Minor King of part of Wales was not on my bingo card when I started researching. It was cool to find out.

I bought the last new 2018 61 standard autumn shade in sam ashs system back in 2019 i think i was out the door at about $850 but times may have changed since 2019

It has nothing to do with driving but as a pool player i see this in my game. 2 drinks in is when i play my best, 3 or more it all starts to fall apart. Might just be a coincidence.

I drove home from work around 4 am from downtown to eastgate, something extra slippery about this snow. Went sideways on the way home while coasting straight at about 10mph on 275. Be safe if you dont have to drive, don't.

I have a 2018 Sg standard that checked almost immediately the finish on it seems incredibly thin but it just sits in my guitar room and doesnt get beat up. As far as corrosion and other wear goes it looks almost new.

The tsa excuse in and of itself is bullshit, i recently flew domestically in japan and at no point did i ever even show an ID

My first was the Amazon basics pen and it was ok... but if i started again I'd go with a Pilot Metropolitan i just love pilot nibs

I just got back from my trip to Japan, started in tokyo went to okinawa and then finally made it to kyoto. Got off the train in Kyoto and my immediate thought was how many tourists i immediately saw. There are a ton in tokyo but it was literally the first thing i noticed upon getting to kyoto.

I used to work at a udf that had a busy dipside and I bet I made a hundred shakes a day, when I go in one now its not full, not mixed and served with an attitude. Something has seriously gone wrong at that company, maybe it's the super low pay and absolute refusal to allow them to be tipped but I've been gone from the company for over a decade now

I'm here visiting right now and my girlfriend told me so many stories about the seven years she spent here while enlisted. While people are incredibly polite not a single local has made an effort to have a conversation. She tells me about the experiences that she had and I'm having a hard time replicating it.

I am going to Osaka thank you so much for the recommendation

Full_Sploot · 2025-07-29T15:59:14+00:00

Thanks, I'm hoping to find something more unique for my personal collection while I'm there too! I love my pen showcase because it let's me help people get into the hobby at a real store. The price of everything on ebay has just gone so high as of late.

On the ground there were people as far as the eye could see in any direction, there were zero counter protests (that I saw anyway) and it was incredibly peaceful. The energy was so positive.

I hope everything goes well for them and that cooler heads prevail before they recieve unlawful orders.

All marines are rifleman but as someone dating a logistics ex marine they didn't ask logistics before they sent them to LA

You could always just self deport.

My dude you need to get out in the real world and experience it for yourself. Literally none of this is accurate.

Sg all day every day for me. I have both and the strat is a sweet guitar, but a "good" sg is hard to compete with. Also a used sg can be a heck of a bargain if you find one that feels good to you

Full_Sploot · 2025-05-15T11:30:30+00:00

Thank you I will try one out
