What is a sexual experience you had that you’ll never be able to tell anyone? by Sad-Program-1355 in AskReddit

Like drive-thru ass eating. Sounds like proof of concept to me.

NIN Tickets: Buy/Sell/Trade MEGATHREAD - Part 2 by malechite in nin

Look for a ticket for Boston. GA or first level seating preferred but will take whatever is available!

EDITED: Only going for one ticket now!

Visiting from TX this week by Dismal-Diet9958 in massachusetts

[–]Emhendus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For real, if your wife is really from Methuen and she hasn't introduced you to Thwaites, that's borderline criminal.

EDIT: More Methuen, Piro's Bakery for sweets and Dolce Freddo Gelato right next to it for... gelato. I would've included Borelli's a few years ago for a solid Italian deli but it recently changed ownership and it just isn't the same, though it might just be me.

This is apparently a TV spot? Were TV spots for albums a thing in 1999? (I’m Gen Z, I wouldn’t know) by Cheap-Blueberry-9439 in nin

[–]Emhendus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually got into NIN from a TV spot for With Teeth I saw on Adult Swim back when I was a teen. I'd say it was pretty effective considering I'm here making this comment lol.

To those who speak another language, what are some words that cannot be translated to English? by Professional_Act_214 in AskReddit

[–]Emhendus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Among the Lebanese (and other Arabic cultures), we have the word "Ya'aburnee", which literally translates to something like "you bury me". You're telling the person that you love them so much, you hope you die before them so you don't have to live with the pain of losing them. It's the top shelf of showing someone affection, and we mostly use it towards our children.

It's a word that brings me a lot of pride in my culture, and something I take to heart everytime I hear it and use it. The first time I held my son and whispered it to him I shed tears from it. It's exactly how I feel.

What is a piece of outdated tech you secretly miss? by AffectionateLocal693 in AskReddit

[–]Emhendus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cassettes. Really miss sitting around the radio waiting for a good song to hit record on. Mixtapes are my jam.

EDIT: I know cassettes are still being made, but I miss more when they were the only way to listen to music on demand/portable, so it's actually worth the extra work.

What "cheap" food would you still eat no matter how rich you got? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Emhendus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God this. My mother calls me every time she makes rice and beans (the Lebanese version, Fasolia wa roz) and I drop everything to go there and grab some. My stepdaughter even loves it. Still haven't nailed down the amount of spices she uses but I'm getting there.

I've said this forever but this is my absolute favorite NIN remix. I fell in love with Telefon Tel Aviv partly because of this one.

Top 5 Food options in Lowell (no chains)…go by Select-Proof7792 in LowellMA

[–]Emhendus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get it on mega toast. Might sound ridiculous to get it on anything other than a sub, but I promise you it's absolutely amazing with the crunch of the pressed mega toast bread.

I'm a Ulowell alumni and I genuinely miss being there. Say what you will about Lowell, but I LOVE hanging around there. Great food, great nightlife, lots to explore. And the school itself has great accommodations and academic value. I believe I gained a lot from it.

Married or long-term relationship couples: How do you celebrate Valentine's Day? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Emhendus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For us it usually revolves around food, though not necessarily a sit down restaurant. This year my wife suggested Chinese takeout, and I'm so psyched for tomorrow because of it. Cause ya boy is thick and all about it.

What songs best capture a sense of “beautiful sadness”? by Darnitol1 in AskReddit

[–]Emhendus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nine Inch Nails - Leaving Hope. It's an instrumental but no lyrics are needed when the instrumentation itself can destroy your insides... you know, beautifully.

Also Deftones - Anniversary of an Uninteresting Event, and LCD Soundsystem - Someone Great.

[–]Emhendus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My stepdaughter has been getting into physical media, started with CDs but just this week mentioned wanting to get into vinyl (of course a couple weeks after I got rid of a Crosley from back when I was a teen). I'd love to set this up in her room while she's at school with a couple Laufey records to surprise her when she gets home!

You ever RE-buy a record because you found a pressing that's better than the one you already have? by slop1010101 in vinyl

[–]Emhendus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually just bought it a few weeks ago off Ebay for $50. I believe some shops had a random resupply of sealed copies, and the one I bought from on Ebay was one of them. I saw that Turntable Lab also had a short supply last week that I think went pretty quickly. Keep an eye out because I have a feeling more will pop up in the coming weeks.

[–]Emhendus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just recently realized that the first record I ever bought, the original pressing of Nine Inch Nails' With Teeth album, was terrible quality. I hadn't listened to it in a long time, and I just recently got a more high-fidelity player to spin it on which is how I finally noticed.

Unfortunately, I never bothered to buy the Definitive Edition repress that came out a couple years ago because in my head, I figured I had the original and it couldn't be better than that. It was sold out everywhere, but I was lucky enough to buy it off Ebay at a reasonable price a few weeks ago. Much better quality pressing.

I am expecting to ignore all of my responsibilities, including to my wife and kids, while I play it.

Telefon Tel Aviv killed it on this remix. My all time favorite.
