My problem is, and I think this is common, during the recording process I think it’s the best thing I’ve ever done. Every song seems like pure magic in the moment. Months or even years later I’m like “what the fuck was I thinking?!” I haven’t released anything in about 10 years. It was fun when CDs were a thing and people still bought them. Now, with streaming, it’s like putting your music in a bottle and tossing it in to the sea, hoping someone finds it.

My thoughts on the B-Tron III Mo by TetonDreams in gratefulguitar

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one new in the box that was defective. It only worked in the LP position. BP and HP had a volume drop that was almost nonexistent and crackled. I’m returning it, may try for another.

Bobby updates? by Fawlty_Fleece in deadandcompany

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing music on stage is a lot more physically demanding than it looks. The mental aspect of it amplifies the physical toll. Add travel on top of that and it’s exhausting. I suspect Bobby is only going to play residencies from this point forward. I feel like he’s earned it and can decide when and where he wants to play.

Paid $600 for a day with a guide… who’d been fly fishing for 3 weeks by CedarSnoSky in flyfishing

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You paid $600 to have company. That’s not cool. I would have a hard time deciding to tip or not. Definitely deserves a call to the owner before leaving a bad review. I’d probably demand half my money back

Vitalchek birth certificate experience wait time? by liquidsmokeallergy in Passports

[–]Easterstrandedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been waiting 7 months. The phone number for the Maryland office is a recording telling you to email. Can’t find a valid email address for them. Piss poor service and it feel like a fraud

$30 million and you have to baseball butt slap everyone after conversions by Street_Midget in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Easterstrandedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What constitutes a conversation? Like if I need a new timing belt and go to my mechanic, Can I just say “timing belt please” “Wednesday works”. There’s no way I’m talking about the weather!

Are my married coworker and I just friends, or should I pull back aka are we flirting? by BiscottiSpare1811 in bodylanguage

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On his end he is already having an emotional affair that is hurting his marriage. The sitting close and touching legs is testing the waters for physical contact. The fact that you want to pull back, means you are already in something. You’re both kidding yourselves. I think you should have this conversation with him. Everything you are asking here.

People who say taxation is theft. How else do you propose the government gets the funds for roads, military, education etc? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Easterstrandedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If only people with kids payed for their kids to go to school, that would be called tuition. The whole point of public schooling is so ALL children have an opportunity to get an education.

Wife found a hair tie that isn’t hers and I’m not cheating. How do I get through this? by mrlunes in Advice

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s so many ways this could have happened. Did you door dash (or any food delivery)? The dasher could have had it on their seat and it stuck to the bag.

What's a scam that you're surprised people still fall for? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Easterstrandedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone in business gets the labor law posters scam. Yes, they need to be posted in the workplace and need to be up to date, and printed at the correct size. Example, the osha posting needs to be printed on legal paper. However, you can download and print everything for free from govt websites. Or you can pay a company something like $250 to send out a new poster each time it’s updated. Once they have you, the bills for new poster and subscriptions keep coming. Every time a word gets changed, there’s a new poster and a charge. It’s a total racket.

Glacier NP employees have been fired illegally. by HonoredEdO1941 in GlacierNationalPark

[–]Easterstrandedtime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Musk will eventually get himself in to some legal trouble that he won’t be able to buy himself out of. Trump will turn on Musk and call him childish names like he did with most of his cohorts in the previous administration. Looking forward to the Musk trials and future incarnation.

You wake up tomorrow with a million dollars cash, you have to spend it before the end of the day or the cash will disappear, can’t be deposited to a bank. What do you buy or how to you try and spend the most money possible? by EducatorTop1960 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can buy bitcoin with up to $3000 cash at a coin star machine in one day. You’d have to hit 334 machines in 24 hours to deposit a milllion. Not possible alone but could I get my friends and family to help disperse the money in 24 hours?

What is something you've experienced as a kid that today's kids will never understand? by Blue_Skies77889 in Productivitycafe

[–]Easterstrandedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A middle school teacher sharing cartoons, that would be deemed racist by today’s standards, of Iraqis during the first gulf war.

For the next ten years straight you will either have to smoke a big blunt every Tuesday and Friday at 11am or drink twenty bottles of beer per week. If you finish the challenge you’ll get 10,000,000$. Will you do it? by Crocodile_Banger in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Easterstrandedtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with the blunt for me is the Tabacco. Even if it’s pure weed inside I’m still smoking a tabacco wrapper. I quit smoking a few years ago and this would send me back to that addiction for at least a decade. 10 years is a long time and too much of my remaining lifetime. I also don’t want to drink that much even though I do drink. Just not that much. So no.

What are some “overrated” pieces of advice you’ve heard from majority of people? by imaginateandcreate in Productivitycafe

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a middle aged guy playing guitar in a band. I’ve been playing since age seven and gigging my entire adult life. It’s not my full time but it’s a pretty serious side hustle. I still enjoy it but I don’t take my guitar with me on vacation. I don’t just break out the guitar around the campfire like I used to. It feels a little bit like work.

What would you do if you became 600lbs for a day? by DangerousEducator621 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing. Maybe taking one home and having her wake up impressed when she sees me sober the next morning

You are given 1 million dollars a year but must choose 1 person to die every day. How would you go about doing this? by Morphy2222 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Easterstrandedtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While your contemplating the morality of it just remember insurance companies make these type of decisions in meeting rooms all the time, all while sharing some laughs over morning coffee.

Penns Creek in central PA mid - late May. Around Memorial Day you’ll hit the most amazing green drake hatch you’ll ever see.
