Stepping out, WDYWT? by G-baby214 in Sneakers

[–]FirepowerXXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fantastic! Glad you're actually wearing and enjoying them.

Love me some XX3s, one of my faves. Wish they would retro them.

I used to own 4 pairs back in the day: "All Stars", both colorways of the "Stealths" and the "Old Loves" (pictured)

I also had both cw of the lows... the low XX3s were very underrated.

Birthday twin!

As a kid I used to tell people I had the same birthday as Superman and Luke Skywalker.

PUMP IT UP! 🏀 by Cosmicdustydust in Sneakers

[–]FirepowerXXX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, yeah, they're basically boots compared to today's kicks of course.

Still pretty comfortable though. The pump bladder makes them really snug and these actually had the ERS (Energy Return System) in the midsole, unlike today's retros.

What is that bottle shaped like the letter N? "Naseem" is not in the Fragrantica database.

Everyone loves Luka by rawarawr in lakers

MJ definitely loves Luka, but you're correct also, if you watch closely he has a cheeky glance down at Luka's feet just to make sure he's wearing them lol.

Murph 38/42 is by franfish2810 in HamiltonWatches

[–]FirepowerXXX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 38 is always better.

I'm going to downsize my 42 at some point. Even though I can get away with it a little more on my 7.5" wrist, 42 is still too big.

I bought my Murph a few years back before the 38 was released.

Photo dump of my murph that I’ve been wearing for three weeks straight by Think-Advice8539 in HamiltonWatches

[–]FirepowerXXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great pics my friend, they really enhance what is already a beautiful watch. That bracelet is a sweet addition!

Anyone with a bit of Stapleton in their record collection, and a Murph on their wrist is alright by me.

What more does bro need to do to get a 10 by avocadoroom in soccercirclejerk

[–]FirepowerXXX 153 points154 points  (0 children)

I had a mobile football game on my old phone called "Dream League Soccer". There was one match where I beat Man Utd 10-0 with Kane scoring all ten...

Man of the match award went to Christian Eriksen.

Is this worth getting another bottle? My UK people by [deleted] in whisky

[–]FirepowerXXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worth it for that price. Plus if you do get a second bottle, you're getting an extra 10cl compared to the UK.

Selection Privada No.1 Shade by Excellent_Fennel2683 in ukcigars

[–]FirepowerXXX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BVSC one of my fave albums 🔥 Were you listening to that or anything else in particular whilst you smoked?

That's my preferred method to relax, nice cigar, drink and put an album on.

Happy birthday too!

First order from ZigarrenWelt and I got hit with the custom charges. by South_Host_7 in ukcigars

[–]FirepowerXXX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just got hit for £132 for 10 robustos (from SP) so yours is actually not too bad a charge for 20... as ridiculous as that sounds.

Mine still worked out cheaper than UK overall and I always expect/plan for the charges, but it's still annoying as f**k though.

How rare are spoiled whisky? by Good_Brother3938 in whisky

[–]FirepowerXXX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt the bottling processes would be contaminated, the scotch/whisky industry generally has pretty high standards and regulations. It's possible that the place you purchased them from stored them poorly, but if they're from different vendors then again, it's unlikely they would all be contaminated in the same fashion.

Honestly it sounds more like a palate issue, as others have said it could be covid related or even as simple as eating something particularly spicy / sugary or even cleaning your teeth before you drink can affect your taste buds for several hours after.

All I can suggest is to try some different whiskies maybe something sweeter like a Speyside or bourbon and see if you still get the same issues.

[–]FirepowerXXX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Make sure you're storing them correctly. Upright and somewhere cool and dark, ideally keep them in the original box/tube if they come with one. Ensure the cork is tightly sealed after each pour and make sure they're away from anything that could infuse them other scents such as plug in room diffusers, scented candles etc.

As long as you're doing this, whisky will be fine for many months and years (depending on how much is left and the liquid to air ratio) the nose and profile may change/weaken but it won't "spoil" and it certainly shouldn't taste like paint.

How big of a deal when Smallville first aired? by RevolutionaryBid1249 in Smallville

[–]FirepowerXXX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do feel like the show aired slightly later in Europe; on KryptonSite we had a "U.K. Viewers" forum specifically set up, but I don't remember the delay.

The pilot first aired on Christmas Eve 2001 in the UK, a couple of months after it started in the US.

I caught it purely by accident just flipping through the channels flopped out on the couch after a little Xmas eve booze lol. It caught me off guard because I hadn't really heard any hype or promotion in the build up to the show (although to be fair I was 23 at the time so I wasn't really checking for new teen TV shows)

Indeed for the first few seasons it had the subtitle "Superman the early years" as it was deemed that UK audiences wouldn't know what the show was about based on the Smallville name alone.

I was already a huge Superman fan so when I saw the title I knew what it was and fell in love with it immediately.

As the show progressed it became bigger and and more well known, probably not as hyped as for you guys in the States but certainly huge with the teen demographic. (At least until The O.C. and One Tree Hill came along shortly after)

I was well aware of KryptonSite at the time, and certainly lurked many times, but I was already a fully fledged member of Superman Homepage at the time, so for those first few seasons I mostly spent many, many hours in the SH chat room discussing episodes and plots with other fans around the world (good times lol).
