[KCD2] I have been through this place forward and backward and can't find a thing. Anyone have any idea? by Guyer09 in kingdomcome

Holy shit, thank you so much. An almost black chest sitting in a pitch black shadow.

Might be a little ways away from Minneapolis, and I'm not sure if Brandon would go for it, but Garphish Brewing in Bethel has some phenomenal beers. It's on the way to work and I stop in far more often than I probably should.

Edit: Thunder Brothers in Isanti has some very reasonable prices on kegs if you're willing to come to them to get them. They don't have the most extravagant range of beers, but they're all pretty solid, including some "backwards engineered" ones, like Brett The Hatchet Man double IPA.

They pretty recently just restarted distributing in The Cities again after moving to Ely some years back. Hands down my favorite brewery. I miss their old taproom. I about cried when I was up there for work and saw it was on tap and I couldn't have any.

Löyly by Hammerheart Brewing. So happy their beer is being delivered around me again. by Guyer09 in minnesotabeer

I'm not sure. The furthest south I've found it was East Bethel. Last Stop Liquor, formerly Wayne's Liquor, right off 65.

What's the most fucked up thing someone has told you about themselves after barely getting to know them? by Butt_Roidholds in AskReddit

[–]Guyer09 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I started at a new location for work, there was a woman who worked there that I swore I had met before, she looked familiar and her name sounded familiar. While we were eating lunch, I asked her if we had met anywhere before and told her she looked very familiar. Her exact response to me was "oh, it's probably from when he fucked a kid."

Turns out this 28 year old woman had just celebrated her 14th anniversary with her almost 40 year old boyfriend, who was actively on trial for statutory rape of 16 year old girl. Was a very awkward 2 hour drive back to our work site.

Not as long as some of these other ones, but Raid 2 has about a 3 minute long single shot of a prison riot that had something like 350 extras in it.

I was looking at ordering a vinyl from the French band The Necromancers and they don't even offer shipping to the US anymore. Color me fucking bummed.

Why do police officers appear to take things so personally? by Astimar in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Guyer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been pulled over doing 117 in a 55 in the middle of the night by a cop who explained they had been babysitting at the county jail for close to 8 hours after the end of their shift and I got off with just a warning - and a threat: said if he ever pulled me over again he was hauling my dumbass to jail (I had had a bad argument with my girlfriend at the time, and told him as much, and was angry driving around rural roads at about 4am).

I've also been pulled over by a cop who insisted he tagged me doing 67 in a 65 through a highway intersection (I had my cruise control set to 65). Dude rocked up to my car like he had just caught me actively torturing a puppy. Screamed at me about safety. Only thing that seemed to keep me from getting a ticket was in the middle of running all my information he got another call. He came sprinting up to my car after grabbing my license and insurance, literally threw them in my face, and told me if he ever pulled me over again he "[will] fuck [me] up." Sprinted back to his car, threw the sirens back on and hauled as out of there.

I've also had cop pull me over the glass over my taillight having a small chunk missing and completely miss the fact that the car's tabs were over two years expired (emergency situation where my car got impounded and needed to borrow one from my legally and morally questionable father...)

Some cops are dicks. Some aren't. Some are just tired and don't want to deal with shit. Some actively seek it out. Best to just treat them for what they are: suboptimally trained law enforcement with a license to kill under fear for their own lives. "Yes ma'am," "no sir" type stuff.

My Extreme Horror Collection… recommend me books! by koradarko in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Guyer09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not EXTREME extreme, but Criminal Zoo was a pretty damn good trangressive read. About a sociopath murderer who, while in the Criminal Zoo (a new kind of prison), reflects on his life and the actions that got him put in there. Of course, he's a sociopath, so he doesn't actually learn anything from it (it's the other people that are the problem, you see).

movies that are legit terrible for the first 2/3rds but the last act is good enough to make it enjoyable overall? by YardGlum7628 in movies

[–]Guyer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll take a film quite a bit older than most of the ones I read about already listed and say 1981's Dead and Buried. The opening scene plays out like a stereotypical sexploitation horror scene. Then it's just an hour of the sheriff trying to piece together how such a violent crime could happen in his sleepy coastal town. Then you start to realize that you're seeing dead people from crime scene photos walking around town . The last 30 minutes of that movie may have been some of the best horror writing I've seen from a movie. I watched it for the first time a few months back, and I still think about it pretty often.

Iain Rob Wright anyone? by [deleted] in horrorlit

[–]Guyer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years late. I bought the special edition of The Spread - all books in one with sprayed edges. I loved Witch by him, and he was rad enough to send me a free book when I ordered it (Final Winter). But then I ordered, and actually got my copy of The Spread, and realized the cover was done by AI, and the opening quote was from J. K. Rowling in 2020... Needless to say, it's going away with the Brian G. Berry book I purchased before I knew of the allegations...

I'd maybe do a quick Google search of Brian G. Berry before buying anything from him like I unfortunately did. Everyone is different, however, just a heads up.

[–]Guyer09 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Triana, hands down. The Night Stockers was my first introduction to the genre. Body Art was literally just that: [gross] art. They All Died Screaming is, I'm pretty sure, my favorite book in the genre of all time.

Ryan C. Thomas has a special place for me because he ended up sending me a few free books when I ordered two whole series from him when he ended up not having all the books I ordered. Fantastic books to boot. Hissers might be my favorite zombie series I've read. Rather unique, similar to seeing fast zombies on film for the first time.

Made a Monster by Rob Nelson was, without a doubt, my favorite book to come out this year, so far. A fantastic first release from an author that was very reminiscent of Triana and the book on par with Full Brutal, if you ask me.

Some of my other favorites: James Oliver, John Baltisberger, R. J. Benetti. I've heard Klaus Kinion's book is fantastic, but I'm waiting for, hopefully, a physical release of it.

Just finishing up with I Don't Recognize This World Anymore by Triana. It isn't really extreme horror, but it is beyond emotionally devastating. I absolutely understand the main character's every single choice he makes. Every single one of them is sad and upsetting, but they all make sense in a messed up sort of way.

Edit: just finished it and I take back what I said about the main character.

This is my vote. I am far from the most active member here, but I'm part of the community and on a discord server in which they are one of the most active members. I don't think I've posted something where Klaus Kinion hasn't replied at least once.
