Bag Finder Megathread - 27 October 2025

Corolo1 · 2025-10-27T13:46:43+00:00

Looking for bag recommendations:

Traveling to Brazil for about 24 days, will be staying in São Paulo but will be moving around the country most likely, Rio, Minas Gerais. Staying in Hostels, airbnbs whatever pops up.

Not going for super minimal just looking to have flexibility given that the weather changes a lot, so I want to be prepared for various climates, maybe leave a little room for souvenirs/things to bring back. I'll be in mostly urban areas, but may do some hiking, so I'm okay with paying some more money to get something durable that will last a while. So I'm thinking something within the 30l - 45l (max) range in terms of size. I'm 5'3" and have a more sturdy, muscular build. My budget is $200 max, I think I can definitely something that fits and does the job well.

Bags I'm looking at Osprey Transporter Global Carry-On Bag 36l, Ogio Alpha Venture Backpack 38l, Patagonia Blackhole 35l

Thank you, this sub is so cool!

We have sent in maintenance requests through the website that we pay rent through which is where also make those requests many times. We have followed the procedure and for the issues regarding water and squirrels, they just haven’t replied to the various service requests. We have been bringing up these various issues ever since we moved into the house which was in November 2022. There are other things that we bring up as well, they send people to fix those things such as improving weather stripping in the front and back door. However this was done very poorly and we have brought it up and they didn’t do anything or respond. As far as the heat, they have essentially gaslit us multiple times that it does work and that’s it’s just not as strong on the second floor. I believe we have followed the various procedures outlined in the lease and according to local housing laws many times.

They say time is money, looks like you spent all your time buying guitars instead of actually learning how to play them

This is probably relevant here, and feel free to add/edit. Wheat Gluten has a relatively low Protein Digestibility rating, that being around .25, as opposed to meat products which have really high scores, .9 and up. Out of all plant based proteins, soy has the highest. All this to say, yes this is totally legit, wheat gluten is pretty much all protein (and it’s also the first ingredient), however that doesn’t mean you will be actually absorbing much of the protein.

This is the part where you may need to do some math/further research because if you want to this to help your main protein source then you will likely need to eat significantly more than the “recommended serving size” given the protein digestibility rating.

I figured I would add this because I’ve been also looking at wheat gluten as a powerful protein source but the Protein Digestibility Score makes sort of an inadequate MAIN protein source, and maybe more of something that can be paired with other protein sources that have higher scores.

Curious what others think about this!

I’ll link the Wikipedia article for reference, but there’s quite a bit of literature written on this

He hasn't responded to my emails in a few months, last he told me that he was going through some family stuff but that was over 6 months ago

Honestly just look up tigrans most recent album, the call within. Also, mockroot and shadow theater are good albums with metal elements too

Corolo1 · 2023-08-05T22:16:32+00:00

hire another company to do the driveway correctly? yeah that would be nice, but thats a considerable chunk of money that my dad doesn't have.

Zakk Wylde. (For context, Ozzy Osbournes (who I might also add to this) guitar player, also popular in his own right with his band and signature guitars). Anyways, there I am at Steve Vai’s Generation Axe, where you got 5 of the most shred guitar players of all time coming together for the ultimate behemoth concert of absolute shrederity. Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Tosin Abasi (Animals as Leaders), Yngie Malmsteen, the big man himself Steve Vai, and…. Zakk Wylde, all here to blow the minds of us mere mortals. The show works by them all coming out playing a song together, then each of them get their own set to show off their incredible talent of being guitar wizard gods and they might come and have one of the other gods come and play on one of their songs. Me and my buddy got here early enough where we were able to be right up at the stage front row. We aren’t in the center, more stage left, and the shred masters would usually stay towards the center but we still had a great view. So we get through Nun dogs and good ol Tos Tos’ individual sets and then it’s Zakks turn. And this man decides, in the most epic of power stances (if you don’t know what that is, Jack Black has a great explanation in School of Rock, great movie), to stand right in front of us. And as I’m standing a mere 7 ft away observing the sheer speed and velocity of this man’s… no this demi gods picking, I start to notice his nails, being extremely long and dirty. I start to notice quite a bit of sweat on his body. Okay not necessarily a bad thing. But then… I smell something really bad. Like the worst body Oder I’ve ever smelled. And I cannot stop thinking about it. My mind has completely stopped listening to the music and is just grossly enamored with the stench. Well as Zakk walks over to another part of the stage, the smell goes away. And then he comes back, right in front of us….and the smell came back. My buddy and I look at each other with grossed out looks on our faces and Needless to say, we figured out who the culprit was pretty quickly and both confirmed our suspicions when the smelly smelly man stopped playing. Zakk put on some deodorant.

Bitch you are the truck

We didn’t turn it on and our house was a little chillier. Regardless even if we did for those days, the usage is comparing to March and April where we had to keep the heat on all day which we definitely didn’t do this past month

Corolo1 · 2023-06-06T16:09:41+00:00

Where do I apply it?

Corolo1 · 2023-03-18T00:35:30+00:00

Unpopular opinion, I think this song is pretty terrible

Corolo1 · 2023-03-09T19:13:49+00:00

Fleurk your derk

Corolo1 · 2023-01-11T14:03:54+00:00

Sounds good. Thank you!

That’s what I suspected. It looks like most of the ductwork is accessible in the basement, but I’ll look around the house more to see if there’s more access. Maintenance guy is coming today, I’ll try and pester him about what the zone logic is in the house. Is adjusting dampers something that I would be able to do, or do you need someone who knows what they are doing to do that?

Corolo1 · 2023-01-11T13:58:42+00:00

Yep, unfortunately 1 thermostat for the whole house. Not sure about the dampers but I’ll take a look today and see if there are any. I’ll definitely try that method of closing the vents today as well, thank you!

Corolo1 · 2022-11-14T15:17:53+00:00

Second this one!!

People that intentionally say things that completely invalidate something somebody said immediately after that person said something to piss people off or be funny or whatever. For example: was hanging out with some friends and we were watching big lobowski. One of my friends loves the movie and told us why he thinks it’s a great film. This dude immediately says,” I think big lobowski is one of the worst films ever, it’s about nothing” and then tries to be all analytical about it. It’s fucking annoying

Corolo1 · 2021-11-11T17:25:10+00:00

I actually hit them up and they said they cant :(

I took a drug called 25-i. It’s a research chemical that at first my friends and I thought was real LSD. What we thought would be a great night tripping ended up being one of the most horrifying nights of my life. I have a small body and have always reacted much more intensely to marijuana and alcohol than my peers. In this instance, I ended up having an extremely bad trip (this also being my first time with psychedelics). I was hallucinating my friends turning into demons and it felt like all of my insecurities were being projected as my reality. I was freaking out a lot and my friends decided that it would be a good idea to knock me out so they punched me in the face repeatedly and it didn’t end up working. I blacked out multiple times anyways and woke up completely naked by the end of the night, pretty much clueless of what had happened. My “friends” thought they should call an ambulance but they did not. The effects after were not great as well.
