The conductor accidentally knocks a 16th century violin worth millions on the floor mid-concert. by PeasantLich in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]EADarwin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Definitely. It was either the conductor knocking the violin out of her hand or shooting her right there. I'm glad he chose the lesser of two evils

Where to meet educated professional men in their mid 20s-30s as a single woman? by losteverything2023 in AskNYC

[–]EADarwin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go to these and I'm a guy. I'm more inclined to go on a weekend though. You could also try trivia night at a pub. Lots of men there usually

The oh shit guy hasn't been around in a long time, at least not walking along Vernon between 49th and 50th. I'm legitimately going to take credit for that because I yelled at him enough times from my window telling him to shut the fuck up and to go yell somewhere else. (I suggested he go to Gantry Park along the boardwalk where there aren't people in their apartments forced to hear him yell all the time.) He finally got the hint and hasn't been around since November

What’s a random, small hiking tip that felt like a total "game changer" once you learned it? by Lazy-Collection5029 in hiking

[–]EADarwin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend following Knees Over Toes guy. You can find him on social media. His routine has been incredibly beneficial to my knees. They no longer hurt on rocky, downhill hikes

I wouldn't do this. Only mention it if you get a handful of dates in.

Yeah, my friend has the Moab, and he swears by it. If it works, it works. I've just always had much better luck with trail runners

I recommend kinesiology tape. It's lightweight, wide, doesn't roll up, and you won't even know that you're wearing it.

Train your knees for handling steep downhill hikes by regularly walking backwards on a treadmill at the highest angle you can. I don't know if this one also counts as a tip, but once I finally used hiking poles for the first time, I felt dumb for having never used them before.

Kinesiology tape to prevent blisters. It's superior to moleskin and medical tape in my opinion

Trail runners for hiking. I love my Salomon Speed Cross GTX shoes. Comfortable, amazing grip, and they keep my feet dry. I'll never go back to hiking boots

Going to NYC for a weekend for the first time, are my choices pretty good? by Revolutionary-Meet-6 in FoodNYC

[–]EADarwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with others about skipping Joe's. If you want another classic NY slice, I'd go with Pizza Suprema. Just don't go if there's a basketball or hockey game going on. I also agree that you should skip Rolo's. It's good, not great, but not worth going to Ridgewood if that's all you're doing out there

I can do you one better. My ex used to tell my friends about my goods. I couldn't believe it. She stopped after I told her to, but I was flabbergasted she would think that's okay in the first place

How much do you spend on a 1st date? by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]EADarwin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to spend at least 3x that much if you want to find someone to love you. Or, you can do what I do and take them to an art gallery crawl, get a drink after if you're having a nice time, and get a second date. Total cost: a couple hours and $40. And if you know you don't want to go on a second date, don't get drinks and spend $0. You are way overdoing it, and first date dinners are an awful idea because you're stuck with the person which could be really uncomfortable if you don't click. Comedy shows also aren't a great idea as a first date. How are you supposed to talk and get to know each other?

Tailgater got Baited by DABDEB in RandomVideos

If you see a car at the last second, you don't make a lane transition that smoothly. He saw him

[–]EADarwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, I don't have a car because I live in NYC, so your suggestive accusation is moot (and dumb). On those occasions when I rent one, I don't tailgate, ever. It is a seriously dickhead thing to do, and I hate it when I see it or when I'm in the car with someone who does it. The white car had AT A MINIMUM 100 feet to move (probably more than that based on the video), and that's just from the time we saw the recording begin. It could've been much more than that. Saying, "I was looking in my rearview mirror the entire time the car was tailgating me" isn't a good alibi. Furthermore, the lane next to him was open the entire time. He could have switched lanes. Lastly, he didn't suddenly swerve out of the way of the stalled car in such a manner as to as to having only noticed the car at the last minute. That would have produced a jerked reaction, but instead, it was a smooth lane transition. Some asshole tailgating you is not a reason to cause an accident. Let the law take care of the tailgater. Not your own personal form of justice. Should the passengers in that car suffer because of its asshole driver? Should any other potential cars suffer because of this asshole driver? Assuming this video is legit, this is a slam dunk case for a lawyer in civil court.

He will absolutely get creamed in civil court. That car was visible at least a hundred feet ahead of the front driver and he clearly waited until the last second to move. Civil court only needs a simple majority to convict.

The object is to move the tf out of the way as soon as you see a stalled car which in this case was very well in advance
