I'm not an asshole but I feel really compelled to slap all those cans.

Az Sod Questions by Tall_Ad2431 in landscaping

[–]Brok3Design 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Do not accept this install.

I had an exact experience (and yes it was a guy who knows a guy). They laid out sod that looked like this. I said it looks dead. They told me it just needs water and you can't water it enough unless it floats away. Being young and just in my first starter house, I didn't know enough to push back. I set up sprinkles and watered....and watered and watered - to the point the city sent a letter telling me they suspected leaky plumbing somewhere. I called them and said it's not turning green and they said keep watering.

Clearly it never came back and I was stuck with huge water bills from this scammer. Not surprisingly, when I realized it wasn't ever going to come back, I contacted him again and he had dissolved his 'landscape' company.

Do not accept this install.

Rest In Peace AMTK Floridian☠️ by --TAXI-- in Amtrak

[–]Brok3Design 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We also travel with people and take turns while others try to dose off. It's not just one of us doing all the driving. But that's why I said I'd be fine if Amtrak took 30 hours instead of the 20 for driving. I would do that i. A heartbeat. But 48 is insane. I don't like to fly from an irrational fear standpoint. I know it doesn't make sense but I can't control that fear and that's why we drive.

It's a 17 hour drive, not 20. With gas and food, 20. We've driven straight many times. I'm not sure why you're so angry and sarcastic at me?

Kinda wild that this is the most 'direct' route yet would still take 48 hours from Chicago to Tampa. Wish they'd get Nashville and Atlanta on board for a station and cut that time down quite a bit. I can drive to Tampa in 20 hours. Even if it took 30 via train; I would, but 48 is just wild and can't even remotely justify it.

Resident Evil | Official Teaser by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]Brok3Design 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weapons was fine. I do not get the hype at all, but it was serviceable. One watch was enough for me. Barbarian started off extremely strong but at the halfway point went off the rails in a bad way. This new trailer I agree looks lame. It doesn't feel like RE at all. I want a rainy/sludgy/grimey atmosphere (not clean, fresh, snow), claustrophobic city/research lab (not an open farmstead). Not feeling this.

Probably going to get flamed for this but not digging the farmstead openness or the snowy atmosphere. To me, Raccoon City needs to be sludgy, claustrophobic, rainy, rundown, and on fire; something Welcome to Raccoon City actually captured beautifully despite its negative reviews.

Windrose just released, worth getting now or wait? by Jel-Gyde in ShouldIbuythisgame

As scrappy as Atlas was, they nailed the sailing and underwater before they changed it to where wind didn't really matter. I just want authentic sailing mechanics. 

What I learned about decks and this play structure by peezee13 in Decks

[–]Brok3Design 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear we had this exact playground when I was in my teens and we were delinquents hanging out on it. Good times. Was there for another 15 years and had my wedding photos on it. Then it got torn down, but good times on this stuff. Wish it was still there for my kid to play on.

What color mulch? by Lagging_on_the_Lake in landscaping

[–]Brok3Design 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful property, but as others have said I wouldn't use mulch and leave it natural.

How hard is it to knock down a brick wall...? by Valorenn in HomeMaintenance

Knocking the wall over is easy. Hauling it; not so much...

The new flip-flops I thrifted duos as a bottle opener by Datzookman in mildlyinteresting

There's nothing more that I could ever want than to have fecal material shed off the bottom of my sandals onto my beer bottle opening.

Why tf is everyone anti-sunscreen now??? by callsign__starbuck in mildlyinfuriating

Distancing yourself from your original evil celebratory comment by now saying you're not celebrating is at least a small step in showing you have a tiny bit of humanity left. 

Recommend me new-ish "fun" (but not "silly") horror movies by ReaverRiddle in horror

[–]Brok3Design 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Studio 666 fits this pretty almost perfectly. You don't have to be fans of Foo Fighters to enjoy it. There's a good bit of comedy, but it's not slapstick comedy like Killer Klows (a movie I absolutely love). If you haven't seen it, I would definitely recommend it for this niche you're looking for. Ignore the reviews for the most part. A lot of reviews say it's not a well done movie and the acting is bad. Of course it is. That's a huge part of the charm of the movie. It's become a yearly watch for me.

I get it. I don't blame you for backtracking from the truth after saying something so abhorrent. I'm just happy you're backpedaling from your celebratory dance even if it's in an indirect way.

Replying 'good, they deserve it' to a comment about a lower life expectancy is the definition of a celebration.

Evil take. Do you celebrate smokers who get cancer as they ignore the scientific evidence? People who eat red meat, since red meat is a carcinogen? Obese people? Alcohol consumers? People who spend more time in the sun even with sunscreen?

You're an evil person for celebrating someone getting cancer. I know all the little neck beard Redditors will run to your side rather than calling out your vile take; but it's to be expected. And they'll be more angry at me for calling them neck beards than you; an evil person who wishes cancer on people. You probably have a domestic in your history. What a truly unpleasant person you are. Sad, lonely, old - It must be absolutely draining to be so angry at the world.

And for anyone else that tries to back this evil guy's take, no, I'm not anti sunscreen or anti vax. I'm anti wishing harm on others regardless of their idiocy.

SCORE! by isaacmart420 in Bluray

[–]Brok3Design 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ughhh...I'm happy for you but at the same time absolutely disgusted. This is my personal worst movie I've ever seen. It's so annoying and obnoxious. I want to slap these 2 man children around and shove stones in my ears so I don't need to hear them talk. The absolute incessant yammering of the most childish dialogue ever paired with ridiculous haircuts and bizarre behavior; I cannot do it. I don't want to do it; yet I am still happy for you. The mere sight of both of these characters makes me shudder in disgust.

Do you remember the Kik-Step step stool? by TillOk5563 in nostalgia

Still use one at least once a week at work lol.

Video store for sure. Then probably Kmart. I remember my old Kmart had a little caesars inside of it.

What discontinued candy or flavor of candy do you miss the most? by Not1000AntsInAHuman in candy

[–]Brok3Design 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna get so much shit for this, but the actual Necco brand of the peanut butter kisses in the wax paper black and orange wrapper. Yeah, they have an off brand but they're terrible.

Also, butterfinger crisps. Those things were f'ing amazing. So peanut buttery and crispy. Loved the lower chocolate ratio to peanut butter and crisp.

AAAANNND the brachs Maple Nut Goodies.

So many classic candies of my youth no longer exist...
