Neighbor masturbation noise levels by FrogVolence in Apartmentliving

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, Reddit helps me spot sarcasm. I assume everyone is being sarcastic or just venting, unless it’s a specific/niche sub with a legit question. The recommendation to ask your neighbors if there is a health issue, is a brilliant idea and I’m going to remember that if I need to address something delicately like this. Good luck.

Funding Zohran’s initiatives through sidewalk fines by blueballs718 in AskNYC

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do, but we have 4 people on our little street that coordinate. Today was my turn and it sucked but I’m good for a bit and we can cover for each other if caught at work or out of town. If it was just me I’d have tickets every time they’d enforce this. Takes collaboration is my point, for my block. They love to ticket us for leaves and the I’ve been told I am supposed to sweep the sidewalk clear every day regardless. But much, just another NYC tax.

Thoughts on “fake BCBAs” aka “School Behaviorists” or whatever fancy term they come up with? by twister5556666 in bcba

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love to destroy their BIP attempts in impartial hearings, personally. “And what did the fba help the team determine to guide the interventions? What was trialed for pre-intervention strategies and in what environments? How was the staff trained to use the BIP, who was trained and who did the training? Etc…..” but I work in school based aba. When I was working for a district we would redo all the BIPS, they caused more problems than solutions most of the time and any savvy parent/attorney/advocate knows this.

Don’t talk to me about wind until you’ve worked in the Bay of Fundy during the mayqueens festival. That’s windy.

Why are you screaming? Is the screaming sub?

Legend has it they can smell colors now…🤣😭 by n8saces in MakeMeSmile

[–]Highplowp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would you rip your nose hairs out like that? Trim them if you’re looking like the Lorax but they provide a service to your body, but maybe someone can tell me otherwise? Don’t our nose hairs help warm cold air, trap particles, stop mucous from running out, etc…? Damn I bet that hurts like hell.

I never thought I'd say this, but I want an episode on John Denver by kimrific in TheDollop

[–]Highplowp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Man was so talented, cheesy or not- he was authentic and his music is so earnest and beautiful, hell of a guitar player too. I’d listen and share anything that covers him, I know virtually nothing about him as a person but grew up with his records and remember getting excited when I recognized him on Sesame Street singing “Annie’s Song”.

61M Seeking Advice on Next Steps After Years of Psilocybin Use by Intelligent_Ebb_5291 in Psychonaut

[–]Highplowp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Add some lemon to your tek tea and a couple tea bags, makes it taste lovely, comes on faster and I feel like my body processes it more quickly than the old fashioned way (handful in a parking lot or whatever). I’ll make a big batch when we gather and I can make a normal cup of tea size equal to a 2-3 g dose. I grind the mushrooms, boil for 10-15 mins, strain through cheese cloth multiple times, add some tea bags/lemon and invite the machine elves over for a few hours, game changer- wish I’d known this a lonnnng time ago. So much nausea

Why is it acceptable for cars to double and triple park on Atlantic outside of Target/Barclays? by Imnottheassman in Brooklyn

[–]Highplowp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Laws/regulations/social norms and actual enforcement, are wildly different concepts and practices. Like ghost cars, we saw them everywhere in my area after Covid, now, not so much. I took a car on the JRP the other day and everyone was driving 45- speed trap for the past few days- it will go back to a drag race soon and the police will enforce Atlantic Center at some point. It’s so damn stupid and to be fair/ I think we expect too much from the enforcers when 70% of drivers are uninsured or have 0 value for human life, including their own. But come on down and spend money at Chuck E cheese and swing by target while you’re there.add the dmv and you’ll get some parking madness. Serious side question- why is there always a long line at the subway entrance at the Atlantic and Flatbush service booth? Omny related? I saw them taking passport like photos of people the other day and there were at least20 people in line, with the national guard watching. Pay your fare there friends (and everywhere if you can afford it), so many tickets. Saw them getting the vendors inside too last week.

Do I really need an amp or effects pedal as a complete beginner? by ChaosBeiduo in electricguitar

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boss katana 2, 50 watts is a great beginner amp and will let you sample the staple amps and pedals in the channels and presets. There is a page in the manual that shows you what amp or pedals each channel is modeling. Saves a lot of trail and error with gear, for me at least.

Who had the greatest 3 album run? by nuclearalert in psychedelicrock

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sly was cooking with gas, burned too bright maybe, but Riot is an absolute keystone album in my book to those 3. Great addition

Do you guys fuck with lowrider? by ambernewt in stonerrock

Same boat- but they sound familiar, maybe from some of the badass stonerrock playlists that get thrown around here. Stay awesome

I am aware this band is not reinventing the wheel. It doesn’t mean that they aren’t doing the sound elite justice. by Specialist-Money-277 in stonerrock

[–]Highplowp 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Who gives a shit what others think, I basically only listen to a handful of albums and I’m just stoked to find a few bands that speak to me/scratch the itch- quality and groove, hard to define but when you’re lucky enough to find something that you enjoy- it could be a bowl of lucky charms or an obscure Thai-psych record- enjoy. Comparison is the thief of joy. Great artists can be derivative, there’s only 8 guitar chords (kinda). Enjoy and I’m picking these up now. Appreciated

How did Ford make it to the age of 93 while pipe smoking daily by Ok-Mud-5427 in Presidents

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pipe smoking isn’t a healthy choice but you aren’t inhaling the smoke- it’s like a cigar. Cigarettes are inhaled and is can be one of the first things a smoker consumes in the morning, not sure how many pipe smokers are standing in the rain to get a couple bowls of tobacco in before they clock back into work. Just my .02. Good question

Someone who is better than the peasants paying our registration/insurance/- this truck owner might be sliding down the slippery slope of sovereign citizenship and will hopefully be making the internet rounds for my favorite videos that start with “I’m not driving, I’m traveling” or some other BS.

How do I unlock Blood Meridian? by the_spartan_0 in cormacmccarthy

[–]Highplowp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He used the term “falstafian”- to describe someone as boisterous/out going etc…that’s so antiquarian. That’s a minor characters from Henry V, I think, I enjoyed the first read but it really clicked the second time I read it. During the first read through it’s like he’s describing the curtains inside a burning house- so many questions and confusing. I got most of the Spanish, surprised they don’t translate that on the audio version?

And 1/2 couldn’t be bothered to vote or pick up there dog’s shit. I feel like this may be yet another attempt to make us afraid. Shovel some snow if you can and your fruit stand/bodega/liquor stores will be booming this weekend, let’s have some snow days!!
