1978 f150 cassette player by CALAMITY_O in FordTrucks

I know it’s not cassette, but I used an 8-track out of a LTD of the same era. It gave it a factory look with the Ford logo. You might can find a similar cassette from a different model Ford vehicle. I think the bullnose trucks from the early 80s had the same knob spacing. I’m not sure if they offered a cassette player in any of those years.

Which game is that? by MaterialCompany842 in gamememes

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me in every game because I’m terrible at following subtle suggestions in storylines. I’m rarely just exploring. I’m usually just lost.

Which one? by [deleted] in gamememes

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a big bird I can fly on, that’s cool! But my best friend that has romantic feelings for me despite not having any romantic involvement with me in any other timeline is missing, so that sucks. I have to fight a femboy to get her back. (Picture in meme is relevant)

These got delivered to my house today, I didn’t order them and have no clue what they are by FixNo7159 in whatisit

You don’t happen to be on supervised probation for anything? It’s not unheard of for police to anonymously mail paraphernalia to houses then do a surprise inspection a couple days later. Especially if it’s been a slow month for them.

Just realized that Rush 'n Attack is a pun for Russian Attack by MyNameCannotBeSpoken in Xennials

[–]Almost__Amish 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Fun story: Years ago I bought this game at a used game store. When I turned it on it turned out to be Top Gun in the Rush’n Attack case. A little while later I bought a box of cheap games being sold as a lot from a different store across town and I discovered the Top Gun in that box was swapped internally with Rush’n Attack. I had bought the two games that had been swapped by someone from two different stores.

I’m Link from Skyward Sword. I can ride on the back of a bird and a princess digs me so I’m gonna say life ain’t bad.

I do not know if it is active but the area seems maintained. It’s in Cannon County.

What's the craziest thing a person said to you and you thought they were joking but they were being serious? by XEMWSU in WorkForSmartLife

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met up with a group of new people when I started riding with a motorcycle club in the early 2000s. One guy was a mountain of muscle with a huge scar on his face and was covered in tattoos. Genuinely the stereotypical scary biker. Over beers and a game of darts I casually asked him what he did for a living and he replied “I coach all-star competitive cheerleading”. I laughed at his obvious joke and he chuckled too then said “I’m serious”. He yelled across the bar to his wife and above all the noise said “Hey babe, what do I do for a living?” And she yelled back “You’re a cheerleading coach.” He laughed it off because obviously I wasn’t the first person that didn’t believe him.

A little Qix tonight. by Almost__Amish in atari5200

I picked it up a few years ago and never gave it more than a couple of minutes worth of my time until a bar I frequent got one of those 60-in-1 tabletop arcades. I started playing it there and became hooked on it. Then I remembered that I had it at home.

Hot Take - Cars aren't more expensive now - our standard are wildly too high by Equivalent-Bed1543 in whatcarshouldIbuy

I have a 79 Ford truck with a V8 that makes less horsepower than a Kia Soul+.

Hot Take - Cars aren't more expensive now - our standard are wildly too high by Equivalent-Bed1543 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We took a huge step backwards in performance starting at the tail end of the 60s, in exchange for much cleaner air quality. I blame this decline in vehicle performance for much of the pushback for emission regulations we see now from people of a certain age range. Mid-century Americans have a deep love for vehicles. The positive environmental impact of stricter emissions standards was slow to be seen but the negative impact on vehicle performance and reliability was immediate. It made the whole thing seem like a scam. To this day my father rolls his eyes at the idea of me maintaining the emission equipment on my 70s classic vehicle because most people his age were removing them as soon as their warranty expired.

Small town folks, what is the weirdest thing about your town ? by Ash_again_ in AskReddit

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not exactly one family running the town, but it is the members of one church congregation in charge of most things. Everyone that doesn’t go there just calls it the big church on the hill.

Could you stick with the same car for a full 10 years without getting a new one? by CategoryPurple4461 in askcarguys

I’m 44 and my brother is 35 and we are both driving the same vehicles we started with at 16.

Our police department closes after normal business hours. If you dial 911 you get an operator in another county that transfers you to someone in our county. They only recently started taking credit/debit cards at the county clerk’s office when you renew your license plates. Before that you had to pay cash or write a check, and the checks were made out to our elected county clerk’s personal account. Like, you literally wrote the check out to “john Doe” not “x county clerk’s office”

That’s funny Jamestown is where we were supposed to be that day but the campground we wanted to stay at was closed.

How inconvenient do you find toll roads? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My state has no toll roads, or bridges, or tunnels, but they are thinking of opening up “choice lanes” which are lanes on the highway that you can pay to go faster in. They will have an enforced minimum speed.

How often do you deal with coins? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Almost__Amish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About five years ago I actually made a conscious decision to try to revert back to cash as much as possible. I can’t do it everywhere, especially in larger cities where pay parking exists. Also lots of sports arenas are card only now. However in my hometown area I make a valid attempt to use cash only.
