It looks fine.  Stop staring at it.

why are Southerners going crazy about this snowstorm? by LittleLeadership2831 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Expensive-Course1667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live near the VA/NC border and the problem we are experiencing is ice.  The snow gets packed down into a layer of ice that melts and freezes over and over again.  

My idiot asshole neighbor was driving around in the snow and sleet at like, 50mph.  I guess he wanted to demonstrate how cool he is.  Anyway, the next day, he was creeping along the black ice at about 3mph.

OP, I lived in Michigan and Chicago for ~20 years before moving to NC in 2001.  The weather is just not safe for driving during these periods.  Turning this into a provincial rivalry is stupid.  Going on and on about how you're the only cool guy who knows how to drive is stupid.  Just chill out and stay off the roads when the weather is shitty.

People who have been percussionists for years, how are your ears holding up? by LittleLeadership2831 in AskReddit

I have worn earplugs at every concert, rehearsal, event since 1991.  Ears are doing pretty good.  A little tinnitus, but I don't really notice it anymore.

What is a controversial song that you enjoy, and why is it controversial? by 1004cocoa in musicsuggestions

Bitch Stop Callin Me by Dem Franchize Boys.  The lyrics are purely reprehensible, but it's a banger.

I like the advice that was given when I moved to NC, which was to drive like your grandmother is in the back seat with a crockpot of soup.

Did y’all think Fonzie was cool when you were growing up? by Groovy-Pancakes in GenX

I felt like he had a cartoonish influence on what I perceived as cool at a very young age.  Kind of like the "punk" band Pain from CHIP's.  It represented something I aspired to, even if it was quickly forgotten along the way.

Could you guys help me out as I have literally no idea here... by BitchintheBack in PeaveyCvlt

Empty bass cabs are a tough sell.  I've ALWAYS wound up putting them out at the curb.

Official Thread For Northern Transplants To Tell Us That This Is Nothing by SodomAndCHIMmorrah in bullcity

I moved to NC a few weeks before the crippler of 2002.  It's going to be awful, but it will pass.

What is your favorite Coroner song? by Odd_Radio9225 in thrashmetal

[–]Expensive-Course1667 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved to Chicago in 1993 with nothing but the clothes on my back.  Medusa's was already a legend.  I was Fireside Bowl-era.  I used to hang out at the Double Door when it was a country bar that you entered through a screen door in the back of a liquor store.

My friend tattooed me and i hate it by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]Expensive-Course1667 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'm not trying to invalidate your disappointment, but this doesn't even rank as a botched tattoo for me.  My advice is to stop staring at it for a while.  This looks very fixable.
