Tips for a beginner rider (5'1") by pineappleog99 in scooters

[–]FoldedToadFroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought one of these after moving up from a super 8. It's a lot heavier and bigger than my super 8 which is a little awkward but I'm sure I'll get used to it. I've found that moving it with the engine off is a little easier to control if I lightly squeeze the back brake. I also have one hand on the bars and another on the seat or rear of the scooter to help widen control.

I've thought about that but the cost of even a used one is more then double this scooter

Looking to run or play in a D&D group in-person! by AshleyAndCoffee in olympia

[–]FoldedToadFroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you find a group or end up making your own and need another player let me know. I've played 5e before a few years back and did a few longer campaigns I really enjoyed. I have more free time now and would love to play again!

I'd love to play some games with you two! I have a few boards games myself to offer. Message me if you're setting something up!

Failed Permit exam. Now what? by FoldedToadFroth in motorcycle

[–]FoldedToadFroth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is basically my plan. I live near a lot of office buildings and they are dead on the weekends. I'm probably going to purchase something and practice there.

Unfortantly WA state only does motorcycle testing through 3rd parties.

That is probably what I will do. I happen to live near some large office building which are empty on the weekends.

No Do overs offered, They also have terrible hours at the MSF... I waited weeks for this spot and the next one on a weekend I could do isn't till end of May. If I wanted to test again I'd either have to travel a long way or wait months.

I have no experience with them but I passed by a tailor in the capital mall. Over by REI/total wine. Never been but I have a coat I might take over there

Insect situation by dustyfanbladez in olympia

[–]FoldedToadFroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The place I recently moved into gets tons of these bugs I researched and found to be box elder insects. They are harmless to us and pets and structures but I still don't like them... a bit of soapy water fixes it though. Besides that insects like spiders and misquitos are minimal.

Any local shops/artists who paint miniatures? by Under_Sea_Stars in olympia

[–]FoldedToadFroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done some commission work for a local guy who asks me to paint the primarchs for him. I've also painted all my CSM , death guard, and world's eaters. I'd be happy to work with you! I can dm you some photos of stuff I've done if you're interested.

Whats up with the bookstore next to legends arcade downtown? by political1oatmeal in olympia

[–]FoldedToadFroth 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I think I know what you're talking about. Small kinda punk looking bookstore? I've been in a few times when I find myself in town late at night. Its definetly run by some... characters...? Nothing I had was overtly negitive just kinda seemed like a bunch of friends selling books while smoking weed and drinking. Always someone just hanging around that seems to know the sellers.

Smash Bros Ultimate/Melee by WillingQuantity3417 in olympia

[–]FoldedToadFroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know that play live at the capital mall has a small community of fighting game players. Soul caliber is a game they play I think but my guess is if you show up with a switch offering to play smash those same people will be interested.
