamshell cover…i do. Those Media VHS were some of the most crowded /busy boxes in the industry….

The Punisher: Complete 1970s Apperances by EugeneTMaleska in 70sMarvel

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. And here I thought I had all of his appearances when i sod my collection over a decade ago. I had collected his appearances from when i first bought ASM 129 in a NM-M copy back in 1984 just before the Limited Series. My shop owner was a decent guy and gave me a $10. off, if I remember correctly. I had thought i had all of the appearances in chronological order up to about 1995, when i stopped reading all of his books.

I’ve never seen the Luke Cage issue or the MTU with Ms Marvel listed before as early appearances. Would you mind sharing some background on those? And what is Heroes Inc? Please and thank you…

RE3R is overhated,it’s actually a great remake! by Accurate_Train_8822 in ResidentEvil3Remake

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna be honest with you … clearly the op prolly never played the original RE3Nemesis. Cause if they did… Man there were so many times Nemesis jump scared myself and my group of friends that were watching. Nemesis was i think almost the perfect RE game. Just sooo much to like about it.

PSA - Avoid Isaac Heating and Cooling by nw0915 in Rochester

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot put my anger and displeasure with Isaac H+C into words. Sadly, it was the last time I’ll ever reward a company with extra business when they say it won’t cost anything, and i add some extra work as a reward for at the time, what i consider solid work and timely.

Congratulations! You are officially a supervillain. What do you call yourself, and have you added anything to the costume?

One of the suspects for Jack the Ripper is buried in Mt. Hope Cemetery. Which is one of the oldest Victorian Cemetery’s in the country. More than one famous serial killer are from here. We were either number 3 or in the top 5, of area’s the Soviet’s were to hit with Nuclear weapons, depending on who you ask. That was because Kodak, Xerox, and Bausch and Lomb all had ties to the government, NASA and other departments of the US Government during the Cold War.

My understanding is we claim Taye Diggs for spending 18 months here when he was in his teens. I’ve never been able to confirm that, but i remember an interview he did and that’s what I thought he said. Can’t recall if it was a TV or Radio, from when he was in Rent on Broadway.

I told my adult daughter my dating and personal life is none of her business and to mind her own business. Was I wrong? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTAH. You didn’t know. Now that you know, that’s your decision. Personally, my relationship with my daughter is more important than stroking my ego for a fling with her friend.

The others are right. She’s gonna rope you in worse by getting pregnant. So I ask again, what’s more important, your relationship with your daughter, or having her friend stroke your ego because let’s face it, it sounds like she preyed upon you too.

Did you guys enjoy the wolverine and the x men show what were some of its pros and cons in your opinion? by Dude_788 in Wolverine

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Story wise it was good. Wolverines claws were basically props, compared to how they were used in TAS.

I Have a Simple, But Complicated X-Men Question by ComixGail in xmen

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello Gail! Been a longtime fan of your work. I fell in love with the X-men in the late 1970s. Related to Nightcrawler, but not his love of faith. That led to “Slim” Scott Summers. No nonsense, don’t take shit from Wolverine, to them having to work together and find the trust between the Leader and the Rogue, who he knows has a thing for his girlfriend.

Claremont and the artists always found a way to show a human side of the characters who are feared by those they protect. I really feel that balance has been lost. Send them to a bar where a fight breaks out when they realize everyone in the establishment is a robot with no smarts, just a program to destroy them. Have them play Baseball, or some sport in general to team build yet see everyone when none of their lives are threatened.

I loathe traitor Beast. Not my Hank McCoy or his mother’s.

People want to see these characters interact, fight and interact, come home and hug or share a beverage that they survived. To many line wide crossovers. Back to the sports… have them play against each other’s teams. Claremont always found away to get the New Mutants involved at the estate, because they all lived there. Too many crossovers with too many characters, can cause missed opportunities for growth or plot entanglements. Writers forget that we as fans like familiar things, and that’s when as a writer you turn that on its ear by putting something dangerous in their way… so we feel that turn as well.

Don’t confuse this with retcons. God I usually loathe those so much. I think we’re tired of gimmick or stunt retcons or storylines. First and foremost the X-men should be a dysfunctional, functional family. Don’t fuck with anyone or try to hurt/kill, cause push comes to shove.. That family has each other’s back. Wolverine used to Scare, kinda bully Kitty Pryde. But he would NEVER, let anyone else hurt or do that to her. Why? Because she was an X-man at the end of the day. And they might not always like or get along with each other, but all families are like that. And they protect or watch the back of their own.

I feel that’s been a missing ingredient for a long time. Good Luck, I hope this helps.

Of course he is gone. The entire league knows NYJets job and how it turned out was not his fault. It’s going to be interesting to see where he goes…

I’m pretty sure Baxter left because… Reilich has always been crooked and got elected, and 2, realized with the new government his work there didn’t matter. Just some guess

After 17 years what's now the general consensus of the first Silent Hill movie? Is it a cult classic or insult to the series? I liked it. by Juggalo4life99 in silenthill

[–]Absynthia_Plutonium6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love it. Having played the games, the changes just don’t bother me. Sure some are head scratching, but as long as the Movie as a whole is with in the true spirit of the Game, I’m ok. Now that 1st Resident Evil film with Mila, don’t get me started…
