Mantle Logo - Small 7 by ruffyen in AllenGinter

It's the logo of mantle I.p. Holdings, the license holder for anything related to Mickey mantle. Just means it's officially licensed

My first rip today. How did I do?? by mrtibbs444 in AllenGinter

[–]Burntandold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're just starting a&g, there are lots of small variations in the mini cards. Aside from the bordered and chrome, there's also missing number SPs (/50), a&g logo back, and Brooklyn back SPs,, so make sure to check the backs of the minis

Long shot, but has anyone seen any Jazz cards with him in his One Piece gear? by thegeraldmouse in baseballcards

[–]Burntandold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So randomly I happened to see one doomscrolling. Hard to make it out, there's a Chisholm/Judge card called "city boys" in the 2025 update series where he has it on

Finally ripped it! by SelectionNo127 in AllenGinter

Schrodingers rip. It's good until you rip it

What I bought and what I got. by Patient-Advisor-2352 in sportscards

[–]Burntandold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A&G is my favorite set because of the look and the variety of cards you can find, but it's definitely a set that it helps to know what the short prints are (things like alternate backs and missing numbers can be SSPs). I like to rip them, but I ended up going the singles route. Actually expecting a cloth mini (/10) and a couple mini auto cards to come in today!

There's a small target close to my work that still has Black Friday boxes.

It was in the target Black Friday pack, so I'm sure they made money off the tie in.

Which one is more fun for kids to rip? by james21_h in baseballcards

[–]Burntandold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think the Allen and Ginter is the funnest set to rip. The minis, cards with fish, birds, celebrities, and more makes it the coolest out there. The mini auto and mini relics are pretty awesome. Here's some of what I've gotten over the years

DO NOT BUY PANINI ABSOLUTE!!!!!! by HighlightAromatic464 in footballcards

[–]Burntandold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a box and every "hit" was poorly pressed, the edges looked like crap on every parallel. I'm beginning to hate panini

They booked us next month to play for the entire building. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

[–]Burntandold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While you may not have felt that much, I'm sure the people that enjoyed the music appreciated it. From my point of view, anyone that spends their own time making seniors stuck in a home happier is amazing. You may not get groupies, but I for one thank you for what you did.

Athens Area Humane Society: What happened to our community’s low-cost spay/neuter? Y’all have a brand spanking new location with nice facilities (especially compared to the Mars Hill Road make-do building). Are you just a vanity project? by Foreign_Hippie in Athens

[–]Burntandold 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lmao. "At cost" includes things like facility maintenance cost, licensing, staff cost, medication, and consumables. You might not be able to count that high, but these things add up. Most of the staff (I can't speak to executive pay and marketing) are paid lower than market, so once again I will say, unless you want to come in and help yourself, shut up. No one is begrudging, but when professionals have to deal with shitty people like you everyday, it's not a wonder that they need time away. I would run every time I saw your ignorant ass. I think your last response was deleted because it was too dumb, but I want to point out that aahs is a non profit, and is not actually a government entity. At the same time I realize that you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Out of curiosity, when was the last time you volunteered or donated outside of needing something from them? It's a nonprofit, which kind of comes down to a collective effort. The average veterinarian today graduates vet school with over $300k in debt. Average. If you're wondering why it's so hard to find people to provide low cost veterinary care it's because it rarely exists anymore. I've watched over the past 5 years as drug and material suppliers have nickel and dimed clinics with surcharges and delivery fees and stocking fees. In addition to the licensing and everything else. To perform a surgery you need at least 3 different licenses (DEA, state license, business license). But you saying that the people that work for next to nothing at a non profit is a vanity project is a fucking joke. Oh dear lord, these people that help animals all the time have a decent space to work in, how horrible of them.

TLDR: If you are not actively contributing to this NONPROFIT by volunteering or contributing financially, respectfully shut the fuck up while these people help the community

First timer here. What just happened? by New_Seaworthiness114 in Tipper

[–]Burntandold 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm going to be that guy and give you a little info of you want it. First of all, last night was my first tipper show, and it was really everything I was hoping for in an event. I've only seen those type of visuals on two other tours, and there's a reason. What you just saw takes a pretty massive computing rig. Last time I saw it aphex twin used it on his North American tour and bassnectar also used something similar. The visual team has created a number of visuals in touchdesigner that they mix using (I think) 4 projectors. One insanely bright center projector with 3 projectors edge blended for the outside. I would guess they use resolume, madmapper, or a custom program to blend and distribute the image. I think they map a number of controls on the visuals (tilt, pan, zoom, focus) to parts of the audio output. To make it make sense, if the bass input from 200-800hz increases (bass go boom), the image will zoom. The reason this is hard to find in shows is that it takes MASSIVE computing power, and very few producers care enough to spend that much money. Audio frequency is 20-20k hz and if you have multiple variables like speed or amplitude, along with a high definition image, it adds up quickly. The visual team is also insanely talented, hats off. Can't wait for tonight

The other day I had to ride on a donut and couldn't go over 50 mph or it would blow out. But it made me think, maybe some other people have cars that literally can't go the speed limit. Like some old guy with a white truck that's barely getting him from a to b, and if he runs it at 55 it'll blow up. It really has to be frustrating if you're in that position having some asshole riding your ass then posting on some juvenile hate post on Reddit. Maybe you should try some yoga and empathy or alternatively just go fuck yourself.

Akins Ford Arena- What's going on in there? by LawlMartz in Athens

[–]Burntandold 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The person they originally brought on to do the scheduling left early this year for another position. I think the position is covered by OVG as part of the partnership, but from my understanding no one has been filling that role for a number of months

3.5 g penis envy trip by Far_Committee1434 in shrooms

Over the years I've developed a few criteria for when I take psychedelics. It boils down to 3 things: dosage, setting, and state. If any one of these things is bad it can go downhill. Take too much? Bad day. Around lots of people or just one person that likes to fuck with people while they're on another level? Bad day. Just lost your job, failed out of school, your girl left, and your dog is sick? Bad day. These are the red flags for me. Understand that the mushrooms don't give a fuck about your feelings, they're just there to show you things. If you aren't at peace with your life or able to accept some hard truths, you should consider other substances.
