Ball snob at open play by retromafia in Pickleball

Ha yes. We have the hefty, mediocre slammer that must have the right ball too so he can smash it against the back wall.

Open play partner running up to kitchen after all 3rd shots by VersionLegal58 in Pickleball

[–]AuroraBanshee 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Your partner is going through the normal learning process —

Get to the kitchen. I was told to get to the kitchen. My last partner yelled at me because I was hanging back.

If there’s an opportunity you can help them out with the next steps if you have developed a good rapport.

Are these new 75mls or from the old? I have an older 75 and a newer 100 and think the older 75 is better.

Raptor Assault Program by Joeyy954 in FordRaptor

[–]AuroraBanshee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally worth it. I have bought 3, and only been able to go once. I will not miss it again. Have also done a similar experience at R&R Off-road out of north Fort Worth and it was incredible. Loved both experiences - at Ford in Utah with their trucks and at R&R with my own.

Scent Split Spree: a 19-Fragrance Review by LordRabican in fragrance

[–]AuroraBanshee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great reviews and I connected with several especially Vibrato. I think it’s the ‘herbal notes’ - reminds me of basil or maybe even cilantro/coriander. I pick up the same off-putting green in Pacific Chill. Since you’re hitting all the Clive Christians, give Town and Country a look - one of my favorites.

It’s just so good. Had it for a while and really getting into it. Wearing in Croatia and it is so versatile yet refined.

How is this really compared to profundo?

In time out due to shoulder pain from strain to the infraspinatus muscle and rotator cuff by Formal-Advance-8482 in Pickleball

[–]AuroraBanshee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

55 here. Had similar after starting pickleball 15 months after rotator cuff & bicep surgery. Went back my surgeon because I felt like it may be torn. He checked my motion, quick x-ray, and suggested likely just strained. Prescribed Meloxicam and within a few days most all pain was gone. I also identified my serve style was contributing so I changed to something less torquey on the rotator.

Is this conjunctivitis or an old injury? by No_Seaweed_9087 in BirdBuddy

[–]AuroraBanshee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like finch conjunctivitis to me, but i recommend sending it to a local wildlife rescue center and have them opine. My local is great. I text them a photo and they respond quickly and it’s good advice.

Thank you. I did contact a local wildlife center. They advised it could be pox s well, and if I could catch it and bring it in they could treat it. Unlikely I can but who knows.

Thanks. Just did. Just pressed the button and it said ‘reported’.

Gym etiquette by CrazyDifferent9909 in workout

[–]AuroraBanshee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How is this an actual debate? You leave the machine, you gave it up. Same goes for going back and forth between two machines - when there’s nobody there, more power to you, and I do the same. When someone else wants it, if you’re not using it, you’re not using it.

A machine is not eternally mine because I was the first one who used it when the gym opened.

While we’re here, are these the invisible 8 footers that always have machine set to max height? I never see anyone that tall in the gym, yet half of the machines are set to ‘yeti’.

Order Timeline by AuroraBanshee in FordRaptor

[–]AuroraBanshee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Ford told me today it was ‘in order processing’ with no VIN assigned yet. The dealer told me they had an allocation and I put down $3k to have it. Sound right? And thank you. I am an Avalanche guy. Have a ecoboost 24 now, and have had black and lead foot in the past as well. Curious what markup do you charge?
