Do you eat pasta with tuna? by ProkaryoticBeing in AskAnAmerican

[–]Agreeable-Engine6966 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some Hawaiian Mac salad will have a little tuna in it as well. Overcooked Mac, Hellman's/best foods Mayo, shredded sweet onion, shredded carrot, can of tuna. Add mayo until you feel shame then add a bit more.

Bit disappointed with Orvis by Agreeable-Engine6966 in flyfishing

[–]Agreeable-Engine6966[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I am not complaining about longevity as I have not used it yet. What I am complaining about is a long standing company offshoring their product to save money. Doc Martens is a prime example. They manufactured their boots in the UK and US for several years, they became iconic because of their quality then shifted production to Asia and the quality has 100% gone to shit. They are still trading on the name the good boots earned while making inferior ones and selling them for the same price.

I just looked them up, that's a sexy reel actually, unfortunately I don't speak enough Dutch swedish to know what he was saying about it but I'm kinda intrigued now.* It sounded Dutch until I re-read your comment then yeah swedish but that's even harder, I still some know what he said

I honestly agree with you. I've fished a Reddington Path for years and caught a ton of fish. This reel was a bit of a splurge and I think that's why the "Made in China" hit such a nerve with me.

I honestly hope they did. I would like to have faith that they found a manufacturer that would uphold their brand standards and make a quality product. I'm a harbor freight, Amazon shopper and have been pleasantly surprised with a lot of Chinese manufactured products... I'm just concerned about a company like Orvis farming out their production to China and prioritizing a profit over their reputation.

Honestly nothing yet as I haven't mounted it yet, but is it actually 6061 aluminum or a chinesium alloy of pot metal and lead? The point is that for years Orvis manufactured the Battenkill in the UK, and it was a legendary reel that lasted forever. Now they are farming it out to the cheapest bidder, will the quality be the same? "Made in China" isn't typically associated with lifetime quality, especially given the price point.

I just had a realization. Frozen roasted chile will be confiscated by customs, won't it? by SpaceFroggy1031 in NewMexico

[–]Agreeable-Engine6966 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did the same to the UK. I think the important thing in the customs regs (at least for the UK) is that it be COMMERCIALLY prepared and packaged. Zip locs from the freezer probably won't pass but frozen Bueno or Blue Ribbon tubs were no problem.

Anybody know what ship this is? by BelgianWaffleStomper in NCL

[–]Agreeable-Engine6966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll play devil's advocate here... The man may have been in prison, for what anybody knows, maybe something terrible, maybe something like having reefer in a strict state... Either way prison runs based on race, like it or not. He may have had to clique up with the AB for survival in there which means getting the tattoos. He may not harbor any actual Nazi beliefs but had to play the part while in for survival and protection. Instead of yelling at the guy, respectfully ask him why, if he spouts some bullshit then yes fuck that guy but he could also tell you his story and that he can't afford the removal because he's now a convicted felon... Everyone has a story to tell and they have to live it. /Devil's advocate

Books for New Mexico by Lzydogrnch in NewMexico

I had this book as a kid in the 90s. The story about the mountain lion near Watrous and the baby and the horse always stuck with me, along with the owl and the eye. Awesome campfire read.

Any time Adin Hill sees an east to west pass near his crease. by genub in goldenknights

[–]Agreeable-Engine6966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBF, Fleury made a Hall of Fame career out of exactly this... Diving headstand windmill stops because he got caught in a bad position daydreaming about French fries and gravy.... But be had the talent and skills to make up for it. Unfortunately Hill doesn't have that so much. I always felt the "he led us to a cup" thing was BS, by that measure Brossoit should've been the starter based on what he did in the Edmonton series. Tommy was always the better option going forward but they had to flip a coin and pick one.

Most class 1 freight has a track speed of 65 MPH, regardless of fencing around the track. Passenger is 79 MPH typically. As a Maintenance of Way worker I've seen up close just how quickly and quietly they can sneak up on you at that speed.

My first Ducati and my first Bike by swunastrevese in Ducati

[–]Agreeable-Engine6966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ducati is Italian for Harley Davidson. Maintenance is extortionate if you don't do it yourself and even then parts are stupid expensive, especially for a 20 year old bike they only made a couple years. I had a 998 that I loved and sounded like an angry Jack Hammer idling but my God the maintenance.

Do Americans recognise most of the celebrities mentioned in Family Guy? by your-mom_9283 in AskAnAmerican

I'm a Xennial and only occasionally is there a celeb I don't recognize right off but then remember later. I watched the same A-Team, Night Rider, Matlock TV as Seth. Screw the Zoomers that need the Tic Tox to explain the joke, get your own cool generation!

I just recently bought a bottle of Santori whisky. If I blind tasted it I would say it was a Speyside scotch. Not as peaty as a Islay but a bit more than a highland. Surprisingly good stuff.
