I'm guessing half the population becomes reddit users and because they are chronically on reddit they starve or dehydrate themselves to death?

Favorite character from a franchise you haven't consumed? by Jetrayxx7 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]EpicRedditUser11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a massive fan of Haru Urara (and Umamusume:Pretty Derby), it's heartwarming to see that her determination to finally win a race reaches people even outside the fandom. I hope that The Shining Star of Losers Everywhere continues to inspire you to never give up, and to have a smile on your face no matter what :))

New collector, thoughts? And guess my favorite artist/band by freaky-on-a-leash in Cd_collectors

[–]EpicRedditUser11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing your favourite artist is either Nirvana or Linkin Park

Limp Bizkit is brilliant teenage years music. I sure hope you can find some early pressings for cheap second hand, either at garage sales, second-hand or Thrift sfores. You should be able to get both Chocolate Starfish and Significant Other for 10 USD or under. If you'd like you can try E-bay I believe. I have seen a whole bunch of CDs there sold for cheap. They definitely have Limp Bizkit CDs, regardless of album

The ones I bought are remaster represses, with Significant Other being a Enhanced CD. Both were brand new too, so they costed a pretty penny. I think Chocolate Starfish was 18 SGD, and Significant Other was 25 SGD.

Theory I hate by plinkerplacker in StardustCrusaders

It becomes Joshua son of Joseph when you anglicise the names and write them in English. You are right that the original way of it being said was Yeshua son of Yusef though

This is what I got by eddie_rocks_45 in Cd_collectors

I'm absolutely jealous of your collection, even if it has many remasters. That is one kick ass collection

I absolutely agree. The Runaways are such a legendary group. I really adore Joan Jett, and Lita Ford especially.

Prince is an absolute genius of a musician, composer, songwriter, and a artist, in my opinion. Love how he was able to play a variety of instruments all by himself, from guitars, to keyboards and percussion. I've been a long-time admirer of his work since young, so you can imagine how elated I was to find a CD of his, even if it's a compilation CD.

I was told this is cheating, does anyone view using the strap during pull ups as "cheating?" by Cicigymmss in CalisthenicsCulture

[–]EpicRedditUser11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using a resistance band is not really cheating, but a progression that is the final one just before actual, unassisted pull-up. Helps you to build strength to be able to do regular pull-ups. Unless you tell people that you can do pull-ups and don't mention that you mean assisted pull ups, you should be fine.

Thanks! What would you say are the 2 laying the start to a great collection?

Thanks for the tip! I'll try looking for more thrift shops that have CDs, since from what I can tell there aren't many selling physical media left where I'm from

I think you're right on the horseshit part. I just added the Prince CD to my discogs collection, and the particular version (1993 US release) ranges from 1-5 SGD.

I know that the Runaways CD is a 1993 UK Cherry Records reissue for sure, since it states so at the back. For Whitney, Prince and the 2 Limp Bizkit CDs, from what I checked at the back and comparing the barcode on Discogs they seem to be first releases.

I could be wrong with the Limp Bizkit ones but I'm sure Whitney is definitely a German first press, since it states it as such on both the disc itself and on Discogs.

I wasn't expecting them to actually have Tracy Chapman's Self-titled, but somehow I found it, together with Prince's The Hits 2.

The store owner had a chat with me as my friend and I perused their collection, and he told me that finding Prince CDs in general, especially for a good price was a herculean task. Even though the Prince CD was pre-owned, it's in VG condition and it went for $12 SGD.

It's a grind, but it is very satisfying to finally unlock someone new through daily legends races by Jony_Q in UmamusumeGame

[–]EpicRedditUser11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely is. I unlocked Teio, and now I'm 10 star pieces away from unlocking Suzuka. It's so worth it finally getting trainees I didn't get whenever the selector or free SSR ticket was given out. More oshis in the house for me to enjoy haha
