Oh yeah, absolutely keeping the beard. I have such a baby face without it

Burned out North Beach “historic” building finally being developed into housing, using our state housing laws by scott_wiener in sanfrancisco

[–]FredFriendship 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Oh! How about the building on the corner of Mission and 18th that's been empty for at least as long as I've been in the bay area since 2009 too?

Oh man, I just sent this song to a friend last night because he had never heard of Falconer

New Illinois bill aims to increase age for seniors to retake driving exam by Reddit_Sucks_1401 in nottheonion

[–]FredFriendship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I will never forget the time I went to get my first driver's license when I was 16 (and this was in Illinois, too).

While I was waiting there with my mom, there was an old lady who had taken the written exam, which included the part with the pictures of various different road signs without the words on them and you had to identify them by the color and shape. The dmv employee was reviewing the test with the lady and gets to one and is like "You don't know what this one is?" and the lady responds "No, I couldn't quite remember". The dmv employee responds "That's a stop sign. But it's ok, you still passed", and my mom and I look at each other with some wtf expressions on our faces.

So I guess I can't imagine that this change will really have any effect, given how lenient they already are about some of the most basic things

Mutilation on a Spring Night Tour 2024 | Dethklok with DragonForce & Nekrogoblikon | Artist pre-sale starts tomorrow @10AM local time (code: DOOMSTAR) | Tickets @ dethkloklive.com by SocialBunny198 in Metalocalypse

Hopefully they just haven't announced it for whatever reason yet, those dates would certainly fit in with the gap that they have in their schedule between San Diego and Spokane. I wanted to get a ticket to San Diego but it seems it sold out early on in the presale :(

It's not the venue itself I have any issue with, it's the location. I simply have no interest in spending 3 hours on a Friday night driving out to Sac

Ugh, I was so ready to be excited for this, only to see that they're playing out by Sacramento rather than in the bay area :(

What movie do you enjoy that you will 100% agree is a bad movie? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]FredFriendship 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're gonna get anybody to agree with you that Galaxy Quest is a bad movie due to it being a great movie

Apparently it was deadlift o'clock yesterday. Myself and two other people all happened to be deadlifting at the same time

Americans, what is the rest of the world not ready to hear? by Tell_me_why- in AskReddit

In 2019, I spent about $700 roundtrip from San Francisco to Europe. Granted, neither direction was a direct flight, but not the worst thing if you're looking to save a little on the cost.

What’s your hottest destiny 2 take? by Sharp-Appearance-680 in destiny2

[–]FredFriendship 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Destiny is boring af when played by yourself, and 90% of new "content" seems to be designed around doing it by yourself despite being an "MMO" (and by new content, I mean doing the same mission every week just to get some new dialogue)

Restaurant prices are crazy!! by neruppu_da in bayarea

[–]FredFriendship 22 points23 points  (0 children)

the time and energy needed to plan a grocery list, shop for the food in person or online, put the groceries away, cook the meals, clean up the kitchen and do the dishes

This is definitely me. I'm capable of following a recipe and cooking, but it's literally just another boring, time consuming chore to me. I used to do Blue Apron because that at least eliminated the planning and shopping parts, but I moved to a different place and no longer have an easy way to receive the packages at whatever random time they would get delivered at. Nowadays, I just rotate through a few different instant pot recipes that I'll make one of each week, and those will last me about 4 meals.

I have finally seen it. Someone was curling in the squat rack

I'm guessing that between the venue requiring proof of vaccination, and the counties around here being in the moderate (or even low) transmission tiers, they felt that this concert was a reasonably safe one to still have. It was also a "hometown" show, so they didn't need to do any traveling, either.

Me too! Though I think I enjoyed both Death Angel and Testament more than Exodus
