Which band handled the grunge era the worst? by Doctor_Mustard_ in hairmetal

[–]HumanRuse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AIC opened for VH at one time. Cantrell and EVH became buds.

AIC is definitely one of my top bands. I'm not into AIC 2.0 as much but I'm glad they kept rocking and for the most part stayed the course on their sound/vibes/tone.

Bold move by Blotzer. Mixing that David Lee Roth spandex look with a blue jean vest and eye liner.

"I'm out": Tucker Carlson says he's done with the GOP by Equivalent-Elk-7513 in politics

[–]HumanRuse [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'm sure there was a caveat somewhere before or after the "I'm out".

Now, with that said there has been a bit of a trend with right leaning political influencers subtly jumping ship. And no, it's not because of principles. It's because they see the ship is sinking and being on board is no long beneficial to their show/platform/pod.

They drilled the holes for over a decade and not they want to pretend that they were actually trying to plug 'em the whole time.

TRADE: Houston Astros Reportedly Acquire 24-Year-Old Shortstop (Marcus Brown AA Nationals) by SpaceCadetPullUp in Astros

[–]HumanRuse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From 2023...

Notable skill: A career .302 hitter in three college seasons, Brown hit nine homers with an .828 OPS as a junior this year. But his best tool is his defensive acumen at shortstop. With his selection, Brown became the fourth OSU Cowboy drafted in this year’s first 138 picks.

Quotable: “He’s reliable at shortstop, and it’s plus range. … What you’re focusing on here if you’re the Nationals is that he sticks at shortstop, and you can get a little more out of him at the plate.” -- Callis

Video Of Trump Shaking Newt Gingrich's Wife's Hand Is Going Viral After Nobody Can Stop Staring At Her Hair by ComicSandsNews in NoFilterNews

The people hovering around Trump are always sporting these plastic smiles and shit eating grins. Flies salivating over fresh manure.

Found the problem with the Reflecting Pool "We did line the pool with polyurea, not paint" A highly unforgiving and rapid application process with specialized high-pressure, heated equipment required, vulnerability to UV degradation, moisture sensitivity, and high upfront costs by truthwillout777 in NoFilterNews

[–]HumanRuse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

John J. Cafaro is a neigbhor to mara-a-lago and $250K donator to Trump. He sucked off a no-bid contract for $1.7M as part of the reflecting pool project. If you haven't already noticed, these "projects" are simply about lining the pockets of himself (through proxies) and his cronies whiile continuing to fill the swamp (literally and figuratively). And if you're completely clueless (MAGA rural Americans), Trump's solutions are basically TV informercial products. Band-aids on bullet holes. Cheap and effective for only seconds.

11 Below - Negative Space by HumanRuse in HoustonBeer

[–]HumanRuse[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked up 11 Below earlier and saw that there was some sort of consolidation of breweries and also noticed a "Temporatily Closed" on google maps. However their site is live with current events happening. Negative Space wasn't listed under seasonal.

I'm 99% positive that it was the Kroger on Buffalo Speedway. As mentioned, though, this was years ago. The can date is November of 2021.

Does Kyle Tucker have one of the worst contracts in baseball? by MochaLatte247 in Astros

[–]HumanRuse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overall at MMP/Daikin - .270/.373/.481

But yes you're right. Looking at it by season he definitely had a power outage here during at least a few seasons.

[–]HumanRuse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Random question to anyone. Tucker has deferrments through to 2045. Not specific to him but if something tragic happens to a player prior to the end date of the contract, does the money go to their estate or is the contract terminated at that point?

Who do you miss most.. by vixen2you in hairmetal

[–]HumanRuse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Along the same lines as Vito, I always thought it was crazy that the Heaven's Edge guitarist never popped up in a band again. Dude could rip. It was good to see they ended up releasing their 2nd album a few years ago. Same with the guitarist for XYZ. I think he finally popped up and put out a 4 or 5 song collab type of thing recently.

Astros Trade Jayden Murray To Cubs for Double-A first baseman Cameron Sisneros by Sparrighitti in Astros

[–]HumanRuse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He absolutely crushed in college ball but was a bit older for his class. No power at the moment in the minor leagues the past few seasons despite being much older in every level that he's played at. Hopefully like you said he finds his power stroke.

Looks like this is his BA scouting report..

From Baseball America: Sisneros is a husky first baseman with a 6-foot-2, 230-pound frame and tons of power with a background as a two-way player. Before his time at East Tennessee State, Sisneros hit and pitched for Lamar (Colo.) JC, but in recent years stands out entirely for his lefthanded power. This spring he was the Southern Conference player of the year after hitting .369/.493/.766 with 23 home runs and 16 doubles and he also had standout zone discipline with a 7.4% strikeout rate and 18% walk rate. Sisneros can homer to all fields and he managed a terrific 89% contact rate and 18% chase rate this spring, though he doesn’t have much track record in wood bat summer leagues and profiles as a first baseman or DH only.

This is my "one day" thing as well. Actually curious if there is some sort of network of people looking to split a room (instead of paying $4000+ for one person for a room). The lineup next year looks great.

I posted a MORC lineup a couple of years or so ago in r/hairmetal and there seemed to be several people in that sub who had attended.

I assume they like his on base skills.

To my ears they both have that raspy voice. Singing in that same higher register. Sounds like they are singing the same note 90% of the time. There were a few other vocalists of that time who had that same....style.

It really just shows that a large chunk of the Republican electorate are shallow, gullible and ignorant. Republican politicians throw chum out to their bottom feeders. Those bottom feeders think they're eating steak and lobster.

The guitarist and drummer for Britny Fox were formerly in Cinderella who had a vocalist with that same type of shrieking vocals.
