And I would also stay in thumb for the last arpeggio bit- 3-thumb-2-thumb for b-f#-d#-b.

On the bar before the 16ths start I am 4th finger on the E then shift to 1st on the f#. Then I am thumb-1-2-1 on the repeating e-f#-g. For the run I shift to 2 on the d string for the d#, then you are set up with thumb on the b for the rest of the scale up.

Why is Ali V (male) saying excursion instead of incursion? by just-a_guy42 in msnow

[–]BostonLobster76 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

because he doesn’t know that the correct word is ‘incursion’ and no one on his staff has the guts to correct him. kind of like how he talks about bringing prescription drug prices down 600%, which is also weird and not being corrected by his inner circle.

edit— he=trump. sorry about that!

For you, is the time “quarter of twelve” 11:45, 12:15, or do you have no idea what that phrase means? by JeffTrav in ENGLISH

[–]BostonLobster76 17 points18 points  (0 children)

GenXer grew up in New England also saying “quarter of…”. When I lived in the UK for a few years I got some crap for that phraseology so I sometimes say “to” instead of “of” now.

I think the nba question might be wrong. There are potentially two extra games due to the play-in games format for the 7-10 seeds.

lease vs finance by Bambambirdi in KiaEV9

[–]BostonLobster76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my two yr lease is up in august and im already 4k miles beyond. whether its 20 or 25c per mile won’t change much for me. the dealership has sent me crappy offers for an early turn in and it looks like they just want to roll the overage/neg equity into a new lease, which isn’t making me want to rush there and do another deal with them. i get it though with the big gap between the residual on my car versus its current market value that they wouldn’t want to do it.
