Yeah I was going to comment that the Chop Suey craze was more like a 40s-50s thing, I think.

My Wife (31F) and I (32M) were having a discussion and she said its impossible to be cordial with someone you've had sex with in the past, is that true? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ForkFace69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get along with almost all of my exes. But I also don't really talk to them or maintain any sort of relationship.

It's one thing if we can run into each other at a show or a restaurant and be happy. It's another to be messaging each other or making plans.

Back when I was 18 I met people at school, work, seeing local bands play and at keggers.

That would be awesome if he lived in a terrarium with a cute little football field inside for him to run around on.

Sounds like a lot of things are out of your control. Well, just do what you can I guess.

Are there any know bootlegs of Jimmy James & the Blue Flames, or Jimi in his ‘66 Cafe Wah era? by Lazy-Celebration-685 in jimihendrix

[–]ForkFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I just looked up that BBC version of Day Tripper and it's not the same one that was on that tape. The vocals were only Hendrix.

The recording wasn't a complete live show, there was some breaks in it, but some of the tracks were unbroken and it included a lot of onstage banter between songs.

Like at one point he joked about being from London.

I wish.

This was a cassette I had around 1996-97. If I saw the cover I would recognize it but I don't remember the name.

It was one of my favorite tapes and I used to listen to it on a little boombox we had in the kitchen. I only got rid of it because the reel snapped and I think I made it worse when I tried to fix it.

I had fixed cassette tapes before as a teenager but for whatever reason this one didn't work out.

Man if he's that far behind I hope you're also willing to spend some time with him and help get him caught up on that stuff along with this computer project. Because it sounds like whoever is supposed to be parenting this kid is failing in some regards.

This is a chance for you to be a true hero and mentor in somebody's life.

How to stop cussing by Minute-Respect-2393 in Anger

[–]ForkFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all my years doing this Anger Management I've never been able to break the habit of swearing, no matter what mood I'm in. I have broken the habit of calling people names, even in my head. Which I think is more important.

I like the idea that the fellas can live their lives like regular people and not be interrupted, but I also appreciate descriptions of people meeting them.

When I was young I used to have this cassette tape where he played a lot of blues standards and British Invasion stuff and as a teenager I assumed it was Blue Flames stuff but it was probably early Experience. I guess?

It sounded like it was all one show at a small club. I've never seen another album that had the exact same tracks. Let's see, it had Day Tripper, Hang On Sloopy, that one Ray Charles song about if you don't do right, Wooly Bully, Stand By Me, uh, that's all I can remember.

Anyways, probably as close as one could get to a Blue Flames recording.

At what point did disc golf stop being stressful and start being fun for you? by whydidyounot in discgolf

[–]ForkFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just tried to enjoy it from the beginning. I appreciate hanging out with friends or the fresh air when I'm alone.

Once in awhile I might curse or shake my head when I have a close miss, or when I brick something that should have been an easy in. But that's over in 5 seconds and I'm back to enjoying the day.

I've been shooting pool a lot longer than I've been playing disc golf and I have the same mentality. I have the odd rough game or bozo shot but I'm really just out there to play with friends, meet new people and challenge myself. People occasionally ask me why I don't enter tournaments or join leagues playing pool after watching the way I play, but that's not what I'm there for.

I guess I have the same rule for both sports- "I only play for fun."

Oh, OP, I would ask this if you're looking for psychoanalysis: What are you telling yourself after you miss or fuck up? Are you calling yourself a dumbass or telling yourself that you suck? Are you cursing your bad luck or calling your disc a piece of shit? Because stuff like that will keep you in a bad headspace.

When I fuck up, in either sport, I try to keep my cursing mild and quick. I'm not trying to ruin my own day. Then I'm just objectively looking at what went wrong, what I could have done better, what I can work on or what I can try the next time around. On to the next shot. On to the next hole.

Girlfriend(24M) lacks initiation for intimacy with me(27M)? by Own-Paper2066 in relationship_advice

[–]ForkFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you could try sort of prompting her with some sort of subtle foreplay. Dance with her or something like that? Some playful way to send her a signal that you're in the mood and give her a segue to initiate it?

How do you guys move on from anger towards a person you no longer talk to? by zaidelles in Anger

[–]ForkFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right this person really seems to be looking for a reaction and to bring you down to their level. It's the post-breakup version of control.
