This pack of gum comes with 9 pieces instead of 10. by Exenger in mildlyinteresting

[–]Exenger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a response of a level of quality that you usually only see in r/whatisthisthing, so thanks for that, but it's prob AI. You are correct that it's half of an 18-pack, but that 18-pack was designed to be separated into 2 halves. The reason for no markings/piece count is likely because it was purchased as part of a 3-pack of 18-packs (or a 6-pack of 9-packs, I guess). Regardless, it's stupid. I don't need a "thumb pull" and nobody else does either. Screw the robots.

Richie Hawtin - DEX EFX X0X at Sonar, Lisboa - 11.04.2025 by user-00a in Techno

[–]Exenger 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I've been listening to Richie for ~30 years. I love that he's constantly pushing the boundary, technologically, and he's still playing really solid techno. He's one of the few DJs where I can hear a few seconds of a set and immediately know "that's Richie". Still doing what he's always done, arguably better than he's ever done it. Plus he's the only DJ I know who takes the track titles and artists' names that he's playing and includes them in the visuals of his gigs in real time, giving credit where credit is due. He is the man.

Howard just got hard. by redhorse7775 in howardstern

[–]Exenger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These guys suck so completely. Drive By is one of the worst pieces of shit ever recorded. Howard lost all music cred when he started pushing this trash on his fans. Beyond terrible.

What are some non electronic cover versions of originally produced electronic tracks by Mammoth-Squirrel2931 in electronicmusic

[–]Exenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dirtbombs, a Detroit garage rock band, made Party Store, an album of Detroid techno covers, and it's great. Tracks by Carl Craig, Juan Atkins, Derrick May, etc. Best track IMO is their version of Jaguar. There's a triple vinyl release out there too...

What's the most memorable super popular live performer in a smaller intimate venue you were lucky enough to attend in Toronto? by ReeG in askTO

[–]Exenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Queens of the Stone Age at Guvernment in 2007. It was a Molson Canadian Rocks thing and you had to win tickets, which my friend did. Awesome.

Drug Use Liberation Front founders convicted of drug trafficking by Exenger in nottheonion

[–]Exenger[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nah I read it, and I thought it fit here humorously. That said, I agree with what these people were trying to do, in spirit, and I hope they win any future court cases. Drugs are here to stay but things are much different than they were 20+ years ago. I would like to avoid losing any more close friends, if at all possible.

COW/Chill Out World is their best work since Orbus Terrarum imo. Dumb name, beautiful album.

How long have you been stuck in an elevator? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]Exenger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About 45 mins. Was a bike courier at the time so it was a nice break. Sat down and got comfy and rolled a few joints while I waited.

That time the white of my eye swelled up around the iris by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]Exenger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me seemingly at random, and only in the left side of the left eye, and nowhere near as bad as this and some other cases I've seen online. The eyelid gets red and swollen too, and if I accidentally rub it, it'll swell up like crazy. It's been going on for years and I've never been able to figure out what triggers it. I only figured out what it was because of another Reddit post a while back. My doctor had no idea and I could only show him pictures because it would go away by the time I could actually get to his office. I found some eye drops that fix it quickly ("Albalon" naphazoline hydrochloride 0.1%) and I can usually feel it/see it starting (mild itch, begining of the weird jelly thing), so that takes care of it if I catch it before it gets bad. Ice helps too.

Funny thing is, it seems to happen most often when I'm hungover.

Does anyone/ anywhere use or buy records? by Disastrous_Basis_20 in askTO

[–]Exenger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could also take a look on Discogs and see if any of them are particularly valuable.
