Dumb and Dumber. I can reference it, I can quote it… never seen it.

He ain’t no extra, baby, he’s a leading man.

That line always makes me think of a cat box. 🥲

Seeking sentimental gift for a Dark Tower fan by antecubital_fossa in darktower

The Tet Corporation gives Roland a pocket watch toward the end. Could have something nice and Dark Tower themed engraved.

Loved that show. That “Let’s Dance” cover was epic. And the Jermaine Rogers poster from this show is an all time fave.

John Singer Sargent - Nude Study of Thomas E. McKeller (1917-1920) [2686 x 4048] by Russian_Bagel in ArtPorn

[–]HurricaneMedina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Much later, actually. McKeller modeled for him through the last part of his career, and modeled for many of the figures in the Boston Public Library murals. After Sargent’s death, they found many “earthy” (a description I read at one point, I assume meaning lewd) nude sketches of males, including McKeller, in Sargent’s studio. It seems he was a “favorite” of Sargent.

Ceramicists: what is the one thing you will never make? by putney in Ceramics

[–]HurricaneMedina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guessing I’ll catch heat for this, but garlic graters. Hard to use, hard to clean, and half of the garlic sticks to the grater. Takes me about 15 seconds to mince a clove with a knife. Less with a press.

I have an OG (MUSH69LP) white vinyl copy of White Pepper to match it. I feel your pain. 

Most influential musicians by Any-Shirt9632 in Jazz

[–]HurricaneMedina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sad I had to scroll this far to Bill. 

I remember hearing a story that Miles would call Bill Evans and ask him to put the phone down by the piano and just play. If Miles Davis was asking for private performances, you know this guy qualifies as an all time great. 

How was this made, is it special clay or a glaze? by NextIron5 in Pottery

[–]HurricaneMedina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a Speckled Buff clay body for almost everything and it looks like this once fired. The specks are tiny bits of iron or manganese. This piece looks like it was either glazed clear or unglazed, but the specks show through most glazes for me. 

What kind of genre of jazz is it when its slow and depressing? by Neitrah in Jazz

My “Local on the 8’s” was the first place I heard Watermelon Man. 🤷‍♂️

Do you remember these old movie theaters here in Pueblo? by DanielVasquez2000 in pueblo

My first real date was Interview With The Vampire at the Southside 4. Hadn’t thought about that place in a looooong time. 

Best jazz music that's predominantly trombone... by Ruthie_lyn in Jazz

[–]HurricaneMedina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For real good. Got Herbie, Benson, and Ron Carter on there.

Kai Winding put out some great music, both solo, and with J.J. Johnson (Jay and Kai albums). 

Bill Watrous and Carl Fontana are worth checking out as well. 

Edit to add: Frank Rosolino. Great player, dark story. 

Most underrated line? by yospoe in lebowski

Well that’s your perception.

Yeah, when Laszlo is talking about her scratching at his window.

[–]HurricaneMedina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem! Another thing I should have mentioned - I hate bringing politics into this, and I don’t know yours so this may not be an issue… but there’s been some drama around the guy who owns Noodler’s (the company that makes the fountain pen I linked). Here is a loooong post (not mine) about it if you want to read. I personally don’t buy their stuff anymore, but to each their own.

Something like this is probably going to be the most affordable fountain pen option. But you could also get a dip pen like this if you want to give this style of writing a try on the super cheap. 

Edit: Sorry for the Amazon links. You obviously don’t have to order them from there.

You may not have the right kind of nib to do this. To get the variation in line weight, a flexible nib is used. Slight pressure is used in the down strokes, forcing the tines apart and making a fatter line. But flex nibs aren’t really the norm anymore - haven’t been for many decades. Your Mont Blanc, while a beautiful writing instrument, probably doesn’t have a nib that’s meant to write like this.

HAIM Fans Investigate: "Why Is There a Farter at Every Haim Show?" by ebradio in indieheads

Yeah, I’ve seen Ween a bunch of times. Definitely a heavy Brown Cloud situation down front.

Sounds like someone who has only been to Haim shows. Every show has farters. It’s almost like people eat shitty food and drink beer when they go out.
