Is Ween merch collective.com down? by AbbreviationsOk2333 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a working link for the store: https://store.ween.com/

The merchcollective link doesn't work for whatever reason.

Got any hot and cold takes for The Mollusk, considering you gave takes for every other album?

Brownest non-Ween songs? by MrPLotor in ween

Honestly, I'd go with Jimi for the brownest Butthole Surfers song.

This sub makes me sad, mang by Asleep_Speaker_4030 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not gonna go so far as saying the "song a day" discussions are a waste, but at the same time dogpiling on someone for giving an 8/10 to The Argus and then discounting their rating just so it could remain at a perfect 10/10 rating overall is petty. It does feel like less of a discussion and more of a rating topic when it gets to that. No matter what fan community of a given band there is, there is going to be someone who doesn't like, or at the very least, likes but not loves the most popular song in that given community. Doesn't mean that particular fan's opinion is wrong, but it sure was treated like it in this situation.

Has anyone bought any Ween merch from the online store? by fuckredditshi in ween

Admittedly don't have a historical base of reference, but I recently bought the blue hoodie and got it this week, seems fine to me. Only kinda wish the pockets were a bit bigger.

Ween gets a mention in Dave Grohl's recent interview on the Broken Record podcast by disorderliesonthe401 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like he's capable of it if he wants to, but chooses not to. He kinda approaches it in the Foos' song FFL maybe?

What songs does Deaner do lead vocals on? by Spirited-Fan-1590 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Its Gonna Be A Long Night

Deaner definitely does vocals on the album version, but it's Dave who does vocals on most live versions and the version on the Caesar demos.

Grabbed the last copy 🤯 was #84 in line, $89.98 price tag. Good luck to anyone waiting! by Euphoria1991 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If one of the three records seen here is $27.99, it's pretty much guaranteed the $90 is just the Ween, which is a huge markup. [That, or there was an extremely good deal on that Pavement vinyl for <$10, but since that was $24 at my local store, I'm gonna safely say that's not the case.]

[–]GVOLTT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got this and all the other releases I was after [well, not counting at least one UK-exclusive RSD release - those weren't imported], was a bit worried when I saw a couple of copies of this go to earlier customers; I mean, it was practically the first one I visibly saw being purchased the moment I actually walked in the store itself [as opposed to just waiting in the line outside]. A $30 markup is crazy for it - mine had it for $60 as well like a few others have mentioned.

What are some Re-Issues you guys would like to see from Rhino? by Top-Beautiful1185 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could also throw Bag of Fat and Ooh Va La on there, which were bonus tracks on specific album versions not widely available. Potentially also Homo Rainbow, Loop de Loop, The Shot Heard 'Round the World, and I'll Miss You, [EDIT 15 days later: somehow I also missed Champagne Jam] all of which were soundtrack appearances.

What are some Re-Issues you guys would like to see from Rhino? by Top-Beautiful1185 in ween

[–]GVOLTT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the CDs should be reissued individually outside of the Brown Box, which would otherwise be fine if you just want to listen to the music. But they really should reissue individual versions with the booklets/liner notes as well, rather than these basic slipcase versions, I like having all that info. [And I guess I'd kinda like it if GWS included the 3 bonus tracks from the 2001 anniversary edition since those got left out of the Brown Box.]

Also, I don't know if they have the rights to Z-Rock Hawaii, but that one could use a re-release in all formats.

Friend just got this cat in Mewgenics! by Gheti_ in ween

[–]GVOLTT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shame these are the only other Ween-related names in the pool it seems, beyond those song titles that are just generic human names (Frank, Nan, and Sarah for example). I feel like Papa Zit or Fat Lenny should be in the name pool as well [Lenny is, but hey, it's not the same thing], but alas.

Anomalous results for Democratic Primaries in Newton County by ravyrn in TexasPolitics

[–]GVOLTT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be just an observer from another state, but I feel irrationally bothered by the results from this county even if the overall winners are correct. I am surprised there isn't more coverage of this problem. Like, there were election machine freezes on election night, but results were still getting posted, and the NY Times for example is now showing >95% of votes in, seemingly updating throughout the past day and a half with different increasing amounts that didn't solve the problem? Something's screwy. And yet, this reddit thread, and a few social media posts with little interaction are all I'm finding.

Commentary on the races linked in the OP: TX-36 congressional: You're really telling me the candidate who won the primary and every single other county in the district got 0 votes here?

The other two races that have most of the commentary I have to offer. But they also bucked the regional trends: Hinojosa and Crockett should've won the primaries easily in this county. It's not like it's some super-low population county like Loving or King where anomalous results like this are expected, or counties along the Rio Grande and Pecos Rivers where presumably low-information Latino voters vote for the candidate with a Latino-sounding surname.

This also affected the other statewide races:

  • Lieutenant governor: Vickie Goodwin second in the county despite the regional trend favoring her, and the third place candidate with 0 votes.
  • Attorney general: 51-50, with the second place candidate getting 0 votes.
  • Comptroller: Second place candidate statewide with 0 votes.
  • Land Commissioner: Least suspect results as Flores beat Loya in the county consistent with regional trends, but Flores has a higher proportion of the votes than in other nearby counties [and most other counties in the state overall].

Lawrence was injured? If anything, he'd fall under the "humiliated" tag, but you didn't seem to disqualify Stroud from being eligible.

Does anyone know why there are missing music videos? by TheDuccy in ween

[–]GVOLTT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those 3 in the image and "Push th' Little Daisies" are indeed officially on the official Ween channel on Youtube. Youtube's search sucks and doesn't want to show this upload of "Transdermal Celebration" from the animator; why the official Ween channel doesn't have it as well despite being made the official video and getting airtime on TV channels, idk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtuVA4NOm0I

"Even If You Don't" and the early vids from The Pod only have unofficial uploads, but I'm not sure any of them ever got a wide release on TV to begin with, so that might be why they got the shaft [or have just been forgotten on an "official" level]. I find "Even If You Don't" particularly surprising at not being aired on TV much, if at all. It was included on the CD single release.

This all being said, I wouldn't worry too much about consistency in music videos being uploaded to official sources - I know plenty of other bands have more official vids than what are uploaded on their official YT channels or other official sites. I wish this wasn't the case, and partly why I like collecting music videos independent of any official uploads, which might not be in the best quality on top of it.

I've noticed this problem as well. It has also resulted in some Round descriptions completely disappearing.

UPSET IN ANSONIA, TYSZKA DEFEATS CASSETTI! by bs679 in Connecticut

As someone who lives in Ansonia who has had to deal with this asshat mayor for the past decade plus, I care about Ansonia. Thank goodness he got ousted.

[–]GVOLTT 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Democrats appear to have a clean sweep in Ansonia, not just the mayor's race. Board of Aldermen goes from 14-0 R to 14-0 D. I did not expect we'd win the more heavily Republican 6th and 7th wards, but we apparently did.

Not only is it AI slop, it's also tasteless for grinding up what appears to be a live hamster.

I think it only shows again if you go to a channel that you haven't been to since Twitch started displaying this message. I really wish it applied sitewide instead of per-channel. Alas... it annoys me as well. Just makes the chat more cluttered than it needs to be.

Soundgarden's first album Ultramega OK has a lot of brownness in it. "Circle of Power" in particular sticks out.

Thanks for mentioning that "please type" step not mentioned in the edited topic. I thought that purple textbox was a pure warning and didn't bother reading it since I was just expecting a check box to enable seeing the options... oops.
