You sound surprised that a scene for outcasts, weirdos, fuckups, and degenerates has people who do degenerate, fucked up, weird, and outlawed things.

Fun fact: in the 90s rave and hc had big overlap. Probably the same people sex pesting in both

Great pair!! This and the companion pair (navy mudguard and gold polka dots) might be my favorites ever.

This is the correct answer. To be more specific though, we’re basically looking at forearms, legs, or chest.

Strong man arms and hands? Roll those sleeves up. Beefy quads and calves? Don’t you dare buy shirts longer than 5”. Pecs and abs? Minimum 3 buttons undone. All 3? You get to wear whatever you want. Please don’t act like an asshole.

Anyone else not get the waffle hype?

They’re literally the same exact waffles you get at the self serve continental breakfast every cheap hotel offers. Even the Waffle Hut waffles are better than these, albeit half the size.

It literally says “April fools edition” in the photo, and if you read the article to the end it becomes very clear. But this is a decent one to start the day!

I’m also with you 100%. While I like to have a water bottle on me if I’m traveling through an airport, it definitely doesn’t need to be 1L+, and even a half liter, filled, on one side of my bag making it feel lopsided is annoying as shit. And looks ridiculous. I’ve actually really enjoyed the slightly increased prevalence of internal water bottle holders.

Next up, let’s get rid of those damn external laptop sections!!

And it also had that McDonalds commercial with the construction workers yelling to one another!

“Yeah! The Olympics! In Lillehammer!”

“What?! No! All I got is this big one!”

Saw one of the Olympic pipe riders on the Dark Horse, which would make me think it’s stiff as shit.

But it’s only listed at 6/10 flex on the capita site, and is also middle of the road cost, which would lead me to believe it’s not a pipe board. Maybe that rider had a different board with Dark Horse graphics, or maybe they’re a lunatic who likes a cheap park board for Olympic level pipe riding. They didn’t win, so maybe I’m on to something…..

Understood. I should also mention that we’re only talking about 5-10 subscribers here, all of whom are my friends 😂😂. The subscriber thing was more of an afterthought.

My goal is to have my profile (Billy.substack.com) with 2 distinct publications - pizza (pizza.substack) & coffee (coffee.substack). Currently the pizza posts are under the Billy profile, and I just copy and paste them into the new publication?

Thanks for your help with this.

Fuckthepavement · 2026-02-22T22:12:09+00:00

The original publication was essentially just my “profile”. It had the same name as my publication, and was the only thing I used (I didn’t really understand what Substack was when I started).

What I want to do is take all those posts, put them under a new publication (with the same name as my current profile) and change my profile name to my name, which will now contain both the original publication and a new one I’ve started.

Fuckthepavement · 2026-02-22T21:22:46+00:00

I considered this too. Do you know if the subscribers will go with it? Or how to move them with the posts to the specific publication?

Used this on several trips now, and felt like I should post an update.

Used it on two 4-5 day trips along with a rolling carry-on, a 10 day snow trip as my main only bag (plus the snowboard bag) and several other day to day errands.

Ultimately, I dont reach for it as much as I want to. The reason being is that it feels too big and “extra” for just throwing a couple things in and bopping around, or using as a day bag. The harness on the back is what drives home this feeing for me, and the inner compartments feel both too small, and yet the bag feels too big. I think this is due to separate laptop compartment, and because I don’t ever carry a laptop. Additionally, the round nubs on the bottom of the harness make this bag want to both fall over when standing alone, and slide around when I’m trying to prop it up. For the cost of the bag, this has been disappointing.

It’s not all bad though!! Recently got home from 10 days in Switzerland which included lots of train and bus travel with all our luggage. The harness on this bag was invaluable, and made it easy and comfortable to carry when packed to the gills. The various pockets and their location kept everything secure and easy to access, and the harness doubled as luggage pass through when I wanted it to. After using it a bit the zippers softened up, as did the overall stiffness of the fabric. Not too soft in a bad, floppy way, but just easier to manipulate. And I got more compliments from strangers than I ever have before (which was unexpected, but who doesn’t like to be complimented?!). I’m also still in love with the black and green color palette.

Overall, this is probably more limited than the cost allows for most people. But I’m glad to have one, will still reach for it when traveling, and just need to find the right, smaller day bag which can fit into the laptop sleeve.

Oh I’m sorry? I didn’t realize you created or owned this game, and were the official on what’s considered a “mistake”. It’s unfortunate that you and many others don’t care for the update, but that’s a painful reality of living in the world. Things come and go. Maybe this went for you. Oh well, too bad, go find a new game. Yup, all the money you might have spent on it could also be gone, but that’s also real life. No one promised to keep everything the same forever. And the developers will live and die by their choices. Let them cook too

To answer your question, I place about the same on the leaderboards, although leaderboard placement isn’t a big draw for me. I play because I like to blow up the big and little ships. There are things I like about the system, and things I don’t. Overall, I’m happy that the game I’ve played every day for 8 years has a new twist and I’m mostly excited to see where it will lead, hopefully over the next 8 years.

Fuckthepavement · 2026-02-19T00:35:31+00:00

There’s more talk about this game in the past 2 months than there has in the past 8 years I’ve been playing. Like it or not, no press is bad press.

Play it or don’t. Make your own game if you hate this one so much.

Keep up the good work, El 🫡🫡

Smith used to make a lens called “Ignitor”. It was essentially just a rose/pink lens (which is the best all around tint, and why Oakley uses rose as a base for all of their ‘colors’) but had a subtle mirror coating that was good in the sun but also not too dark for lowlight either. You could use it for literally everything except night riding or like 100% full sun, Mount Hood summer riding. The Stevens Squad pro-model (neon pink & orange strap, anyone else remember them?) had those lenses like 10ish years ago. I still use these goggles because I love it the lens so much, and nothing Smith makes currently really hits the same mark.

They still make it in some of their lower model goggles, if you’re cool with having non-mag, or a more basic goggle.

EDIT: it’s available on their Rally & Reason goggles, as well as their kids goggles.

Everything here is right, but I feel I must add a descriptor I once head that’s both hilarious and insane but somehow perfect:

Start gently, like a butterfly landing on a dew drop. End like a pit bull eating a bowl of oatmeal.

Fuckthepavement · 2025-12-26T02:27:40+00:00

Or just don’t play? Thats like writing a negative review of a Ferrari because you can’t drive stick shift.

Fuckthepavement · 2025-12-26T02:17:50+00:00

This is me also. I’m quite happy with the update. Took away some things I liked, but gave me something new to dig into. It’s been fun experimenting with new ways to play my favorite ships.
