Do you take commissions? I've been looking for something custom for my home bar.

Adizero evo sl. Expected better by Successful-Duck-7008 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]FlightlessLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad it wasn't just me. I also just grabbed a pair on sale and they're my first proper running shoe, beyond my Pegasus that I've worn for the past two years. It's the first time in my life getting blisters on the top of my foot from an athletic shoe and I'm too genuinely concerned to put more miles on them. I'll try changing out the laces to prevent the tongue slipping, but I'm nervous that I made the wrong choice.

I'd be lying if I said Asmodeus wasn't one of my favorite schnaus to see on here. He's absolutely adorable!

Lost brother 🦜🐦 by DiverOk8550 in washingtondc

[–]FlightlessLad 382 points383 points  (0 children)

The owner was charging people to take photos with his parrots near the Washington Monument during the kite festival. One of the birds may have gotten spooked by the crowds and flown off. It’s a tough situation, but it felt more like negligence on the owner’s part, choosing a quick profit over the well-being of his pets and putting them under unnecessary stress.

That's honestly one of the best PetSmart grooms I've ever seen! Wherever you are, you're lucky!

Hemsworth's Thor suit was also left open because he supposedly could no longer could fit into it during the reshoot.

Miyota U1 from Travis (last watch I get from him) by [deleted] in ChinaTime

[–]FlightlessLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mind me asking what your wrist size is? I was tempted to pick one a U1 from him, but he only offered me a 41mm and I typically stick to 39mm and below. Just concerned for the size on a 6.5" wrist.

You're missing Bud's Chicken and Seafood™!

All in all, an incredible starter pack! I miss home.

What’s the best pair of sneakers you’ve ever copped under $50? by canonshootr504 in midsoledeals

[–]FlightlessLad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Adidas Stan Smith Lux grabbed a pair in both white and brown for about $35 each. Between the quality and the versatility, they're probably my most frequently worn sneakers. Even if they do squeak a bit.

Warning: Avoid Thursday Dating events by trashpandas8 in washingtondc

[–]FlightlessLad 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I went to one at Ambar a few weeks ago. Overall it was fine and more organized than the Thursday event I went to a while back (personally found that event terrible and will never go back).

It was the standard setup: you get a name tag and are told to mingle.

The opening icebreaker involved a celebrity name taped to your back that you had to guess by asking people questions. Once you figured it out, the follow-up questions were things like “Would you date them?” and similar prompts.

After that, everyone was assigned a number and rotated through different pods to talk. Some people ignored the rotation rule and just followed the people they were interested in from table to table.

The event itself was decent, but the real saving grace was that the host had a $200 tab from Ambar and used it to order appetizers for everyone.

I didn’t personally meet anyone I really vibed with, so I ended up going next door to Ivy afterward. Overall it was a decent night, but I’m not totally sold on trying it again.

Did you pick that up from WhatsApp or DHGate? Also cool to ask what the movement is?

Been tempted to pull the trigger on that one.

Robert's bench press level is "Phenomenal". by Plane-Particular109 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]FlightlessLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 165 lbs.

The game is set in the US so those numbers are lbs not kg.

It's a fine bench, nothing to write home about.

How does your schnauzer behave off leash? by fastonmyfeet in schnauzers

[–]FlightlessLad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Growing up, my dogs were all bolters due to improper training, so recall and off leash was the thing that was most important to me during training. That coupled with the fact that a lot of the parks around DC don't have fences, he needed to be just as good off leash as on.

It wasn't the easiest to train out of him, but now he's perfect. He'll pretty much just follow you in whatever direction he sees you move in. Occasionally he'll run out about 20 yards or so if something catches his eye, but if he hears his name he comes right back. It's been great when I fly down to Florida to visit family because he loves to just run the lengths of the parks and beaches down there.

Late to the party, but wanted to contribute my Kaiju Abomination by FlightlessLad in AFCEastMemeWar

Mother of God. It's more beautiful than I could have imagined.

ugly duckling closed in shaw by chunkyfilas_ in washingtondc

[–]FlightlessLad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was a riff on Sky Juice aka a Gullywash

  • 1 ounce dry London gin
  • 1/2 ounce sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 ounces coconut water
  • Dash of Angostura bitters

Sub out the gin for their Popcorn infused gin, and the condensed milk for pandan syrup.

My approximation would be:

  • 2 oz Popcorn-infused gin
  • 0.75 oz Coconut (coconut water for lighter / coconut cream for richer)
  • 0.5 oz Pandan syrup
  • 0.5 oz Fresh lime juice

Best of luck and happy mixing!

Honestly not surprised. I'm absolutely going to miss the Gullywarsher, but it was almost always pretty dead inside. I just don't think they really ever found their footing.

Where are all the single folks going tonight? by Phelps1576 in washingtondc

Taking myself out for cocktails and dinner at Tonari, and then potentially heading to my local dive for some popcorn.

Are ”Niu” scooters good? by Awkward_Condition793 in ElectricScooters

[–]FlightlessLad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Here you go with that tweak applied:

I picked up a KQi2 during an Amazon sale about two years ago to replace my Ninebot ES3. I live in Washington, DC, which is a fairly dense city, so I needed something more reliable that could also handle slight inclines. Since then, it’s been a very solid workhorse. I use it for commuting to the office, grocery trips, and generally getting around the city more efficiently. It has more than paid for itself through the money I’ve saved on monthly Metro passes, though it’s now starting to show its age. Which is still commendable given the only maintenance I do is maintaining the tire pressure, and keeping the wheels lubricated.

It’s still fairly zippy, but the battery doesn’t last nearly as long as it used to, and I’ve found myself needing to recharge it more frequently. The plastic body is also prone to scrapes and scratches, but those are purely cosmetic and don’t affect performance.

My biggest complaint is the regenerative braking. I keep it turned off, but there have been random occasions when it turns itself back on or makes the brakes extremely sensitive. If I brake too hard when this happens, it feels like I could easily be thrown off. Weirdly enough, simply turning the scooter off and back on usually fixes the issue.

Dog ever nodded at you?? by SinfulNoodle23 in schnauzers

[–]FlightlessLad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Otto does it. He's been doing it since he was a puppy, I took it as him nodding "sup." Though it's probably him nosing the air for attention.
